state officials who have winked at the
employment of child labor for 1915
hours day and have covered up the
vicious practices of the bosses against
the child workers.
Children work in the shirt factories
from Z a. m. to p. m. Their highest
wages, according to reports of inves-
tigators were $110 per week. More
often when there was less work the
children would bring home pay en-
velope of 80 to rs cents at the end Of
a weeks toll. One child reports that
Sometimes we'd wait all day and go
home at night without earning any,
thing. But if you don't come every
day they fire you"
In busy seasons the bosses forced
the children to work until 10 p. m.
with no extra pay. In several in
stances the sweatshop owners moved
out Of town and failed to pay several
weeks wages due the workers.

of the ''recapture clause" This
amounts to about s560,000,0Oo.
1t is openly admitted that Roose-
velt's plan will Immediately place an
additional 100000 railroad workers
out Of work. Officials close to the gov
eminent have also predicted that
Roosevelt's more permanent legisla-
ton" which he promises for the next
session will probably cause another
100000 railroad workers to be fired.
There are less than 100000 work
SIS now employed on the railroads,
yer 100000 having been laid off in
ne last four years.
The federal co-ordinator will
have the power to abrogate working
rules in the public interest"
Roosevelt's plan has met with the
enthusiastic approval of the railroad
presidents. William Atterbury, pres
ident of the Pennsylvania Railroad
states, that he regards Roosevelt's
plan as a highly desirable measure. !"

was by the institution of a
daily house-to-house delivery
Of the paper on an 18-cents per
week basis.
In the three months since the dis
trict Office has been considering this
undertaking, a little has been ac-
comphshed: 1900 new readers on
routes and 400 on stands. In con-
sidering the prospects of the route
system, 1t must be said that not much
Roadway has been made. This is
not due, however, to the poor pos
sibilities Of carrier routes, but in
stead to the poor cooperation of the
comrades and sympathizers Of our
press.
No Mention In DAILY"
This lack of cooperation is due pri-
marily to the poor way in which the
carrier routes are being popularized.
Little or no mention is made of them
in the columns Of the DAILY" the
paper for which these routes are be-
ing formed. On numerous occasions,
and other carriers have spoken at
Party unit meetings, at workers
clubs, at conferences, and TO many
individuals in reference to the ad-
vantages of carrier routes. Almost
everyone agrees with us, but all have
the same attitude, which is--a feel
ing of helplessness This feeling of
indifference and helplessness land in
some cases open opposition is mani
fest precisely because Of the fact that
the Daily fails to mention even
word about carrier routes.

MCKEE TO GET
ROOSEVELT AID

NEW YORK, May with Ma
yor O'Brien carrying out the job Of
cutting wages of all city workers,
reducing the pay of the subway and
other city transport workers, and
putting through higher fare so
the bankers can realize on their in
vestments, Tammany is laying the
groundwork for its city election
campaign next fall.
Mckee Out; Smith May Run
Tammany knows it will have to
make a spectacular move to be able
to hold on to the graft connected
with administering the affairs of
the city, so they are planning to
run governor Alfred E. Smith for
mayor. 1t is generally understood
that this was the reason why AL
derman President Joseph v. Mckee
resigned and announced that he was
out of politics.
His 100000 year job with the
Title Guarantee and Trust Company,
is regarded as the pension furnished
him by Tammany supporters for
MS GOOD ana talthtul services to
the machine.
The concern Mckee is to get A
job with is one Of the most noted
of the mortgage-shark organizations
with enormous amounts of "Frozen
assets" on hand in the form Of
mortgage debt claims on property
that has deprecated in value dur
ing the crisis. Mckee says he will
strive for the formation of a private
corporation, financed in part by the
Reconstruction Finance Corporation
to take over approximately $4,000
100000 mortgage bonds now in de-
fault as a step toward solving prob

New York Stocks
BY MAX BUCKINGHAM
United Press Financial Writer

NEW YORK, Oct. %. U.p)-The
stock market scared today as the
trading public gave preliminary
approval to President Roosevelt IS
monetary policy.
There was considerable variety to
the interpretations placed on the
"Sound money" plan-including
purchase of gold at fixed prices
and necessity for pulling commodi-
ties well above the present levels
but the trading public leaped to
the conclusion the policy was indi-
rect initiation. Commodities gained
and the United States dollar de-
clined, an ordinary inflationary
procedure, so Wall street shot
stock prices upward.
Gains ranged from l to IA points
in the general list while the vigor-
Gus Homestake Mining leaped 40
points. Through the general list
there were gains of around points
with a considerable volume of
trading, although periods of activ-
ity were followed by periods of
comparative dullness.
Mining shares gave the chief
sparkle to the market, under the
strength of two factors. One was
the President IS announcement of
gold purchases and sales by the Re
construction Finance Corporation
at fixed price which may reach $40
and the other was rumor that
Russia might be interested in buy
ing 150,000,OOO pounds of copper in
America.
HomeStake was the leader but u.
S. Smelling was much more active.
This issue gained more than 13
points, opening 12 higher and at
its low point of the day maintain
ing a gain of around 8 points.
American Smelling, Alaska Juneau,
Mcintyre Porcupine. Cerro de Pas
CO, Dome Mines. Noranda Mines,
and others of the mining group
gained to more than points.
Leaders were strong and active.
United States Steel leaped more
than a point at the opening, wav-
ering a bit, and towards the close
had a gain of more than points.
American Telephone was more than
q point higher. American Can was
3 points up and right near the
high at the close.
Stock sales today totaled 2,120,000
shares as against 2,680,000 shares
on Friday. Curb sales totaled 281,-
600 shares as against 375,000 shares
on Friday.
Dow-Jones preliminary averages
showed industrial 1918, up 4.49;
railroad 3610, up zoo; utility 23.85,
