Senator Mclean Favors
New Child Labor Law

New Haven, Feb. 10-In reply to a
message sent by the JournaI-Courier
as to his attitude towards the proposed
federal law forbidding industrial en-
pIoyment of children under sixteen
years of age, United States Senator
George P. Mclean writes that while
he had not studied the proposed bill
he assumed it was substantially a copy
of the Owen bill of last session, the
provisions of which had his hearty
approval. He adds:
81 think the government ought to
see to it that children have pure air
to breathe and hea1thful instruction
and occupation, until they are 1 6 years
of age at least. The confinement of
young children in dusty factories is
in my opinion both uneconomical and
cruel and should be prevented, prefer
ably by state legislation. If the states
refuse or neglect to act, shall be in
cIined to favor action by Congress I'M
less it is made clear to me the con-
stitution stands in the way

erary and scientific, aggregating ap-
proximately 81, 600 in value, the hand
some library and studio of Jonathan

Four times the special policeman
in plain clothes was accosted by the
Migrants. He retired to a corner
and watched their movements. Upon
the approach OF a uniformed police
man they would cease their OPERA
tions. After the policeman had pass
ed they would take up their panhand-
ling.
When one of the Migrants accosted
a well dressed stranger and was re-
fused aid he became very abusive
and Howell then placed the vagrant
under arrest
The warrants apprehended by How
ell were Edward McAvoy Of 1906

John Barry, of Melbourne, Australia.
In city court today Judge Bartlett
sentenced each of them to Is days in
Jail. In city court Howell told the
