PROF. X. Nj. STORY
SAYS CHILD LABOR
Is NATIONAL ISSUE

Professor Russell NJ. Story, formerly
of the department of political science,
and now at Syracuse university, ta's n
issue with those who oppose the child
labor amendment ON the grounds that
such legislation is properly function
of the state, and not the national
government. Prof. Story expresses
his attitude in a letter to a member
of the faculty.
Il think that in the matter Of child
labor there is a vital national inter
est at stake which cannot be left to
the caprice of any one state Prof.
Story says.
so long as we have a country OF
continental domain, it seems TO me
that questions which are continental
in their character must necessarily he
entrusted to some central author
ity," Prof. Story declares, going on
to say that, Il am not fully Dersuad-
ed that the organization of a more
successful government at Washington
is an insuperable obstacle.
81 think that | am as much dis
posed to deploTe the Capitalization OF
authority at Washington as anyone,
but see no way of avoiding il with
respect to phases of life which are
country wide in scope ami significance.
Industry, like commerce, now
transeends state boundaries. Many
great industries have their corporate
existence and their chief office IN one
5 ate, while their plants exist IN oth.
eTs and their Dnlicies may affect all,
he points out.
"public administration On a large
scale is a development Of comparative
" recent years and as a science II
seems to me to be developing IN
rather hopeful way. | think that 1t Is
too early to set bounds for Ii and also
| think It is quite unnecessary 10
assume that because we recognize
national interests and national way,
the fountains of local government
are drying up. The quality of our life
and the variety of our interests are
becoming richer year after year ana
there is available today for the local
government Of this country a larger
and more useful sphere OF activity
than ever before in our history.
Il doubt the necessity in the inter
est of decentralization, Of denying
ourselves the advantages which We
can secure through utilization Of our
central goyernment.'-(The Daily
Illini).
Il is gratifying to know that a large
majority of Americas foremost edu-
Gators have lined up with the pro
posal to pass the twentieth amend
ment on grounds that are pointed out
by Prof. Story.

activities.
The hackers signed the agreement
when grocery interests were obJeehng
10 their invasion Of that field, and the
meat barons now insist that the go
called consent decree" is illegal. The
packers fight Is conducted by com
bination Of large fruit growers IN
California who claim that if the de-
cree is not annulled the wholesale
grocers will have a monopoly Of the
canned fruit distribution. Government
attorneys insist that the annulimen,
will give the packers a monopoly q

GENERAL COMPLAINT
AT HARDNESS OF AT
TORNEYS 4 COURTS

The cost of trying criminal cases
is worrying the voters generally IN
many states, and Illinois Is no eN.
cp ryt41fi. III IL SneHesea tifat tte sses'
of court procedure is greatly IN eX.
cess of what il should be, largely be
cause of the number of unimportant
cases which are permitted 10 come up
for trial
The cost Of prosecuting liquor cases
is no exception TO this general rule,
though it may be presumed that hnes
assessed gainst the more hagranl
offenders more than offset the cost Of
trials.
Last week more than fifty prison
ers were reported in the Champaign
county jail. Many of these have been
incarcerated for long period owing
to court delays. Ii is apparent to
every taxpayer who eontemplates the
situation that these prisoners, many
of whom will pay nothing into the
county treasury in the way of fines,
must be fed from the county funds at
no small cost.
Quick action would at least result
in the cost of the board and lodging oil
such prisoners being transferred toI
state institutions instead Of requiring
that the county bear all the expense.
This is "A problem the county |
authorities must solve with the CO.
operation of attorneys who are ap.
pointed to try the various cases.
Michigan Worried.
Berrien county, Michigan, taNpay- |
ers are up in arms and deeply IN |
censed because Of the increasing bur
den Of taxation incurred In proseeut-
ing alleged Michigan communists. un-
der the Michigan Criminal Syndlcal- |
ism law.
The storm of protest has been so I
great that George Bookwalther, Bef-
rien county prosecutor, Is beginning /
to worry about his political fortunes.
He has, it appears, been frightened /
into announcing that there Will De
delays in the prosecution OF eommuh-
lists.
Voters Enter Kick.
That, however, is believed to be
mere talk for the voters. BookWai-
tber knows that there will be no
shortage of funds for prosecuting the
communists. This recalls a similar
situation that existed in Michigan n
1923. Then, too, there was a complaint
from Berrien county. But it was soon
hushed. The taxpayers were gwen
TO understand in various way that
they were not paying the bills.
For example the Michigan state
legislature, passed a bill about thal
time autborizing the state board oi
appropriations TO supply all the neces.
sary funds for the prosecution Of
criminal cases. This was obviously
meant to bear the financial burden Of
the Befrien county eases.
