NEWSPAPERS OPINION
CHILD LABOR

| The proposed constitutional amendment which
would prohibit children under IL years OF age
working is dead for this year at least, since us
SPONSORS fell short by II states in procuring rat~
cations necessary for adoption of the amendment
We earnestly hope that within the next year some
of the states which have ratified the amendment
will reconsider the matter, and that the proposed
amendment may be blown to smithereens.
Right now one of the greatest problems OF the
country is to find some way in which to occupy the
time of our children especially in the cities. they
have so much leisure time that thousands of them
are forming bad habits and are becoming the Grim
inals of the land A child as young as II or Il
had better be at work rather than playing in some
dark alley, and acquiring evil habits that only lead
him to reform schools and prisons.
There are in this country growing number of
people, mostly women with pardonable soft hearts,
who have the preposterous idea that a person
should not be forced to do any work until he is
10 years of age. And you can mark it down, boy
or girl who does not learn to work before they
reach the age of 10 will never acquire the art.
We are absolutely opposed to putting children
to work at an early age for long hours each day
at some machine, and not giving them an oppor-
tunity to acquire education. But if the pro-
posed constitutional amendment is ratified, there is
nothing to keep governmental officials urged on
by group of women who have never had child
to rear, from going out on the farm of the nation
and forbid farmers making their boys pick peas
during the pea-pickng until after they have
reached Is years of age.
It's high time we were learning some sense in
this country about the principles which it was
founded. Certainly work was one of them, and
our forefathers did not wait until a child had be-
come man before they put him to work. And
we'll stack the early citizenship of this country up
against the modern citizenship any day in the week,
and know that the old gentleman will win in a walk
when it comes to happiness, sound thinking and
true Observation-Disclosures News and Press.

GETTING MORE COMPLICATED

The administrations decision not to contest an
adverse lower court ruling on the NRA is the Bech-
er Case involving the lumber code further pospones
final court opinion relative to consttutionaity of
the programs carried forward under the industrial
recovery act
Under such circumstances and in view of the in
creasng volume of critical attack upon many phases
of the NRA, it is obvious that it is we'll nigh n
practical mpossbility to revise this measure salts
factorily along permanent lines before the date of
the expiration of the act in June Yet if the meas
ure is continued largely in it's present form, it Is
likewise clear that the whole program will run on
under an increasing cloud of uncertainty and con-
fusion.
1t is therefore a grave question if the measure
should be continued The administration is finding
steadily increasing difficulties in administering the
program and it is almost inevitable that these diff
hcuties will grow more complex. Might it not be
possible to strip the measure to some simple provi
sons relative to hours and minimum wages and
abandon the great and complicated super-structure
of governmental supervision, of business? Might
not such move have really wholesome and con-
structive effect upon business progress Green

TEN YEARS LATER

Though the President has said that FERA would
be discontinued as soon as the public works pro-
gram had got sufficiently under way to permit Of
it, the senate voted last week at his request TO
authorize its continuance for another year. The
delay in passing the work relief bill given as
the explanation of the necessity for not abandon
ing cash relief. e., the dole-but it is hoped that
after rext winter the dole will be no more.
And certainly that is to be desired wholeheart-
edly and striven for. Yet The News, not unduly
pessmistc in its outlook, is willing to wager that
the dole in some other form will be with still,
come 1915 and the 10th congress.
Experience shows that once the federal govern
ment enters a new field it never withdrawS. Once
a bureau is established, and FERA for all its good
works is a bureau, only an act of God can abolish
it. Once governmental service is rendered the
demand for it never permits the discontinuance Of
it.
Although in 1915 FERA, cash relief, Roosevelt
and Harry Hopkins may have an unfamiliar sound,
there will still be, and We'll bet on it, dole, de-
partment of the dole, and the same futile talk Of
doing away with the dole. If not The News will
pay five cents in the then coin of the realm to
everyone who confronts it with this article and
who has evidence to show that the dole and the
doleful accoutrements are no more.-The Charlotte

slipper, there won't be any more
trouble about wars between ma

able to speak with finality.
This crisis had to come sooner

this crisis either like man or like

It begins now to look very
much as if the Allied armies made
a great blunder when they stopped
short of Berlin.
Treaties should mean something
besides little scraps of paper. The
only way that persons, firms and
corporations are taught to OBJ

disciplining them for refusing to
do so.
The only way that nations, not
bound by honor, can be made to
respect their treaties is by discip-

their treaties.
The League of Nations has its
golden opportunity. 1t should
welcome this opportunity and
grab it by the forelock and not

DENY PROFITS OF WAR, AND
ASSURE PEACE!
(By BRUCE CATION

An honest-to-goodness bill to take the
profits out of war might turn out to De an
excellent means of keeping the nation ont
of war altogether.
Take a look at the plan now being con-
sidered by the Senate munitions committee.
This plan, submitted by John T. Flynn,
New York financial writer, is reported to
bear certain amount of White House ap-
proval; and whether it does or not, it At
least suggests a new way of keeping the
country at peace.
This bill would take the profits out of
war with a vengeance Under its proVi-
sions, the government would take so per
cent of the first per cent profits Of cor
porations, and 100 per cent of all over that
in excess profits.
1t would limit all individual incomes to
$4,000, taking everything over that for
Uncle Sam. 1t would slap income taxes on
everyone earning more than $1,000 year,
and the rates would be stiff.
Furthermore, it would draft general Of
ficers of all corporations into the military
forces, and in case of need these gentlemen
could be put under the same sort of control
and pay scales that apply to army officers.
1t would close all commodity exchanges,
forbid speculation in commodities, license
industries and, where necessary, fix prices,
and commander for the government all
81 III,
The whole business is drastic enough to
take your breath away. But that it would
do what it sets out to do - remove the
profits from war-there is not the shadow
of a doubt.
Declaration of war would mean the be-
ginning of a dreary and irksome interval
for business and industry, under this
scheme furthermore, the government
should be able to pay all war expenses out
of income, and the stupendous bond issues
of past wars would be unknown
But beyond all that, it is highly probable
that such law would be powerful force
to make the nation keep the peace.
One of the chief dangers nowadays is
the fact that war does at least provide &
great, if temporary, squirt of prosperity.
Enormous profits are to be made.
That fact sticks in the back of every
ones head. 1t helps make us ready to &C
cept the idea of war; for we can never
forget that however trying the war period
may be, it will at least be a time of high
earnings.
We'd get different attitude if this
Flynn plan were law. The advent of war
would mean fewer profits, not greater ones.
s No one would have any financial incentive
for welcoming war.
Passing such bill might prove an ex-
cellent means of keeping the nation at
peace.
