Supreme Court Decision Needed

Ills argument for the unconstitu-
tionality Of the measure was ably die
posed Of By Mr. Heating to-day. and Is
far too involved for repetition here.
Let it suffice 20 say that Mr. Heating
suggested that II the cotton interests
and Mr. Britt are so sure the bill is
unconstitutional the quickest way 20
prove it is to lct the bill pass Congress

close the fight within few months.
In the second par: OF hla eNplana-
ton Mr.. Britt said he has always
favored child labor legislation; that he
had favored the Weaver bill here m
North Carolina last year. but that he
could not favor the Heating bill. be

eleven hours day.
As Dr. A. J. NcKclway, Of the Ma
tional Child Labor Committee, and Mr.
Heating both pointed out, there is
fallacy in this argument, for the Nea
yer bill, which Mr. Brltt advocated las.
year for this state, had even more
stringent provisions than the heatinE
bill. which he opposed IN the Houat
last Wednesday. In fact. Mr.. BRITT

When the citizens Of the country
show their interest in their soldiers IN
such practical ways as sending them
useful articles OF wearing apparel or

grateful
This is the substance OF a cOmmuni-

Fort Bliss, upon the receipt Of a con-
signment for the sick and wounded
soldiers at the border post recently
sent by the American Red Cross Lieut..

The comfort bags referred to in

THE bags contain a most excellent
assortment of useful articles and no
doubt will be much appreciated by the
recipients.
Members Of the local Red Cross have
also been quite active in behalf of the
sick and wounded in the hospital and
many delicacies and much fruit has
been received from them. which made
most welcome additions TO the special
diets
The fact that citizens take such
practical interest in the welfare Of our
soldiers. has made a marked impress
sion upon them. and in my opinion
promoted contentment and efficiency
