The city OF Providence has spent thou
sands OF dollars In an endeavor 10 have
served 10 the people pure milk.
II has obtained from the general as
sembly all the legislation that could be
squeezed out OF that body which would
permit of the punishment of those who
tamper with the milk that is offered for
sale
II has asked for even more stringent
laws than those which were allowed 20
get by; but has met with flat refusal
owing TO the opposition brought 20 bear
by milk producers and shippers.
All this has been done for the public
good and public health-nothing more;
After the chalk and water and the
burned sugar adulterauon had been
pretty thoroughly stamped out there
was found that new and a dangerous
method OF treating milk had been re
sorted to--that OF preserving the fluld
for an indifinite period.
Ry the Introduction OF a few drops OF
formaldehyde into can OF milk the

that the milk department has put forth

Several dealers have been prosecuted for
using the formaldehyde: stu that has not

CHILD LABOR
BILL IS NOT
OPPOSED

There was hearing this afternoon
an act in amendment OF chapter 64 Of
the general laws. which act relates to
"truant children" The act IL designed
to make good the failure of the recently
passed child labor law to provide for an
educational qualification
The act provides that after Dec. 81,
1905, no minor child under II years of
age shall be allowed 10 labor unless the
child shall be able TO read and write
simple English sentences. The act fur
ther provides for other children Of an
age over Il years and fixing a later date
for other portions OF the law to go into
effect.
Senator Dyer said that the act would be
long step In placing the state Of
Rhode Island where II belonged. He said
that after the Spanish war this govern
ment proceeded TO establish schools in its
new possessions and there was no reason
why the state should not do something
for itself. He told something about tho
large amount Of illiteracy IN this state
and he believed this act would give cred
table results.
Prof Gardiner. speaking OF the Hitter
acv ~ this state said that II was the
worst state in the north and west He
believed this was not only unfortunate.
but IL was also dangerous. He thought
the recently passed child labor act had
produced some good results. but he be-
ieved that the passage OF this act would
make a great advance He thought that
the state had a right to demand all thu
children OF the state should be able "a
read and write the English language
Truant Officer whitssmore OF Provi-
dence explained certain features OF the
truant law and the factory inspection
law
Factory Inspector J Ellery Hudson
favored the passage OF law which would
produce the results aimed at in this act.
Several other parties favored the pass
age OF the act and no one appeared ia
opposs a.
