Child LABOR Law
OF 1916 IS INVALID
Supreme Court Files Decision
With Four Justices Dissenting

Washington, June 3.--The federal
child labor law of 1916 forbidding
Interstate shipment Of products of
child labor was today declared un-
constitutional and invalid by the SUI
preme court.
Justices Holiness McKenna,- Bran
aeis and Clark dissented. B 49,.
The child labor law was enacted
ir 1916 and forbids interstate ship
ment of industrial products from
plants in which children under IA
years of age are employed. or in
which children over IA but under 16
years of age work moro than eight
hours a day or more than six days
week.
The law was declared unconstitu-
tional by the federal district court
in North Carolina when Roland H.
Dagenhart secured restraining orders
to prevent the government from en-
forcing the act, and the Fidelity Man
ufacturing Co. which operates a cot
ton mill at Charlotte, from comply
Ing with the act by discharging Dag
enharts two minor children. The
government appealed the decision to
the supreme court, where the case
was heard in April, 1918.
The measure is of the utmost i'm
portance to labor all over the United
States, government attorneys pointed
out in the argument, though the i'm
mediate effect of its enforcem emit
would be chiefly felt IN southern states,
and particularly in the cotton mills.
Existing laws in number of states
| forbidding the employment Of chill
| dren would be threatened. the govern
| ment commended if the law were held
| invalid, because manufacturers with
| out child labor would have difficulty
| in competing with manufacturers in
states which allowed 1t.
While the law was founded on the
| clause of the constitution which simply
gives congress the right to regulate in
terstate commerce, the government
| conceded in court that its real purpose
| was not to control comm cree, but to
| control industrial conditions within
| safes. Attorneys attacking the valid
| ity of the measure founded their argu-
nent chiefly upon that. The effect Of
| the law they continued was to enforce
| within the borders Of certain states a
! social policy which hese states had re-
| peatedly refused to adopt into law
| themselves Congress, they commended,
had no right to legislate for unwilling
! states by use or the interstate COM
merce clause Of the constitution.
! Similar attempts to accomplish an end
| through the commerce controlling
| power had been nullifled by the court,
| they contended.
The governments argument was
| that the interstate commerce clause
| had been so construed by the court
| that congress was more than justified
l |.
| cisions of the court sustaining food
! and drugs inspection acts, and legis-
| lation to restrict shipment Of intoxi-
| Giants were cited AS instances of the
| similar of the power. The right
| to interfere with the police powers
| of states under the clause, if congress
| had good reason for the interference,
| was said to have been establish ed
| sufficiently before the court to make
| it certain that the ban on the products
! of child labor was CONSTITUTIONAL even
! though the North Carolina court de-
! clared that 1t was not.

WILL PERMIT LYNDEN FARMERS
TO FEED WHEAT TO STOCK

The ban on wheat feeding to stock
has been lifted. This makes possible
the return in the state of pre-war
feeding conditions, but the food ad-
ministration expresses the hope that
while this privilege has been extend
ed it will not be taken advantage of
and that farmers will continue to
make use of a balanced ration, all
those using wheat mixing coarse
grains with it as much as possible.
The telegram reads: I'm view Of
the fact that the price of other grains
is now much modified, there seems
to be no occasion for maintaining the
rules against the use of wheat for
feeding purposes, as it would only go
into use in localities where economic

ing chickens. 1t is our uniform desire
wherever the economic situation war
rants relaxation in the rules to do it
