goes back to her opportunity.
Child labor in factories is hardly
more tragic than child labor on
farms and in poverty stricken
homes. The w. C. C. A. watches
the homes and the farms and also
the factories. 1t makes sure that
false certificates are not given to
enable children to take up labor
before they are old enough and
strong enough.
1t keeps an eye on the weight of
children and sees to it that the
schoolteachers watch the bodily as
well as the mental progress of their
charges.
Many victims of the infantile
paralysis scourge Of 1916 are still
suffering, still in need of braces and

Intervention on behalf of chill

the courts or released on probation
is one of the activities. A study of
laws relating to children and their
codifcation and amendment is
another.
All the great universities offer
free scholarships to ambitious stu

children to get started on the road

ignorance which is deformity and

votes in Congress has been educa-
tional toward their coming state
campaigns. Several Senators have
said that they would vote for woman
suffrage if they received some evil
dence from their state that the peo-
pie wanted it. In number of these
cases woman suffragists have cam
paigned to get the state legislatures
to pass resolutions instructlng or
suggesting that the hesitant Senator
cast his vote for the Federal amend
ment. Senator McCumber, Of North
Dakota, was one of. the first Sena-

And in the last session Senator
Moses, of New Hampshire, who in
sisted that he was personally indif-

Miss Schneidermann is a member of

The international note has been
dominant also on account of the

England-Miss Margaret Bondfield,
Miss Mary r. Macarthur and Mrs.
Eleanor Barton. Miss Bondheld is
the only woman member of the
Parliamentary committee of the
Trade Union Congress of Great
Britain.
The questions of hours, pay, the
Yight Of collective bargaining and
details of working conditions in the
shops have been largely ignored,
either as being taken for granted in
these advanced days or as being too
trivial for attention at a time Of
world crisis when it is proposed to
rebuild the economic structure of
society from the foundation upon
the basis of complete democratic
zation of industry.

The solidarity Of labor of what

political organization and action
strongly urged. That a revolution

said, but political organization they
insisted would make the process
bloodless and beneficial for all.

League of this city will hold
mass meeting in the ball
room of the Pennsylvania Hotel,
Thursday evening, June ~, at s
o'clock, with view to bringing
pressure to bear on the new Con-
gress for the rejection of the pro-
posed peace treaty and the present
plan for league of nations. This
meeting is inspired by delegates just
returned from the recent convention
Of the International Committee of

urgent cablegrams from labor, and
Dudley Field Malone.
Lucia Ames Mead of Boston,
national secretary Of the Women S
international League, when inter
viewed for The Tribune, said the
weight of the testimony more than
bore out the statements of Frank A.
Vanderlip that the economic dis
organization of Europe is appalling.
Europe she said, sis going
straight to the devils of despair. The
people are living on their very last
savings while they wait, wait, wait,
for they know not what. For no one
knows what may be the outcome of
the discussions at Versailles.

[united Press Leased Wire Service.
WASHINGTON, June 20.-tDemand-
ing legislation forever barring Japan
ese immigration, Senator Phelan,, of
California, today warned America to
be ready for "war on the Pacific"
Appearing as witness before the
house immigration committee, Phelan
appealed to congress to save the
western states from economic death
at the hands of the Huns of the
east"
''The sore spot of the world is the
orient" Phelan said. 1T is place
to be watched for eventualities. Our
future wars will be on the Pacific,
and not on the Atlantic ocean.
'The Huns have come, the Huns
of the west. Those Japanese are not
to be compromised with; they must
be driven out like plague of To-
Gusts, which they equal in economic
destructiveness."
Conditions in the agricultural area
Of the Pacific states daily are be.
coming more unbearable, Phelan de-
clared. He reported thousands OF
cases" of men who had gone with
their families to California and
purchased land, only to find in a
year or two that they were sur
rounded by "despicable neighbors
who recognized no standards Of CIV
ilization or living" All the Japan
ese seek is money, and there has
been no limit to which they would
go to increase their world stores, the
California senator asserted.
Replying to questions regarding
alleged Japanese encroachment in
Mexico and South America, Phelan
continued:
"They are buying oil leases in
Mexico They are buying great
tracts OF land; they are part and
parcel of the Carranza machine. And
some day the Mexican problem and
the Japanese will be one and the
same"
