CHILD LABOR BILL

MEASURE ALREADY HAS PASSED

AT WILSON'S lNSlSTENCE.

Washington. - The Senate passed
the bill to prevent interstate com.
merCe in products Of child labor by
vote OF 81 to II. The measure,
which already had passed the House,
was brought to vote in the Senate
upon the insistence Of President Will
son after the Democratic Senate eau
Gus had decided to defer its cOnsid-
Grafton until next December
Opposition to the measure had
come chiefly from Southern cotton
mill owners, and the group of South
ern Democrats who voted against it
had fought it in caucus and main
tanned their opposition during the
Senate debate on the ground that the
regulation proposed is unconstitus

FIFTEEN SAY SHREVEPORT FAIL
Ed TO PUBLISH BUDGET TEN
DAYS BEFORE ADOPTION.
SAC, 900 HAS BEEN COLLECTED
Statement Of Facts Shows That Bud
get Was Adopted For Year 1916 on
December IS, 1915, and License
Act Adopted at Same Time.
Shreveport

The entire revenue Of the city of
Shreveport collected under the 1916
license tax ordinance is threatened in
an attack made upon the ordinance
by Attorney s. |. Foster, assistant dis
trict attorney, representing George
McQuistian, and fourteen other de-
PENDANTS, charged in the City Court
with failure to pay $50 annual license
fee on transfer business they are
said to be engaged in. The city has
collected under the ordinance $4,000
Of the $4,000 budgeted The suits
were filed by J. F. Phillips, acting as
sistant city attorney, several days
ago and for convenience in trial were
Jumped. The same defense to apply
to each with equal force.
1t is recommended by the defense
that the city withdraw the suits be-
fore stirring up the illegality of the
ordinance. The attack on the ordi-
nance is based on the allegation that
it was adopted and made effective
without the 1916 budget having been
published for ten days before adop-
ton as required by law. The brief
covering the fifteen cases, in which
decision is to be rendered by City
Judge D. B. Samuel, after citing a
number of cases defending the posi-
ton, states:
"The statement of facts shows that
the budget was adopted for the year
1916 on December %, 1915, and that
the license act for the same year was
adopted December 30, 1915. We main
tain that the license ordinance hav-
ing been adopted within two days
of the budget renders it null and void
and that the city is without right in
law to force the payment OF all IL
cense from any business whatever in
the city under such an ordinance. 1t
would perhaps beho0ve the city to
withdraw from this legal fight and
not stir up the illegality of this H.
cense ordinance, which we have dag
nosed and found wanting in such a
vital point,
1.-The charter of the city Of Shreve-
port requires that no levy of any H.
cense tax shall be had until after ten
full days publication Of the budget
in the official journal Of the city. This
charter provision is not discretion
airy. but is a condition precedent to
the legality of the license and we
have the language Of the Supreme
Court to that effect"
