 Labor Injunction

Peoria, H., Sept. 27.-To end the abuse of the injunction in labor dis putes is the workers greatest prob lem, said Rev. Fr. J. w. Mcguire of St. Victor's college, in an address to the annual convention of the Illinois State Federation of Labor
 Originally, in England, injunctions were court orders issued where no law applied to certain conditions or emer- gencies," said the clergyman "The purpose was to protect the rights of the poor and the oppressed, but today injunctions are often issued restrain ing persons from doing things that would otherwise be lawful.
 Workers are enjoined against pick citing, against payment of strike bene- fits and lawful assembly of men, and the judge becomes the judge, jury and |executioner, whereas our government IS founded on the principal of the three branches-the legislative, the execu- tive and the judicial"
 LII uiSSuSSIiiS Iue veto power or the supreme court, Circuit Judge Charles Searels of Rock Island, reminded the trade unionists that federal judges are appointed for life and they are not ac- Icountable to the people. He referred to the appointment of former Presi- dent Taft as chief justice of the su- preme court after he had been repu- diated by the people, who refused to elect him president. In that election MT. Taft carried two states-Vermont and Utah.

Women Wage Farmers
 Are Paid Low Rates

Washington, Sept. N-In a survey of women in Missouri industries, the United States women's bureau reports that in May and June, 1922 ,"one-halt of the 15,364 white women Tn the state for whom information was re- ported earned less than $12-65 week. Even when consideration is limited to those who had worked full, week, Ione-half of these women earned less than $13.70."
 The report classes Missouri as among the moderately progressive states" because 1t has a nine-hour daily standard and a 54-hour week Earnings of negro women were low, one-half of these workers earning un- der $6 a week.
 The alrgest number of women were employed in the manufacture of shirts and overalls,' in shoe factories and in general mercantile establish ments. The median wage tor the 2,486 shirt and overall workers was S1O.oO, for the shoe workers SlZoO, and for the 2,717 women employed Tn genera lstores $1445. One-hait ot the 4,4O4 women in the state working outside St. Louis and Kansas City earned less than S1040 a week. These women are practically all native born, as Missouri has no immigrant prob lem.

Anti-klan Vote Large.

Democratic leaders say the real issue was whether the Democratic party should rule in politics of the state or whether the Klan should be given the power, to dominate the party. They are moving toward barring from their con ventions anyone who has sworn ale glance to the Invisible Empire
 The contest between Mrs. Ferguson and Judge Roberston, however, was not the real test of the battle. There were many who had a prejudice against for mer Gov. Ferguson and there were many who would not vote for a wo- man. Of the latter the number was very large. Torn by contending emo tions they declined to do so radical a | thing as vote for women. They voted for Robertson against their own de sires
 The grand dragon of the Kian has issued a statement that the Klan IS not political organization, but that 1t will continue the fight. It was significant that all of the six defeated candidates for the nomination immediately joined the Ferguson forces against the Klan candidate. Judges from all parts of the state, prominent lawyers and public men of all political complications hurried to the support of Mrs. Ferguson.
 Call It Political Party.
 It was made an anti-Klan fight Both sides accepted the issue, though the Klan candidate sought to obscure 1t at times with the injection of the prohibition question. Mrs. Ferguson brushed that aside with the statement that prohibl- ton was an accomplished fact and that laws and constitutional provisions on l statute books.
 The Democrats recognize the Klan as political party and declare they will treat 1t as such in the future
 Mrs Ferguson has announced her in tention to refrain from appointing any K1ansmen to office and says she will clean the Klan out of the capital when she goes to Austin This has caused consternation among the holders of va rious state positions there, many of whom were openly acknowledged klan- men and took active part in the recent campaign
 Mrs. Miria A Ferguson Is a woman of education, culture, poise and ability. She has had long and valuable exper7. fence in close contact with public at fairs She has had an exceptional op- portunity to observe and study state craft She has a mind and will of her own and she will be governor Ill fact, and in addition to her own ability will have the best guidance, advice and support that could be possibly be given.
 Men prominent in affairs of state are flocking to her side with pledges of fealty and assistance She is fearless and strong in initiative and if elected shall give the state an administration that will be an example for other execu- tives to follow.

WOMEN BEGIN BIG DRIVE TO WIN RATIFICATION OF CHILD LABOR AMENDMENT

By International Labor News Service.
 Washington, D. C., Sept H.-Deh- nitely contradicting certain statements of tne opposition to the child labor amendment, and answering their con tentions in detail, the Is national or ganization composing the Women's Committee for the Children's Amend ment are issuing a ratification cam paining textbook" for use in the state election campaigns
 The state and local branches of these organizations will work to send men and pledged to ratification.
 The women who are working for the amendment have no illusions about the struggle before them. The opposition III this case includes the same interests that fought women suffrage, prohibition and the Sheppard-T Tower maternity and infancy law. Those interests have mo- ney and resources. They include em- ployers of children who have directly selfish motive They are busy, say the Women's Committee, trying to defeat ratification by spreading transformation and misrepresentation about the amend ment and what 1t will do. The women's ratification textbook therefore empha aticaly contradicts the opponents of the child labor amendment on many points. Setting forth what the amendment is and does, the textbook also emphasizes what 1t IS not and does not do; among others points; these: l The amendment is an enabling act, not statute To become effective 1t must be followed by federal statute which Congress at present is without power to enact, as demonstrated by two adverse Supreme Court decsions.
 It grants power to Congress hereaf- ter to make laws against the exploita- 1 tion of childhood at premature of in- jurius labor.
 In other words. 1t enables Congress to fix federal minimum standard for the employment of children.
 The last census figures are quoted as showing over million children from l 10 to 16 years of age-one child in every 12-to be gainfully employed. Of this million, 4l3,5O0 were child opera tives Tn cotton, woolen and worsted and silk mills, iron and steel mills, and other ! industrial establishments were ern- ployed as servants, walters, messengers, bundle wrappers, office boys and girls, sales boys and girls, clerks, newsboys, | and miscellaneous other non-agricultu- ral occupations of various sorts (not chores or vacation work, for the census was taken in January claimed 647,OOO. The need for the amendment IS fur ther emphasized, the Women's Commit tee urges, by the fact that only Is states measure up in all respects to the con servative standards of the former Fed eral child labor laws. Nine states do not prohibit all children under IA from working in both factories and stores, states do not protect children under 1o from night work, 1o states do not make physical fitness condition of ern- ployment; and 5 states allow children to go to work without common school education.
