MACDONALD NOW DIRECTS
ALL west INDIA WORKERS

WASHINGTON, Nov. z (ANP)
-Liasion work between the thou
sands of workers that have come
into the country for agricultural
and other type jobs from British
colonies, except the Bahamas, is
now being performed by Herbert
Macdonald, it has been learned
here. Until recently his work as
lasion officer was just confined to
the government of Jamaica.
The change in authority now
places workers from Barbados and
British Honduras under his juris-
diction. The Duke of Windsor, who
is also governor of the Bahamas,
r e t i n responsibility for these
workers who have come from there.
Mr.. Macdonald told reporters
that those workers are now distrib
uted over some 80 states. He has
seven agents under him. He dis
closed that between five and six
thousand workers originally
brought here for agricultural pur-
poses have been transferred from
the War Foods Administration to
the War Manpower Commission
where they are working in canning
factories, forge and foundry shops
and in the forestry industry.

the most despicable propaganda
campaigns in the history of our
country. Nevertheless, at the end
of 20 years, 20 states have ratified
the amendment. If eight more can
be induced to take favorable ac-
ton, it will become a part of our
constitution.
Even if the amendment is not
ratified, there is every reason to
believe that strong federal child
labor law would be sustained by
the supreme court as now consti-
tuted In fact, that tribunal has al
ready reversed the decision which
knocked out the federal child labor
law passed during the Wilson ad-
ministration. In view of all these
fact why not follow the straight
and sure path? Instead of asking
for the enactment of state laws,
why not place the entire problem
before congress?"

ASK new FEDERAL
CHILD LABOR LAW

WASHINGTON, Nov. 8(ANP).
Pointing out that the states will
not do the job" Labor" organ of
the railroad brotherhoods, has edi-
torially advocated that congress
pass a child labor law to head off
those employers who would retain
the services Of young people called
upon during the period of war
preparations, in order to defeat the
efforts of organized labor.
The editorial takes issue with
Katherine Lenroot, chief of the
children's bureau of the depart
ment of labor who has appealed to
the state legislatures which will
convene in January to enact laws
establishing minimum standards.
She has in mind particularly the
barring of children under 16 from
manufacturing and other hazard
Gus occupations.
AT one time the supreme court
held that congress was without
authority to pass a federal child
labor law" the editorial states. "To
meet that situation a constitu-
tional amendment was submitted
to the state legislatures. 1t would
have been ratified within a few
months if the textile industry of
the south had not launched one of

The dangers of federal en-
roachment also were emphasized
in the committee statement, and
it. pointed out that federal pow
er agencies operating in the state
have already tried to move in
on ohe PUD movement, and are
likewise showing their hand in
the control and direction of the
campaign to put over Referen-
dunn 25. If all the PUBS in the
state were gathered together into
one statewide monopoly of cleo
trio power resources, the job of
the power-hungry federal bureau
Gratis would be much simplified;
they would have only one small
political clique to dominate.
1.-TWO years ago Referendum
25 was first advocated as a war
time measure. Time itself has
proved that a phoney statement.
Public and private power faeili-
ties are now joined together in
the successful and highly effici-
ent Northwest Power Pool, pro-
viding the maximum of power for
the war effort, and the State of
Washington has hung up a shin
ing record for war production.
"To start now, with the real
warfare of the Pacific still ahead
of us, to take apart and re-make
the power facilities of the state
would be unthinkable. We can
we'll afford to wait until the war
is over, before we undertake
questionable experiments such as

The Public Service Department
under Mr.. Langlies' administra-
ton has limited its protection Of
citizens rights to a certain class.
1t is quite sad that the Repub-
lican Party has fallen victim to
the Order of Cincinnatus. The
Cincinnatus group has no party
affiliation other than by their
own choosing. In this group one
may find Democrats, Socialists,
Republicans and What-nots, di-
recting the affairs of their or
ganization. The Republican Par
ty should be for Republicans who
will maintain the high ideals in
corporated into the party from
its incipiency.
I have been frank to call the
attention of my group and Of
the Republican Party to the type
of administration we have under
the present governor. Facts, and
only facts have been stated, and
it is left open for any or all who
care to answer. Space in The
Northwest Enterprise is offered
for this purpose, and anyone may
answer, an employee under the
administration, department
head, or the governor, himself.
Next week / shall attempt to
clarity my stand, and the purpose
l have in mind in calling my
peoples attention to the neglect
of their interest by our present
administration.

President initiated a British plan
for stabiIzing Greece. Hadn't
