ITO the Republican party goes the
credit of being the leader In the cam
paign for national legislation to pro-
tect the children. 1t was the party
that enacted the first federal child
labor law" Mrs. Hert said. 1.-THE Re-
publican platform commended con-
gress for its prompt adoption Of the
recommendation of President Coolidge
authorizing congress to pass protective
child labor legislation. 1t also urged
the prompt consideration of the amend
ment by the legislatures Of the vari-
Gus states.
This law, when ratified, will afford
nationwide protection for child work
ers.
"The average woman Of today Is
worker She either works to support
herself and those dependent upon her
or she works to make the family In
come buy as many comforts for her
family as possible.
"The last federal census showed
that out of 572 occupations, only 80
did not have women workers. Women
have entered the realm of industry
and they must be carefully protected.
The action of the Republican platform
in favorlng high standards of wage,
working and living conditions among
women has received widespread com
mendatiOn.
"The election of President Coolidge
and Mr.. Dawes, supported by Repub.
liCan congress, will mean continued
prosperity for the average home"

Ancient Riv ais
Pomona-Oxy In
Clash March y
BY United Press Leased Wire

LOS ANGELES, Mar. 1S.-The
most logical way to dope the out
come of the Occidental-Pomona
track scheddle for newt Saturday
would be to flip a-coin. 1t is
doubtful if two more closely match
ed teams will ever come together III
Southern California.
Occidental will strive to defend a
conference title she has held for
two years, won each time by very
narrow margin from Pomona. Sup
porters who aren't putting up any
money are willing to concede the
Tigers a little edge, but it is not
enough to dampen the spirits of Po-
mona rooters.
In the meets staged with the
University of Southern California,
eliminating the hammer throw, Po-
mona lost by just one point more
than did Occidental, indicating that
there has been little change i'll the
relative strength of the two schools
since last season.
The Tigers outstanding advant-
age is in their relay team. 1t is eX-
pected that the two teams will keep
neck and neck in the score until
the relay events, when Occidental
will have her only real chance Of
putting the meet on ice.

Since this pair boxed a draw at
MeXicali some time ago, fans have
been anxious to see them appear

made to put on fight at Mexiea-
Ii, but the recent restrictions of
border traffic have interfered.
AS a final windup, Young
jackson, colored, FL Centre, will
meet Ernie Farron, Portland, Kid
Buck, Kansas City, will meet Whit
ney Jones of FL Centre. There will
be two preliminaries, according to

GREAT RUNNER TO
HEAD BRILLIANT
ARRAY SPRINTERS
c lf0rnia Star Has Been
Trainino For Weeks
Already
By HENRY L. FARRELL
Omitted Prefs Staff Correspondent)


NEW YORK, Mar. 1S.-Reinstatc-
ment of Charley Paddock, Califor-
MIA sprinter, by the A. A. U. and
announcing that he will be eligible
to try out for the Olympic team
just as good IS chalks up three
events for the American team in
Paris next summer.
With Paddock to head the, list
of other really great sprinters in
this country and American victory
is almost clinched in the 100 and
200 meter races and in the 400 me-
ter relay race.
Paddock, Murehison, McAllister,
Hussey, Bowman, Clark, Kirksey
and Scholz present an array of
sprinting talent that is by far the
best in the world. Perhaps Pad
dock isn't in form. Perhaps the
idleness of almost year. has taken
something out of his stride. Per-
haps he will not be good enough to
win the 100 meters as he did at
Antwerp. But if Paddock does not
win another American will win the
event and Paddock will be there to
shut out any other nation that tries
for it. a
The California star is now in
training. He has been working, ac,
cording to reports, for several weeks
at the Olympic Club in San Francis
co and has been showing no i'll eff
fects either from his lay off or from
the injury to his ankle that he sus-
tanned some time ago while play
ing basketball.
Paddock's records have been the
cause Of doubt among some of the
eastern critics because he never did
the record breaking in the east, at
least Already the hammers are
working. The final trials are to
be held over the fastest track in
the United States in the Harvard
Stadium and it is maintained that
Paddock will have to vindica.e him
self there.
But it is foolish to expect Pad
dock to make a new world s record
in trying out for the team unless
the competition is such that he
would have to exert himself to make
the team.

WEATHER INSURANCE

The Milwaukee Journal the other day collected
sa000 insurance because it rained day for which
tbe paper had issued special real estate edition This
is probably the first of the kind on record Amuse
nent people have often insured their performances
gainst loss from bad weather. in recent years, but in
s1rne editions is a new game for newspapers.
The most interesting thing about this insurance
guarantee. The paper wanted its real estate adver
tsers to get full value for their ads in the special
edition. and realized that they might not do so if the
weather was bad because purchasers would not turn
out to look at their property. The insurance money
received is the price of that advertising and will pay
for printing the same ads again. in expectation of bet
ter luck
This is good illustration not only Of the ncreas-
ing effect of weather business but of the expanding
nature of insurance Alert business studying
before.
