GRACE ABBOTT HITS
CHILD IN INDUSTRY
Urges Social Workers to Aid
Ratification of Juvenile
Labor Law.
AZ the Associated A Press.

BY the Associated Press.
DETROIT, Mich, June 13.-Miss
Grace Abbott, chief of the Federal Chill
dren's Bureau, today urged taking chill
dren out of industry in an address
before the Child Labor Committee,
meeting in connection with the Ma
tional Council of Social Work.
She advocated adoption of the child
labor amendment as a means to this
end.
What are children worth?" she
asked. There are reports of great bar
gains for those who are prepared to ex-
plot them. Four years of hunger have
prepared the ground for the growth OF
a new sweatshop evil"
She cited the report Of Pennsyl-
vania investigation showing med1an
earnings of boys and girls IA and Is
years of age in the clothing industries
to be $276 a week.
Attention has focused on the wages
of children in Pennsylvania because of
the strikes of children for higher
wages" she said. But reports of State
labor departments indicate there has
been this mushroom growth of sweated
industries throughout the industrial
East.
1T is especially to be deplored at this
time because increase in consumers
purchasing powers is the road to in
dustrial recovery"
Commenting that exploiters count
on very large number to be indiffer-
ent," Miss Abbott urged action-en-
couraging workers to organize, working
for enactment of minimum wage laws
and furthering ratification of the child
labor amendment.
I'VE can take the IA and Is year old
children out of industry and put them
back in school," she said. "Ratifica-
ton Of the child labor amendment
would make national action to this end
possible.
six States-Oregon, Washington,
North Dakota, Ohio Michigan and New
Hampshire-have ratified the amend
ment this year.
'The Legislatures of two States, Wis
consin and Utah, have not waited for
Federal action, but have followed the
example Ohio set some two decades ago
and adopted this year a 16-year min
inum for the employment of children"

DEMOCRAT ASKS FLOOR TALK
BE CONDENSED FOR THE RECORD
Representative Mitchell Makes News in Days of Long
Worded Oratorical Outbursts.

the well-laid plans of Representative
Connery, Democrat of Massa lusetts,
to force the House to call up the 30
hour-week bill, approved by the Labor
Committee, of which he is chairman.
Such a move somewhat interfered with
the ideas of House majority chieftains,
and no objection was raised to Mr..
Mitchell's animal / discussion.
Mr.. Connery was making some prog
ress toward his goal, however, until Mr..
Mitchell got the floor. Through some
clever and persistent parliamentary
maneuvers, Mr.. Connery had forced the
Speaker to start calling the list of
House committees. He hoped that no
committee with anything ready for
House action would be found before the
Labor Committee was reached on the
list.
But when the Speaker called 'the
Committee on Judiciary" in came re-
port on a bill transferring Tennessee
county from one division of Federal
judicial district to another. And then
Mr.. Mitchell started talking. He talked
about that great State of Tennessee,
Davy Crockett, James K. Polk, Andrew
johnson, John Sewer, hungry farmers
and what not: In fact, he talked until
the House was about ready to adjourn.
He talked so long the House did noS
get to Connerys' bill, and the oneman
filibuSter was over.

Seattle restaurant proprietor, who
leaped from a Pennsylvania Railroad
train in suburban Overlook after fir

died in hospital last night. His skull

Detectives said the man evidently
was affected by the heat, and believed
some one was trying to rob him.
He carried several thousand dollars
in cash, and planned to sail from New
York for Greece.
Railroad workers found Hlebaroff un-

all trade is speculative. It enters into the industrial life of each na- ton, into the political decisions of governments. Thus it directly af- fleets the welfare of the common people of every nation.
 Regrets Tariff Walls
 "The remedy for this situation lies primarily within the power of the American government; to a less extent it depends on the gov ernments of Great Britain, France, Germany and Italy.
 "The economic recovery of Ja- pan is closely linked with the MIRA and the outlook for early enforce ment of it's provisions for tariff barriers against imports threaten ing American industries under it's codes. We are waiting to see how far this will exclude Japanese man. ufactures.
 Ut is a regrettable feature of our present foreign trade boom that it is producing a tendency through out the world to raise walls against Japanese goods. For this reason we can not be optimistic over the out look for our overseas commerce although for the first nine months of 1883 it was 39 per cent larger in yen values than for the cor responding period of 1882.
 Our economic recovery is well underway, but is still confined to certain industries and classes. Dis tress prevails in the countryside and fishing villages and genuine prosperity can not be said to have returned until purchasing power is restored to our millions of small farmers and fishermen.
 "The revival thus far is due to the foreign trade boom and to ac- tivity in steel, chemicals and other industries producing military sup plies in fulfillmsnt of the replen- ishment programs of the army and navy"

Intuition Issue May Furnish
 Hot Politics in 1884 Campaign

there were agreement on the mean ing of the terms involved.
 Administration opponents talk Of themselves as the sound money crowd. Yet, MT. Roosevelt, too, is pledged to sound money'-the words come directly out of the last Democratic platform-and certain ly no one is going about shouting for "unsonnd money"
 The term imitation" is quite as elusive, as used today. Generally it means cheapening the value of money, and getting more of it into circulation. Some think gold-buy- ing is imitation; others even think imitation began under Hoover. Still others are assuring the country, There has been no imitation yet
 In Wall Street many regard Sen- ator Elmer Thomas as the widest kind of inflationist, but he, him self, hints that he is not for in flation at all. He says he wants currency expansion"
 Making A Party Issue
 Nor is that the whole difficulty. To be determining in a campaign, an issue must be made a party is- sue. How is that to be done?
 Many thought party lines pretty well demoralized by the campaign of 1882. It seems to have escaped general notice that the currency debate has demoralized them far more
 Al Smith was regular enough to support MT. Roosevelt for Presi- dent, but he is not regular enough to support him now. Senator Borah was not rnsurgent enough to bolt to Roosevelt in '32, but he is in- surgent enough to come to his de- fensa now.
 To millions of voters, it all is pretty much of headache. And probably the worst is yet to come.

JAPAN ANXIOUS
 ABOUT DOLLAR, SAYS MINISTER
Roosevelt's Monetary Poli cies Are Being Close

By GLENN BABE

TOKYO, Dec.11.- Pr S i d Il Roosevelt's monetary policies are watched with especial anxiety by the people of Japan, Korekiyo Tax ahashi, the 79-year -old finance minister and former premier, said here in strong plea for early stabilization of world currencies.
 Toward the gigantic effort of the MIRA the attitude of Japan is one of mingled hope and fear, MT Takahashi coptinued-hops that it will revive American purchasing power and thereby restore Japans richest market, and fear lest tar ifs imposed to safeguard Amsri- can industry operating under codes will curtail the booming expansion of Japanese trade.
 Calls Dollar World Key
 Without waiting for the inter- viewer to broach the subject, MT Takahashi opened comment on the gyrations of the dollar. He spoke vigorously and incisively, us sin g Japanese for the most part, but breaking into clear-cut English when the interpreter failed to drive home a point.
 "The first requisite for improve ment of world trades is stabiliza- tion of exchange rates" MT. Taka- hashi said For this reason we in Japan are watching with especla, anxiety the monetary experiments conducted by President Roosevelt

By BYRON PRICE (Chief of Bureau, the Associated Press. WaShingtOn)

One of the most confusing sit nations in all political history will confront the voters in 1884 if, as many expect, the imitation issue is carried over into the congression- al campaign.
 Even in 1896 when the silver dis pute developed many complicated ramifications, the question present. ed for decision sounded simple compared to the currency problem of today.
 There is no agreement as to what the administration plans to do with the wide inflationary pow CTS it has, and, on the other hand, there is no unison of thought among those who criticize the ad- ministration.
 Possibly some of the fog may lift as time goes by, but it is expecting a great deal to assume that any one is likely to appear on either side who can state the question simply and understandably in terms not open to dispute, so that it can be answered directly "Yes" or No"
 Double Doubts
 Broadly, it appears that most of the protests against the Roosevelt gold-buying program rests not so much on objections to the intrin- sic economic soundness of that pol icy, but on apprehension as to it's ultimate result.
 The apprehension takes two di- rections. Some argue that the con- stant change in gold prices, how ever much good it may be doing to the currency, is leading to dis astrous business uncertainty. Oth- CTS deduce that the gold program. although not dangerous in itself, is a first and irrevocable step toward later wild imitation.
 Stated more compactly, the pres ent question largely settles down to this: Can imitation be controll- ed?
 The answer would be easier if
