INDIANAPOLIS, Aug. 3.-Plans for the reorganization and perpetuation of the Progressive party as a national IoliticaI organization were adopted tonight at a conference of Bull Moose representatives here.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 3.-The
 senate late today began consider
 alton of the bill bill to prevent
 interstate commerce in the prod
 ucts of child labor. The measure 6was restored ot place on the
 legislative program of this session
 7t the request of President Wilson
 after the Democratic caucus had

He real eX- tracts From newspapers in Norfh and South Carolina. Alabama, Georgia, Mississippi and Texas, favoring child labor legislation.
 Conuress Has Power
 Answering contentious that the rroposed act would effect an uncon- stitutional transgression of the rights of the states, the Arkansas senator declared that under decision of the supreme court the power of congress to regulate commerce is complete and absolute except as limited by the leg islatior itself that the only limita- ton is the fifth amendment. which provides that no person shall be de- prived of life. liberty or property without due process of law: that the fourteenth amendment to the consti- tuition imposes teh same limitation on the states as that imposed by the fifth amendment on the federal gov ernment, and that:
 'Tf the states in the exercise of the police power can suppress evils of child labor, congress through its power to regulate commerce can, too. by denying the commerce to persons and enterprises in the interests of public health. morals and safety"
 Senator Robinson asserted that congress could do indirectly a great many things that it could not directly perform.
 Plenty of Precedent
 "The lottery cases and the white slave cases decided by the supreme court" he said. affirm the power of congress to enact legislation in the nature of police regulations through it's power to regulate commerce; that congress has as much power to sup- press recognized evils in the condi- tions surrounding the transportation or manufacture of commodities through d regulation of commerce as if has to accomplish the same and after transportation has ended"
