We hear great deal about womans
rights, and the rights Of the negro, and the
rights Of the laborer. and the rights OF
all sorts and conditions of men, but we have
never yet made the decisive move we should
make toward giving their proper and
natural born rights TO the most important
class of people in the country.
That class is the children.
The children's rights are very simple
They have one right that is their due by
nature, and by every consideration of hui
manity and sound sense. and that is the
right TO be educated 20 be properly trained
before they are sent out into the struggle
for existence.
We are never going TO settle the child
question right until we have a federal law
that provides that every child born in the
United States shall be properly trained
until he reaches maturity.
Child labor laws point in the right direc-
ton. but they only point. They are david
ling and fidding with AN issue that do
mands decisive and prompt action.
II may be good TO pass a law that no
child under the age Of l6 shall be employed
over eight hours a day. but II Is like pass
ing a law that no man shall kick his wife
in the face more than twice a week.
Children have no business whatever in
the economic struggle. There are plenty
of husky men and women 10 attend TO that.
Instead of limiting the hours of child labor,
on trying TO ameliorate II, II should be
absolutely prohibited.
Children are entirely helpless in the mat
ter. They never asked TO come into the
