Plan Extension of
Part Time Education
Director Hambrecht Explains Plans for
Extension of Part Time Educa-
ton to Youngsters of State.
lRx Associated Press LEASED wire

tBy Associated FfeSS Leased WlTSJ sNs
Madison, Wis. - The extension Of
part time opportunity to working chill
dren between the ages of Id and 18
twill do more to raise the economic
tone of the rising generation than any
other single movement in America, y
George P Hambrecht, director of voca-
tional education, said in a statement
today.
Mr.. IIambrecht said that he hoped
to see the day when every working
boy and girl in America must, as con-
dition precedent to securing a job,
attend a properly conducted, inspira-
tional, part time school one day each
week between the ages of IA and 18,
unless such child shall have finished
the equivalent of high school course. .
The work in Wisconsin under the
state compulsory education law which
aims to bring educational contact to
the working boy and girl if permitted
to be fully established and conducted
will, Mr.. Hambrecht said, become an
incentive for national movement as
an adjunct to child labor.
"The state permits child labor be-
tween the ages of IA and IS years, with
varying legal safeguard for the work
ing child's health and safety" the
statement pointed out. "All Of these
safeguards are of prime Importance
though negative in character. These
safeguards preserve, insofar as posi-
BILE, the physical well-being of the
working child, while employed, as well
as insuring reasonable hours of labor
and living wage, and laws enacted for
this purpose are generously admin
istered" e

Madison, Wis. There is much hope
lat the Wisconsin minimum wage law

ffected by the decision of the U. s.
upreme Court that the District of
olumbia minimum wage law was un-
institutional.
Fred M. Wilcox, chairman of the

hich administers the Wisconsin law,
eclaredkin an interview with the Uni
I'd Press today that the Wisconsin law
as a much stronger legal background
han the District of Columbia law.
The Wisconsin minimum wage is
pplied to women and minors and is
articularly based on the requirements

lour
The District of Columbia law, how
yer, was on minimum weekly wage,
nd was applied particularly to women,
rot to adults.
These differences give the Wisconsin
authorities hope that the Wisconsin
sw will be held constitutional, even if
is fought.
The supreme court in 1918, it is
pointed out, upheld the Oregon mini
mum wage law, which is more near in
it's provisions to the Wisconsin law.
