Of those working less than 50 hours during the busiest week of the year, two-thirds worked from 40 to 49 hours; about one-fifth of all the workers worked from less than 10 to 39 hours during the busiest week in the year. Xo piecework- ers were found working more than 54 hours during 1913 among the 333 employees for whom records were obtaiaed. While the number of workers for which these figures are given is comparatively small, the figures may be accepted as fairly representative of the industry, since they were obtained from 22 factories employing a total of about 900 workers, two-thirds of whom were employed in 11 association shops and one-third in 11 nonassociation shops.
