Two child labor laws were passed
BY Congress but declared uncenstitu
tional, and it is not out Of place to
recall that the first blow struck at
protection for children was in North
Carolina, where the same judge de-
clared both laws unconstitutional.
And now from that State comes the
propaganda from "The Farmers
States Rights League, Inc.,. which
appeals to the several legislatures to
defeat ratification. A textile mill
owner is president Of the league; a
banker is vice president, and the edi-
tor of textile subsidized paper is
the propaganda for this alleged
farmers organization. Great sums
of money have been expended IN adj
vertising in farm papers, and the
farm papers have fought the amend
ment in the interest of the advertis-
ers. It is being said that the amend
ment win give the Federal Govern
ment control over children, that it
will be taken from the parents. The
States now have control over the lives
of children up to 81 years Of age.
The amendment only asks that the
Federal Government be given power
to limit, regulate, or prohibit their
labor up to 18 years of age. There
would be no need for Federal law
II the States were sufficiently inter-
ested in children to enact laws. to pro-
tect them.
Mill owners in New England COM
plain that they must reduce wages
because of the cheap child labor in
the textile mills of the South. Mas
sachusetts has child labor laws. North
Carolina and number of other States
have not yet passed legislation that
would be acceptable to the children
loving people of our Nation. In order
to give them that protection which
would permit them to be educated
and normally and physically able to
meet the struggles of life, it is nee
essary that there should be consti-
tutional amendment that would per-
init the Federal Government to pro-
tect persons under 10 years from ex-
ploitation.
There is no time limit for the rati-
fication of the amendment and labor
will fight for years to come as it has
for the last Al to save American chill
dren from exploitation.

We hear much nowadays of pre-
paredness for war, but the discussion
is confined to the relative merits of
airplanes and battleships. Conscrip-
ton is talked about and there are
people who are advocating the draft
ing of wage earners in industry as
we'll as to fight in the ranks in the
next war. But all those who are en-
gagged in shouting for preparedness
ignore one of the most vital prin-
ciples in preparedness-that is, that
we must build a nation Of real men
and women, morally, physically, and
mentally, who will be able to fight in
the event our country is invaded.
In the last war it developed that
% per cent of the boys between 21
and 81 were illiterate. The cause of
this curse to our Nation was the
greed of those who cared nothing for
the rights of children, who had no
compassion for the stunted forms and
weak minds of those who had been
forced into industry and prevented
from living the life of q child.
The cause of illiteracy in the Unit
ed States is easily explained when it
is known that 81 States permit chill
dren to engage in gainful employment
without common school education.
Eighteen States do not make physi-
cal fitness for work condition for
employment and IA allow children
under 16 to work from 9 to IL hours
a day. Nine States have no law pro-
hibiting all children under ID from
working in both factories and stores
and two do not regulate in any way
the daily hours of the labor Of chill
dren. Those States which permit the
employment of children under ID
place us in the same category as In
dia, China, and Japan.
Unfair employers seek the labor of
children because it is cheap. Fathers
are discharged and their children
hired. Grinding the very souls out
Of the young appears to be regard
ed as an Indoor sport" by those
whose greed has destroyed their con-
sciences. Children should be forbid
den entrance to the factories and
workshops and should be compelled to
attend school and spend certain por-
ton of their time in the Fairgrounds.
For that is where physically and men,
tally fit children are made.
For A years the American Fedora
ton of Labor has used its influence
in every State and in the Federal
Congress for laws for the protection
of child life. In 1910 the convention
of the American Federation of La
Dor thus explained the objective
which labor was seeking: e
Organized labor contends for the
improvement of the standard of life,
to uproot ignorance and foster edu-
cation, to instill character and man
hood and an independent spirit among
our people, to bring about a recogni-
ton of the interdependence of the
modern life of man and his fellow
man. 1t aims to establish a normal
workday, take the children from the
factory and the workshop and place

MARYLAND EARN LABOR
SUPPLY EASIER

A slight improvement in the
potential supply of farm labor is
reported ON the average date OF
August / by Maryland farmers, &C
cording to John S. Dennee, Federal
AGRICULTURAL statistician for Mary
land, who says the supply in per
cent of demand was 81 against 80
ON July 1, measured by the standard
of normal supply and demand. But
farmers are still complaining OF the
high wages exacted and the inef-
ficiency of the labor available.
Farm wages by the month. includ-
ing board, are given at $34.55, and
by. the month without board at
$49.79. Day labor with board is

CANTALOUPES

lA1AN -
The Dover Index reports Delaware
peaches and cantaloupes both struck
their stride last week, and this week
and next will witness the peak for
these delicious fruits. Coming two
weeks ahead because of the early
start obtained last spring, the
peaches, Of which there will be
about a half or perhaps sixty per
cent of a crop, and cantaloupes, OF
which there will be full crop, are
beginning to tax the transportation
facilities of both the railroads and
motor trucking companies.
: In peaches, the Carmen, Cham
pion, Goldsborough and Wiley Belle
are in their prime. They are not
so large as in some other years, but
they are clean and of good flavor.
Even with but little better than a
half a crop, the growers are likely
to do we'll. The prevailing prices
ranged the past week from $1.5O a
bushel upwards. The Georgia crop
is about exhausted, and this is aiding
in keeping the market in good
condition.
This week the Belle of Georgia
and the famous Elbertas and Hale
will come along, and probably by
the third week in August, the crop
will have passed the peak and begin
to slack off, as usually that is about
the time the crop gets to the peak.
A peculiar fact is that south OF
Bridgeville there are no peaches.
Normally the lower section OF Della
ware, becadse it is farther south,
ought to have the most. But when
the late freeze came, the tempera-
ture in Sussex county, by some
oddly in the climate, was four
degrees below the mercury in Kent
county, and the peach blossoms and
buds were so seriously nipped that
they failed to yield this year.
Cantaloupes are coming along
fine. Carloads of them have already
gone forward and this week Will
witness one of the busiest scenes In
lower Delaware where the farmers
go in largely for cantaloupes. Last
year there were 522 carloads shipped
by rail and 39,S42 crates shipped by
motor truck, and all prospects this
year are for equally as heavy a
crop, if not larger. The dry weather.
killed off some vines, but other bet
ter irrigated patches will yield more
than enough to. make up for this
deficiency.
Delaware growers are going to
receive more money for their crop
this year as soon as the public
realizes the kind of stuff they are
shipping, due to the fact that the
melons are being picked ripe, and
are not green. Heretofore, Delaware
cantaloupes have suffered through
the ambition of the farmers to be
the first in the market and who con-
sequently picked green fruit.
