A NATIONAL DISGRACE-CHILD LABOR

AS matters of national issue and import pass be- fore US the broad screen of national existence, from special seat close to the top of the world gaze down upon them with for the most part nperson al emotion and apathetic disinterestedness.
 This esoterc state of mind is perhaps due distance and isolation and perhaps the fact that of Alaska have voice affairs of the United States proper and very little in those of the Territory. However from time to time really vital issue up for general discussion nationally, and we figure that in majestic isolation we should take crack at it. Take for instance Child Labor
 The opponents to the child labor amendment, the grounds that # is unnecessary and encroachment States rights refuse to admit that substantial child labor problem exists yet in 1930 there 2145 959 children between the ages of 10 and 17 ganfully en- ployed
 During the short lived reign of the NRA percept- able reduction made in the ranks of child workers but with NRAs tumble into the Supreme Courts waste basket the 1886 increase the 1415 year old bracket of the child slave market was 150 percent
 All but one of the States now have some law regard ing the age which children may work but the inad- equcies of these laws is woefully apparent recent issue of the survey Graphic states-Nne States thru exemptions in their laws still permit children under 14 years to work in industry during school hours seven States permit children between II and 16 years of age to work nine to eleven hours day; States allow children in this age group to work until pm or later thirty two States have practically regulation of the employment in hazardous industry of 16 and IT year old girls and boys"
 It would appear that the ratification of the child labor amendment would terminate legislative laxty of this sort and curb and for all this vicious practice that has for many years been fostering sore on our body polite.

Annual effort to get more law
suits against corporations out of
Federal courts and before State
judges and juries is being led this
year by Representative Wilcox of
Florida. Technique is to abolish
legal fiction" that corporations
are citizens only of States where
they were incorporated. Repeal
of this rule would make it posi-
BILE to sue a corporation in State
courts WHEREVER it does bust
ness or has stockholders.
Previous measures of same sort
usually have been aimed at insur-
ance companies, but ALL corpora
tons operating in more than one
State would be affected by the
Wilcox bill. American Bar Asso-
citation has consistently opposed
such efforts. Defeat this year is
predicted by a number of lawyers
in Congress.

agree that fares for outing trips
are too low to bring much profit

mated in Europe, worked in big
way there, is expected to catch on

NEW YORK, May Z UN.S).
With rails again in the van, the
stock market turned moderately
upward today. Trading continued
at a relatively slow pace. Price
changes were of minor proper
tons.
The laSt-hour rally of yesterday
was extended as the market started
the day, but this attracted some
profit taking and brought con-
siderable irregularity through the
list. Just before noon, however,
fresh buying touched of in the
carrier division, lifted the general
run of stocks above previous clos
ing levels.
Atchison and N. Y. Central held
the spotlight in the rails. The
former again climbed into new
high ground for a point gain, while
New York Central, after opening
on a block of $4,000 shares, ad-
vanced almost as much. Union
Pacific was up point, closely fol-
lowed by Pennsylvania.
