NRw lille LABOR LAw.

II must be a matter % regret to
every enlightened citizen that the
United States Is now without any
adequate Federal legislation TO pro-
tect child workers. The old law has
been declared unconstitutional, and
no law has yet been enacted to take
its place Congress undeniably has
It's hands full al this time with emer-
gency war legislation, but surely il
could ind time to deal with this sit
uation.
The matter was put admirably by
Samuel Gompers. in a recent inter
view with President Wilson, when he
said Young America is being kill
ed in the trenches in France, and ii
is absolutely essential for the preser-
walton of the manhood and woman
hood of this country that better labor
conditions should be enjoyed by both
sexes. and particularly by the young.
In my opinion a child labor law can
be framed which will meet the objec-
lions of the Supreme Court and
which can be passed before the pres
ent session of Congress ends" The
President Is believed to agree with
this view.
In most of the other belligerent
countries the war has forced relaxa-
ton OF the protective measures here
tofore thrown around wage workers.
We cannot AFFORD to yield to any such
policy. IL may be necessary for
women and children 10 work longer
hours than ever. regardless of ulti-
mate consequences, when the able
bodied manhood OF a country is de-
pleted by war loses. We are as yet in
no such plight, and are not likely to
be
We do not need to sap our children's
strength and break their little backs
in order to win the war. We do need
TO treat them with more enlightened
consideration than ever before, so
that they may grow up to take the
places of those killed or crippled in
battle.

traying John Barleycorn or Robin Hop
as a woman. Faith. Hope. Charity,
Liberty. Purity. all such figures are
familiar enough 10 the world as wom-
en-. But john Barleycorn and Robin
Hop are invariably male. Indeed, as
a matter of fact, the two questions of
prohibition and equal suffrage are al
most as much Twin Sisters as Robin
Hop and John Barleycorn are Twin
Brethren.
And yet. when all has been said and
done. these are not the real grounds
for the support of equal suffrage.
Equal suffrage stands, and must stand
on that rock. 1t has no right TO stand
at all. Ii It does stand upon that rock,
then ultimately the gates Of hell will
not prevail against it. The simple
truth is that the only logical ground
on which il is possible to oppose fe-
male suffrage is the ground that
women are a lower species OF the hu-
man race than men. And as such the
women OF Europe and America would
have TO be regarded as lower type

world, who could qualify for the fran
chise II is quite true that a certain
great writer delivered himself once of
the famous epigram. Il expect that
woman will be the last thing civilized
by man." but of course, that writer
put that epigram into the mouth of a
typical reactionary, and spent his
whole life and his genius in arguing
for and demonstrating the exact re-
verse. Now If the civilization OF man
is the civilization of John Barleycorn
and Robin Hop, it is quite likely that
women will be the last thing civilized
by ii, and il is emphatically TO be
hoped so. Indeed there is a certain
expectation, which may be reduced 10
a certainty, that the civilization OF
those two worthless will be obliterated
at the ballot-box, as soon as women
are allowed TO throw their votes into
it.
1t has taken several centuries for
men to convince themselves of the
equality OF the sexes, and it is perfect
~ clear that only small minority of
them have yet done so. IL was Dis
raeli who declared that the doom OF
the Turk was written in his treatment
of women, and Disraeli, though sup
porter of women, was no enemy TO the
Turk. But Disraeli saw clearly enough
what his own words implied, and that
was that the treatment of women by
men is the test OF the civilization OF
men. The Zulu. squatting on his
launches, and causing his women to
do his work, the Chinaman, regarding
them frankly as a thing without
rights, the Mohammadan or the Hindu
imprisoning them within the depths OF
the haram of the zenena, are all writ

Answer To @The Volunteer.

Answer To "The Volunteer"
You didn't wait to be drafted,
Nor led away with band,
You didn't state claims for exemption,
You nobly held up your hand.
Nor did you enjoy fine banquet,
And though no one gave you cheer,
Although we admire the drafted man
We all LOVE the Volunteer.
Since nobody gave you farewell feast,
Nor uttered kindly word
The puff of the engine, the grind of
the wheel,
Perhaps were all that you heard.
You were off to the Training Camp
hustled,
To be trained for nearly a year
But never think you are forgotten
You brave, noble Volunteer
Now, perhaps, some day in the future,
AS your little boy sits on your knee,
And hears what you did in the strug-
gle,
Won't his big eyes sparkle with glee?
You will hear him say in his childish
way,
With a laugh and shout and a
cheer,
You weren't a Stacker, hey, Were
you Pop?
Gee! You were Volunteer"
So just as that miniature man of yours,
Will be proud of his daddy's deed,
We people at home, you are lighting
for
Are giving your acts just heed
Though the drafted man is noticed
now,
just wait for the brighter years,
Well crown you with Glory and cher
ish the names

Several important policies were drtcr-
mined urnn by the board Of directors
in connection with the War chest cam
paiEn. II was decided by tn" board
of directors that the War Chest cam
paign would include all organized war
relief agencies. such rs the American
Rcd Cross, y. NJ G. A. war work coun-
Gil. Y W. G. \. war work council, tho
Jewish war relief. Salvation Army and
similar organizations and approved war
relief agencies 1t was also unan-
mously decided that the War Chest
should take I'm all local charities which
nrr approved by the board of directors
Of the War Chest association. This lat
ter policy was adopted owing tn tn" fact
that In every city where the War Chest
is in operation 1t has been found adj
visable 10 include local charities. rs
these institutions must hn kept up dur
ing the war and their needs provided
for. In cities where the local charities
have not been included. the citizens have
been forced to conduct campaigns 10
caro- for local agencies. which is in
direct conflict with the War Chest
idea. In this connection it is we'll 10
bear in mind that no funds will be
given out of the War Chest Ia any
war relief or local agencies unless
unanimously approved by the board Of
directors. TIL" important thing is that
the War Chest will absolutely climinnt to
all further campaigns with tn" "Nccp-
ton of tho lied Cross membership.
which is purely q personal matter hr-
tween tho individual and Tho Rcd Cross
organization. II WAS further the con-
scnsus of opinion Of tho board nf d
rrctors that tn" subscription OF the
War Chest no ;akrn for one entire. year
and not for tine duration Of the war.
This policy WAS determined upon for
the reason that IL would be difficult
TO estimate in advanc" the needs Of the
various war relief activities and local
charities. Furthcrmurr, the salaries
and incomes of the contributors are
not fixed and consequently contribution
To the War Chest might be increased or
decreased after the first year.
