His Record Still Stands

Dr. c. W. Stiles, of high standing among professional
biologists and as lecturer announces that Noah was
not only capable ship captain but the worlds first sue
cessful health officer.
1t is difficult to wholly agree with the good doctor as
to both OF these attributes of Mr. Noah AS ship captain
Noah didn't know where he going didn't know where
land lay and made of crow-bird as pilot His sole
job was to keep the Ark aoat and that ship was of such
remarkable beam that it would take nothing less than
catacysm to tip her Moreover Noah had ins,r-
ance papers from the Almighty. canaboat cook could
sail ship like that Ark.
But as health officer Noah wears the crown sure
enough Picture cargo of pair of every kind of crea
ture, including the germ of typhoid smallpox foot-rot
sleeping sickness fits fants etc. etc. with ali sorts of
groans grunts grows yells, and singing Forty
days Of it, with women aboard too. ANY fellow who
could land that cargo in shape to resock the world was

That Minimum Wage Decision
BY CHEZ IIISTICE WILLIAM HOWARD TAFT

Legislatures in limiting freedom of contract between
employee and employer by minimum wage proceed on
the assumption that employees in the class receiving least
pay upon full level of equality of choice with
their employer and by their necessitous circumstances
to accept pretty much anything that offered
They peculiarly subject to the overreachng of the
harsh and greedy employer
The evils of the sweating system and Of the long hours
and low wages which characteristic of it well
known
Now, / agree that il is disputabe question in the
field of political economy how far statutory require
ment of maximum hours minimum wages may be
useful remedy for these evils and whether it may not
make the Of the oppressed empoye than than
it was before.
But it is not the function of this court to hold
gressiona acts invalid simply because they passed to
carry out economic views which the believes to be
unwise unsound.
Legislatures which adopt requirement of maximum
hours minimum wages may be presumed to believe
that when sweating employers prevented from pay
ing unduly low by positive law they will continue
their business abatng that part of their profits which
were wrung from the necessities of their employees and
WIN concede the better terms required by the law and
that while in individual cases, hardship may result the
restriction will to the benefit Of the general class
of employees in whose interest the law is passed and so
to that of the community at large.
The right Of the legislature under the fifth and four
teenth amendments to limit the hours Of employment on
the score of the health of the employee it seems to me-
has been firmly established
