In explanation of the information
thus conveyed. it is stated. many of
the dealers will retire with money
enough to enable them to live with

save money and seek recreation at
places other than barrooms.

that when the constitutional amend
ment becomes effective there will be
some shipping of intoxicants out of
the country 1t is said there is no
provision against exporting the liquor
to other countries where the laws do
not prevent the handling of intoXi
cants. and liquor men are quoted as
saying much of the liquor in bonded
warehouses will be disposed of this
way.
1t is believed that July 1 will end
much of the bootlegging in this city.

plies stored in their homes probably

enough to land them behind the bars
before they make a success of their
lawlessness.
On the other hand, it is stated. Bal
timore police authorities expect they
will experience trouble coping with
the bootleggers. There is plenty liquor
in the Monumental city and several
smaller cities in Maryland, and it is
reasonable to suppose. the police say.
that much of it will find its way to
thirsty residents by the bootleg route.

One of the annual reports read yes

three years old, has membership of

the teacher who is suing the school
board for suspending her for week
without a formal trial. Neither was
the question of seeking to have a
teacher appointed to the board of

All such persons are not apprehended,

Limit Minors Working Day.

The working day of minors shall
never be longer than eight hours and
for children between sixteen and
eighteen years shall be less than the
adults working day. Night work and
employment in hazardous occupa tions
shall be prohibited. Minors shall be
paid at a rate WHICH for full time
employment would yield at least the
necessary cost of proper living.
1t was decided that a central en-
ployment agency for children should
be established, offering occupational
advice and supervision during the first
years of employment. The section on
employment certificates sets forth
uniform requirements as to proof the
child must furnish of age, education
and physical fitness.
To protect babies and small children
the conference recommended the pas
sage of laws requiring that births be
registered within three days and that
adequate treatment be provided for
the eyes of the new born lnfant:
Health centers should be established
to supervise infants and children and
to give advice as TO their care ana
feeding. A public health nurse Tor
every 1000 of population is needed
to give advice to mothers in their own
homes.
Emphasis was placed on the need for
special attention to the mental NY

ment of state child welfare commits
