Some Opposition

NIGHT MESSENGERS

stan Correspondent.


DOVER, Del, Jan. 23.--Representa
tive Downward yesterday afternoon
introduced the new Child Labor bill
In the House. This bill was brought
to Dover by Charles II. Grantland.
now State Child Labor Inspector and
has been approved by the Labor Com,
mission Of Delaware. Il has been
contended by the commission and by
Inspector Grantland that the present
law is too complicated and that
changes were needed to meet existing
conditions and to make the State law
conform with the new federal act
One of the most important changes
in the new bill from the present law
ds the including Of canneries under
its provisions, they being exempt az
this time. This is one OF the changes
It Is claimed is necessary to make the
State and federal laws consistent. Il
is reported that there viii be consid-
cradle opposition to the new bin and
especially that section bringing the
canneries under its provisions.
Another change contained in the
new bill will prohibit, should IL be-
come law. any person under 81
years OF age 10 work as messenger
for telegraph, telephone or meSenger
companies in the distribution, cOllec-
tfOn. transmission or delivery Of
goods or messages before o'clock
in the morning or after 10 o'clock in
the evening OF any day in any town
or city having a population OF over
10000 persons This would only
effect Wilmington. Under the pres
ent law boys under 16 years of age
are prohibited from working as mes
sengers after 10 o'clock at night.
The present educational qpalifca-
tion for obtaining employment which
requires that a child shall have at
tended school 1870 days during the
year previous to the time OF seeking
employment, is also changed in the
bill introduced yesterday. It will
require that a child must have been
in the sixth grade in the public
school before a certificate for employ
ment can be given. The bill further
provides that no child shall work
more than six days a week or more
than eight hours a day before
O'Clock in the morning or after
l,oclocl at night.
Representative Downward also intro
duced a bill to amend the ten hol
womeu's law. which amendments hav
