Edwin Chadwick (1800-1890) had taken an active part in the reform of the Poor Law and in factory legislation before he
became secretary to a commission investigating sanitary conditions and means of improving them. The Commission's
report, of which the summary is given below, is the third of the great reports of this epoch. The following material comes
from Report...from the Poor Law Commissioners on an Inquiry into the Sanitary Conditions of the Labouring Population of
Great Britain [online source]. London, 1842, pp. 369-372.]
“That the various forms of epidemic, endemic, and other disease caused, or aggravated, or propagated chiefly amongst
the labouring classes by atmospheric impurities produced by decomposing animal and vegetable substances, by damp
and filth, and close and overcrowded dwellings prevail amongst the population in every part of the kingdom, whether
dwelling in separate houses, in rural villages, in small towns, in the larger towns — as they have been found to prevail in
the lowest districts of the metropolis.
That such disease, wherever its attacks are frequent, is always found in connexion with the physical circumstances above
specified, and that where those circumstances are removed by drainage, proper cleansing, better ventilation, and other
means of diminishing atmospheric impurity, the frequency and intensity of such disease is abated; and where the removal
of the noxious agencies appears to be complete, such disease almost entirely disappears.”
Source #2 The Physical Deterioration of the Textile Workers
John Fielden, although himself a Lancashire factory owner, was one of the staunchest fighters for protective legislation for
the cotton worker.
“Any man who has stood at twelve o'clock at the single narrow door-way, which serves as the place of exit for the hands
employed in the great cotton-mills, must acknowledge, that an uglier set of men and women, of boys and girls, taking
them in the mass, it would be impossible to congregate in a smaller compass. Their complexion is sallow and pallid--with
a peculiar flatness of feature, caused by the want of a proper quantity of adipose substance to cushion out the cheeks.
Their stature low--the average height of four hundred men, measured at different times, and different places, being five
feet six inches. Their limbs slender, and playing badly and ungracefully. A very general bowing of the legs. Great numbers
of girls and women walking lamely or awkwardly, with raised chests and spinal flexures. Nearly all have flat feet,
accompanied with a down-tread, differing very widely from the elasticity of action in the foot and ankle, attendant upon
perfect formation. Hair thin and straight--many of the men having but little beard, and that in patches of a few hairs, much
resembling its growth among the red men of America. A spiritless and dejected air, a sprawling and wide action of the
legs, and an appearance, taken as a whole, giving the world but "little assurance of a man," or if so, "most sadly cheated
of his fair proportions..."
“Factory labour is a species of work, in some respects singularly unfitted for children. Cooped up in a heated atmosphere,
debarred the necessary exercise, remaining in one position for a series of hours, one set or system of muscles alone
called into activity, it cannot be wondered at--that its effects are injurious to the physical growth of a child. Where the bony
system is still imperfect, the vertical position it is compelled to retain, influences its direction; the spinal column bends
beneath the weight of the head, bulges out laterally, or is dragged forward by the weight of the parts composing the chest,
the pelvis yields beneath the opposing pressure downwards, and the resistance given by the thigh-bones; its capacity is
lessened, sometimes more and sometimes less; the legs curve, and the whole body loses height, in consequence of this
general yielding and bending of its parts.”

Thus it also has its two sides. Let us leave alone the bad side and talk about the good side of slavery. Needless to say, we are dealing only with direct slavery, with Negro slavery in Surinam, in Brazil, in the Southern States of North America.
Direct slavery is just as much the pivot of bourgeois industry as machinery, credits, etc. Without slavery you have no cotton; without cotton you have no modern industry. It is slavery that gave the colonies their value; it is the colonies that created world trade, and it is world trade that is the precondition of large-scale industry. Thus slavery is an economic category of the greatest importance."
