(Special) . Although I. E. Conn, a local grocery- man, has been leaving his safe un locked so that robbers would not blow it open, when he entered the store this morning he found it blown to pieces and about Sl.ouo in money, notes and valuables missing. The door was found in the opposite side of the 30-foot room and marks on the ceiling and walls indicate that it had struck the ceiling on the opposite side of the room and then descended through a tier of shelving, demolish ing dozens of coffee cans and other merchandise. Although there are a large number of residences near the store only one man heard the explosion, and after a short investigation decided that it was only a gunshot and returned to bed.

Criticisms of the new federal child labor law are "with out any foundation whatsoever, and the persons who are giving tnem puo licitv are either insincere or incompe tent," says Senator Cummins in a let ter received today by Owen R. Love joy, general secretary of the Nation al Child Labor committee. "I have just read your letter" says Senator Cummins, "suggesting that certain critics of the recently enacted child labor law claim to have discovered n joker or jokers m the act which re flect upon either the integrity or in telligence of those who are responsi ble for its passage. If Republicans are making any such charge against tne law in order to discredit tne ad ministration, the effort is disreputable and must react upon those who are foolish enough to give currency to the charge. If democrats are endeavor ing to impeach the good faith of the republicans who helped to compose and pass the bill, they are guilty of a flagrant offense against public mor als." Senator Cummins goes on to say that if the Supreme Court is called upon to decide the constitu tionality of the law and grants that it is constitutional, "it will end for all time the employment of children un- ler conditions forbidden in the stat ute. The claim, if it is made, that the Drohibition of the statute can be evaded by retaining the output of a mine, quarry, mill, cannery, workshop, j factory or manufacturing establish ! ment for thirty days after children have been emploved and that then the i output may be snipped from the state j of production to some other state is ; too absurd for consideration.

An honest exam ination of the act will convince any person that it is just as effective as it could be made without creating such a disturbance in the commerce of innocent people as would have awak ened a sentiment against the measure that would have brought about its speedy overthrow. I have reviewed again the entire subject and I am thoroughly persuaded that the ' act would effectuate the humane purposes toward which the friends of child la bor legislation have for a long time been striving."
