Papers As a
Kid Is a Good Start
May Land in Jail

boy
who gets his start in life" selling
newspapers is much more likely to
land up in jail than in the White
House or Wall Street. Warden Lewis
E. Lawes of Sing Sing prison has
looked into the matter statisically in
his bailiwick, and in a telegram read
at a hearing on the newspaper code he
testified to the large number Of prison
inmates who get their start in that di-
rection selling newspapers as children.
The hearing wa called to consider
a proposed amendment to the code,
suggested by the Dept. of Labor to re-
duce the extent Of child labor in the
newspaper industry. The fact that
practically all the publishers (most of
them so generous in editorials against
child labor esewhere) opposed the very
mild amendment, was soon revealed.
J. David Stern wa the only publisher
listed TO appear in its favor.
The amendment would forbid en-
ployment OF girls under IS and boys
under IA at selling or delivering pa
pers, except that boys from Il to IA,
already employed, could continue to
work. Boys from "A to 10 could not
work more than 8 hours a day on
school days, and 4 hours on other days.
Under the present code, both boys and
girls under 10 may be employed de-
livering and selling papers, though
there are some restrictions on night
selling.
Lawes sent a telegram to Courtenay
Dinwiddie, secretary of the National
Child Labor Committee, in which he
said: Recently, l had a census taken
here in Sing Sing to determine the
number of inmates who had sold news
papers in their youth. The examina-
ton showed that of the 1900 men,
over 90 per cent had done So" He
went on to say that Juvenile delin-
quency and so-called criminal tend
encies are largely the result of detri-
mental influences and associations
that can often be corrected"

PEOPLES LOBBY SAYS CONGRESS STARVED
PEOPLE TO SUBSIDIzE THEIR PROPERTY

WASHINGTON. - FP) az h {
Seventy-Thir Congress will be known
as the Congress which subsidized prop
erty and starved people," says the
Peoples Lobby through its executive
secretary, Benjamin c. Marsh. He
points out that "at least five million
people are far below a decent living
standard, and as many more near it"
Although nearly two-fifths of the
total national income in 1882 was from
property and 5 per cent Of the people
received most OF this property income,
Marsh says, most legislation enacted
by the last Congress was to protect
property interests, at the peril Of pro-
ducers and consumers"
The house bill program is described
as sinister handouts to land specula-
tors and profiteers in building mate
rails" in the Lobby statement; the

REPLIES TO
FALSE STATEMENTS

ITO the Members of Organized La
Dor and Citizens OF this state | desire
to present for your consideration my
reply to an unjustified, malicious, lib
elous attack on my candidacy by Jerry
O'Connell, a political opponent in the
contest for railroad and public service
commissioner for which | am a can
didate, with malicious intent to injure
my name in the minds Of the union
labor voters of this community.
AT various political and union meet
ings thru out the state at which | had
no opportunity to reply to his asser-
tions, he stated to the members as
sembled that | was injected into the
race for railroad commissioner by the
officers of the Anaconda company to
help defeat him for that office. That
statement is absolutely false and with
out foundation or truth. If this was
true l could plaster the state from one
end to another with campaign litera-
ture. | have less than 500 campaign
posters scattered thru out the state,
and as a matter OF fact when Tiled Tor
commissioner, I had not read or heard
who filed for this post.
an his assertions he says | am en-
ployed by the Anaconda company in
making these statements, he knows
they are malicious untruths. | have
worked less than three months for the
Anaconda company during my life
time, and that was more than q years
ago.
His slanderous remarks were made
to villify my unimpeachable record as
a citizen and were made to prejudice
the members Of organized labor against
my candidacy, thereby debasing him
self as a man unworthy OF any citizens
respect, by linking my candidacy with

Negroes Losing Land

NEW Y~ORK-FP)-The Negro
owned 2H million acres of land less in
1880 than in 1920, and from 1880 to the
end of 1888, lost approximately $780,
600 additional acres of land, according
to John P. Davis, secretary of the
Joint Committee on National Recov-
cry.
The failure of the credit machinery
created by the Roosevelt regime to
stem these land losses was a calamity
to Negro farmers" and as a result
more and more of the Negro farm
owning population has been forced
into the debased position Of the farm
tenant and sh%arecropper," Davis
pointed out.

HEAVY TRANSFERS
MARK SHARP DROP
IN GRAIN MARKET
DoWnturns Predominant Al
though Slight Recovery Is
Made in Late Trade

Chicago, April 17.-lP)-Enormous
transfers Of ownership Of grain flu
lures Tuesday accompanied swift
changes In price, with big downturns
predominating.
The wheat market at times showed
losses of approximately 8 cents a
buSl1el for AZ hours. Recurrent wav-
es Of general selling swept the grain
pits, forcing new low price records
for the season In every cereal.
Some recovery in values near the
end of the day was associated with
upturns Of securities and of cotton,
with more favorable comment from
Washington regarding prospects for
enactment Of proposed silver legis-
lation.
Wheat closed nervous. rs to ~

Is: July 1875 to u. Corn n to u
down, May 42as to ": July 45h to
u; oats Is off to "a up. and provi-
sions unchanged to II cents decline.
New low price records for the season
were reached Tuesday by every grain
on the list. In large measure the rush
of selling orders resulted from over
night heavy calls for additional funds
to protect commission houses and
brokers handling trade.
Tempted by bargain counter prices
for all grains, the bulk of trading
shifted sharply at times to the buying
side. As result, wheat and corn
climbed swiftly back to within about
= cent Of Monday S finish. and oats
scored an actual gain.
For the most part corn. oats and
other grains paralieled the action of
wheat.
Provisions reflected downturns of
hog values.
