Child Labor

Since the Federal child-labor law
was declared unconstitutional by the
Supreme Court of the United States
there has been a great increase in the
employment of children under :16 in
minessand quarries and of children un-
der 14'ins factories.
This condition was revealed by an
investigation now being conducted by
the Children's Bureau of the Depart
ment of Labor. The worst condition
exists in North Carolina where chill
dren from 5 to 10 years old are
working eight hours a day. In 27C
canneries in Maryland and Virginia
1904 under ii years were found al
work. These conditions are not con-
fined to the South as there are 81 little
folks working in the mines and quar-
ries of Indiana, while Massachusetts
has 172 children under 16 years o.
age working more than eight hours /
day.
1t is one of the sad features of on
industrial life that the repeal of ;
most necessary and life-giving Law
should be followed by increased tot
for little ones.

Let's Get Oriented

"Wish John NJ. Avery, legislative
reference librarian, or State Auditor
Benjamin Gates would give the pub
lie a statement of the expenses of the
various departments of the state
government together with statements
| for preceding biennial terms, so we
could see just how much the reor-
ganization of the state government
two years ago has saved or cost the
people OF t.-Brattleboro
Reformer
This is ir line with what the
Messenger said the other night about
the ACCESSIBILITY of delving deeply into
state affairs and to make an estimate
of the value of our administrative
institutions There is a growing de-
mand for such an investigation. The
people want to get oriented, to dis
cover where they are at in their
public business. The matter of ex-
pense has become serious. A direct
state tax is unwelcome, in many
places it already is burden, and if
it is to be increased it will become
burden for all. Somebody should be
made to furnish unquestionable evil
dence as to the necessity of levying
direct taxes, and the people are will
ing to dispense with the frills and
tinsel of government. Let US have
the necessities and let US get along
without the luxuries which we can
not afford. And first, let US find out
exactly where we stand. A better
man to make impartial examination
could not be found than the one the
contemporary mentions, John NJ.
Avery, who has become something of
an expert on government whose adj
vice could more frequently than not

THE DAYr"
New York, November II, 1918
By Richard LIE Gallienne

"Thc Day"
o fatal and fantastic toast
Your idle princes of the sea
Drank to each other, making silen
boast,
With lifted glass, toward that immor
tai coast
Whose names are one-England anC
Liberty:
The dream that Spain,
And even Napoleon had dreamed il
vain.
"The Dayp
} When France should die in very deed
France whose grave soul is ever the
worlds need
Strange flower that we call France!
Flower that to 4 sword so swiftly
turns,
Changing disaster into dance,
And to dim lands that gropingly
ascend
Brings wisdom like a friend;
Whose altar burns
With such clear fame of courage to
the skies
That even her foes
Marvel that men so gay can be so
wise,
And go to battle as lovers to a rose.
"The Day"
When this Republic, born to make
men free,
With all its golden youth hot in its
veins,
Of antique Force an easy vassal
should be,
And wear the chains
Of kings once more that for three
hundred years
She Knocked across the sea.
"The DAY."
o Kaiser, can this be "the day.
You dreamed of? Did you mean
This day? November the eleventh day
Of the year nineteen hundred and
5 eighteen?

PRESS COMMENT
Induce Vermonters to Come Back

Induce Vermonters to Come Back
One of the greatest services to be
done Vermont in a generation is to
direct the current of Vermont youth
back to Vermont during the coming
year. Approximately 10000 young
men have gone out of the state dur
ing The past few years, chiefly to
enter the service of their country but
in considerable measure to work in
some business which was enjoying a
boom incident to the war. Already
many of the men have returned to
their home towns in Vermont but
many others are wayering in the bal
ance whether to pull up stakes COM
pletely and settle in some new loca-
ton. To encourage them to make
a decision to return to Vermont, as
well as to encourage other discharged
service men to take up their residence
in Vermont, would be good work for
some Vermont organization or state
department to take up. If Vermont
is not to lose out in the readjustment
of men and things after the signing
of the treaty of peace, then Vermont
must be awake to the rivalry which
