WOULD have U. S.
Get LABOR JOBS
Secretary Wilson Says Fee
charging Agencies En-
courage Idleness.

Creation of a permanent nationwide
chain of government employment
agencies was urged on Congress yes
terday by Secretary of Labor wilson.
in letters to Senator Kenyon. OF the
Senate Education and Labor Commit
tee, and Representative ]. M. c.
Smith. chairman OF the House Labor
Committee.
This legislation Is necessary to wipe
out private fee-charging agencies
which, Wilson charged. have encour-
aged restlessness and shifting among
labor. resulting in great economic
loss.
"Inasmuch as the interests of pri-
vate. fee-charging ageAcies are fos-
tered by constant shifting of workers
from one employment to another.
they are under constant temptation.
to which. unfortunately, they some.
times yield. to encourage restlessness
among laborers and thus increase the
evil and economic loss inherent in a
large labor turnover" Secretary Will
son stated.
Secretary Wilson urged the Con-
grsssional committee to frame their
bills SO that the cost of government
employment bureaus would fall
equally on the State and the Federal
treasury.

Republicans Favor League
And So Do Democrats,
Says Commoner.

Atlanta Ga. May ST cannot be-
lieve that the league of nations will
ever become a party issue" William
Jsnninss Bryan declared here today
in an interview.
"A majority of the Republicans
favor the league. apparently. while
an overwhelming majority of the
Democrats support it, Bryan said.
'I do not believe there is any question
OF the final ratification of the league
covenant. Public opinion will compel
il. because the public wants to pre-
vent such terrible conflicts as the
world has just witnessed"
Bryan said the attempt to nullify
or delay the operation of the national
prohibition amendment would fail He
stated he was particularly impressed
with data he secured in Birmingham
recently. showing the splendid results
of prohibition"
Bryan is on a speaking tour which
will take him into every section Of
the country. He will complete his
tour of the Southern States with an
address in Savannah on Sunday, and
will then leave for a hurried trip to
his home at Lincoln. Nebr.. before

Labor Department An
nounces New Law Drafted
To Protect Children.

A set Of strict child labor laws. as
drawn up here at a recent conference
on child welfare. are under contem-
plation in nine Of the larger cities
OF the country. the Labor Department
has announced
These laws, II was stated, would
make Is the lowest age at which a
child may go to work in any occu-
patton. except that during vacation
periods children between II and 10
may be employed in agriculture and
dolaestic service. Children between Z
and IS should have nine months of
school. either full or part time. each
year. In addition to being 16. child
must have finished the eighth grade
before he may be employed. and then
education must be provided for him
during the next two years at day
time continuation schools.
Under the laws, the working day
OF minors should never be longer than
eight hours. For children between Is
and IS the working day should be
shorter than that for adults. Minors
should be paid at a rate which. for
full time equipment. would yield at
least the necessary cost of proper
living They should not be employ
ed at night nor in hazardous occupa-
tions.
In order to protect mothers and
babies these rules provide that pa
rental care. trained attendance at
childbirth, adequate nursing and do
mestic assistance should be made
available for every mother.
More health centers would be estab-
lished and a public health nurse Sc
cured for every 1000 of the population.
Only as a last resort, would the rules
permit the removal of a child from
his home.
The appointment of State child well
fare commissions and frequent re-
vision Of child welfare legislation are
recommended

FOOD FOR THE JINGo

There is one thing worth more
than the League Of Nations that
ever were protected or ever will
be as a preservation of peace
That is the maintenance OF a
kindly attitude toward other gov
ernments.
War does not come out OF a
clear sky. Nothing but some act
inconceivably wanton and agsrcs-
sive can start it between two peo-
pies whose feelings and words
and acts have expressed mutual
understanding and appreciation
through many years. A war be-
tween the United States and Ca
NADIA, for example, is thinkable as
an abstract proposition. AS a con
crete fact, it could not come until
new generation in each country
had been brought up in a tradi-
tion Of envy, suspicion, jealousy
and hate.
Here we have the root OF the
trouble about the MeXican situa-
tion. More than half of the pub
lie men in this country who have
expressed their opinion about it,
say that they do not think inter
vention-meaning war-will come
at this time; but that they believe
it will be necessary eventually.
And in holding this opinion and
putting it into words, they are
doing all that man can do to
make war between the two com-
tries inevitable.
For this reason we regard near
ly all that has been said in the
two houses of congress and on the
platform about Mexico and ia
pan as on a par with Germany S |
invasion of Belgium. 1t is the de
liberate creation OF a situation !
which involves a crisis. Every |
sane man knows that we have no
with Mexico that
ever wiHglead to war. But it IS
impossible that a friend
ly relation should exist where
our feeling, and much of our talk
is contemporary hostile.
This is still more true, more |
indefensible in our atti-
tude toward Japan. There we are
deliberately planting a bomb un-
der the future of civilization II

A CUB REPORTER S DIS
COVERY?

A cub reporter on a Los An
geles newspaper, has Just made a
discGvery-and has told about it.
A cub reporter, be ii understood
by The layman, is a reporter who
hasn't worked long at the trade
a new addition to the staff, if
you please.
The discovery Of the cub re-
porter was that the bigger the
man, the easier it was to approach
him. {" As a rule, the big man
that | go to for information is the
very soul of Kindness" he says
Sometimes | have asked very
simple questions of clerks and of
flee boys and have been insulted
for my pains, but | have seldom
been rebuffed by a clerks en-
ployer."
Every cub reporter makes the
same discovery-and it proves a
valuable asset as he gets further
along with his work. 1t is the way
of the world-and the people.
Politeness and kindness and con
sideration for others is a part of
greatness, and Of course the
greater the man the more in evi-
dence such virtues. No reporter
who has worked at the business
for any length of time dislikes to
interview the really great; it is
the would-be great, or the imagi-
nary great. or the small that is
masquerading as great that
causes all the woes of the news
