ton. 1t is true that each state must
own way, but thorough official in
yestigation OF the matter, with the re-
suits published broadcast, would great
ly help toward arousing the public con-
science and securing unity of state
action in the matter. There is, how
ever, one law on the subject which
should be enacted Immediately, be-
cause there is no need for an investiga-
ton in reference thereto. and the fail
ure to enact it is discreditable to the
national government. A drastic and
thoroughgoing child labor law should
be enacted for the District of Colum-
bia and the territories.
Employers Liability.
Among the excellent laws which the
congress passed at the last session was
an employers liability law 1t was a
marked step in advance to get the
recognition of employers liability on
the statute books, but the law did not
go far enough. In spite of all precau-
tions exercised by employers, there are
unavoidable accidents and even deaths
involved in nearly every line of busi-
ness connected with the mechanic arts.
This inevitable sacrifice of life may
be reduced TO a minimum, but it cam
not be completely eliminated. 1t is n
great social injustice to compel the
employee, or, rather, the family Of the
killed or disabled victim, to bear the
entire burden of such an inevita BILE
sacrifice In other words. society
shirks its duty by laying the whole
cost on the victim, whereas the injury
comes from what may be called the
legitimate risks of the trade Com
pensation for accidents or deaths due
IN any line of industry to the actual
conditions under which that industry
is carried on should be paid by that
portion of the community for the ben
eft of which the industry is carried
on-that is. by those who profit by the
industry. If the entire trade risk Is
placed upon the employer he will
promptly and properly add it to the
legitimate cost of production and as
Sess it proportionately upon the con-
sumers of his commodity. 1t is there
fore clear TO my mind that the law
should place this entire risk Of
trade" upon the employer. Neither the
federal law nor. as far as 1 am in
formed. the state laws dealing with
the question of employers liability are
sufficiently thoroughgoing. The fed
eral law should of course include en-
ployees I'm navy yards, arsenals and
the like.

SEVERAL 'DoN'rs" FOR SUMMER
Timely Suggestions For the Season
of Summer.

While Americus people rarely die,
except of extreme age, it is well to
exercise due care during the sultry
season now approaching. The health
authorities will take care of the city
and the people can then easily take
care of themselves-if they will, Keep
the blood clean and circulating ar
the rest of the body will take care of
itself. Cut down your meat ration for
week, Become q vegetarian for
seven days. Drink nothing but water
or lemonade. Breathe deeply. Look
out for the stomach. Keep the tongue
clean Relax when you go to bed
Don't worry, Be pleasant. And let
medicine alone.
