to go on record in the strongest posi-

latures, for the purpose of doing away
lieve that the recent action of the leg
islature of Georgia, state which leads
the New South industrially, in placing
on it's statute books a child labor law
which contemplates the gradual adop-
ton of standard apprOximatfng that
of the best legislation either north or
south. makes it now incumbent on
congress to provide an adequate child
labor law for the District of Columbia
and the territories. With the single
exception of Nevada, the District or
Columbia and the territories are the
only American communities which
have no legislation at all on this sub
ject Suitable action by congress for
the area over which it has exclusive
jurisdiction will speedily bring those
states where protection for children is
inadequate or merely nominal to a re-
alization of their duty to improve their
legislation and to render it's enforce
