"The story of 1000 men going out

"But the real reason why the press
bureaus are sending out such untrue
reports is because they have found
that labor has been able to secure
progressive legislation in Oregon,
Washington and California, and they
fear that the growing power of the
unions will ultimately harm their
pocketbooks.
"Here in Portland today w. L.

the government takes no interest in
the matter.
IF this federal child bureau were
in effect" said Judge Lindsay, "the
government would only be doing as
much for its children as it is doing
for its cattle, This bureau would
take, say 100 babies and experiment
with them. AS it is today, every
child is trained in the same way, fit
ted for the same things, regardless
,of what his or her talents or tenden-
cies may be. Consequently large
per cent of the human race worries
along into middle age before they
find the occupation for which they
are suited. The bureau would take
up this subject and determine from
the child's disposition for what line
of endeavor it is fitted-in other
words, make science of bringing up
a race of healthy and sturdy human
beings.
"This child problem is the greatest
one of the age, for it concerns the
social and industrial and economic
problems of the nation. These never
will be solved until the childaques-
tion has been satisfactorily settled
That is why l am in politics, because
1 know that I can do nothing for the
child without laws for its protec-
ton"
