Importance Of the that will be before our local
legislators, should have the following historical facts
CEPTENBER /, 1916, congress passed child labor law.
- II was intended 10 prevent transportation in interstate
commerce of the products of childrens toll suit
brought in North Carolina, in the of two children,
10 test the conStutonay of the law The supreme court
June 1918 held the law unconstitutional the ground
that the power of congress 10 regulate interstate COM
couldn't be used that way IL could be used the
basis for the Mann act but not 10 protect children Five
of the Judges so held; four dissented.
February "a 1919 congress passed another child labor
law. This time congress attempted 10 put special tax
those mills mines and quarries that employed children.
The supreme court May l5 1922, held that this
improper use by congress of the taxing power
TT HAVING become obvious that II congress hoped TO
protect children the constitution must be amended,
amendment submitted and passed thru congress June
of this year. This amendment reads;
section |. The congress shall have power TO limit.
regulate and prohibit the labor of persons under Is
years of age.
Section p The power of the several states is uniu-
paired by this article except that the operation of
state laws shall be suspended 10 the extent necessary
TO give effect 10 legislation enacted by the congress-
Note that this amendment merely gives congress the
power to enact child labor legislation II does not pro-
hblt children up TO the age of Is from working in mills
mines, etc. it only provides that congress fix the
conditions under which they may work.
The above explanation of the proposed amendment will
not be disputed by opponents II is offered here n fair
basis for the consideration of the arguments that will be
advanced during the controversy this winter.
II will give you something TO tie to when wild asser-
tons begin to take the place of facts

While Doheny Pumps Oil

Tn Los Angeles the aib artists are busy building up
for the illegal leasing of the navys oil
serves to private exploiters.
Their abb for the secrecy with which the oil
serves turned to Doheny and Sinclair by Sec
retaries Fall and DENLY is that it necessary in view
of the conference then in session at Washington
H. Foster Bain director of the bureau of Mines testi
fled that the conference couldn't get Japan to agree
to naval armament limitation if she knew the navys oil
being snapped by private deal between Fall and
Doheny for a naval base at Pearl Harbor, Hawaii.
Theodore Roosevelt Jr issued the secrecy order Balm
testified.
That strange thing for Roosevelt TO be doing.
The Doheny defense is trying to fan patriotism into
alibi for the Fal-Doheny-S Sinclair deals
Swapping the navys oil for naval base at Pearl Har-
oor without congressional authorization illegal and
unconstitutional, and Fall and Doheny and DENLY and
Roosevelt knew it.
If this private deal had become known to the public
The popular protest would have saved the naval oil re-
serves before the private expoers could get their we'll
1iggers on the ground
As is, under the dark of secrecy the wells sunk,
some oil was pumped and the United States is in the
.ourts, ASKING the return of the naval reserves.
The case drags along, while Doheny pumps oil.

Possibility of Temporary Ad-

Chicago, April Material fresh
upturns in wheat took place today
soon after business began. Chances
that perhaps temporary sharp advan-
ces in grain values would result
from legislation at Washington APP
peared to be the chief influence.
Smallness of wheat receipts at Kan
sas City, together with the report
of crop damage in the winter wheat
belt east of the Mississippi were
also given considerable attention as
well as new high records for francs
and sterling.
Initial prices which ranged from
one-eighth cert lower to three
eighths to one-half cent higher, May
S102& to $f03 and July $1.05A to
rs were followed by gains all around.
Subsequent bullish estimates of
the worlds probable carry over of
wheat at the end of the crop season
this year gave additional strength to
the market. Closing prices were
firm, one and three-eighths cents to

which has arisen along the California
borders by reason of embargoes
placed by CALIFORNIA; neighbors

The cabinet at Yesterdays session
was Informed by Secretary Wallace
that the imperial valley cantaloupe
