CHILD LABOR
BILL IS GOOD MEASURE
Mrs. Florence Kelly Says It Is Long
Step Toward Freeing Children
From Labor in Factories.
ENFORCEMENT Is LEFT
TO DISTRICT ATTORNEYS
Secretary Of Labor to Report Violations
and Prosecutor Must Then Take
Action Promptly.
IuNITEp rREss InAsrp w1RE. !


Washington, Feb. 13.-The introduc.
tion Of the Palmer child labor bill, ae.
cording to Mrs. Florence Kelly, member
Of the board Of trustees Of the Nation.
al Child Labor Committee, is a long
step forward in the fight to free chill.
dren from factories and send them to
school. The bin, which proposes to pro.
hibit interstate commerce in goods pro.
duced by children under fourteen years
of age, or by children under sixteen
who have worked more than eight hours
a day, is declared to be the most i'm.
portant of any similar bills that have
been introduced. Mrs. Kelly has pre-.
pared the following article explaining
why this is so:
1.-THE child labor bill introduced in
Congress by Representative A. Mitchell
Palmer, Of Pennsylvania, an January
26 last, is more comprehensive than
the Kenyon child labor bill in which
hitherto l have been deeply interested.
It applies to manufacturing establish.
ments, factories, mines and quarries,
mills canneries and workshops. 1t ia
more extensive than the Kenyon bill
in that it regulates the employment OF
children between the ages Of IA and
l6 years, restricting their working
hours to eight in one day and to day.
light hours from 7 a. m. to p. m.
Like the Kenyon bill it applies to inter
state commerce.

Duty Of District Attorney.

Duty OF District Attorney.
"The enforcement of the proposed
law is made the duty of each district
attorney to whom the Secretary of La
shall report any violation. It is
quite new in providing that prosecu-
tions must be begun when state fac
tory inspector, commissioner Of labor,
state medical inspector, school attend
ance officer or any other person shall
present satisfactory evidence Of viola.
tion Of the law. The penalty provided
is fine Of not more than 81 900 nor
less than 800 or imprisonment for not
less than one year or both such fine
and Imprisonment.
1.-THE bill marks long advance over
the proposals contained in both the
Kenyon bill and the old Beveridge bill
because it aplies to wider range of
employments and to older children (be-
tween IA and l6) for whom it forbids
night work and establishes the eight
hour day. In short, it applies to more
occupations, and more children, con-
tains more provisions and authorizes
more officials to begin suit upon a com.
plant Of more different sets of people.
Would Not Touch State Law.
"The question is often asked wheih-
er an interstate commerce provision
would supercede state laws and munich
pal ordinances. II could not do this for
the following reasons: IL can in the
nature of things apply only to goods
manufactured, mined or quarried; it
leaves untouched the messenger ser.
vice, employment in department stores
and other forms Of retail trade; all ag.
ricultural work such as cotton picking,
berry and hop picking, wedding in the
beet fields, and all other kinds of agri-
cultural, and horticultural work in
which children are employed in ever in
creasing numbers.
"Such law cannot interfere with
street work, such as newspaper vending
peddling, boot.blacking, and service as
delivery boys on wagons, WHICH have to
be dealt with by state laws or munici.
pal ordinances, Furthermore, there are
certain dangerous trades which by a
score Of existing state laws have been
forbidden to all children under 10 years
or is years. The only feasible attempt
to touch upon this important point by
federal legislation is the prohibition Of
work in mines and quarries by children
under 10 years,

Palmer bill but no protection is afford
