WOULD HAVE BEEN
EMBARRASSING

Ten thousand dollars may hH need
ed to properly enforce the ~so-calIcd
| child labor law enacted by the recent
General Assembly, but the House of
! Representatives probably did the :u.ht
thing by refusing, in the closing hours
of the session, to pass the Senate bill
increasing the appropriation from
$4,000 to S10.O 900 per anIIm The pro-
position did not look good III its face
and there is small wonder that the
members SHE'D at the idea Of paying
$4,000 more q year to the commission
named in the act finally enacted than.
was asked for in the Connor SaUn !ers
bill offered by the Department of lab
or and Printing, for 4 similar purpose.
The proposed increase i'll tile appro-
priatiOnn was an admission by the
proponents Of the measure ratified
that they had secured the passage Of
a bill without providing means Of en-
forcement. But, perhaps that WIS the
intention at the outset.
OF course a greater sun will &c
needed for the use of the commission
created by the passage of the suLsti-
tUte measure, for the reason GIlt no
executive officer is named in the bill
and no provision was made tor rcnt-
ing and equipping an office. Had ma
chinery for the enforcement of the law
been placed in the Department Of La
Dor, the Commissioner would have
been the executive officer, with ade-
quate quarters already equipped for
handling the work without difficulty.
One additional clerk to take care OF
the reports of inspectors would have
been needed, per haps, but the appro-.
priation asked for III the Department
bill was considered sufficient to maize
a mighty good start.
Anyway, $4,000 is all that the De,
partment of Labor asked for in tie
bill proposed and the people of the
State would have bea1 justified i'll pro-
testing a seemingly unnecessary APP
preparation, in that the suggestion for
it had been created by the u~?itenahie
position of a few ~preiuGiced legis!a-
tors who failed 70 give Il valid reason
for their actions IN the Child lanor
fight. Spending, without apparent eN-
cuse, $4,000 annually Of the peoples
money would haze been hard to ex-
plain in the next Campaign anG mem
bers Of tF7 House decided not to Gre
ate the ie:Ie. As It matter of fact, 20
justification for such a course could
have been made and the democratic
party may congratulate itself on hav-
ing been spared the embarrassment
of fleeing the treasury of the State
of $4,000 annually for two years by
the refusal of the House to become q
party to all attempted correction Of an
inexcusable blunder in the enactment
of a child labor law.
It is better to be safe than sorry. !

them cut. and another making pros
titution a dangerous practice in North
Carolina. IL. A bill that will pre-
vent incurable lunatics and imbeciles
from prupagating their species. In
fact the Legislature of 1919 passed
every measure recommended by the
! State Roard of Health and by so doing
did more for the protection Of human
health and life and for increasing the
vital efficiency of the average citizen;
than amy previous General Assembly.
4. Roads. Here was the knottiest
problem of all, but out of all the
wrangling and conflicting vie;5s there
, has come a law that will mean a State
I system of highways touching every
community in North Carolin1. These
splendid roads viii be constructed Iy
IT,. State, the Federal Government and
the counties, each sharing in the cost,
the Federal Government putting up
one-haIf. the State one-fourth and the
county o~ne-fourth. Uunder this ROAD
ACr UPWARDS Of twelve million dol
lars viii he spent ii building roads IN
the State dring the next two years.
At three thousand dollars a TEtla this
will construct foul thousand miles OF
road, or more than enough to link uP
every county seat in the State with a
splendid highway. Another bill was
passed making it mandatory for coun-
ty authorities to levy a tax sufficient
to maintain roads, the amount of the
so levied to be in proportion to the
amount of bonds issued for road
building.
5. Child Labor. We come now to
one Of the failures of the Legislature.
A careful study of the child labor law
enacted by this General Assembly con-
vinces us that it is not adequate and
is but little better than the law we al
ready had on the subject. The new
law creates a Child Labor Commission
and appropriates six thousand dollars
for enforcement. The State Commits
OF Labor is not on this Com
mission, and the law names no execu-
tive officer. It virtually establishes d
State Department. We GO not be-
lieve it will be possible for the Com
mission to employ an executive OFF,
ser, equip him for business. maintain
lis Office, give him inspectors anG
;5Eer assistants with the meager az
preparations Of six thousand dollars.
Another very serious objection to the
new law is that it does not conform
the present Federal Law IN the sub
Jet and as a result the .-aoor Depart
in Washing / will take over The
work in this State thai should be

THE GOVERNOR SCORED
SOME POINTS.

The General Assembly incorporated
a number Of Governor Bickett's re-
concentrations into law and ignored
others. His proposition to erect a new
building for the Department Of Ag~.-
culture on the campus of the North
Carolina College of Agriculture ana
Engineering was turned down fiat.
Likewise his idea OF a highway eaI

THE LEGTSLATURE-ITS RECORD.

The General Assembly of 1919,
which is due to complete it's work to-
day, Will be known in history as the
Great Tax Reform Legislature. IN
some respects it failed to measure up
to all that was expected Of it, but iGr
record on taxation is without flaw.
No one can deny that it's Legislation.
dealing with this subject is founde1 OF.
iustice and progress, and marks the
highest order Of achievement. The
General Assembly of 1919 has done
for our tax system what no othes
Legislature in all the States history
has ever dared to attempt. But it's
achievements by no means stop with
that. A careful review of lis work re-
veals a record of progress that will be
hailed with delight by all forward
looking citizens. The important mea~
sures passed may be summarized az
follows:
=. Taxation. A bill submitting an
income tax amendment to a vote Of the
people; and an act providing for re-
valuation of property, incorporating
the QUESTIONABLE method OF deter !
mining values. The machinery for en-
forcing this act is almost identical
with that of the Selective Draft Svs-
tenn. 1t will be sc effective IN opera
ton that, as. the Governor says, any
person who endeavors 10 conceal his
prof. erty or the real value &C the same

world to come"

of better schools. This Legislature,
therefore. deserves little credit for its
