The following statement, taken
from the catalog Of a New York mail
order concern, is typical of those
made with a view to securing the
prospective customers business:
Don't pin your faith to pictures,
but be governed by the reputation
for reliability and fair dealing of the
concern you buy from
Is not this good advice to pass
along to the home town people, when
they contemplate buying away from
home? The home town dealer has
the actual goods-he doesn't have to
show pictures. Being on the ground
he ought to have the confidence of
his townspeople; they know whether
he is reliable and fair in his dealings
with them. Il he hasn't created or
secured that reputation he ought to
begin at once to work toward that
end.

duced In. Con gress bySA. Mitchell Pal
mer Of PennsylVa for the Nation
al Child Labpt. COMMITTEES is radical
departure frotn the other measures
designed to end this abuse by feder-
al law.
The bill is drawn on the general
lines OF the pure food and drugs acts
and seeks to prohibit employment OF
children under / 4 years in manufac-
turing occupations and to limit the
work Of children under g to eight
hours per day. 1t also fixes the age
Limit for mines and Quarries at 16
years.
section / of the bill which contains
the standards sought reads as fol-
lows:
mo person, partnership, associa-
ton or corporation or any agent or
employee thereof manufacturing, pro-
ducing or dealing in the products of
any mine or quarry in which chill
dren under 6 years of age are eTl-
ployed or permitted to work at any
time; or of any mill, cannery, work
shop, factory or manufacturing es-
Enlistment in which children under
Ia years of age are employed or per-
Initted to work at any time or IN
which children between the ages of
or permitted to work more than eight
hours in any day or more than six
days in any week. or after the hour
Of Z .. M, or before the hour of Z
a. M, OF any day. shall ship or offer
or deliver for shipment such products
in interstate commerce"
The secretary of commerce, the
secretary of labor and the attorney
general constitute permanent board
on rules and regulations and the sec
rotary of labor is authorized to tn-s
spect and prosecute for violations.
The law also provides that state FAC
tory inspectors, truant officers tor
any other person" may bring, COM
plants before United States district
attorneys and every separate ship
.mant is made to constitute q separate
offense.
The National Child Labor Commit
tee has repeatedly been urged to es-
pouse one of the bills which mere
~ sought to forbid child labor under
ii years but has taken the ground
that new standard federal law might
hinder rather than promote state leg
islatton.
However we have not taken any
radical ground in this bil1' said Owen
