the close of the Civil War, and which

not in harmony with the newly re-
constructed court building. No de-

as to a proper place to re-erect it.

THE WORLD WAR HAS
INCREASED CHILD LABOR

An increase in the number of work
ing children and a longer working
day for children under Is years has
been the effect of the war on child
labor, as announced by figures COM
piled by the Department of Labor.
The declaration by the Supreme Court
that the Federal child labor law was
unconstitutional broke down the bars
that prevented the employment of
child labor to such a great extent
as now, and brought forth so many
violations of State labor laws. In
some sections it was found that AZ
out of DO factories were employing
children under IL years, and in 9TH
er states, where the minimum age for
employment was IA, 721 children
under that age, including SO not 10
years old, were found at work.

RANGING TO THE
DSN TUNE OF SUGAR

OlHLIN1 IN
OA TUNE OF SUGAR
Sugar! Sugar! Sugar! Prec-
;ous grains of sand.
There's a mighty ocean of you, but
MN cost to beat the band.
that's a tune that will be heard
n every American household for
many months to come, but it will
nat be a popular one, because il
means that every citizen will have
Il dance to the music. And why?
Nobody knows-at least no one in
Washington will admit that they
know. although everybody seems to
think that some blunder has been
made somewhere. The law contin-
uing the sugar equalization board
throughout 1920 went into effect on
the last day of 1919. Immediately
sfterward government officials at
the Capital announced a speedy drop
n prices, but quickly thereafter, and
right in the stores of Washington,
the retail price suddenly increased
from Is to 81 cents; then came the
prediction by the board that during
ls2O the price over the entire coun-
ty will not be less than 20 cents. II
means that the people of the United
States will have to cough up about
million dollars year more for SUI
gar than they have ever paid before.
During the last five years each per-
son has consumed about 80 pounds
Of sugar annually. There are 10
100000 people. The increase price
IS cents pound over the famine
costly dance music when the tune
priced at a million. Had the ad-
vice Of the sugar board, the MAORI
" of members, been followed last
August, the entire Cuban output for
1870 could have been bought foI
u. cents pound. After refining
and transporting and allowing every
one a fair profit, sugar cuold have
been sold today for IL cents pound,
