FAC ORG INSPEC TOR NELSON
AFTER BOWLING ALLEYS
Chief Factory Inspector Oscar F.
Nelson, lately appointed to the ma
tional counsel for defense, finds that
war conditions are affecting the child
labor situation even before the troops
are leaving for the front.
In response to the widest possible
publicity calling attention to viola
lions Of the child labor law in bowl
ing alleys, employers invariably claim
that they cannot afford to pay mems
wages for pin bOys'-Or rather men
and that there are no boys above

ent stringency in available labor ma
terial keeps up, employers assert to
Mr.. Nelson, it may be necessary for
the players to set EN- up, them
selves or foregO the pleasures of the
bowling game.
Scarcity of labor" Mr.. Nelson ad-
vises, 'is no justification for viola
ton. of the law. The law of Illinois is
specific in stating that no children
under the age of Is years shall be
employed as pin boys in any bowling
alley. This prohibition covers all en-

been built up would provide enough
trained officers and non commissioned
Officers to train a million or more men
at a time if that We're necessary.
The war department bill, however,
proposes to organize now only the first
two classes Of the new army making
Il total of more than 100000 troops
available possibly within IA year and a
half or two in two years at most.
The sum of nearly $4,000, 600. 600
asked by congress to carry out this
program deals only with the first
years preparation. Behind it stands
the need of an equal sum for reserve
supplies of ammunition cannon and
other war material if the army is to
be employed in actual war.
Included in the present estimates
are the cost of environments to house
the troops. Presumably the previous
plans of the general staff for l6 mill
tary districts will be carried out. This
would provide for IL complete and
fully equipped army divisions and
while it is not proposed to create any
additional tactical units of the ma
tional guard steps will be taken to
fill in the gaps in the present guard
Structur" with cavalry artillery en-
gine"rs or other special troops, COM
lieting the tactical organization of
those forces on sound military lines.
Staff officers regarded the plan
proposed as the most effective that
could be worked out to meet the pres
ent emergency, They regard the cX-
yansion of the regular army and the
bringing of both that force aud the
present regiments of the guard to full
war strength as vital, since for five
months they expect to employ these
agencies as a huge school from which
trained officers and non commissioned
officers can be turned out. No other
way presents itself to meet the need
for officers, although additional steps
are being planned to organize new of.
ficers' schools ana supplement tn,

Editor Miss0lllian.

Fditor Miss0ulian
1t having been brought to our at
tention that one of our opponents has
made the statement to the effect that
the districts cash on hand is short
some 100000 of the amount on hand
year ago. we wish to submit the fol-
lowing figures in denial thereof,
Comparison of the funds in the
hands of the county and state to the
credit of the district for the past three
years show the following balances in
the general and interest funds as of
March LIST: SS1.5s5.15; 1916, ss4-
544.23; 1917. SIS. 2O5.25. It will be
readily observed that there is consid-
cradle increase to the credit of the
district over the two previous Years.
This will bear out our statement made
in a previous issue OF The Missoulian
to the effect that the finances of the
district were never in better condition.
The Improvement in the financial con-
dition has been made without any in
crease in the taxes.
During the past year the district
has been called upon to make some
very heavy expenditures that do not
ordinarily occur in one year, viz,
$3.50 paid for block of ground in
DAILY addition, $4,000 for the add-
ton to the Willard school, 100000
for insurance which Is paid only every
three years. These amounts We're all
paid from the general fund and in
view of the very favorable balance to
the credit of the district bespeaks
careful handling of its funds.
In connection with few items Of
saving. Last year we had on the
books $57 100000 in outstanding bonds
that were drawing five per cent per
annum: these We're refunded into an
issue drawing four and one half per
cent. This will mean saving of
over $4,000 in interest to the district.
In addition to this the district re-
ceived n premium of ST, 400 on the sale
of these bonds The expense in con
neetion with the above was less than
$500. which means a saving of over
$4,000 on this one item.
Our recent Legislature passed Il bin
placing the ianitors on an eight hour
day basis. which. on the face Of it
meant an additional $1,000 per amman.
The buildings and grounds committee
Immediately held a meeting with the
janitors and by adjusting the working
hours and making an increase in the
rate of pay of the janitors, We're able
to effect a saving OF over Sc, 900 a year
on this item.
Realizing that statistics 1nd figures,
long drawn out. are uninteresting we
will not dwell on the matter further.
The above figures will show the inter
est of the present hoard members IN
the duties entrusted to them without
going into further detail.
Respectfully submitted,

it was to the advantage not only of
our country, but of civilization that we
should keep out at this time. But after
all it was not because | was afraid of
war. The American people may prefer
peace, but they are not guilty of cow
ardice; it is not because we are afraid
to fight.
Now the situation is changed-the
president Of the United States, who is
the spokesman of the people with the
nations of the world, has asked us to
declare war, and we have a resolution
to that effect before us on which we
must vote. We must vote to decide on
war or vote down the resolution. What
position would we be in if we should
vote down the recommendation of the
president and what would be the effect
on the rest of the world and on our
self respect?
The only thing left for us to do is
to stand by the president elected by
the people. We cannot say to the
world that our only goal is gold, that
our only desire is wealth. We must,
when the question is presented to us,
declare we will maintain the rights of
Americans abroad. as well as at home
There is a difference between a
deliberate affront and an incidental
injury. We have had incidental in
jnries from both England and Ger
many. A deliberate affront long ago
would have brought a declaration of
war. Now we are required to say that
a deliberate affront has been made by
Germany and there is nothing left for
us to do but follow the recommends

in war and maintain our rights and
