Faithful Dog Dies
After Masters Death

Manhattan, Kan.-Old Sport,
probably the most famous "com-
mon everyday" mongrel dog in
Kansas, is dead.
Old sport became known as
the faithful servant of Verne
Sandell, a crippled Manhattan
boy, whose plucky fight to earn
his own living despite the fact
he was born a hopeless cripple
was the subject of human In
terest" stories in a number of
newspapers and magazines. The
dog furnished motive power for
his master, drawing a small
wagon in which Verne rode.
After his masters death, twoN
years ago, Sport was disconso-
hate and put in his time guard.
ing the few possessions Verne
left. Finally he ''just died."

community have all needed protec- tion If so, they are favored, and the proposed legislation is not for them. But all children are not so happily situated. Still no matter where they live-whether East or West, North or South-they are children of the United States, and whether you will or not, you are concerned in their welfare, for children everywhere are entitled to your protection, and have a right to your help. You as citizens of the United States are concerned in the welfare of the children of the na- tion, and are interested in this pro posed amendment.
 The hopes of our nation are all centered in the children of America. They will be the citizens of tonor- row. Our country cannot prosper as it should if our children are not given proper development.
 Where shall we look for help to remedy the admitted defects of our present system! Our appear must De made to our lawmakers. Children make their mute appeal to the heart and conscience of Everyone, but they cannot make the effective appeal to those in authority. We must second their efforts. And so to our lawmak- CTS in Congress, to those who 1egis- late i'll state capitols, we must make our will known. We must demand that they amend the Constitution of the United States, and then enact the legislation that will take the children out of mills and mines, out of can neries, the sweatshops, off of truck farms and beet-he1ds, and send them to the schools and the playgrounds. So doing, we shall be assisting in giv- ing the United States a citizenship capable of defending our country in times of dangerj and, by reason of bodily vigor, capable of advancing her in ways of national greatness.

- Washington, D. C., May 17,-Crea- tion of permanent committees on edu- cation i'll every local trade union in the United States for the purpose of bring ing about closer association with school work everywhere is asked in a commu- nication to all organized labor. Eight specific enumerated objects are set forth in the communication which is signed by the American Federation of Labor per manent committee on education of which Matthew Woll, vice president of the A. F. of L., is chairman.
 These are:
 '1 That the wages of earners of each city are adequately represented on the municipal school board.
 2 That there is labor representation on the boards of directors of all state universities and other institutions of higher learning that are part of the public school system of our country. These are policies long approved by or ganized labor and incorporated in our permanent education policies.
 8 That the necessary enabling acts be passed to provide free text books for the schools of your locality.
 '4 That industrial education as de veloped in our public schools shall in clude sciences underlying industries their historic social and economic i'm plications as we'll as the technical side specific vacations.
 5 That local use is made of the re- port on social studies made by the A. F. of L. Committee on Education in order that the text books used ill public schools shall be of the highest type available.
 ''6 That in each locality there be de veloped opportunities for continuation schools and night schools under the public school administration.
 v That the widest public use is

made of all public schools for adults as well as minors so that from our schools shall come a continuous and benehcient force in the social and civic life of the community.
 "S That your organization affiliate with the Workers Education Bureau for active cooperation i'll education for adult workers as developed through that Blu reau. This Bureau does not concern itself with propaganda but with helping trade unionists to a fuller understanding of industrial problems and relations so that workers in industry may be able to interpret and order their lives with fuller understanding of the processes an possibilities of freedom that is born of understanding. The w. E. B. is not a substitute for general facilities for adult education but is a proper supplementary agency responsible only for that field in which it has intrinsic authority.
 'The key to effective participation in the educational life of the community Is close association with public school in stitutions. Labor is approaching more and more fully the possibilities of this agency with whose establishment 1t had so much to do. Labor's responsibility increases in proportion to the ever in creasing poteniality of our public schools.
The Connecticut labor news., 1924-05-17

Twenty great organizations have been 1aboring for years to secure the regulation of child labor. In the ab- senCe of necessary power, Congress sought on two separate occasions to pass laws of nationwide application that would bring the result so earn estly desired by those who wished to protect the children of our land. These attempts were brought to naught by the action of the Supreme Court in declaring these enactments unconst1- tutional Much adverse criticism was leveled against the Supreme Court for these decisions but the simple fact was the court could not do otherwise than so decide.
 A chance to remedy this state of affairs, to give children the needed protection, is now before us. The jul dietary committee of both Houses in Congress have reported favorably on a joint resolution introduced by Rep resentative Foster of Ohio to refer to the individual States proposed amendment giving Congress the necessary power to enact nation wide legislation on the subject of child-labor. But we are still a long ways from final victory. It will be necessary to secure a two-thirds vote in Congress to authorize the submis sion of the amendment to the States i; then the Legislatures of 36 States must ratify it. So the united efforts of all friends of the proposed amend ment are needed before final victory.
 We can all help by coming to clear ness of thought concerning the neces- sity of this amendment. Let us con- sider the nature of the issues in volved We shall then be able to help shape public opinion and can inhu- ence in various ways our representa- tives in Congress. Also when the amendment. comes to our own State for ratification, we can make our in f1uence felt there. We can support the effortS of the various organiza- tions that are striving to secure this end. Social Progress urges all moth CTS and especially all members of the Child Conservation League, through their various clubs and circles, to further in all possible ways this vast ly important legislation. We feel that there is no more vital or serious work requiring their attention.
 The State of which you are citizen, the community in which; you reside, may not need this legislation. Per haps the children of your State and

BY THE WAY
Comment and Criticism About Things
 Doing in the World.

Talk about ''the good old days" sounds we'll, especially if one is past his youth and is in a retrospective mood, but as a matter of fact the old days were far from beng all good d'-they were bad in many respects.
 Take the matters of hours of labor, for example. The "old timers know that hours of labor were many i'll the "o1d days but even they forget how long the Workday was, in the days before organ l lzed labor had become a power It takes a concrete example to make one realize the length of the workday in ''the good | old days Such all example is given by | working timetable of the Washburn & Moen Manufacturing Company, Philadel- phia for 1869, which provided for work week of 65H hours. The timetable | reads:
 Breakfast, 600 A. M. Com
 mence work, 6 80 A. M. Dinner, 12
 M. Commence work after dinner, 2:45 P. M. Stop work, 6 80 P. M
 Saturdays, 4 80 F. M
 After reading the foregoing schedule, what working man or woman will contend that ''the good old days were better than the days of 1924?
 Members of the Ama1gamated Associ- ation of Street and Electric Railway Elm ployees of America point out with satis- r. Al, :A ton workers company unions" exist that the men have been asked to accept lower wages In cities having unions of the Amalgamated there is no talk of wage cuts and the men are holding their present wages and improving them.
 In connection with the organized street car mems progress, 1t Is interesting to re- call that 1t has all been made in 36 years. as the electric railway industry is only 36 years old. It was on May 4, 1888, that the first commercially successful over head trolley car i'll the country made its initial trip in Richmond, Va.
 From that start in Richmond the indus try has grown until it represents almost 6,00O, 100000 of invested capital and an annual income of more than $1 ,OOO,OOO,- 0QO In the last year more than 16,OOO,- 100000 persons were carried on electric railroads which marks new high record.
 That it is entirely possible to greatly reduce mine accidents IS demonstrated beyond doubt by what Great Britain L,,eJo,,ai,+t, ;c6irac+ior1
 has done in this direction. ;,
 Writing ill the Philadelphia Pubic Ledger, Herbert N. Casson says that 60 years ago there were 9 per 1000 miners killed every year but stringent measures were taken and today the mines are no more dangerous than the mills and fac tories and are five times as safe as the streets of London.
 British mines, says MT. Casson, are probably the safest in the world. He adds:
 "The fatal accidents are now only z14 per 1000 This is little more than half as many, it is understood, as there are III America"
