STATE LAWS ARE MISLEADING
some Foundation for Charges OF
PeOnRge Exists Vow in the
south.

WASHINGTON. Dec. 2-1n a report TO
the attorney general concerning his find-
ings relating TO peonage IN the south, As
sstant Attorney General Charles w. Rus
sell makes strong recommendation that
the federal statute relating to slavery be
amended IN a manner which VIII destroy
all doubt as to the incoming OF "invol-
untary servituGe' as set forth therein. He
also suggests changes in state laws
1T is hoped said Mr.. Russell 'that
an enlightened self-interest and the de-
mand for labor made necessary by the
expansion Of old industries and the In
PRODUCTION Of new will lead to the amend
ment or repeal Of the state laws which
are the chief support Of peonage prac-
tees
These state laws take various forms
and are used in various ways to uphold
peonage and other kinds Of Involuntary
servitude. Some OF them are vaErSncy
laws, SOME contract labor or employnlen
laws. Some fraudulent pretense or false
promise laws, and there are divers others.
Some few Of those in question, such as alb
scondins debtor laws, labor enticing and
board bill laws were not originally passed
to enslave workmen, but in view of the
use 70 which they are put need amendment
in order that they cannot be so abused.
These laws are used to threaten work
men who, having been defrauded into go
ing to an employer by false reports as TO
the conditions OF employment and the sur
roundings naturally become dissatisfied as
soon as they find how they have been de-
frauded. They are used before juries and
the local public TO hold the poems up as
law-breakers and dishonest persons seek
ing to avoid their just obligations, and to
th,A
ants accused Of peonage should not be
convicted for enforcing stin less for
threatening TO enforce, the laws OF their
state.
Whether constitutional or unconstitu-
tional they should all be wiped out or so
amended as to be harmless for the purpose
of enslaving workmen."
