1T SHOULD NOT be necessary to prohibit parents
from forcing child do labor for purpose of the few
pennies to be gained from work by children under age
and especially children who should be attending school,
t there are parents in almost every state and in
country who look upon their own flesh and blood as
source from which to gain by compelling children
to labor The following statement is made by the National
Child Labor Committee, and is worth thinking over
"Tragic incidents in present child labor conditions

inadequacy of federal forces were
suggested.
There was a preponderance of
an opinion that an earnest official
appeal for reverence of the law and
a cordial support of law enforcement
by the press would combine to cure
the worst conditions reported"
According to some of those who
attended, there was no suggestion
raised during the three hour confer
ence which indicated belief that the
situation might be helped by loosen
ing the present stringent enforce
ment statute. To the contrary, it
was said. the prevalent opinion
seemed to have been that imposition
OF more severe fines and prison
terms on conviction of violation
would assist the enforcement officials
in their work.
Other suggestions. all of which
were declared later to have been
entirely informal included a more
careful selection of prohibition per-
sonnet. larger appropriations for the
federal bureau and education of the
general public to the necessity of
law reverence.
Governor Allen, of Kansas, said
tonight the conference had indicated
clearly that all the governors pres
ent whose states have enforcement
laws were in entire sympathy with
rigid enforcement. Governor Cox. of
Massachusetts, one of the two states
lying outside of this classification.
was quoted as Of the opinion that
more money and more honorable
men" were necessary. Since the law
was on the statute books he held, it
must be enforced.
The majority of the people of
Maryland-the other state without
special enforcement laws-believe
that the Volstead act is impossible
of enforcement in the State, accord
ing to Governor Richie.
Our people in the main regard 1t
as an unnecessary and drastic federal
| infringement of their State and per-
sonal rights" he declared in a
| statement issued after the confer
ence and which was described as
setting forth the views he had ex-
pressed to President Harding.
THE lack of respect for law and
| actual lawlessness which have re-
suited is deplorable. The only rem
edy I see is to recognize that the
Volstead law is destructive of the
| rights of states and to turn the whole
question back to the states, so that
each may settle it in accordance with
I the will of it's own people,"
