grotesque as applied to federal regu-
lation of child labor.
There is game familiar to child
rem called hunting for gougers."
The gullible child of group is told
that the woods of the neighborhood
are full Of gougers that can be caught
after dark by holding a lighted
candle in front of an open bag, but
one must have patience because some
times as much as two hours of quiet
watching is necessary to lure the
wiley gougers. Meanwhile the other
children agree to deploy themselves
about the woods and drive the goug-
ers toward the light and the open bag.
While the too faithful child waits, his
mates return home and "bust" them
selves with laughter over the scene
in the woods.
The opponents of the child labor
amendment have gone 'gouger- hunt
ing. So persistently have they
worked and SO thoroughly have they
stimulated their imaginations that,
unlike the luckless child, they have
drawn myriads of young and old, fat
and lean, real and unreal child labor
gougers into their bags. Here is a
sharp-nosed, angular creature with
fox eyes,-he is labelled "the fraud of
the child labor amendment" An
other is big, raw-boned, full-bearded,
bearing torch and spiked club.-he
is known as "the revolutionary and
socialistic child labor amendment"
There are other gougers too danger
Gus and too numerous to mention for
the fears of the opponents of the
amendment have bred progeny of
fantastic character and over-whelm-
ing number. Surely the country will
not be deceived by such nonsense nor
turned from it's noble purposes by idle
words. As has been said by a great
friend of children in the United
States, "There is a child welfare
minimum in our democracy that will
make democracy worth saving by in
sisting that every child must have his
full individualized chance"
/ quote from Vachel Lindsay:
"Let not young souls be smothered out
before
They do quaint deeds and fully flaunt
their pride.
1t is the worlds one crime, its babes
grow dull,
It's poor are ox-like, limp and leaden-
eyed.

address delivered before the
League of Women Voters Con-
vention, st. Paul, Minnesota,
October 8, 1924
1t is hardly necessary to point out
to this audience that there is child
labor problem in the United States
of such size and proportion as to
challenge the attention of the whole
country. Surely no one, whether he
believes in the amendment or not, can
condone the employment of some
100000 children between the ages
of ten and fifteen in industry and
agriculture in our country We are
not speaking now of summer vacation
employment at all nor of a consider
able number of children under ten
years of age who are gainfully en-
ployed. One out of every twelve
children between ten and fifteen is
working in mine, workshop, factory,
or on farm-one out of every
twelve children is thus being denied
the opportunity for wholesome re-
creation, necessary education and the
proper stimulation of his physical and
spiritual growth through the influ-
ence of the home and school. Would
you deny your son or daughter the
priceless heritages of childhood or
would you deny them to any of the
100000 children less fortunately
situated than your own? We need to
think of this problem in it's personal
application to appreciate its signific-
ance because it is very easy to ignore
the things which effect the other per-
son and not ourselves.
We are told that the southern
states are the worst offenders in the
employment of children and that the
question is sectional or state, not
national. Look at the facts. Of the
total number of children between ten
and fifteen employed in the country,
100000, the distinctly southern
states contribute 100000 and the rest
of the country 100000. 1t is true the
preponderance is in the south but the
whole country is guilty of child ex-
ploitation in greater Or lesser degree,
and what is the result? Rhode Island
employs fifteen per cent of its total
child popu1a tiop hotwaap ton and
fifteen and 6.5 per cent of its total
population is illiterate. Compare
that with Minnesota's illiteracy rate
of 1.S per cent. Or take Mississippi,
which exploits 25 per cent of its child
population and has an illiteracy rate
of 17.2 per cent. If a considerable
percentage of the people of Rhode
Island and Mississippi and other
The Redwood gazette. [volume] (Redwood Falls, Minn.) 1873-1940, 1925-01-21

states-are illiterate, Minnesota will
reap share of the resulting harvest
OF ignorance, for mouldy wheat con-
teammates the whole bin and lowers
it's grade.
What shall be done? Shall we sit
quietly by after twenty-five years of
agitation to bring all the states up
to a decent minimum of protection
and, in the face of failure in many
states, permit the continued expioita-
ton of children through more weary
years of effort to get adequate legis-
lation in one state after another? I
submit to you that the cost to child
hood in terms of happy vigorous life
and to the nation in terms of eff
ficient citizenship is too great. No
one deplores saddling additional
powers upon the federal government
more than do, nor do underestimate
the values contained in the principle
of states rights, but am willing to
yield any theory 1 hold in the face of
convincing facts, and the facts clearly
indicate the need for federal leglsla-
ton, which the passage of the amend
ment would make possible.
In this connection, however, we
should remember that the amendment
expressly reserves to the states the
power to make and administer child
labor laws which are not in conflict
with federal laws on the same sub
ject. In other words, broadly speak
ing, the states may have the best
legislation they can devise but they
cannot be content with the worst
when it falls below the standard set
by Congress. The child labor amend
ment would make possible the curtail-
ment of the privilege now exercised
by some states of permitting made
quate protection for children; it would
not invade the right of the state to
protect childhood more abundantly.
This statement is supported by Sec
ton 2 of the amendment, which reads
as follows:
''The power of the several
states is unimpaired by this
article except that the operation
of state laws shall be suspended
to the extent necessary to give
effect to legislation enacted by
the Congress"
No informed person will deny that
the amendment gives Congress broad
power to legislate concerning any and
all types of labor which children un-
der eighteen may engage in. 1t is
undoubtedly true that more power is
given than Congress may ever be
The Redwood gazette. [volume] (Redwood Falls, Minn.) 1873-1940, 1925-01-21

called upon to use, but how short
sighted it would be for the friends Of
the amendment to undertake the
laborious effort of amending the con-
stitution only to find at some future
time that the power of Congress was
inadequate to meet pressing needs
which may arise in the future and
which cannot now be forseen.
But, say our opponents, Congress
may abuse this power and pass drastic
legislation which will completely des-
troy the initiative of the states. To
those who hold this point Of view
I put these questions: Have you lost
faith in the American form of govern
ment and in democracy? Do you re-
gard Congress as your Legislative
body or as a foreign, alien group for
which you are not responsible and
which is not responsible to you? If
the proposed child labor amendment
gives Congress, broad power which
might be abused, what about the six
teenth amendment giving Congress
the power ITO lay and collect taxes on
incomes, from whatever source de-
rived, without apportionment among
the several states and without regard
to any census or enumeration" Our
federal supreme court has pointed out
that the power to tax is the power to
destroy. No more sweeping power
could possibly be lodged in the feder-
al government than the sixteenth
amendment confers upon it, for up
der this provision Congress controls
in a measure the purse of every
citizen in the country. Has Congress
confiscated anybody's income or 9TH
erwise abused and outraged the
rights of any citizen? Prior to the
passage of the sixteenth amendment
the taxing Of incomes was the ex-
elusive right of the states. l know
of no desire on the part of our
citizenship to bring about the repeal
of the amendment because of abuse by
Congress of the tremendous authori-
ty which it confers.
Let us turn to a consideration of
the age limit of eighteen years fixed
in the child labor amendment. 1t has
been asserted that person of seven
teen years does not need protection
against exploitation and that sixteen
or some other age should have been
determined upon. Of course any age
limit would be more or less arbitrary
and would be objected to by some as
either too high or too low. The
amendment seeks to make possible
the protection of persons who have
not attained their full mental, physic-
al and moral stature. Various laws
differentiate between the child and
the adult at varying age limit.
The child becomes an adult for
voting purposes at twenty-one.
Modern juvenile court legislation
gives the court jurisdiction over child
rem under eighteen years. A boy in
Minnesota may contract marriage at
eighteen. Girls under eighteen are
protected by our carnal knowledge
statutes and many of our state child
