OHILDREN's BUREAU.

The CtaiIdren's Bureau of the De partment of Labor issues a report on the administration of the child labor certificate system in the State of Con necticut This is the first of a, series of studies to show how the laws to protect working children actually do so in practice.
 When legislature has been induc- ed to place a child labor law on it's statute books the public often as- sumes that its duty is ended. On the contrary, this inquiry assumes that such a, law is only a beginning in the task of protecting children from over work and exploitation The next and by far the greater task is to see that the law is carried out.
 According to the U. S. Census of 1910, over 550,O00 of our nations children from 10 to IS years old were at work in factories, shops and other non-agriou1tural positions. At that school to go to work do not leave it for a life of luxury. For the most part they go to work in order to add to the family income, By what legal machinery are these children pro

  It shows that he is entitled to work, and it furnishes a record of every child at work and therefore subject to the law. For this reason the Chil- dren's Bureau is studying the en- p1oynent certificate systems to learn how far the laws which have been made to protect working children ac- tua11y do so-
 To whom does the child apply for his working papers? If the certif1- cate states that he can read and write simple sentences,'' how well must he read how well must hew rite, and who is to judge what is a simple sentence? How does he prove that he is of legal age to work Whose property is the working card? Are working papers given a child regard less of the prospect of employment2 If so, what is done to keep a line on those who do and those who do not get work? Can a working card be used to thwart truant officers? Do the working papers Issued tally with

the children actually at Workt
 These are some of the questions that the Chi1dren's Bureau studies are designed to answer.
 In Connecticut a child cannot go to work until he is 4 years old, and until cannot work unless he has an employment certificate. No child can get a certificate and stay out of school unless he has a job. If he quits work his employer must notify the State Board of Education, and be- fore he can go to work again perna- nent1y he must secure a fresh cer- tificate.'
 The most striking feature of the Connecticut system of issuing work ing papers is that the State Board of Education controls it's enforcement and dovetaiIs the working of the compulsory education law with the child labor law. Practically every step is under the direct supervision of the State Board of Education. Agents of the State Board travel from town to town, Issuing working

papers, inspecting shops for viola tions of the certificate law, and visit ing in their homes children who have left their jobs.
 Studies similar to the one in Con necticut are being undertaken in other States, and it is believed that by discovering the strong and weak features of various systems in use, some standard will be reached of the best methods for protecting children at work.
 This inquiry is under the direction of Miss Helen L. Sumner, in charge of the Industrial Division of the Chill dren's Bureau.

house in which, she said, the

But she could give only vague

Believe
Girl Is
Held a
Captive

That Ethel Oliver, the missing
Tacoma nurse-maid, Is held In
duress at some point in the Pa
cific Northwest. was theory
that today engaged the attention
of officials.
This turn in the sensational
case was caused by the receipt OF
letter by Prosecutor Remain
from the girls mother in Everett.
Mrs. Oliver enclosed the note
which she received yesterday from
the girl, postmarked Avery,
Idaho.
Mrs. Oliver pronounces the
handwriting as Ethel's, and en-
closes another sample of her writ
ing for comparison.
She declared to Prosecutor Re-
mann that she was convinced the
girl did not write the note except
under threats of some person who
has her in his or her power.
Doesn't Suspect Father.
Mrs. Oliver added that she was
certain the girls father had no
connection with the case.
1t is thought, IL this latest the
DRY is the true one, that the let
ter was sent to Avery and remail-
ed from there.
The note which Mrs. Oliver re-
ceived from the girl was as fol-
lows:
ITO my mother: Do not worry
about me. am working in a
lovely place. l am capable OF
going out in the world alone and
| am going to do it.

the teams will remain where they

street today was literally street
of gold. in the past week more
than 100000 shares of stock
changed hands, the brokers' COM
missions amounting to more than
$1,750,000 alone.
The profits of outside traders
and of professional spectators is
impossible to estimate, but they
will probably rival anything the
street knew in its palmiest days.
Commission houses which
thought they would not be able
to make expenses a few weeks
back are rolling in wealth. A
craze for anything in the way OF
a stock gamble is swapping the
brokers.
People who never before saw
a stock broker or his office are
regular visitors in their frenzied
