The next bill taken up prohibited
the employment of children under 1e
years of age in factories on certain
specified machinery such as saws
wood working machines, power press
es, pickers in textile mills, certain
paper making machinery and In the
manufacture of explosives and In dis
tilIeries. Mayor Willard c. Fisher OF
Middletown began the advocacy of the
bill, but had not gone far before he
was told by Mr.. Gross that the manu-
facturers were not opposed to it In
its present form. E. Kent Hubbard
of Middletown seemed bit anxious
as to the matter Of pickers in cotton
mills but was evidently treasured by
the other manufacturers. All of them
seemed to agree that the employment
of children under 16 years was not
to their taste.
Miss Mary c. Welles Of Newington
speaking for the Consumers League
favored the bin She had with her
an exhibit which was not placed in
evidence but which was a boy about
II years old who had lost a forefingeI
recently, while at work in a factory.
H. Riley of Danbury, for the G. Z. O
of that city, also went on record In
favor of the bill.
The last bill, defining and penaliz-
ing blacklisting, was discussed in a
pretty informal manner as another
hearing will be given upon it. Mr..
Chandler of the committee said he had
drafted it as a result of becoming ac-
quainted with a man who was vic
tim of blacklisting. Mr.. Chandler ex-
pressed himself strongly opposed to
blacklisting on the one hand and the
secondary boycott on the other. Mr..
Gross discussed the matter with him
contending that the existing black
listing law is adequate and the hear
ing will be reassigned.

VOICES OF THE PAST.

There's a sweet voice that come:
floating,
On the waves of the soft Summer
air
Back DER the past it seems drifting
To the side of my old arm chair.
AS we sat there alone in the moon
light,
And planned for the days ne'er to be,
With hands clasped tight, it seemed
that no night,
Could darken those bright days for
me.
It's voice full of love and meaning
Cheering my sad heart on it's way.
And eyes full of love-lfght gleam-
The light of a by-gone day.
Alas, That dream, like the sunlight
But makes the night seem more
dense,
And ever time-weary with waiting,
I long for the day to go hence,
For she lies meath the green sod
sleeping
The peaceful slumber of death,
While the years have been slowly
creeping,
Ever onward to Life's aftermath.
And a voice full of love and meaning,
Floats along Lies lonely highway,
And eyes full of love-light cleaning,
Seem becoming night and day.

ENGINEERS WANT
TO BE LICENSED
Manufacturers Object to it
Before Labor Committee
Child Labor Law Meets
No Opposition at the
Hearing.

Hartford, April S-The committee on
labor gave hearing in the Senate
Chamber in the Capitol yesterday af-
time being devoted to the first bill
which provides for the licensing of
stationary engineers. The bill was in
troduced by Representative King of
East Hartford and provides for the
appointment of an examiner in chief
with an office in the Capitol and a
salary of $1,000 a year. He shall ap-
point an examiner in each of the
Congressional districts of the State
before whom engineers shall appear
for examination. Persons running an
engine under twenty-five horsepower
are not liable to examination nor are
those running locomotives or engines
in agricultural pursuits and an engi-
neer who has been in the employ Of
the same employer for three years
Or more shall be licensed without ex-
animation. The licensee fee is 50 and
is to be yearly but renewals are 81
each.
The bill was explained at some
length by Henry Vanderburgh of East
Hartford, who said that licenses are
required i'll seven States and twenty
four cities in the Union. He said that
the stationary engineers association
OF the state Favored the Dill ana tnaC
the law had worked we'll in other
States.
1t was also supported by William
II. Crowell of Winsted who felt that
the employment of men as engineers
should be safeguarded in view of the
responsibility of their duties and it
was also announced that twenty-five
Or thirty engineers were present in be-
half of the bill.
Charles W.. Gross, representing the
Association. opposed the
bill saying that it belonged to the
committee on public health and safety
and could only be justified as an ex-
ercise of the police power of the State
and it's support in that quarter would
fall if the exceptions were made in
favor of locomotives and farm en-
gines. George w. Klett of New Bri-
tain appeared in opposition for the
brick anIfacturers and further op-
position wss made by eN-Mayor F. B.
Farnswortll of New Haven, by W. J.

There is nothing that puts wo-
