WOULD BAR YOUNG
BOYS UNDER CODE
Head of Children's Bureau Re-
quests Those Under 1s Be
Banned as Messengers.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
A request that boys under 16 be
barred from employment as telegraph
messengers was made to N. n. A.
yesterday by Miss Grace Abbott, head
Of the Children's Bureau OF the
Labor Department.
Miss Abbott's testimony continued
the public hearing on a proposed tele-
graph code, which Monday developed
a split between officials Of the West
ern Union and Postal Telegraph Co.'S.
Western Union declined to propose q
code, while Postal pressed demands
for stringent control Of competitive
practices in telegraph, cable and radio
communication.
Miss Abbott said q survey by her
bureau showed that Of II 900 Western
Union messengers and 5000 Postal
boys in tns country one-fourth were
under 16, one-half between 16 and 18,
and the remainder over Is. She said
the depression had brought about q
marked trend toward employment Of
older boys and she commended this,
saying the need Of the younger ones
for earnings was seldom SO great as
that of boys above 16.
The hazards of the messenger trade,
Miss Abbott added, were such that
nine out Of every hundred boys each
year suffered injuries sufficiently Sc

National Federation Declares

Another broadside from the Ma

ordered in the Post Office Department
retrenchment program.
It called attention to communica-

daily by the department, from Emer-

master General Farley, explaining
that postal substitutes, not having
regular employment, are entitled to
relief. then adds:
THE nature Of the Farley furlough
order, throwing $4,000 postal substi-
tutes out of employment and curtail-
ing the income of all others in the
postal service on the very day when
President Roosevelt called upon pri-
vate employers to employ more at
higher wages and shorter hours and
do it now,' is increased to the point of
irony by this frank admission that
the situation of those most severely
affected by the order is sufficiently
desperate to be the subject Of specific

EDITORIAL PACE
and
FEATURES
DON'T FORGET HATFIELD

Those who are opposed to Upton Sin
clair and his efforts to become governor
of California, call attention to the dan
ger of so centering attention on the con-
test for governor that the office of lieu
tenant-governor is overlooked.
Governor Merriam's running mate is
George J. Hatfield, while Sinclair's is
Sheridan Downey.
Imperial county will have a chance to
size up Hatfield tonight when he talks
over the local radio station at 6: :15 and
in the Barbara Worth school at Brawley
at o clock.
Hatfield is an outstanding attorney,
formerly United States district attorney
at San Francisco author of veterans
welfare legislation and an authority on
water legislation. He is a recognized
leader among the states war veterans,
and has been honored by them with
high office.
The importance of the office of lieu
tenant governor cannot be too greatly
stressed. This was brought home to the
people of California in the recent death
of Governor James Rolph Jr. Forum
ately his lieutenant-governor was a man
fully equipped by long years of legisla-
tive service and familiarity with Cali
fornia problems, to take the office of
chief executive
To elect Merriam governor and to
handicap him with a acknowledgements
of opposite political belief, would be
calamtous and would defeat the cause
of those opposed to Sinclairism, which
Sheridan Downey is supporting.
Even some who are strongly support
ing the Merriam campaign make the mis-
take of not emphasizing Hatfield as an
integral part of it.
This condition should be corrected at
once. The entire state must be made to
realize that it is necessary to elect Mer-
riam and Hatfield is order to give Sim
clairism the defeat that it deserves.

BEDTIME STORIES
BY HOWARD Z. GARRIS
Copyright 1884 by Mcclure Newspaper Syndicate)

Pine trees keep their long leaves,
like darning needles, all winter.
They are ever green. And when
the wind blows through them the
leaves seem to whisper and sing a
lullaby.
Uncle Wiggily Sleeps
eyes, it is very restful here, "
said Uncle Wiggily as he sat down
beneath the green pine tree and
listened TO its music. So soothing
was the song the pine tree sang
that, before he knew it, the bun
ny gentleman was fast asleep.
Then. as he slept, along came
creeping the sly weasel, whose fur
was changing from brown to white
to get ready for winter. Though a
small animal, the weasel is a very
Bad Chap. He is very fond of rab-
bits and loves 20 nibble them.
"Now am going to nibble Un-
Gle Wiggily!' whispered the weas-
Ell. He crept nearer and nearer.
The rabbit was sleeping soundly
for the song of the pine tree had
lulled him to slumber. The weasel
almost had the bunny gentleman
by the throat. But the kind pine
| tree was watching.
Suddenly, as the wind blew hard
er and the tree sang louder, it bent
down some of its low branches and
the sharp pine needles stuck the
weasel very hard in his back. "Oh,
! Wowzie doWZie!' he howled and
ran away just as Mr.. Longears,
awakened by the loud music, thank
ed the tree.
"You make sweet music but
your needles are sharp" said the
rabbit. And next, if you will kird-
ly ask the football to make a nat
for the head Of lettuce, III tell you
about Uncle Wiggily and Bunty S
boat.
