made void those laws-in one case
the decision being of the to 4 va
riety. To say that the later move
ment for a federal amendment to
validate federal statutes formerly in
actual effect was an effort to over
throw our dual form of government
partakes as much of the ludicrous as
the more choleric assertions that the
amendment originated in the Com
munist shrines of Moscow. From
first to last this movement in Amer
lea has been nothing but an effort to
divorce industry from child slavery.
1t began half a century or more ago
in state legislation and only the OBJ
struction of states forced the con-
eral government If states rights
have been menaced, the states have
their own backwardness to thank.
No amendment of whatever sort
probably could secure ratification of
three-quarters of the states in the
present temper of the country.
Amendments of the most desirable
mechanical nature intended to rem
edy widely recognized defects in the
constitution would doubtless be
showed under today even if they
were sanctified by the blessing of
Nicholas Murray Butler The child
labor amendment was voted for by
Senator Henry Cabot Lodge and in
dorsed by President Calvin Cool
idge; could an amendment indorsed
by any other two conservative
statesmen have more fortunate
fate? In view of this reaction
against "amendicitis" sounds
silly in view of the fact that out of
some 5000 amendments offered in
congress since 1888 only 19 have
survived to become part of the con-
stitution-the immediate outlook
for the most innocuous constitution
al changes is not good.
It is a peculiar distinction, mean
while, that the child labor amend
ment has already achieved in having
accomplished so much good in spite
of its apparent failure. 1t stands
vindicated in it's defeat if individual
states have been made conscious of
their failings and also their obliga-
tions in social legislation Spring

TTW FUTURE OF THE
CHILD LABOR AMENDMENT

Agitation for child labor amend
nent to the federal constitution has
had such perceptible effect from
the outset in driving backward
states to strengthen and improve
their own child labor laws that it
now seems fortunate for the child
life of this country to have had the
proposed goth amendment passed by
congress without clause imposing
time limit upon its ratification or
rejection Even if 13 states have
now in one way or another register
ed their opposition to the amend
Tnent, it will remain pending before
the states indefinitely, or until three
feurths of them have accepted 1t.
ANY state legislature that has voted
against it may hereafter reverse its
action. An amendment of this sort
may be down, but it is never out.
The time limit clause, which has
very seldom been used in the past, is
to be preferred in many cases, but
there is a special reason why it was
fortunately omitted in this case. The
fact that this amendment can at any
time be put across in case public SEN
timent turns in favor of it, even in
states hitherto hostile, should serve
the excellent purpose Of standing
threat to the more backward states.
A very serious danger now arising in
the inevitable tendency of those
states to relapse toward the old
abuses of child labor barbarism
should be partially checked. That
the final and irretrievable defeat of
the federal amendment would cause
just such deplorable reaction by
removing the incentive hitherto OPP
Grating on the states to improve
their own laws in order to escape
federal supervision may be inferred
from the present conditions in GER
tain of them, to Wit
Nine states have no law prohibit
