MONGOLIAN DISCOVERY

New York, Aug. 70 tP)-Discovcry in Mongolia of traces Of what is be- loycd to have been inc earliest type of primitive man, by the expedition led by Roy Chapman Andrews, may prove important as a clue to deter mine the place of America in mans development, Dr. Clark Wisslcr, an- thropologist of the American Mu- scum of Natural History, said today.

SAME FINE SSTUDEBAkERs
 Prices Reduced-Qu Quality Manufactured

TT HESE low prices are not for new cars built \ to sell at new prices,
 They are for Stakeholder cars identical with those which have been in tremendous demand at higher prices during the past eleven months.
 They are for Studebaher cars so well built Of such high quality materials that net profits during the past six months have averaged only S14064 per car. The rest of the money the public paid US miles of excess transportation.
 These earnings are triumph for the one-p profit basis oi manufacture. No manufacturer on q less efficient basis could have made dollar selling cars ot Studsbakcr quality at Stakeholder prices.

Legislation in keeping with the spirt
Of the amendment.
In Austin, Tex, though the amend
ment was rejected, the Texas house Of
representatives recently passed a
drastic child labor law.
The bill provides that children IN
der 10 years Of age are prohibited
from virtually all positions except on
farms, and under II from the more
hazardous occupations.
The bill reduces the hours Of labor
in a single day from 10 hours to 81;
prohibits night work from 10 p. m. to
> a. m, requires a physical eXamina-
ion and an education equivalent 10
the fifth grade. The bill is before the
senate.
Should other states, which so far
have permitted the exploitation Of
child labor, follow example Of the
Texas Legislature the purpose Of the
10Th amendment will be realized with
out adoption by the several states.
This much, at least, the agitation
for a national child labor law has
accomplished.

Champaign will be in great need OF
4 comfort station when the State Fed
GRAFTON of Labor meets here next
September. 1t will be in need of such
building before and after the con.
vention.
1t is a great discredit for a city
the size Of Champaign to make no
provision to meet this need.
Recently the Chamber of Commerce
offered TO defray the cost of erecting
a building on the vacant fire depart
ment lot. The city commissioners on
the whole approved the plan at the
time the offer was made, but appar-
emily later reversed their attitude.
Now the proposal is to erect a COM
fort station in the wide space in front
of the Inman hotel. Whether the city
council will agree that this space
should be occupied by such build
ing as it proposed, is a question. A
majority of the commissioners have
expressed opposition TO the plan at
one time or another, citing the proba-
bility of the drainage being made
guate at this point, and the certainty
of traffic congestion. 1t is expected
also that objections will be filed by
business concerns along University
avan,ta opJ Chastar street
Apparently it is up to the city coun-
ell to provide a suitable location, and
to the Chamber of Commerce to eX-
tend its offer by agreeing to construct
a building in a location that may be
agreed upon by the city commission
ers. The solution of the problem will
be easy when all concerned ceases
quibbing and get down to business.
But by all means there should be a
comfort station before the State Fed
Grafton of Labor convention opens.

Jurisdictional Trouble - Columbus,
Ohio.-Three hundred structural iron

Veterans Hospital Bldg.-Rutland,

To The Review it seems that this
amendment arbitrarily took a form
that would guarantee its defeat be-
fore the state legislatures of the ma
ton. 1t also appears that the amend
ment was planned that it might be de-
feated with comparative ease.
1t would have been the part of wis
dom to limit the amendment to in
clude children IA years or under
and then give opportunity for con-
gressmen to offer other amendments
to the original bill to include children
of mature years, from 16 to Is.
When Congress really wants a bill
to pass it does not ask for the whole
loaf. 1t asks for what can be OBJ
tanned, and trusts to enlarge the scope
of given measure through debate
on the floor of the House. On the
contrary when it is predetermined
that a bill is to be defeated it is per-
mitted to take a form which will in
sure its final defeat, because of Ger
tain Objectionable features. 1t is an
old saying that "He who wants too
much ends by getting nothing"

Pass Child Labor Law.

Austin, Texas, Feb. 18.-Stung by
criticism of its rejection of the child
labor amendment, the house of repre-
sentatives has passed a drastic child
labor law. The bill provides that chill
dren under 10 years of ace are pro-
hibited from virtually all positions eN-
cept on farms, and under II from the
more hazardous occupations. 1t re-
duces the hours of labor in single
day from ten to eight, prohibits night
work from 10 p. m. to 5 a. m, re-
quires a physical examination and an
education equivalent to the fifth grade.
The bill must pass the senate.
Twin city review. [volume] (Champaign, Ill.) 19??-1929, 1925-02-27

The failure OF the Child Labor
amendment Wa predetermined by its
form, and particularly its sweeping
inclusion of young men and women
from the age Of Ii to Is. There
would have been a much better chance
to impress the various state legisla-
lures with the value Of the amendment
if these adult years had not been
included.
But every effort to place the age
limit at lG years was successfully
combatted on the floor of the House
of Representatives at Washington
when the bill was introduced.
Early in the discussion an amend
ment was suggested eXempting farm
children from control Of Congress.
The amendment was voted down.
Later two similar amendments were
subjected to the same treatment.
Then a Virginia House member of
fered an amendment to limit con-
gressional control to children of 16
years and under This was voted
down.
On June Senator Reed, Missouri,
offered an amendment eXempting
farm children. The amendment
failed as before. He then offered an
amendment reducing the age limit to
IA. This also failed of adoption. He
followed with an amendment to apply
only to occupations which are hazard
Gus to health, life and limb. Again
a negative vote.
Congressman were apparently bent
upon having the amendment take an
Objectionable form. They succeeded
admirably, in view of the fact that an
IL year age limit gave ample oppor-
tunity for misconstruing the signii-
canoe of the bill.
At once there appeared the propa
ganda of the opponents of the amend
ment, declaring that Congress would
forbid children of any age to work on
farms. The appeal was made to farm
ers to save their children from idle
ness by instructing their representa-
tives to vote against the amendment.
The nation sees the result. There is
to be no child labor amendment with
out a desperate fight.

There are prospects throughout the
Irish Free Stat of a revival of the

Also, 5000 workingmen's houses are
