This historical document presents the hearings conducted by the House Committee on Labor regarding H.R. 10241 in March of 1922. The focus of these hearings is 'Convict Labor,' a contentious issue involving the employment of prisoners. The testimonies and discussions within offer a detailed look into the perspectives, arguments, and concerns surrounding convict labor practices in the United States during that era. Researchers and historians interested in labor history, legal history, or the history of the American penal system will find this volume a valuable resource. It provides primary source material reflecting the social and economic dynamics of the time and the ongoing debate about the ethics and practicalities of using convict labor.
