Washington Letter
By Edward Heating

District.
President Woodrow Wilson heard
the cry of the children the
other day and putting aside all
the perplexing problems of his
high Office he rode to the capitol
and called on the Democrat SEN
ators to pass the federal child la
bor bill.
Nothing else that this marve-
Ions man has done is so ca!culat-
ed to grip the hearts of tie
American people, for it reveals to
them the tender, responsive,
human side of their chef execu-
tive.
The Presidents visit was yer
liable bombsnell in. the camp OF
the greedy cotton-mill interests
which have been fighting the bill
They imagined they had succeed
ed in burying the measure and
they made no ATTEMPT to conceal
their jubilation. To have the
President of the United States
enter the lists as the champion
of the tiny serfs Of the mills was
truly disconcerting. ....
It is inconceivable that the
majority of the Senators will ig-
more the presidents plea and bar
ring unforeseen Developments,
the bill should become law before
Congress adjourns.
STORY OF A LONG FIGHT.
INTRODUCED the child labor bill
on the op Meg day of the present
session, D cember 7th. 1915. |
imediately discovered a large aud
influential lobby organized and
paid by the colt 'n-mill owners OF
the South and assisted by certain
interests in the North and West.
Under the rules my bill should
have been referred to the COM
mittee on Labor. but prominent
lawyer, former member of Con-
Rress, was employed to appear
before the speaker and demai d
that it be referred to the Com
mittee on Interstate a~d Foreign
Commerce. There it was hoped
it could be buried indefinitely ;s
the chairman of the, committee
was known to be hostile +" tie
legislati n The Spe;,ke ) lig
hearted Champ Clark. pa..ently
listened to the arguments of both
sides and then decided that the
bill must go to the Committee on
Labor. This delay cost us a
month of pre- c:ous time.
The lobby demanded hearings.
despite the fact that in the Sixty
third Congress the committee of
both Houses and Senate had gone
into the subject exhaustively.
We yielded, because we did not
wish to be placed in the position
of taking Snap judgment.
PLAYING FOR TINE
Days were consumed in the tax
ing Of testimony and in the ar
Ruments on the constitutional
questions involved. Then the
lobby presented an invitation
from the cotton-milIs owners urg
ing that the committee do moth
until it had visite.l the mills as
their guests. This was manifest
ly . play for time. as the legis-
lation applied to the mills. mines
and factories of the entire nation
and IN inspection of a few care
fully selected cot ton mills could
not reveal any important facts
MT a;ready brought out by the
army of witnesses.
The committee declined the in
vitation and ordered my bill Ia
vorably reported. That action
was taken one Friday afternoon.

ing in the garden but the smile has
been exchanged for a frown and he oc-

by our bright boys and girls, with many
songs, dialogs and Rotations which
were well rendered. The manner in
which the program was carried out re-
fleets great credit on the ladies' who had
charge OF the affair. The leaders with
the assistance of others were Mrs. Jay
Hardwick, Mrs. Alex Stump and Mrs.

community feel very grateful to these
ladies' for the interest they have taken
in training heir children in this inspir-
