Labor Clauses
Proposed for
Peace Treaty

Washington. April 29.-The nine
clauses proposed by the commission
on international labor legislation for
Insertion in the peace treaty as adopt
ed by the peace conference in plen-
airy session at Paris yesterday. were
made public here today by the State
department.
Among the principles incorporated
are a standard eight hour day, a
weekly day Of rest: the abolition of
child labor equality OF pay for men
ana women. and worl1mens right
Of association for all lawful pur-
poses
The text Of the clauses as adopted
follows:
THE high contracting parties,

International importance. have franz
ed 4 permanent machinery associat-
ed with that of The League of Ma
tons 20 further this great end. They
recognize that differences Of climate.
habits and customs, of economic op-
portunity and industrial tradition.
make strict uniformity in the condi-
tions Of labor difficult OF immediate
attainment. But. holding as they do
that labor remedies tprobably error
in tranSmlSSlON}. be regarded mere
~ as an article OF commerce. they
think that there are methods and
principles for the rectification Of la
hor conditions which all industrial
communities should endearor TO APP
ply SO far As their special circum-
stances will permit.
Among these methods and princi-
pies. the following seem 10 the high
contracting parties TO be OF special
and urgent Importance:
"First. the guiding principle above
mentioned enunciated that labor
should not be regarded merely as Il
commodity or article OF commerce.
Second. The right OF association
for all lawful purposes by the en-
pioved rs we'll as by the employers.
Third. the payment TO the employ ed
Of i wage adequate 20 MAINTAIN a rea-
sonabie standard of life as this IS IN
derstood in their time and country.
Fourth the adoption nj an eight
hour day on Il 4S-hour week as the
standard TO be aimed at where Il has
not already been obtained
Fifth. the adoption Of a weekly res
of at least a hours which should include
Sunday whenever practicable.
Sixth. the abolition Of child abo-
and the imposition If such limitation :
on he labor Of Young persons as shall
permit the continuation of their edu-
cation and assure their proper phy5i-
cal development.
Seventh. the principle that men and

Eighth. the standard set by law IN

Ninth. each state should make pro-
vision for a system Of inspection in

and reguIa tons for The protection of the
employed.

and principles are either complete or
final, the high contracting parties are
