and thIe District of Columbia are
engaged in a campaign TO prevent
boys and girls from going to work
before they have the training they
need for successful and happy lives.

Altho children's year is officially
over, plans are under way in several
states TO make every year a chill
dren's year. A new consciousness Of
the value of the child and his need
for good health, wholesome play,
adequate schooling and protection
from premature work is said to be
indicated by laws contemplated by
the states. These include many bills
for the projection of children.
The children's bureau has planned
a conference with foreign experts
who have had a part in the work
done by European countries for the
protection OF children during the
stress Of war. The conference will
consist Of two distinct parts; First,
a small working committee of Ameri-
can authorities to be invited by the
secretary of labor, and members Of
the buHeau staff who will meet in
formally with the foreign guests at
Washington during the week Of May
6; second, a series Of regional con-
fFences in various parts of the coun-
try at which the discussion Of mini
mum standards can be continued un-
der local auspices and with referenc-
es to local conditions.

of reducing the cost of butter, cheese,

discussed in two conferences held in
the offices of Federal Food Admins
traitor Arthur Williams Thursday. The

here to first stabilize prices and then to
try and force down the prices near to
those of normal times.
Representatives of the wholesale egg
butter and cheese dealers met Mr.. Will

istrator said after the meeting that he
