DR.. TIPPY ON CHILD
LABOR

Child labor is a shameful evil and
economically unsound," declared the
Rev. DR.. Worth M. Tippy, secretary
of the commission on social service
of the Federal Council of Churches
in announcing that the churches of
America are cooperating to secure
the passage of the child labor amend
ment.
"The amendment is necessary he
said, ito protect more than a million
child workers. The federal council
and the allied organizations are con-
vinced that the state action cannot
alone be depended upon to remove
the evil, but that federal action, with
the states cooperating, can quickly
control it,"
Pointing out that the 1920 census
was taken in January, which excluded
counting children working in the beet
fields and canneries, and did not in
clude children under 10 years who
work in factories from IA to 60 hours
a week, and that the enumerators
were instructed not to count chores as
child labor, he declared that the CEN
sus report of conditions is an under
statement Of the real situation. Stat
ing that the administration of the
two federal laws before they were
declared unconstitutional stimulated
and helped the state authorities, he
continued, 'It does not seem neces-
sary to sacrifice new generations of
child workers. Childhood is the
period for growth and education, and
it quickly passes"
"Child labor, as distinguished from
wholesome after school and vacation
assistance in home and on the farm,
stunts growth, handicaps the future
and produces illiterates. Children
soon lose their opportunity. Given
two or three years out of school and
half dozen years of broken school
work, their chance is irretrievably
lost.
Child labor is shameful evil and
economically unsound. 1t sacrifices
the future Of life for the present.
1t is perpetual source of annoyance
and criticism to the management of
an industry. Employers should be
glad to get rid of it and have uniform
ron, patitiva conditionc ovar tha coIIn
try.
"We trust that the people will not
be deceived by the plea that children
must be sacrificed for the maintenance
of widowed mothers. The mothers
aid provided by the last congress, the
charity organizations of our modern
communities and the good offices of
relatives, friends and churches will

81 raised your salary three times"
said my old boss, expecting to see
the grateful water come in my eyes.
Sure he did. But twice another
firm had offered me the wage he
finally paid. There was no effort on
his part to lift an aspiring youngster
from the slough of debt into which
he had fallen. He met the two raises
because he either had to do it or let
me go, and he knew it was busienss
to keep me. He raised my pay a
third time on his own volition, but
looking back now can see that / was
earning half as much again. Then |
resigned, and when he accepted my
resignation he told me that my sue
cess was due to him.
Il gave you your chance" said he.
What blltherlng nonsense that is.
He had been paying me as little as
he could. What he calls the "chance"
he gave me was the opportunity to
work in position that some one
must have worked in anyhow. He
created nothing for me. He is try
ing to claim recognition from me
now because / worked hard and
earned more money than he paid me,
and eventually went to another firm
who could pay the money l really

weak, or / should have said:
Listen, Old Horse. The best
friend and the worst friend that any
one has is himself. It's up to him to
make good. No one does more than
open the door to him. And doors are
always being opened to the right
man."

cases of poisoning developed dur
ing Sunday and early today.
Four or white white families are

made i'll is not known. At least
three blacks have died of ptomaine
