RED CROSS IS
 DOING MUCH
 FOR BELCLANS

WASHINGTON, Oct. % - Relief work by the American Red Cross in Belgium necessitated an expenditure of $l.A32.374 for the ten months end ing June 30. This amount went to provide comforts and medical assist ance for Belgian soldiers. 9O,00O resi- dents of that part of the little country outside of the German lines and the 600 900 Belgian refugees scattered all over France. England, Holland and Switzerland
 The sum ot $I.9i7325 has been ap- prOpriated to continue this work dur ing the last six months of this year Thus by the end of this year the Red Cross will since the war began have appropriated for use among the Bel gians the sum of $3,379. .699. These are the outstanding facts iE the current section of the War Councils report relative to the use being made of the Red Cross var fund
 The establishment of eighty-two canteens, which provide daily refresh ments for % 900 soldiers, the financial assistance given to nine hospitals that are combating disease among the civilian population and refugee colo nics, the construction and support of 9 barracks which shelters 400 children and the maintenance of q home for disabled Belgian soldiers are d few of the things the Red Cross has done for the courageous little kingdom and it's people
 About 5000 Belgian children in the countries mentioned are healthier and happier as result of day nurseries established by the organization.
 Cooperation between the Red Cross and the Belgian government has been so effective that this aid has been dis tri3uted largely through the medium of Belgian agencies. A donation of one million francs to the Queen for the support of the hospital service and another of half a million francs to insure the completion of a large hospital were among the first eXpen- ditures of the Red Cross in Belgium.
 The organization has established what is known as the Queens purse. a fund of five thousand francs, which Is distributed among the country's war victims. As free Belgium Is within easy range of German guns and bombs the hospitals in that territory have been destroyed from time to time, in creasing the cost of relief work.

The refusal of the Federal Govern
ment to employ children in essential
industries gives point to the Bureaus
contention that th7y should not be
allowed to be employed to furnish a
cheap source of labor for non-essen-
tials. The War Labor Policies Board
which is composed of representatives
Of all the Departments directly con-
cerned in the prosecution of the war.
has made definite ruling that chill
dren under fourteen shall not be en-
@oyed on war work and that children
between fourteen and sixteen shall
not be employed on war work for
more than eight hours a day or six
days week, or between z p. M and 6
a. m.
The section has been followed by
general order to all branch offices
from the Director of the United
States Employment Service The
order states that the policy of the
Service is to discourage all children
under sixteen from leaving school,
If a child under sixteen is placed
Federal standards of child labor will
be followed unless the standards of
the particular State in which he
works happen to be higher. In thai
case the State standards will be OBJ
served. An effort to put the childrei
in suitable and developing positions
will be made, and so far as possible
the conditions under which they work

The United States Boys Working
Reserve refuses to give Federal rec

1t maintains that children under six
teen should be kept in school by all
the pressure that can be brought to
bear. on the ground that the future
welfare of the Nation depends on the
educational training of it's youth.
The opening of the schools for the
fall term gave the Children's Bureau
an opportunity to find out to just
what extent children were leaving

Ohio, who so splendidly maintained
their line in the Argonne forests, and
