A royal commissioner mas as
sumed charge OF the earthquake
area and has ordered the soldiers
not to dig into the ruins unless
they hear the means or cries OF
victims. Officers have been spec
iAically detailed to find out the
most likely spots for excava-
tion. In Avezzano, as a result OF
systematic exploration, Is sur
vivors were rescued. They were
all thoroughly exhausted a n d
badly injured and several had to
be operated upon, crushed arms
and legs being amputated.
The ruins are now ominously
silent, and means are now heard
only rarely. The burial of t h Q
dead has been hastened for sani-
stary reasons. 1t has been raining
all day and the excavating has
been made more difficult.

4 The development Of North Car.

State, depends on the health aud
intelligence of it's people; and the
foundations OF health and intel

hood.
ACQUISITION always worth the

IA educating or in getting educa-
ted i, how is North Carolina pro
viding opportunity for her. chill
dren to become healthy and in
tslligent men and women? Does
she open q free way for their de.
velopment, or does she stunt the
the growth Of body and mind by
allowing them to work in factor.
les? -.
Brought into the form of q
debate query, the question is:
Resolved, That North Carolina
should enact a law prohibiting
|all children under IA years ofage
from working -inany mill, factory
Or manufacturing plant"
AFFIRMATIVE ARGUMENTS.
l. Child labor results in men,
tai and physical etardation and
incomplete development, for
A No timefor play, one of the
chief agents Of development is
given.
B. Very little, if any, time is
given for school.
G The work is frequently car
ried on in badly lighted unsani-
tary buildings. =
II. Child labor defeats the very
object Of its employment, for
A It tends to industrial deter
ioration, for in retarding the
physical and mental growth OF
the child, it prevents him from
becoming'a skilled laborer.
III. Child labor is cheap labor,
and cheap labor tends to power
ty, for
A The total income OF a fam
ily working in an industry that
regularly employs child labor is
almost always less than that of
q family working in an industry
that employs only adults.
". Child labor is detrimental
to society in general, for =
It promotes crime, for work
ling children contribute q much
larger proportion of delinquents
than do non working children.
B. It smbitters the spirit of the
child, for aa it hinders his high.
est development as a citizen, it
fills him, with. hatred Of those
whom hs considers responsible.
V. It is contended that some
forms Of manufacture are depen-
dent upon child labor; but tho
child labor may be an economy
and q convenienc it cannot be a
necessity for any form OF legit.
innate manufacture.
vi. It is contended that t h G
child of'the widow or the needy
child should be allowed to work;
button the contrary, such chill
dren should be given special pro.
lection 80 that their possibili.
1ties for future maintenance may
mot be. limited.
| NEGATIVE ARGUMENTS.
l. Society absolutely; v,;nee d {
child labor in some forms OF le.
gitimate manufacture, for
A children are better fitted fol
some occupations than adults.
Il Many persons who are una
bic to work or who cannot earn
enough to support their fami-
lies, need the help of their chill
dren. :,
