THE LONG FIGHT NOT LOST

The Supreme Courts decision that
the Child Labor Amendment to the
Federal Constitution is still a lawful
and proper subject for action bv
states means that the long fight for
child protection in the highest law
has not been in vain. 1t will be a
spur to vigorous action by organized
labor, which has always favored this
amendment.
The resolution for this amendment
was passed by both House and SEN
ate in 1924. 1t has been fought by
almost every propaganda organiza-
tion that reactionism could muster.
The perfectly false and silly declara-
tion that this amendment would keep
farm children from doing chores on
the home farm has been solemnly
made in a score of legislatures; with
other assertions quite as bad.
To date, % states have ratified the
amendment-and of them have ad-
mitted that they were first tricked
into rejecting it. Eight more are
needed. Labor will have a big part
in getting them.

The Philadelphia Record publishes

legal action, and heavier penalties
than are assessed for almost any
other offense."
There you have, in few and plain
words, the fixed principles" of finan-
cial overlords and their spokesmen.
Government shouldn't interfere with
industry. The rights and liberties
and comforts of 100000 workers
are totally unimportant compared to
the whims of few thousand money
magnates. Unions are nuisance,
and any legislation to protect them is
a curse.
Mr.. Wiltse's remarks are plain
warning to labor that eternal vigi-
lance is the price of liberty.
The Butler County press. [volume] (Hamilton, Ohio) 1900-1946, 1939-06-16

The report of the Department of
Agriculture on farm income OF the
United States for 1888 is not pleasant
reading you compare it with
some other reports. Gross farm in
come of 1888 is given at $9,220,-
100000; while the gross income of
1887 was $10,35O,00O, 1000, drop of
nearly II per cent. But the gross
farm income of 1882 was $5,562, ,0O0,-
900. Compared to that, 1888 shows
gain of &C per cent, and that of 1887
a gain of sc per cent.
In other words, farmers did not
have a good year in 1888; but it was
year of rejoicing compared to the
one which hit them six years before.
In 1882, corn rotted in the fields and
wheat rotted in the shock; prices were
too low to pay for husking or thresh-
ing. The only people dealing with
farm products who look back to 1882
as banner season are the big to-
bacco companies. They paid the to-
bacco farmer literally less than the
fertilizer used had cost him; paid less
than starvation wages to no small
part of their workers; but lowered the
price of cigarettes not the remotest
fraction of cent.
The farmers plight in 1888 might
have been and was whole lot worse;
but he and his government have no
reason to be satisfied until it is a
great deal better.

WHAT NEXT?

The Department of Commerce re-
ports that the Germans have a new
process for manufacturing synthetic
rubber from waste hydrocarbons pro-
duced by synthetic gasoline plants
Consul S. B. Redecker at Frankfort
on-Main says that Germany's second
largest commercial rubber plant is
being built in Westphalia, and will
use the new process. The first syn
thetic rubber plant now operating at
Schkopau uses carbide as the basic
material.

delinquents will be in effect for 80
days, and the penalty will increase
2h per cent monthly until 10 per
cent penalty is in effect at the end of
90 days. Grevey said he had collected
the $4,000 accountability listed for
the first half of the twenty-frst col
lection of the 30-year assessment and
believed he would go several thou
sand dollars over it before the end of
the week. Books for collection of
