Curse Of Child Labor

That law, passed in 1905, remains to-
day the lowest standard of any State
in the Union.
Georgia is the only State in the I'm

to work in its. mills and factories, and
it permits them to work eleven hours
ia day.
The other cotton mill States Of the
South do not allow such conditions

It is no wonder the mill workers are
poor, WORKOUT, ready for THE scrap
heap before they have reached the
normal age for greatest productivity
What chance can they have to better
their condition when their toll in the
mills begins at ten years?
We believe in conserving our for.
ests and protecting fish and game, but
we let little children be wasted be

child labor is false economy. Other
States have awakened to this years

The bill prepared by The Atlanta

For fifteen years the humane and
disinterested people of Georgia have
been trying to secure laws to protect
working children.
- Their pleas and their disclosure OF
conditions that are disgrace not
only to the State of George, but to
the whole nation, have been OF no
avail.
They have been ignored by those as
of Georgia people. They have been
defied by those who reaped dEldends
from the children's labor. They have
been tricked by men who pretend that
"gentlemen's agreements are more
eficacious than laws
Georgia was the last tSate with

Pres. Wilson also is put on the

for trust regulation and the formula

farmers. The latter legislation is de-
manded by the country representa-
tives in congress to assist them in
their fights for denomination in con
gressional primaries this summer. and
trust legislation is causing a division
among democrats in congress between
those who are for conservative action
and those who are radical in their

DOWN IN MEXICO
Rich and Poor Discussed by
Lecturer

F. Tennyson Nicely, who gave his il
Illustrated ."rruth About Mexico" in the
Auditorium last night, gets exceeding
~ warm under the collar while he is
speaking OF the conditions in Mexico.
He said that when Cortez rent to Mex
leo in 14l5 he gathered liberty, honor,
truth and justice together and crucifed
them all. That code had maintained
ever since. It was the old story of the
rich grinding down the poor. The reb-
els Of today under Villa, the bandit,
were fighting for justice, and that is
why the women join the army. The
rich are immensely rich and the poor
are miserably poor. 1t Is a land
where might is right, where when a
man becomes rich and powerful he uses
his power to rob and Cypress. Al
though the land is rich In gold, silver,
and about all the precious metals the
poor are in abject slavery. They nat
urally rebel and that is why they swear
allegiance to Villa who has the same
grievance.
MI. Nicely told the story of how Villa
became a bandit. A rich man eloped
with Villas beautiful sister. Villa fol-
lowed on horseback and the second
day caught the pair. Finding that the
wedding ceremony had not been per-
formed Villa commaned that it be done.
Like all Mexicans he had a high sense
of honor in that way. After the cere-
mony Villa lovingly took the BRIDE
groom aside and taking his pistols
away from him, forced him to dig a
grave. Then taking the b~ridegroom's
pistol he shot him to death, kicked
him into the grave and took his sister
home a widow. A price was set by the
rich relatives on Villas head, and he
had to become a bandit. Since then he
has been fighting the battle for the
oppressed. One of the first things he
did when hegot an army was to go to
one banker who had offered a big re-
ward and announce to him that he had
come for the reward. He took not
only the reward but also all the money
that was in the bank. He visited all
the men who had set a price on his
head and robbed them all. Mr.. Medley
said Villa was probably the most des-
perate man In Mexico, made go by the
inhuman treatment of the poor by the
powerful. His army was ready to die
in the cause and nothing could stand
before such men and women.
Mr.. Medley showed photographs OF
the manners and customs of the peo-
pie who had not advanced a step in
civilization for four hundred years.
Very few can read or write. He prais.
ed President Wilson for not sending an
army to Mexico for he said ten thous-
and of the so-called best people there
were not worth American soldier.
He thought 1t about time tosend q man
down there to tell those people what
to do and do 1t quickly. He said the
United States had such a man and he
was Theodore Observation-Disclosures
