Safety in Repair Work.

This is the time of year when the old
car is receiving hours of faithful at
tention, likewise the season when
many amateur repairers come to grief
by reason of thoughtless acts.
1t is customary TO take a ride
around the block TO see whether the
repairs have been effective. Under
such conditions there is likely to be
entirely too much attention paid to the
functioning of the cars units and not
enough attention paid to pedestrians
and other vehicles. Ii the results of
the work cannot be judged except
through an actual test of the cars
running performance at least there
should be two persons in the car. one
doing nothing but watching the road.
Climbing under car that is lacked
up is one of the surest ways of court
ing danger in repair work. And it's
usually quite unnecessary, because if
the car owner does not have a con-
venient place to work he is usually
not justified in tackling bearing work
or any other major operation per-
formed while under the car.

it is important to block the wheels

Also remember that serious burn can
be avoided by keeping in mind that the
muffler and exhaust pipe may be hot

1t is all very well to make sport
of the man who wears gloves when he

ing is an aftermath Of carelessness in
repair work, skin cuts being hastened
by unprotected hands.

the motorist are capable of exceeding
a speed of 20 miles an hour and are
built with the idea of delivering a good

typical car owner reacts by saying
that a speed of 80 is good enough for
MIN, never realizing that 80 miles an

of the past.

Yellowstone National Park this year

from across the seas than for many

Last season, according to Mr..

only from every state in the Union
but from twenty-three foreign coun-
tries Of the British Empire.
Time was when a park visitor from
over seas was unusual but the lure

important ISSUE" says President
Green, who continues:
"The criticisms of the amendment
have been so false that the people are
gradually learning the truth, They
have found that the charges made
against the amendment are not only
pure invention, but absolutely ridic-
ulous.
Congress passed two child labor
laws, neither of which was objected to
by other than the industrial exploit
ers of children. Since the last child
labor law was declared unconstitu-
tional the employment of children in
industry has increased greatly. State
laws are not being enforced because
the exploiters of children have sufi-
cient influence to minimize the activ-
tiles of inspectors.
81 hope your State Federation of
Labor at its coming meeting will take
a strong stand for the ratification Of
the Child Labor Amendment by the
next session of the Legislature of
your State. So much transformation
is being given out in reference to
what can be done with the amend
ment that it is necessary for you to
give the people the true facts
Congress can not either withdraw
or repeal the amendment; it is the
property now Of the State 4lesisla-
lures and will remain there until rati-
fed. States which have ratified the
amendment can not reverse their ac-
ton, but States which have refused to
ratify can at any time change their
vote in favor of ratification. Accord
ing to the Supreme Court "a proposed
constitutional amendment can be rat
flied by two methods only--by the
Legislatures of three-fourths OF the
States or by conventions in three
fourths of the States, the choice Of
method being left to Congress" In
a decision on the question of refer
ring the ratification of the 18th
amendment to the referendum, the
Supreme Court said:
"'The action of the General As
sembly of Ohio ratifying the pro-
posed 18th amendment can not be
referred to the electors of the State,
the provisions Of the State constitu-
ton requiring such a referendum be-
ing inconsistent with the Constitu-
ton of the United States.'
"Let me urge you, therefore, to set
aside day or part of q day of your
convention for the discussion Of this
amendment. If q standing commit
