CHILD LABOR BILL NO FAKE.

7 ARGE praise which was unstlnted-
ly bestowed upon congress and
- the administration in the first
few days after the passage and APP
prevail of the child labor law, was la-
ter modified in an important degree By
the alleged discovery that there was
Joker in the bill. Under a thirty
day clause inserted in the measure
as a late amendment it has been
charged that it's beneficient intent was
nullified, and that it was not after all
such a good thing as it seemed. This
criticism does not appear to appeal,
however, to the officials of the nation
al child labor committe. According
to statement just put forth by Mr..
Owen r. Lovejoy, the Industrious and
efficient secretary of the committee,
the bill is in all respects satisfactory,
and he feels to enter a protest against
all assertions to the contrary. More
over, he brands as absurd the attempt
to use the measure as campaign ma
terial, for both Democrats and Re-
publicans were represented on the SEN
ate committee that passed on the final
form of the bill, both parties stood
solidly for it in this form, and if on

from Pennsylvania voted against it,
there were also Democratic opponents,
ten in number from the southern
states. Whether a gold brick" there
fore, or the real article, one party is
as much responsible for it as the 9th
er-either in blame or in credit.
Explaining the "thirty-day clause,
which has been the subject of partisan
criticism and ridicule, Secretary Love
JOY insists that there is no fraud or
"joke" about it, The provision in ques-
ton read:
"No producer, manufacturer, OF
dealer shall ship or deliver for ship
ment in interstate or foreign COM
merce any article or commodity
the product of any MILL cannery
workshop, factory or manufacturing
establishment situated in the United
States, in which within thirty days
prior to the removal of such products
therefrom children under the age Of
fourteen years have been employed, OF
permitted to work"
Mr.. Lovejoy says that this was in
tended chiefly to prevent evasion O
the law by the storage of child-mad'
, goods in a warehouse-it does not re
late to shipment in interstate com
merce, but to removal from the fac
tory and it was necessary as mat
ter of simple justice, because withou
it manufacturer who once employee
child labor would find his goods de
barred forever from interstate com
merce even though his child employee
were discharged
Surely the bill ought to be as near
t ly air-tight as human language ca
make it. 1t was framed by eminen
2 constitutional lawyers, and havin
