TO BE ADOPTED
BY MISSOURANS
fBy Associated Press)

JEFFERSON CITY, Mo-, March 81
Welfare Organization in this and 9th
er countries and state and govern
ment officials are closely watching the
progress of the Missouri Children's
Code" now before the state legisla-
ture.
The code of fifty-one child welfare
laws drawn by commission appoint
ed by Governor Gardner, is said to be
the most complete ever offered for
legislative action, Proponents ex-
press confidence of its enactment.
Enactment of somewhat similar
codes repeating old laws, revising 9TH
ers, and containing new regulations is
being sought in many states by the
National Committee for Standardizing
Children's Laws, which has the sup
port of the National Child Labor Com
mittee. But nothing has been at
tempted on SO broad scale and the
outcome in Missouri Is awaited as
somewhat of a test case, according
to Lucille B. Lowenstein of the Mis-
souri, commission.
The code provides for support Of
children born out of wedlock; raises
the age of consent to 16 years; es-
tablishes the marriage age at 10;
abolishes common law marriages.; pro-
vides for extradition of child desert
ers; provides for punishment of adults
responsible for child delinquency; es-
tablishes a state home for dependent
children; establishes a bureau for
mental detectives at the University
of Missouri to serve courts, schools
in institutions in examination OF de-
fectives, and provides special classes
in public schools for feeble-minded,
deaf, blind and crippled children.
Marriage of feeble-minded and epilep-
ties would be prohibited.
The codes of the labor section pro-
hibits employment of children under
IA year in any occupation unless an
employment certificate has been OBJ
tanned except during vacation Pc
RODS Boys over IL years old and
girls past Is could engage in street
trades if licensed and supplied with
badges after special examinations.
Children under 16 could not be en-
ployed more than hours day or
4S hours a week, and children under
81 could not work as night messen-
gers. Special permits would be re-

The words and the way Walt said

she loved him more than ever before.
The maternalness that throbs at the
soul of every woman rose powerfully
in her now She yearned to assure
Walt over and over of her love and
loyalty: to promise any and every
thing-taking no thought of how inn
possible promises sometimes are to
keep. She wished she had the magic
to summon success to his feet; to do

That Eight-inch Law
fBy Associated Press,

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind. March g.
Where is the provision in the Indiana
election law supposed to require that
eight inches of the legs of the voters
be visible to members OF the election
board while the voter is in the booth
marking his ballot?
Eyes it is in there" said L. W. Hen
ly, secretary of the Republican state
committee, when he was asked wheth-
er he had ever read it.
He said he could not tell off-hand
where the provision is.
"They tell me it is in the law, that
is all l know" answered Jesse Esch-
bach, speaker of the house and men,
Der of the legislature since 1907, when
he was asked concerning it.
Il have heard that there was such
a provision in the law" said Winfield
Miller, of indianapolis, an attorney,
who is a member of the election COM
mittee of the house. I'm fact mem
bers of the committee have discussed
the Importance of amending the law
to remove this feature which they
felt would be objected to by women,
given presidential suffrage by the leg
islature.
Mr. Miller and other members, who
examined the election law, thus far
have been unable to find the provi-
sion. The only thing that they have
found relating to the subject is the
provision for the booth being hung in
such manner that the members Of
the election board can tell there is
not more than one voter in the booth
at time. They are of the opinion
that the impression that the Eight
inch" provision is in the law results
from the custom of hanging the cur
tains SO that they will be eight inches
or more from the floor of the booth.
