creased. The appropriations for all
are larger than ever before. The
people will be called upon, therefore,
to pay unusually heavy taxes to meet
this increased expenditure. We do
not believe. that in addition to this,
they should also be required to bear
other entirely new burdens.
II the legislature had provided
some new sources of revenue, as
every one confidently expected It
would do, by adopting some such
measure as that recommended by the
state tax commission, which would
have raised revenue from various
forms OF wealth that are now con-
tributing little or nothing, so that
the added expense would not have
come out OF the pockets OF those who
are already paying all and more
than their full share, then there
could have been little objection to
anything for which there was a real
need. w, believe that It VIII be rec
ognized by all thinking people as
sound economic doctrine that no new
avenues for the expenditure of public
funds should be opened until new
sources of revenue shall have been
provided.
IL there were any pressing public
demand for these armories, II the
necessary work OF any established
institution were going to be interfer-
ed with through the failure OF this
law to become operative. then there
might be some justification for ask
ing the people to tax themselves fur
ther. But what are the facts? In
some OF the towns mentioned In this
bill there is no organization of the
militia at present. In such cases
there are probably companies OF mi
llltla which would like better quar-
ters. There also are many farmers
OF the state who need better build
ings, better accommodations for their
stock, better provisions OF the CON-
forts and actual necessities OF life for
their families. better schools for their
children, better surroundings for

hope that the petitions will be in the

time this issue OF the Bulletin
reaches its readers. AS soon as they
are received each gange should at

necessary as all petitions must be

working diligently through all sub

In Nebraska the need Of child labor
legislation is anticipatory rather than
remedial. There is no complaint of
injury to any considerable number of
children in Nebraska, mainly because
the child labor III the state is almost
exclusively healthful agricultural labor
Of sort that the anti-child labor ad-
Vocates find no fault with. There are
few enterprises in the state that will
be embarrassed by a ra tional child
labor law. Now is a 1ood time te
enact such regulations, as will in the
long run be needed in order that other
enterprises may not base their estab-
Iishmcnt on labor considerations that
may later have to be changed.
The supreme Importance Of protect
ing the children from being dwarfed
or stunted in body and mind by over
work and harmful conditions of
work should be the determining idea
in the drafting Of laws. This does
not imply prohibition Of child labor as
such. AS some Of the critics of child
labor laws observe, idleness during
vacation periods can easily be as
harmful as OverWork. 1t should be
possible to efface the evils of child
labor without substituting other evils
as bad or nearly so. That is where
the demand comes for common sense
and skill in drafting child labor laws
1t should not be necessary to add
that rigid enforcement of the compul-
sorry education laws, with such i'm
provement in the latter as experience
may suggest, is absolutely necessary
to the efficiency OF any child labor
Legislation.
