down by Director Frank T. Hines of

\ general order has been issued by

tion is not in contravention of law"

If claim is incomplete and the
file contains the names of third par
ties who may be able 10 substantiate
the claimants contentious, employees
are directed 70 take the initiative in
securing such testimony by COM
municatiug directly with such third
parties in which case the claimant
must he advised why action in his
case is being withheld.
Director Hines in this order ma kes
il very plain that the claimant is at
all times entitled to know exactly
what action is being taken. and in
some circumstances even what action
is being contemplated in connection
with his claim as evidenced by in
structions prescribing procedure by
the claims and rating boards, which
are to the effect that when claim
ant is being examined the medical
examiner viii advise such claimant
what degree of disability is being
recommended to the board, explaining
that the degree given in the final
rating is necessarily contingent upon

tion for each disability claimed.

CHILD LABOR BAN
BY NATION SCORED
Or. Butler Says Change in
Constitution Might Stop
Real Progress.
81, the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
PHILADELPHIA. December 6.-No
American mother would favor the
adoption OF a constitutional amend
ment which would empower Congress
10 invade the rights of parents and
10 shape family life to it's liking, DR.
Nicholas Murray Butler, president OF
Columbia University, declared in a
letter on the proposed child labor
amendment read today before mass
meeting held here in connection with
the second annual convention of the
SentinelS of the Republic.
The proposed Federal amendment
now before the State legi latures. DIR.
Butler asserted, might delay the day
when child labor, which is now
rapidly disappearing" will have
totally disappeared.
Protest Amendment
The mass meeting was called to
protest against. ratification Of the
amendment by the various legisla-
tu1e5. Louis A. Coolidge OF Boston,
chairman of the SentineIs OF the Re
public. to whom Or Buffers letter
was addressed, presided.
The letter stated that those who
would keep intact the principles of
American life ARE charged with an
unwillingness to tear down the Con
Stitution.
\ beginning was made when the
eighteenth amendment was proposed
and ratified" DR.. Butler wrote This
amendment is objectionable and re
puSnant to American principles be
cause it violently inserts positive
legislation into document whose
sole purpose it is to establish a
framework of Government, to set out
the limitations of that Government
and TO describe the functions of its
several parts"
Would Transfer Power.
The proposed child labor amend
ment, DR.. Butler continued. would
relieve the local and State govern
rnents of their direct responsibility
and transfer that responsibility to d
distant, costly and certainly incom-
competent bureaucracy operating
from the National Capital
The letter called attention to the
lessons of the recent national eIec-
ton" which DIR. Butler maintained
showed that the 25.0OO.00O voters.
while differing as to policies, are op-
posed TO experiment upon the founda-
ton of our social and political sys-
tenn"
