WANT WAGES KEPT DOWN.

Richmond, Va-The board of alder
men has defeated proposed ordinance
that would impose license of $1,000 a
year on labor agencies or any person
engaged in securing worlingmen for en-
ployment outside the state.
Trade unionists opposed the measure
on the ground that it was intended to
practically make it crime to induce
workers to leave the state. They took
full advantage of the statement made
by representatives of the chamber of
commerce that "the purpose of the or
dinance is to keep wages down by pro-
hibiting laborers from leaving the state
to secure employment in other states
where wages are higher.

people all men are brothers. There is
no distinction between the Jew and the
Gentle, the educated and the ignorant,
the bond and the free. Without distinc-
ton as to color, race or birth, those who
are strong must bear the inirmities of
those who are weak
All these things must have been in the
minds of the legislature when the
mothers pension law was enacted, and
it must have been their intention that
this law was enacted to aid those homes
that may be needy no difference whether
it should be the homes of the natural
lied or the homes Of the unnaturalized.
Therefore, answering your first ques-
ton specifically, am of the opinion
that widow of an unnaturalized person
is entitled to mothers pension, if all
the conditions set out in the law obtain.
Having answered your first question
in the affirmative, your second and third
questions need no answer.
Respectfully,
JOSEPH McGHEE,
Attorney General.

home can be given an allowance under
this section.
Attention is called to the fact that the
statute does not require as condition
precedent to the allowance that the
mother be employed "away from home"
but it provides that she be employed
away from her home and Children"
This means, | think, that whenever she
must engage in employment that will
take her away from her home or from
her children she is, if other conditions
are properly set, entitled to an allow
ance. If she must work regularly at
home for outside parties, her employ
ment can certainly be said to take her
away from her children, for even
though she is at home, in the same house
with them, she cannot, under such cir
cumstances, give them the proper care
and attention.
Attention is called to another provi-
sion Of section 1858, G., C., which tends
to strengthen the conclusion that the
law intends to assist all mothers en-
ployed at home as we'll as mother en-
ployed away from home That provi-
sion is this:
"Such allowance shall, in the judg-
ment of the court, be necessary to save
the child or children from neglect"
Now it is quite clear that mother
engaged regularly at home in outside
employment must of necessity, neglect
her children to at least some extent and
it is also clear that if the State should
make her an allowance, enabling her to
quit such employment and devote her
time at home to her children, the State
by such allowance would be saving these
children from neglect within the mean
ing of the provision of section 1888
just quoted.
For these reasons l am of the opinion
that under section 1888 General Code
an allowance may be made to mother
when in the absence of such allowance
she would be required to be engaged
regularly in outside employment in hel
own home, subject, of course, to the
other provisions of the statute
Very truly yours,
JOSEPH McGHEE,
Attorney General.

Hon. Bernard NJ. Focke, PROSECUTING
attorney, Dayton, Ohio:
DEAR SIR have a communication
signed by the Assistant Prosecuting At
torney OF your county, dated February
18th, in which you ask my opinion in
reference to certain questions therein
set out. Said communication reads as
follows:
81 would like for your department to
give ruling on the following ques-
tions:
"1st. Can widow of an unnatural
lied citizen receive Mothers Pension?
"2nd. If man takes out his first
papers before his death, can his widow
receive a Mothers Pension?
"3rd. Can a widow whose husband
was never naturalized receive pension
by accepting the oath of allegiance? ?"
The law which controls in the matter
of the questions suggested in your COM
munication is to be found in sections
1892 and 1888 of the General Code.
Section 1882 reads in part as fol-
lows:
For the partial support of women
whose husbands are dead, or become
permanently disabled by reason of ply
sical or mental infirmity, or whose hus-
bands are prisoners or whose husbands
have deserted, and such desertion has
continued for a period of three years,
when such women are poor, and are
the mothers of children not entitled to
receive age and schooling certificate,
and such mothers and children have a
legal residence in any county of the
State for two years, the juvenile court
may make allowance to each of such
women as follows"

ton evil, which has reached unheard-
of proportions in this state, and while
they have been defeated their education

the union, but when this failed to bring
results the company began discharging.

OPINION.

April 81, 1917.
Hon. James c. Stonghton, Probate
Judge, Logan, Ohio:
DEAR SRI have your letter of
March 10, 1917, asking for an interpre-
tation of section 1888 General Code,
referring to the allowance of mothers
pensions, especially in connection with
that provision to the effect that "the
allowance shall be made only when in
the absence of such allowance the
mother would be required to work regu-
larly away from her home"
Section 1888 General Code reads
"Such allowance may be made by the
juvenile court, only upon the follow
ing conditions: First, the child or chill
dren for whose benefit the allowance is
made must be living with the mother
of such child or children; second, the
allowance shall be made only when in
the absence of such allowance, the
mother would be required to work regu-
larly away from her home and children,
and when by means of such allowance
she will be able to remain at home with
her children, except that she may be
absent for work for such time as the
court deems advisable; third, the mother
must, in the judgment of the juvenile
court, be proper person, morally,
physically and mentally for the bring
ing up of her children; fourth, such al
lowance shall in the judgment of the
court be necessary to save the child or
children from neglect and to avoid the
breaking up of the home of such
woman; fifth, it must appear to be for
the benefit of the child to remain with
such mother; sixth, a careful prelimi-
nary examination of. the home of such
mother must first have been made under
the direction of the court by the proba-
ton officer, the agent of an associated
charities organization or humane So
ciety, or in the absence of such proba-
ton officer, society or organization in
any county, the sheriff of such county
shall make such investigations as the
court may direct, and a written report
of the result of such examination or in
vestigation shall be filed with the juven-
lie court, for the guidance of the court
in making or withholding such allow
ance"
The evident purpose of the mothers
pension law was to keep the mother at
home with her children and under such
circumstances as would afford her suf
ficient time to properly care for them,
upon the theory that where the mother
is a proper person it is better for the
children that they be kept at home I'M
der her influence and care than sent to
some institution which, however ma
ternal in its size, must of necessity af.
ford its juvenile inmates a degree of
protection and encouragement far be-
low that inspired by mothers love.
Section 1888 G. c. provides in part ::
"The allowance shall be made only
when in the absence of such allowance
the mother would be required to work
regularly away from her home and chill
dren and when by means of such allow
ance she will be able to remain at home
with her children, except that she may
be absent for work for such time as the
court deems advisable"

connection with this clause is whether
or not q mother who is regularly en-
ployed by outside parties in her own
