The Assembly passed a bill which
prevents the use of the United States
flag for commercial purposes.
Mr.. Hillery introduced a bill appro-
priating S25, 900 for the purpose of re-
imbursing Morris, Warren. Sussex and
Hunterdon counties for moneys eX-
pended on special election for Congress-
man and also one authorizing the pay
ment of the amount upon the filing OF
itemized expense account.
The house devoted very large pol-
tion of its time to discussing the child
labor bill, which was finally amended
and ordered reprinted, when it will
come up ON third reading The meas :
ure came up in the form of commit :
tee substitute to house bills and IS.
providing that no boys uner IA years OF
age or girls under l6 shall be employed
in factories, workshops or mines.
The bill was opposed on third read
wing by Mr. Scovel, who said that while
it was all right in the main, yet it dc
prived newsboys from making living
1t should be amended, he suggested.
by providing that children should be
prohibited from selling papers during
school hours or after 7.30 p. m.
Mr.. Van Blarcom defended the bill.
and said it protected the children o
lazy and INDECENT parents. The bill
now provides that children under 10
years of age shall not peddle papers
between the hours of 7 p. m. and $50
a. m.
Mr.. Swackhamerurged that the chill
dren be protected and said the bill
could not be improved upon if held till
doomsday. The bill not only prevent S
tots from selling newspapers, but keeps
children of tender years out Of the fact :
cries and prevents them from becom-
ing beasts Of burden for greedy task
masters.
Mr.. Scovel made another plea for the
newsboys and urged the bill Is defeat,
Notwithstanding the 'spasm'' of the
''tall sycamore from Somerset tMr.
Swackhamer). He also moved that it
be placed back on second reading for
