EDITORIAL COMMENT
STATUS OF CHILD-LABOR
AMENDMENT

Fifteen years ago (June 2, '24)
Congress approved a resolution
proposing a child-labor amend
ment to the United States Con-
stitution. This was done after
unsuccessful attempts had been
made to pass a federal child
labor law which the courts would
uphold. The first such attempt
was made in 1916, and the law
was attacked in the case of
Hammer VS.. Dagenhart (247 u.
S. 251). The court held that the
act was an undue extension of
the interstate commerce clause
of the Constitution and therefore
declared it illegal. A second at
tempt, resorting to the use of the
taxing powers, also proved fut-
lie when the United States Su-
preme Court, in the case of
Bailey VS.. Drexel Furniture Co.
$3.50 U. S. 20), declared that al
though the law was a tax law in
form, it was nevertheless reg
ulatory in purpose and there
fore could not be made the
means of legislating on child lab
or.
1t was then decided to ap-
proach the regulation of child
labor through the medium of an

LabOr's New President
Well Read, Competent

IN choosing its new president for the COM
ing year, the Newark Federation of Lab
or has dipped into profession that, insofar
as we can recall, has never been called upon
to produce leader for the labor movement
in Newark. The man: Emerson L. Fish
baugh. The profession: teacher in the pub
lie schools. Too, the federation appears to
be calling upon younger men for this type
of leadership than ever before. And in this
connection we believe that Fishbaugh, his
profession and his age will prove a combina-
tion through which the federation can rise
to even greater heights.
Mr., Fishbaugh is gifted with a sense of
aggressive thought and action more neces-
sary to the cause of labor now than ever be-
annual report of the secretary to the cen
trail body, the organization made consider
able gains during the past year. AS was to
be expected, it suffered some reverses. And
in publicly stating these setbacks, what they
were and what effect they had on their
cause, labor confirmed the public's belief in
its honesty and sincerity.
What it gained came through the efforts
of it's own leadership since little is to be ac-
complished by any group through a policy
of non-pursuit. With Mr. Fishbaugh as it's
president that plan of action will undoubted-
ly continue. He is not pedant. Four
years of actual contact with and close study
of the labor movement provide him with an
adventurous mind when considering prob
lens of labor both from the organizations
standpoint and that of the public This
qualification is one reason for the high re-
pute in which the local labor movement is
held in Newark today
Labor in Newark should have success
full year if the ability of its new president
and reelected officials have any bearing in
the matter. And in such success all New
ark will derive benefit To that end we con-
gratulate Mr.. Fishbaugh and wish him WELL
And to his predecessor, Dale Bell, whose
terms in the same office were marked with
growth and achievement in labor's ranks,
the same good wishes in his undertakings

Ambassador Kennedy
Speaks Wisely

THOSE of us in Licking County who, over
dinner tables, at work. during social inter-
course, and even while at thought with our
selves, choose up sides in the present Euro
pean conflict and attempt to make issue out
of the part America should play in the war,
may gain considerably from the remarks of
United States Ambassador to Great Britain,
Joseph P. Kennedy. Said Mr.. Kennedy in
Boston shortly after his arrival in America:
"As you love America, don't let anything
that comes out of any country in the world
make you believe you can make the situa-
ton Tin Europe) one whit better by getting
into war.
"There is no reason-economic, financial
or social-to justify the United States en-
tering the conflict. There is no place in this
fight for u.s. It's going to be bad enough as
it is"
Brief, pertinent, the statement should be
a call to labor, industry, business, wives and
mothers to shoulder arms in battle against
any form of participation in the war. Ger
tainly, no one is better equipped to state the
true facts in the case as is Mr.. Kennedy. He
speaks from knowledge obtained in close
association with the clearing house of Euro
pean struggles.

Stimulate "Back To
Farm" Movement

TT is more than probable that the youth OF
Licking County could be made to see the
advantages of agriculture as life work if
those whose business and enterprise bear
upon agrarianism would come forward with
some sort of added stimulus to make life on
the farm more attractive, both from none
tary standpoint and an avocation as well.
Farming today has resolved itself into a
science and competitive business. Thus,
those who would profit by entering it's field
should know its workings thoroughly. To
do this requires study of it's theories and
practicalities.
There are many ways to encourage this
interest in farming. One made public last
week, was in the form of scholarship
awarded to Granville youth, Keith War
ner, for proficiency in All Club work, and
other farm activities. The award was made
possible by John Hornby of the Hulshizer
Milling Co., and it provides an eight-week
course in general farming at the Michigan
State College. One feature of the scholar
ship, and good one incidentally, was that
it was offered primarily for the benefit of
young Licking County farmer whose per-
sonal means were not adequate enough to
provide full college course.
Young Warner enrolled on January End
By the first of March he will be back home
in Licking County equipped in every respect
to continue farming as profitable life's
work. Mr.. Hornby is to be commended for
his generosity. His is the type of act that
should be followed by others. In years to
thriving agricultural community. One
whose foundation is built permanently upon
individual initiative.

New Administration
Goes To Work

FOR the first time in approximately IL
years the municipal government of New
<aIk has been placed officially in the hands
of an administration, the majority of whom
are Republican in political faith. Particu-
larly noticeable at the inaugural meeting of
City Council on Tuesday of this week was
the vigor with which Mayor Glen Wright,
City Solicitor Charles B. Holtsberry, Presi-
dent of Council Clint Conner and the four
) Democratic and five Republican members of
the council took hold of their jobs and went
to work. 1t denotes principally that we are
to have continuation of government by
men interested in their work.
Divided as it's members are politically we
cannot expect each and every one to see eye
to eye on measures and issues that are
bound to come up But such condition,
rather than being criticized, should some
times be encouraged. It will have the po-
tential effect of getting to the root of things
and more often than not emerging with
what is best.
During the next two years we should like
to. see. the public at large take greater in
tereglaa the proceedings of City Council by
attending more often and in greater num-
bers. Many good ideas have come to light
when some citizen takes to the floor and
voices his opinion on particular subject.
Very often the opinion vented has gone
against some member of the body, but more
often it is taken in the spirit meant and con-
sidered carefully.
The new administration begins it's tenure
with the approval of the majority of the
people of Newark. We feel it is capable of
great things, and feel sure that only after
careful deliberation will it arrive at any de-
cision which affects Newark and it's inhabi-
tants.
Inter-party cooperation will be necessary.
Reprisals for the most part should be for

It's horse senseou can pull more than you can carry

amendment to the Constitution.
Accordingly, the following Sec
tions were drafted and submit
ted to the states in 1924 for rati-
fication:
Section 1. The Congress shall
have power to limit, regulate
and prohibit the labor of per-
sons under 18 years of age.
Section 2. The power of the
several states is unimpaired by
this article except that the oper-
alton of state laws shall be sus-
pended to the extent necessary
to give effect to legislation en-
acted by the Congress.
Only one state (Arkansas) rat
flied the amendment during the
first year (1924) following its
submission to the states. In 1925
three states (Arizona, California
and wisconsin, took favorable
action, and in 1927 Montana did
likewise. Hence, in the three
years following the passage of
the amendment by Congress,
only five states had ratified it.
Thereafter, with the exception of
Colorado in 1881, no state adopt
ed the proposed amendment un-
til 1888. In that year fourteen
states (Illinois, Iowa, Maine,
Michigan, Minnesota, New Jer-
sey, New Hampshire, North Da-
kota, Ohio, Oklahoma, Oregon,
Pennsylvania, Washington and
West Virginia) were added to
the list of ratifiers. In 1886

four states Idaho, Indiana, Utah

four states Idaho, Indiana, Utah
and Wyoming) and in 1887
another four states (Kansas,
Kentucky, Nevada, and New
Mexico) accepted the amend
ment. Since 1897 no further rat
ifications have taken place. AS
of July 1, 1889, the number of
ratifying states remained twen-
ty-eight.
Under the Constitution, pro-
posed amendment must be rati-
fled by legislatures of three
fourths of the states before it
becomes valid. 1t will therefore
be necessary for eight more
states to act favorably before
the amendment becomes law.
During the period since the
first submission of the amend
ment, in 1924, some of the states
have rejected it, and a few states
have taken no action one way
or the other. Some states have
even reversed their previous
stand in the matter. Such was
the case in Kansas, where the
Legislature rejected the amend
ment in 1925 and approved it in
1887.
On June 5, 1889, the Supreme
Court of the United States rul-
ed that Congress alone has the
power to determine how long a
proposal to amend the Consti-
tuition is subject to ratification.
Since no time limit for ratifica-
tion was placed on the amend
ment by Congress, it is therefore
possible under this ruling for ad-
ditional states to act favorably
or even to reverse their previous
unfavorable action. Many of the
state legislatures meeting in
1889 have adjourned and the ma
jority of them will not meet
again until 1941. Unless the
governors of states that have not
ratified the amendment call the
respective legislatures into ex-
traordinary session for that pur-
pose, there is little likelihood
that any action will be taken on
the child-labor amendment dur
ing the next two years. Month

gotten. Cooperation from the city as a

THE WRONG GENDER

A negro minister was caught
hugging one of the sisters of the
flock, and a church trial was
called. Eye witnesses testified,
and the minister confessed but
eloquently defended his actions
as proper and authorized by the
Bible.
He maintained that as pastor
of the flock he had a perfect
right to take one of his lambs in
his arms, and cited Jesus, the
Great Shepherd, for example.
When the trial was finished,
good brother offered a resolu-
tion, as follows:
"We excuse Brother Johnson
from all blame, but hereafter
when he wants to take one of his
lambs in his arms we suggest
that he select a ram lamb"

THE ZERO HOUR

BY a strange coincidence,
ginning with 1910 every man
elected to the presidency in a
zero died in office. In other
words, the President elected in
1910 and the one elected in ev-
cry twentieth year thereafter
failed to complete his term of
office. The Presidents, with the
dates of their election, are as
follows:
1870 William H. Harrison.
1860-Abraham Lincoln.
1880-James A. Garfield.
1900-WiIliam Mckinley.
1920-Warren G. Harding.
After considering this, the po-
tential candidates may not beexk
anious to capture the 1910 eled-
tion.
