readers why the prohihitery law can

You'd question that these laws are not
enforced and that repetition of the
horror may occur at any time in any
one of hundreds of factories.
The Sentinel winds up its case and
submits 1t to the reader with ''If the

our correspondent makes the SHARP
and plain point that public senti

Then why are not the present laws
enforced? Is il not because it would
cost manufacturers money to meet the

not paying well TO grafters to be allow
