Children Refused Working Papers,
but Nurses Fit Them For
Industry.

Working papers are denied to more
than a thousand children each year in
New York city because they are not
physically able to work.
Every rejected child IS turned
over to the nurses of the Bureau of
Child Hygiene, and they are respon-
sible for fitting the unfit for industry
The nurses see that minor defects
OF eyesight, hearing. teeth and breath
ing are corrected by taking the chill
dren TO clinics, referring them TO
school physicians or hospitals Their
serious work, however, is with the
chronic cases 1t requires more than
mere nursing skill to handle these
cases Sometimes it calls for social
genius.
This is illustrated by the very typi-
cal instance of girl of fifteen who

If there is one child with the wife,
the allowance is S25 a month; two
children, $3.50, and so on mp t-le
point where with a wife and SIX
children Uncle Sam pays $50 month

but it is at least a recognition of

ity.
Allowances are also provided for
dependent parents, SO a month for
each, and for brothers, sisters and
grandchildren, SIS a month for each,
with the proviso that in any case the
government will not pay to the de-
pendents of any man more than $50

No mawkisk prudery entered into
the drafting of these provis ons: by

soldier may secure for it the full
governmental allowance. the only
provision being that if it is born af
ter Dec. 81, 1917, it must be born
in the United States. So in the
case of wife, there need to be no
legal marriage if there is proof that
they have lived together as man and
wife for two years prior to enlist
ment.
Uncle Sam also sees 70 it that his
soldiers do not throw all the burden
of caring for dependents on his
broad shoulders, by making it com
pulsory for each man who has left a
wife or child behind to pay over TO
them through the treasury at least
SIS month and as much more as
will equal the allowances which
Uncle Sam makes up to half mans
pay. Thus for the man in serv ce
abroad who has left a wife and child
behind, the man will have to assign
TO them at least $3.50 a month to
which the government will add rs,
making a total of $44.80 which they
are sure to receive.
The old pension system is wiped
out by the new and far more equt-
able system of compensation for
death and disability.
This compensation differs from
that provided in any other law. It
takes the family as the unit that is
serving the nation, not the individual
man. 1t bases the compensation on

elor will get only $50 a month. the
man with a wife and four children
will get SIS. Twenty dollars is add

if there is a dependent widowed
mother; but if he loses both hands or
both feet, becomes totally blind or

he is married or not.
II he dies from injuries or disease

sums ranging from $50 to SIS

No distinction is made between a
private and the highest officer.
In addition every man may take
out insurance up TO $4,000 at the
actual cost of furnishing such insur-
ance in peace times-the entire ma
ton through the treasury bears the
war risk. This insurance is wisely
safe guarded TO protect it from credi-

apparently is not able even to settle

Copyright. 1918; all rights reserred.
PARIS, Dec. 6.-The Zurich
correspondent of lie Journal
telegraphs that a siege of Ber-
lin is being prepared by the ter
rorists, led by Liebknecht. The
terrorist counter revolution was
to have started Tuesday, but
action was postponed.
Everything was in readiness
for the coup tonight. Motor
trucks rushed about with am
munition and arms. Liebknecht
has at his disposal 10000 armed
supporters and has postered the
city with proclamations saying
he will soon be in power. The
Spartacus group already has
control Of the majority of the
public buildings.
The correspondent says he is
informed from the most reliable
source that the former German
military leaders are aiding in
spreading the Bolshevist propa-
ganda, and that Won Tirpitz is
one of the leaders in this enter
prise, the theory being that if
the terrorists gain control, the
Allies will come in and put them
down.
The majority of the people of
Berlin, the correspondent adds,
are sincerely hopeful that the
Entente will send troops there as
quickly as possible.
