MIR. MURPHY IN ATLANTA.
Montgomerian Delivers an Address
 on Child and Labor.

SSS
 on Child and Labor.
 Atlanta, May 9.-The topic of the even ing session of the Convention of Charities and Corrections was Destitute Children. truancy, child-labor and recreation"
 Hugh F. Fox of Bayonne, N. J., pre- sided over the session. and addresses were delivered by Miss Jane Addams of the Hull House Social Settlement, Chicago; former Secretary of the Interior Hoke Smith of Atlanta; and Edgar Gardner Murphy of Montgomery, Alabama.
 MT. Murphy spoke on Child Labor as a National Problem" He said in part:
 Child labor laws are in many instances far from adequate In some States, they represent the effort to re-affirm and re- enforce the purpose of older statutes: in other localities. they represent the first explicit recognition of the people of State responsibility toward the defenseless ele- ments of an industrial society, toward the potential citizenship of the industrial child. In all cases, however, whether in response to the demand for law enforce ment, or for law enactment, or for both, this country of ours has had a heart and 1t has had sound heart-a heart which has wrought its charities in discretion; and vet, amid all the turmoil of it's busy and strident pre-occupat ations, it has found at least a little time for the appeal of the children of the workers. Contrasting the legislative victories of the present (victories so quietly won) with the long struggle of the heroic Shaftesbury, you have the difference-the signal and graci- ous difference-between this country and that
