CHILD CASUALTIES SHOW WHY STATES
 SHOULD QUICKLY RATIFY AMENDMENT

injury of Raymond Ball, 13, when he was drawn into the machinery of the Thomas Canning Company plant at Gaithersburg a few hours after he went to work for the company. He died on the operating table at Georgetown University Hospital, Washington
 Executives of the Children's Bureau of the Department of Labor point out that the injury of the Maryalnd child toilers constitutes smashing argument Tn favor of the quick ratification of the child labor amendment to the Consti- tuition. They say that had either of the Federal child labor laws, declared unconstitutional by the Supreme Court been III effect, these children, would have had the additional protection of the National Government. That Fed eral and State cooperation made for better enforcement of state child-1abor laws IS evidenced by statements of state labor officias1 quoted in the official report of the House Judiciary Committee.
 In connection with accidents to child workers, Children's Bureau officials di- rected attention to a study just com pleted, which shows that 7,478 indus trial accidents to workers under q occurred in one year in three states
 Thirty-eight of these accidents re- suited in death and 920 in partial dis ablement for life.
 Wisconsin. Massachusetts and New Jersey were the states included in the study. The cases of industrial >acci- dents to minors were secured from the files of state industrial commissions and accident boards and were only those i'll which compensation had been paid that is, in Wisconsin, accidents caus- ing disability of more than seven days duration; i'll Massachusetts and New Jersey, accidents causing disability of more than 10 days duration.
 The smallest number of accidents and the lowest accident rate occurred in the case of children under 16 Each of the states studied had attempted to protect children under this age by pro- hibiting them from employment in cer- tain occupations, chiefly in the opera tlon of the more dangerous machinery, which IS the source of greatest acci- dent hazard to the young worker,
 Children of 16 and 17 were pro- hibited from some employments in Massachusetts and Wisconsin, but in all three states were permitted to op- crate many of the dangerous machines.
 Accident figures reflected this differ ence in legal protection. Power-work- ing machinery caused larger percent age of the accidents to the 16 and IT. year-olds than to children under 16- protected by law-or to young workers between IS and 21-better able to pro- tect themselves.

VALLEY TOWN NEGRO
 SORE AT COOLIDGE

The negroes of the Valley towns are up in arms over President Coolidge s vague and unsatisfactory statement relative to the K. K. K.
 Many are determined to cast their votes for John w. Davis, whose clean cut statement left no doubt as to his stand on the hooded goblins
 The Presidents stand is in keeping with his attitude on the monster scan dals in Washington during the last few years and while silence is a vir- tue, still it will not eliminate respon- sibility either for the scandals or his tolerance of the order of bleached in te1lects. Rumors of every description are afoat and Congressman O'Sulli- vans stock has increased one hundred per cent among the co1ored citizens since he proved himself fearless to force the K1an issue in the open. In the meantime, the republican nominee for congress has been the blunt of criticism for his failure to condemn the menace of American institutions, the K. K. K.

CANADIAN LABOR
 CONGRESS HOLDS
 10TH ANNUAL MEET
Defeats All Propositions to Amalga- mate Into Industrial Unions Or to Withdraw from Internationals and A. F. of L-CaH for Stricter Regu- Iation of Immigration.

London, Ont, Oct. 4.-The fortiett annual convention of the Trades and Labor Congress of Canada held in this city last week was "a vindication ot the progressive constructive and cOnstltu- tional policies which have been effec- tive during the years of its existence according to Tom Moore, its president when seen by correspondents at the con- clusion of the sessions.
 The attendance was not as large as in previous years, due largely to the fact that a number of international or ganizations were converting at the same time. However, the convention was a (very representative one, delegates being present from as far east as Sydney, Cape Breton, and from Victoria, British Columbia. in the extreme West.
 Many important subjects were dis cussed and decisions reached which should assist in the struggle being made by the Canadian workers to improve conditions for all who toll.
 A number of resolutions calling for the amalgamation of unions into one union for the industry, the creation ot departments with complete Canadian autonomy and the vesting of power III the congress to levy assessments and conduct strikes for political as we'll as industrial and economic purposes, prompted long and bitter debate. but no change in the policies of the congress was made, decisions of the Vancouver (1o23) convention being reaffirmed, namely, that the present form ot or ganization be maintained and that the workers be urged to join the Canadian labor party.
 The immigration policies now being pursued by the federal and provincial governments which are viewed with alarm by the workers, came in for se- we're censure by delegates from all sec tions of the country. In this discussion representatives of the railroad labor or ganizations took a prominent part.
 Hon. Senator c. D. Robertson sub mitted very carefully prepared statistics showing that Canada was becoming simply an immigration recruiting station for the United States,
 For the year 1922 the total number Of Canadians who left this country for the United States was 62,28o as compared with 181 ,973 in 1923 and o6825 for the first six months of 1924 Against these last mentioned figures Canada has re- ceived only 2650 from the United States
 The congress reiterated its policy on this issue as follows: By a free, en- frightened, moral, energetic and lawabld- ing class of citizens and recognize that of immigrants. This influx, how ever, should be the spontaneous movement of the immigrants themselves and false inducements should be pr0hi- bited and the fullest accurate lntorma- ton freely circulated in the countries from which they come.
 "While every regard should be had for the welfare of those who seek our shores, the first consideration should be the Canadian people and the betterment

Maryland Cannery Vic tims Tragic Human Arguments for Pro- tectiOn by COnstitu- ton.

By International Labor News Service
 Washington, D. C., Oct. 4-Proof that the child labor laws of Maryland are not being enforced is given by re- cent dispatches reporting one fatal in jury and several serious injuries to child workers in Maryland canneries
 The ages of the children involved were from 9 to 13. According to the Maryland law, their employment was illegal and that they were permitted to work indicates lax enforcement of the law.
 Newspaper dispatches tel 1.-the story of Maryland's exploitation of her boys and girls better than columns of fervid rhetoric. In a story from Easton, re- cording the fatal Scalding of two men when a boiler in a canning factory at Henderson blew up, it is stated that those who are in a critical condition are Vincent Ba1son 10 years old; Jos eph Mi1eski, 10 James R. Mulvir, B i; Katie Ozesiska, 10, and Mary Roga- haski, nine"
 Another dispatch tells of the fatal to rescue his fallen comrades down 1T that black hell hole. When they found Sam ten days later, he was unconscious with a rotting corpse in his arms But no hero medal nor pension for Sam. i Well, I suppose it's all on account oi Sam's being nothing but a coal digger who toiled and slaved and faced death for half century. for no better pur- pose than to make the world livable place to hang out III. Besides, 1 see in the papers that pensions, especially old age pensions, are degrading because they pauperize the recipient and they also say that if fellow, saved his mo- ney he wouldn't have to accept charity in his old age.
 We'll, Sam did try to save in t1e old days when the day rate was dollar and half but what with a large family and sickly woman and accidents and lay offs and strikes, he never could save long enough in one stretch to get set in the habit.
 Now if Sam had been a General with a salary of $5,000 per annurn, including free board. lodging, laundry, transpor- tation, medical attention, sundries and incidentals, he might find himself in the humiliating position of having to accept an old age pension of $13,500 per year But as it is, he can hold up his head and proudly march to the Potters field by the way of the poor house and mo- can accuse him of being a pensioned pauper.

NOTED EDUCATORS
WILL LECTURE HERE
Mrs. Marie Turner Harvey July Ia
Is; Miss Helen Parkhurst July
2l-22-Public Is Invited

The Normal school is fortunate in
securing two of the most prominent
women in the educational world to
lecture for two days each during the
summer school. Each of these wo-
men will give six lectures. The
public is invited to any or all of item
Mrs. Marie Turner Harvey has
done more for the advancement of
education in the one room rural
school than any other person now
engaged in educational work. Her
work in the Porter school near
Kirksville, Missouri, is the outstand-
ing achievement in Rural school ad-
vancement in recent years. Miss
Evelyn Dewey's "New Schools for
DID," one of the most famous edu-
cational books in the last decade,
tells the story of the Porter school
wonderfully well, but Mrs. Harvey's
lecture on "The Achievement in the
Porter District" has a personal
flavor that no other educational lee
ture has.
Miss Helen Parkhurst is a Wiscon-
sin girl and a graduate of the River
Falls Normal school, 1907. She has
worked out a system of education
known as "The Dalton Plan" This
system has been adopted in many of
the leading cities of the world. The
city of London alone has over two
thousand school rooms on this plan.
Miss Parkhurst now has an expert
mental school in New York City
known as the "Children's University
School" DR.. Winship in writing of
it in the Journal of Education for
June II, 1924, says: at is useless to
attempt to give any account of the
wonderful achievement of all the
boys and girls where the creative
spirit dominates every teacher and
every child. Where attainment is
genuine, where freedom never leads
to license, and inspiration eliminates
inattention and leads to personal
aspiration"

WILL ASK SMALL FEE
FOR RURAL FIRE RUNS
River Falls Department Announces
New Ruling In Regard to
Farm Fires

At recent meeting of the River
Falls Fire Department, attended also
by Town Chairmen of this commun.
ity and insurance company officers,
the Department voted to hereafter
charge reasonable fee for sending
out apparatus in answer to fire calls
from the rural districts.
Answering these calls entails con-
siderable expense, and, after confer
ence> with town and insurance of
ficials it was decided that this action
would be no more than fair.
Last week the Department an
swered three farm calls-a chimney
fire at the Truls Bennett farm in
Clifton, and the blaze which de-
stroyed the Frank Peskar home in
Kinnickinnic on Wednesday, and the
fire which RACED a barn on the w. N.
Benedict farm in the town of River
Falls last Saturday morning.

Library Is Valuable
Asset To Community
Plea Is Made For Liberal Support
Thru Membership In Library
Association

Those who heard Judge Bales lee
ture on "The Juvenile Court" at the
chautauqua, will realize what our
Public Library is doing as pre-
tentative measure for evils with
which towns are afflicted.
Frequent visitors to our library
are pleased and gratifed to find the
reading tables occupied by boys and
girls, either using the reference
books and newspapers or enjoying
the periodicals. The habit of read
ing is splendid things as it not only
broadens the mind and develops the
power of independent thinking,
which makes for good citizenship,
but it also invites an hour or two of
repose which is much to be desired
in this day of hurry and unrest.
Our library is maintained by pub
lie subscription, and those who wish
to help carry on this worthwhile
work will be given an opportunity
in the near future. A drive is to be
made for members for the associa-
ton. Anyone who pays $1.00 and
signs the articles of incorporation
will become a member of the River
Falls Public Library association.
You will be called upon at your home
or place of business.
1t has been said that the library
is one of the busiest places in town.
Drop in frequently and be assured
OF the truth of that statement, and
of the value of this institution to the
community.

Triplets Are Born
In Glen Park Zoo
Beauty" Park Doe, Gives Birth To
Three-All Are Alive And
Doing Fine

Three tiny fawn, no bigger than
jack-rabbits, are cavorting in the
deer enclosure at Glen Park since
Sunday afternoon, when they were
ushered onto this turbulent sphere
by Beauty" one of the Bayfield,
county deer.
Crowds of people have lined the
fence to get peep at the little
fellows, and unless Beauty" has her
children up for exercise it is very
hard to spot" them, as they can
snuggle down into the brush and re-
main so still that one might pass
within few feet of them and never
suspect their presence.
The Park Board has ruled that
visitors are not allowed to go along
the waterfront past the deer en-
closure. The restriction will probably
be raised when these fawn-and
others that are expected soon-are
old enough to get accustomed to
human visitors.
Charles Shepard is now in charge
of the Park zoo while Mr.. Konichek
is on vacation.
