New Advertisinq Standards

The time has passed, is rapidly passing, when newspaper space is open to all advertisers who are willing to pay for it, when it whatever the newspapers get for it Newspapers have learned that it pays to be fair advertisers and that it pays protect their readers The tendency of newspapers in this respect shown in the adop- tion of the following advertising standards at the convention of Associated Advertising clubs at To- last week:
 ]. Protect the honest advertiser and the general newspaper reader far possible from deceptive or offensive advertising
 ?. Sell advertising a commodity on the basis Of proved circulation and the service the will render the manufacturer the merchant and to pro vide the fullest information as to the character of such circulation and how procured
 3. Maintain uniform according to classified ton and to present these rates far possible uniform card.
 1. Accept advertising which is antagonistic to the public welfare.
 ,. Effect the largest possible cooperation with the other newspapers in the same field for the estab llshnent and maintenance of these standards
 The observance of the second of these standards is of the greatest importance to newspapers and advertisers. The latter want to know more than that their advertisements will reach a certain num- Der of subscribers. They what kind of subscribers they are; whether they the kind the advertiser wants to reach all The number of subscribers only starting point for the skillful

 The fourth standard is well in advance of that of less than quarter of a century ago-the accep- tance of advertising which is antagonistic to the public welfare. Less than quarter of a century ago many then reputable newspapers threw their cassi- fled columns to advertising the most immoral character facilitating designations giving loca tons of disordery houses That was then thought to be as legitimate advertising the advertisements of patent medicines. until lately, were thought to be The progress of the world in morals may be meas ured by the changes that have taken place in the character of newspaper advertising

 Progress in transportation has widened the egiti mate field of business and small corporations more competent to win hold and handle the trade than the caravals of Columbus would be to serve the transatlantic traffic of today. This elementary truth Germany has mastered and the government acts accordingly. Germany and England are not wasting time forging chains for industrial giants; they are propa gating the breed.
 The United States, the contrary, is pursuing the opposite course It is centralzing government and decentralizng business. It is endeavorins to break our great commercial organizations into stituent units It wants undercapitaZe and under man our trade agencies.

"Unfair Competition"

One of the objections of United States Senator Borah the Newlands interstate trade commission bill. of the bills of the administrations anti trust legislation program, IS interesting one The general purpose of the bill is admittedly good providing for the regulation of interstate trade by competent commission, to supersede the restric tionst and annoyances which have been imposed upon developing and expanding commerce by such rigid measure the Sherman antitrust law which has been made workable only by succeeding judicial legislation which has been enacted by the courts from time to time to meet needs which could not have been foreseen twenty-five years ago Even that old law, with all it's imperfections. is superior to the provisions of the pending and mean ngless Clayton antitrust law.
 Senator Borah objects to the indefinite power which would be given the commission to prevent unfair competition" How would the competition be determined to be "unfair?' he inquires. We think that this is matter which might better be left to the judgment of the commission, be tied along with the many other unforeseen problems which would confront it, rather than to attempt enumerate in law the kinds of competition that should be prohibited Enumeration is a difficult, unsatisfactory, sometimes impossible process in law making.
 We recall decision in where ai! officer resisted his removal for cause The law under which his removal sought was attacked the ground that for removal were not stated in the law The said that an attempt to enumerate such would be futile while many might be listed it would be impossible to make complete list. and for no cause not enumer- ated could official be removed however much he might deserve removal The cause must be held by competent authority to be sufficient
 The interstate trade commission would be em- powered by the Newlands bill prescribe regua tions which could be altered as occasion required describing unfair competition. The courts in the end would have the last word

CHILD LABOR CONFERENCE ID
 BEGIN TODAY
Tenth Annual Natl onal Gathering Will Inaugu- rate Proceedings With Huge Mass Meeting in New Orleans
GAsSoCIATED PRESS DISPATCH1


 NEW ORLEANS, March 1.-The tenth annual National Child Labor Conference will begin here tomorrow afternoon with an open air mass meeting in Lafayette Square opposite the city hall. This departure in the manner of holding the first meeting of the conference was made in an endeaVor to attract to the sessions the people whom the child uplift work is destined to benefit. City of ficials have arranged for a seat ing capacity of several thousand
 For several weeks leaders in child labor endeaVors here have tried to impress upon persons whose child ren are employed in industrial plants to attend the first meeting. Some of the most prominent speakers of the conference will address the open air meeting. These include Jane Addams of Hull House, Chicago; Dr. Felix Adler chairman of the na- tiOnal child labor committee under the auspices of which the conference is held; Luther E. Hall, governor of Louisiana, Martin Behrman, mayor of New Orleans, Senator Robert l.. Owen of Oklahoma, and Judge Joseph E. Mccullough of Greenville, s. c.
 Among other speakers at the con- ference which will extend over four days, are some of the foremost child labor betterment advocates in the country.
 The program this year is devoted largely to the need for enforcement of the state child labor laws. rather than plea for more drastic meas ures in this respect A call for a change of laws in some states will not be overlooked, it is said but an earnest plea will be made for en- | forcement of what are considered good laws
 "A great many of the states have good child labor laws now" said Miss Jean NJ. Gordon, former Louisiana | factory inspector and who took a prominent part in arranging for this conference. For instance Louisiana had a good law as far back as 1888 but it was not enforced until recent | y need for d more stringent act and we got it. Enforcement of measures now on the statute books will do wonders toward solving the problem of the working child, particularly in the cot ton mills of the south
 ] Miss Gordon said she believed con- l ferences of former years had moi reached their full importance because people who work in the factories anG mills have not been attracted to the meetings. It is for this reason the mass meeting was planned and some interest aroused among workers 1T New Orleans.

TWO COACHES OF TRAIN 60

 Are Seriously Injured
ASSOCIATED PRESS prsPATcH1


 ST. PAUL, March 14.-Passenger train No. of the St Paul. Minneapolis and Omaha railroad. was wrecked near Mandots, Minn., shortly after eight o'clock tonight, according to reports re- ceived here. The train was enroute from Omaha to St. Paul, when for some reason, two coaches jumped the track and rolled down the embank- ment One woman was killed, and 35 injured, several fatally, it is said. A relief train was made up here and hur- ried to the scene.
 It was impossible to identify the wo7 man killed The first part of the train remained on the tracks and proceeded to St. Paul with the dead and injured. The fact that both coaches were of steel probably saved a score of lives, the railroad men say A relief corps was formed and the injured passengers lifted through the windows and doors of the coaches Many were severely cut by broken glass. The general opinion is the rails crumpled after the engine and the first few coaches had passed over.
