MELCHER, Iowa, April 29.-Attend-

that the mine workers in this district
are becoming deeply interested in the

Earlier in the month we addressed

Mystic At both of these centers the
same interest in and sympathy with
the Workers Party was evident.
In several of the camps we witness
ed the demise of the proletarian
party. Although some Of the poison
scattered against the Workers Party
by the "proletarians" is yet notice
able, the former members of that sec
tartan group are now joining the Com

Although an occasional miner in

Illinois is guilty of harboring with
in its state borders the vilest form of
child labor-"home work" In spite
of the fact that the city fathers and
crafty politicians, together, as usual,
with the liberals and the meek social
workers. have been busy broadcasting
the ''fact" that Illinois has state laws
which prohibit the labor of little
children, the worst child labor flour
ishes undisturbed Even the radicals
have come to believe that Illinois is
far above the other states in its re-
gulation OF child labor. But such is
not the case.
The want-ads of the capitalist news
papers daily carry enticing ads for
home work"-varying from the popu-
lar beading and sewing to millinery
trimming and embroidering. The
state has law which is supposed to
regulate home industry but it has the
customary joker which makes the in
tent of the law worthless.
No Home Work Except In the Home"
This law states that the making OF
various articles in the home for sale
or manufacture is prohibited except
II performed by. members Of the fam
lily living within the home.
Members of the family" naturally
means, in addition to the father and
mother, all adult and minor children.
