CHILDREN NOT SUFFICIENTLY
SAFEGUARDED-JANE adams

That the children of this country
are in need Of further protective legis-
lation is pointed out by Miss Jane
Addams in a letter to the National
Child Labor Committee, in which she
endorses the plans for a nation wide
observance Of Child Labor Day. The
Committee has designated Sunday,
January 25th, for its observance in
churches, January cath in synagogues,
and January 26th in schools and clubs
In approving this plan, Miss Adams
says:
Because certain states have secur-
ed satisfactory legislation for the pro-
lection of children, it is easy to assume
that it is no longer necessary to push
child labor reform and similar mea-
sures, forgetting the wretched con-
ditions still obtaining in vast areas
OF the United States. One day set
aside for the discussion of the needs
or children. viewing the subject in
its highest moral aspects and urging
a furtherance of child welfare as a
religious duty would. to my mind. be
most valuable"
Secretary of the Interior Franklin
X. Lane has written a letter to tAe
Committee endorsing the plan. He
says: Il think it most appropriate that
you should observe a Child Labor
Day in January. Child labor will
soon be a thing unknown. The child
will be given its chance to grow"
Emphasizing the importance OF at
tentiOn to matters Of education and
child conservation in a constructive
peace-time program, U. 5. Commits
sioner Of Education p. p Claxton
says:
IF the world war, now being
brought to a close by the ratification
of peace treaties, has any adequate
result it must be in a much larger
measure of freedom and democracy

grades of bristles normally came from

children in these regions pluck the
bristles from the backs of the hogs
each crop being sitter than the pre-.
cedlng. They are gathered up by
travelling peddlers. These bristles
gradually found their way TO the Mini
Novgorod fair, where the bristle dress
ers graded, cleaned and bundled them
ready for the use of the brush manu-
facturer.
The best grades came from Russia
and northern China. The Russia bris-
tie can be bleached white. while the
northern China bristle is so black that
It resists the bleaching process.
In the past the bristle market was
controlled by Germans. who forward
ed them to Paris and London. where
the best OF our brushes are manufac-
tured. From the beginning of the war
the bristle has been almost a thing
of the past. Prices have been doubled
and quadrupled. The quality of the
bristles has become poorer and the
prices higher and higher for both
tooth and hair brushes England has
placed an embargo on brushes. Very
few French brushes are reaching our
country and these are Of an inferior
quality. During the first year Of the
war the largest brush factory in
France was exactly between the front
line trenches.
We have several tooth brush fac
tories in the United States which will
be able TO meet the demand as long as
their reserve supply of bristles holds
out.
Some time ago a fairly good quality
OF brush could be purchased at from
10 to % cents each. The same brush
now retails for so cents and the best
brushes now sell for about a dollar
apiece. Ii tooth brushes keep on go
