FORESEES
FINISH OF
CHILDLABOR
BY LOWELL MELLETT.

| UNITED Press Staff Correspondent
Washington, July 21.-Dr. A. ]. Nc
Kelway. southern secretary of the Ma
tional Child Labor committee, is GER
tain that the end of child labor in
America is practically in sight. The
coming congress is sure to enact the
Legislation for which the committee
has been working he thinks, since it
passed the house by a large majority
in the last congress and only failed
of passage in the senate through OBJ
structionist tactics.
/ Leaving Washington for Atlanta
oand Montgomery, where the legisla-
lures of Georgia and Alabama, respec-
lively. are in session, DR.. McKelway
said:
The child labor situation in Geor-
gia and Alabama is another proof OF
the need OF federal child labor law.
Even when some of our states reach
something like the proper standard of
Legislation for the protection of work
ing children, the question of enforce
ment of the law remains. In Georgia
there was created few years ago a
bureau of labor with commissioner
of labor in charge. He is assigned
the work OF gathering statistics relat-
ing II the industries of the state He
has one assistant and totally made
quate expense account He has been
able to accomplish almost nothing
with this Inadequate force in the way
of factory inspection and the enforce
ment OF the child labor law of Georgia
A bill mas been introduced urging the
appointment of two factory inspectors
and hope TO help in persuading the
Georgia legislature to enact this bill
into law.
In Alabama. the inspector of fac
tories is also inspector of jails. asy-
lums and poor houses. He is a most
competent man. He has done great
work in compelling cities and coun-
ties to erect modern sanitary Jail
buildings. and his also striven to the
The Chickasha daily express. (Chickasha, Indian Territory [Okla.]) 1899-current, 1915-07-21

utmost of his means to enforce the
child labor law. He has one factory
inspector and deputy inspector con
nected with his office; and bill in
troduced at the former session of the
legislature, which passed the house,
proposes to abolish his office altogeth-
er. ! believe that the sober second
thought of the people of Alabama win
express itself emphatically against
such proposition, but the very threat
of it shows the necessity for constant
vigilance so long as the enforcement
of child labor regulation depends up
on the precarious will of state legisla-
tive bodies.
Il regard the prospect of the federal
child labor bill at the next session of
congress as excellent. The majority
for il in the house, which was 233 TO
4S, in the last congress. will be sub
stantially increased; and | have rea-
son tc believe that nine-tenths of the
senate is in favor of the measure.
With a good start early in the session
of congress, it will be impossible for
a single objector to hold il up this
time as Senator Overman did in the
expiring hours of the last congress.
Undoubtedly the people of the United
States are with a remarkable degree
of unanimity in favor of the adequate
protection of the working children
from exploitation; and when Uncle
Sam takes charge OF the problem all
of the advocates of this reform will
feel that the end of child labor in
America is in sight"

Fish and Game.

The fishes of prehistoric times were
always identical with the fishes of to-
day. Perhaps this is not so very sur
prising after all, for water is water
always the same. 1t does not change
1t is not subject to climatic variations
as are the earths more solid portions.
The fish of this country now have
money value far in excess of its game.
Some of US can remember when this
was not so, when game sold for dollars
and fish for dimes. Had it been possi-
Bile to propagate game as it has fish,
no doubt the result would still remain
as is once was. How the one has
shrunk and the other grown by leaps
and bounds is told by the exhibits of
each at the San Francisco exposition,
and no better object lesson can be had
OF the gain Of one and the loss of the
other than by visiting the various dis
plays Of each. All of which points out
as probable fact that at no distant
day I'm America the rod will supersede
the gun, and shooting, except at the
trap, will be limited to fortunate few

foundations In haIIand.

Despite the great dikes Of Holland,
holding at bay the eager waters of the
sea- there are records Of terrible in
undations which have claimed great
numbers of the population. In the lat
ter part Of the thirteenth century the
waters overcame the dikes at the
mouth Of the Ems. causing loss Of
10000 lives. Again. in 1921, the over
flow of the Meuse buried 72 villages
and drowned 100000 people; and in
1870 another 100000 lives were swal-
lowed up by the North sea. when it
broke through.

CALM AND COURAGEOUS AMID

Between the propaganda OF the
peaceatany-price pacificists on the
one hand and the rawlings OF the not
numerous but highly yociferous fire
eaters like Col Roosevelt on the
other, the position Of President VIII
son at the present time is clearly any
thing but pleasant one Confronted
by the necessity of making decisions
and formulating policies Of the grav-
est importance to the country, the
chief executive OF the nation is con-
stantly compelled to submit TO the
criticisms OF those who would sway
him from the course which conscience
and judgment map out for him. In
some cases partisanism rather than
patriotism prompts these critics and
in others 1t is the misguided enthusl-
asm OF pronounced protangonists o.

pean struggle.

the minority. 1t is evident that the
