KENYON HOPES TO
PASS THREE bills
MEASURES ALL AIMED At ERADl.
CATION OF SOCIAL EvlLS At
THE CAPITAL.
[BY ELISHA HANsON.l

Washington, D. c., July 29.-Sen
ator Kenyon has high hopes Of see
ing three CT his most important socia
measures passed during the present
congress.
The three are the bills to restrict
the employment of women labor in the
District of Columbia; to abolish child
labor in the District Of Columbia; and
to enact the Iowa abatement and IN
junction law" onto the federal statnsea
for the District Of Columbia.
The, first two Of these measures
have been introduced into the house
lby Representative Taylor Of Colorado
and the third by Representative
Prouty OF Iowa.
I On Friday the house committee on
labor held a hearing on the two bills
referring to women and child labor
and requested Senator Kenyon to at
tend that hearing. He did 20 and at
its close he was asked to prepare q
brief for the committee and although
he ia now pressed with other work,
he declared that 1t would be plea
sure for him to comply with this 10.
quest.
The bill relating to women labor
prevents the employment OF women IN
any industry In the district for period
extending over eight hours day and
more than six days week. The bill
relating to child labor makes It an Of
tense to employ any child under four
teen years OF age in any capacity
whatsoever.
Because OF the tariff battle In the
senate, it is hardly expected that these
measures will receive any consSdera-
ton there before the regular session.
Senator Kenyon hopes, however, that
they will be we'll through the house by
that time and then he can get behind
them in the senate and push them
through.
eurIeson Is Winner.
The postmaster general, Mr.. Burle-
son: appears to have won great VIC
tory for the people by insisting upon
his right to change the parcels post
rates at his discretion. As result
sweeping reductions will 60 into force
on August Is.
While the matter was still pending
the latter part of the week. Edgar E.
Clark of Iowa, a member OF the inter-
state commerce commission, was asked
his opinion as to Mr.. Burleson's stand.
He declared that the postmaster gen.
eral was absolutely right and that he
hoped to see the parcels post extend
ed go that it would include practically
everything up to one hundred pounds
and above that II practical.
Had a congressional investigation
been ordered, the committee Of the
house on expenditures In the postomce
department, of which Representative
Pepper Of Iowa is the head, would
have been called upon TO investigate
the matter. Mr.. Pepper took advantage
of the situation to issue a statement
Indicating that his committee would
stand behind Mr.. Bur1eson.
