ANNOUNCE LABOR
CLAUSES ADOPTED
FOR PEACE TREATY
Provide Standard 8Hour
Day, And Equal Pay For
Men And Women.

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 standard eight-hour day, week
day OF rest, the abolition of child la
Dor. equality of pay for men, women,
and workmen's right of association
for all lawful purposes"
The text of the clauses as adopted
follows: "a.
THE high contracting parties, rec
ognizing that the we'll being. physical,
moral and intellectual, of industrial
wage earners is of supreme internal
tional Importance, have framed per-
! manent machinery associated with
that OF the league OF nations to fur
Their this great end. They recognize
that difference of climate. habits and
customs of economic opportunity and
! industrial tradition make strict uni
formity i'll the conditions of labor diff
! fifult of immediate attainment. But,
holding as they do, that labor rem
edies tprobably error in transmits
siom be regarded merely as an ar
! ticle of commerce, they think that
there are methods which all indus
, trial communities should endeavor to
apply so far as their special circum-
+; stances will permit.
Name Urgent Principles.
Among these methods and princi-
pies the following seem to the high
contracting parties to be of special
and urgent Importance:
"First-The guiding principle above
enunciated that labor should not be
, regarded merely as a commodity or
, articles of commerce.
"Second-The right of association
for all lawful purposes by the employ
ed as we'll as by the employers.
"Third-The payment to the en-
ployed of wage adequate to main
tain a reasonable standard of life
as this is understood in their time
and country.
Pine Bluff daily graphic. (Pine Bluff, Ark.) 1893-1942, 1919-04-30

"Fourth-The adoption of an eight
hour day or a 4S-hour week as the
standard to be aimed at where it has
not already been obtained.
'Fifth-The adoption Of weekly
rest of at least "a hours which should
include Sunday whenever practicable.
"Sixth-The abolition of child labor
and the disposition of such limita-
lions on the labor of young persons
as shall permit the continuation Of
their education and assure their prop
er hpysical development.
Ask Equal Pay.
"Seventh-The principle that men
and women should receive equal re-
enumeration of equal value.
"Eighth-The standard set by law
in each country with respect to the
conditions of labor should have due
regard to the equitable economic
treatment of all workers lawfully
resident therein.
''Ninth-Each state should make
provision for system of inspection
in which women should take part in
order to insure the enforcement of
the laws and regulations for the pro-
| lection of the employed.
without claiming that these meth
DDS and principles are either COM
plete or final, the high contracting
parties are of the opinion that they
are we'll fitted to guide the policy
! of the league of nations and that il
adopted by the industrial communi-
ties who are members of the league
and safeguarded in practice by an
adequate system of such inspection
they will confer lasting benefits upon
! the wage earners of the world"

Average Age Of American
Soldiers Killed in France
Records ShOtU is 23 Years

The bureau records for the per-
iod from Jan. /, 1919, to June reveal
that more than half the men change
their residence after being mus
tered out of the service and a cur
rent magazine has brought out the
fact that census statisticans are no
longer able to compile figures for
territory less than statewide, be-
cause of the continual state of fux
OF our population.
The records of the bureau further
state: According to the estimate
made by the department Of agrl-
culture, the loss in man power TO
farms as the result of forme r
service men giving up the farm
life for the city upon their return
from the war, eventually, after the
general restlessness brought about
by the war has subsidized, will be
about 100000" Evidently the de-
partment can echo the plaintiya
chant about How yu gonna keep
'em," etc.
In order to reach the men who
have allowed their insurance to
lapse, the bureau of war rick in
surance has organized a field force,
which will endeavor insofar as pos
sible to conserve these policies. 1t
