UPPER MARLBORO, Md, December
13.-Acting upon the request of State
Senator Lansdale @. Sasscer and men,
bers Of the Prince Georges County leg
islative delegation, the Board of Ii
cense Commissioners today decided to
withhold the issuance of licenses in
Mount Rainier, Hyattsville, Riverdale
Brentwood and Laurel, until a definite
expression Of the sentiment of regis
tered voters can be obtained.
The board received q written request
from the legislators this morning. 1t
was pointed out that the towns legally
could not hold referendum unless
consent was received from the State
Legislature, which does not meet again
until 1895.
Citizens backing both sides of the
question believe that bitter controversy
over the sale Of liquor, particularly in
Mount Rainier, will develop. Both par
ties, the so-called "drys" on Monday
and the "wets" yesterday, made vehe-
ment and impassioned pleas before the
License Board. The "wets" claim that
Mount Rainier town officials who are
opposed to licensing the dozen prospec-
tive liquor dealers of the town are at
tempting to make political capital OF
the situation. The wet cause is lead by
Attorney j.. Wilson Ryon and Louis
Lebowitz.
A. sharp fight is expected in the
towns until the question is finally de-
cided. Authorities anticipated bitter
battle when the question Is to be finally
brought up for decision.

HAPPY DAYS ARE?

Journals that specialize in watch
ing industrial and financial trends see
some light in the sky.
Such commentators find improve
ment in steel, in car loading, in loos-
ening credit and in some improve
ment abroad, notably in Germany.
These things may forecast better
times. Nobody hopes otherwise, ex-
cept those ghouls who profit by the
misery of their fellows.
But is it not strange that there can
be signs of improvement in the busi-
ness and financial worlds while un-
high mark?
Is there not something to think
about and ponder over when there
can be betterment in money-marts
while misery spreads over a wider
circle of humanity?
1t may be objected that improve
ment in financial and business condi-
tions presage more employment and,
in these crazy days, that may be so.
But if that be so, then it is neces-
sary to say that the improvement in
employment had better not lag far
behind

Edison Could Not Soc

Thomas A. Edison's declaration that
9 certain inventor was crazy made me
curious as to his attitude toward
other famous inventors Of our time.
So asked him what he thought OF
Bell and the telephone.
He replied Z little contemptuously !:
The telephone was no Invention. It
was discovery. Don't you know how
the telephone was foundl One day
Bell was fooling with some wires and
diaphragms In his laboratory, and sud
denly he heard the voice Of an assist.
ant over the wire from another room
The telephone was all there; the rest
was simple.

Ing an invention you find need, then
deliberately go to work to devise the
means to meet that need. Bell never
planned to invent the telephone"
l was about to conclude that Edison
derived no Joy from other peoples In
ventions, when he added Of his own
accord. IF you are looking for 4
great invention, take Marconi. He
knew all the time what he was tryin'
to git. It was turribly hard thing

movement is free from tainted in
dividuals?
Certainly business is not free from
crime. Certainly politics is not free
from it. The professions are not free
from it, and neither are the churches
free from it.
Racketeering started in business
circles and was given its great i'm
petus by a law supported by the
Bishop Cannon. If some of it has
stopped its dirty water over into la
Dor, it is no wonder.
BY and large, the labor movement
is Americas cleanest movement.
Labor can hold up its head in pride
beside business, finance, church or
politics
Labor can an does hold up it's head
in prdie in a system tainted and de-
bauched by corruption and fraud
largely bred by the conditions of the
time.
Labor, exploited by the whole COM
munity in which it exists, the burden
bearer and the maker of all commod-
tiles, has right to tell the cockeyed
world it is good and tired of the
taunts of the holier- than-thou gen
try who have done nothing to re-
shape institutions and conditions so
that the worker may have a decent
chance.

The idleness of 100000 workers

The idleness of IL 100000 workers
was chiefly caused by modern machin-
cry and improved methods of produc-
ton, which in time produced under
consumption and the depression.
Halfway means of restoring pros
perity by spreaing employment to
care for the jobless is humanely
worthy, and justiiable, and should
be put into operation as soon as pos
sible. Reducing the working time,
however, is only the first half of the
job. A bridge built only half way
over roaring, raging river will never
be of any use for conveyance and
travel until the other half is pro-
vided. Reduced hours and increased
wages are twin remedies for plac-
ing the unemployed to work and
bringing about continued prosperity
Our problems will be solved and
worry over if and when industry takes
care of the slack in employment and
supplies wages sufficient to match
with production. The
employe and employer can jointly do
this quickly and by and through or
ganization of both sides. Labor can
do more than its share by organizing
and it should do this without waiting
for hesitating employers to act-The

CHILD LABOR MUST GO

The national child labor committee
announces the start of campaign
to remove more than 100000 chill
dren from industry by putting them
back to school. 1t makes it's present
appeal on the ground that the work
these youngsters are doing is des-
perately needed by the 10000. 900 to
100000 adults who are now unem-
ployed.
There can be no legitimate argu-
ment against this appeal. The en-
ployment of 100000 children under
16 when 100000 adults are vainly
seeking work is just not champion
able. Even the hardened EMPLOYER
who has sought this Cheap" labor
must realize the awfulness of what
ne is doing at this time. The time
for constructive forces to go before
their legislatures for reform is
therefore now. If child labor is to be
definitely erased from our stained es-
cutcheon, it should be easier to do it
now than later.
But the real argument for the leg-
islation will remain when the depres-
sion is forgotten. The fundamental
here is not "a mans right to work.
but "a child's right to be child"
Modern machinery has greatly les
sened the total amount of labor to
be done in this world. The shorter
work day and the shorter work week
VIII some day make part of the ad
Justment which is called for. The
rest of the adjustment should come
from shorter work life. Men should
start work later in life and finish it
earlier. There is no excuse in mod
ern civilization for children under 16
to be "gainfully employed" or for
aged men, crippled from battles with
industry, to carry their dinner pals
into their seventies.

HOURS AND WAGES

Less hours of toll! Surely. but
more wages. We are in hearty ac-
cord with the proposition to reduce
the working time to a point that
will absorb the now UNEMPLOYED
masses. That has to be done or there
will be no reduction in the now lob
less army. But such action must be
followed by increases in wages that
will enable consumption to keep pace
with production.
Curtailing the purchasing power of
those now working by reducing their
working time to point that will
put the 100000 idle back on the
job, without increasing wages, will
lot solve the problem.

ARE THE LEvEEs FORGOTTEN?

finished and its victims long buried

And that, perhaps, is what is in the
minds of those who slow up and i'm
pede this much-needed investigation.

Its proof. Labor demands that there

Perhaps that is what some members

to pass this session, and the same is
true of many other measures. All of
which makes an extra session almost
a certainty now.
