MONDAY, DECEMBER 1
For Greed or
One child in every ten in the United States is em
ployed in gainful occupation. Thirty-five states allow
children to bo so employed without the pro-requisite of
a common school education and without requirement
for schooling in off hours while employed. Eleven
states allow children under sixteen to work from nine
to eleven hours a day. Four states allow children to
work at night. . '
To those who arguo that regulation of child labor
may be safely left to the states, the foregoing paragraph
gives some dotails of tho answer. ' And there is a com
plete summary of the answer to that same argument in
a paragraph from a recent edition of the Western Chris
tian Herald, a Methodist publication, which points out
that regulation of ohild labor "has always been with
tho statos, and the evil still pemains."
Tho federal' child , labor amendment, which points
tho ono arid only certain wax towards stopping tho ex
ploitation of childhood irji commercialized industry for
the sake of greed,, is now before the states for ratifica
tion. Arkansas has ratified it by legislative act. North
Carolina and Georgia have rejected it through their
legislatures. Through advisory referendum tho voters
of Massachusetts have disapproved it. The count thus
far is three for grQcd; ono for childhood.
Thirty-six states must ratify the amendment to
make it effective. Oregon is next. It will be before the
Oregon legislature next month. What will tho Oregon
legislature dot What aro the people of Oregon doing
to make known oheir 'desire to tho mombers of tho legis
lature? Shall;Oregon go on the side of greed or on the
side of childhood T

Egypt Bites
I J&ypt is hold Vassal bjr Great Britain. Her people",
J.vfh06e of them who are intelligent, desire for their
i country independence. Negotiations for that inde
: pendoTjco have been carried on between Egypt and
Britain through several years past. Each of the Brit
ish, cabinets in successive -. power sinco tho world-war
ended has held out for valuable concessions in tho Sudan
and elsewhere in Egypt and for a censorship of Egyp
tian foreign affairs. If these were granted, but not
otherwise, Britain was willing to give to Egypt control
of what by right is Egypt's own.
Egyptians regarded Britain's demands as unjust
and popular feeling grow. The culmination was the
shooting of a British general in Cairo. It simply pitched
Egypt out of the frying pan into tho fire. Now Britain
is putting Egypt out of tho Sudan entirely. She is
taking $2,500,000 damages for. tho slaying of tho goneral.
She is demanding rigorous suppression of political
demonstrations of all sorts. Sho is imposing other dras
tic and humiliating conditions. Tho chancos of even
limited independence for Egypt has gono glimmering.
Completely cowed, sho grovels and licks the' British
boots.
It is all wrong. Egypt belongs of right to the
Egyptians. Of course tho Egyptians resented demands
for concessions to bo made in return for letting them
have what was their own. Why shouldn't they resent
itt What people wouldn't! But, because tho Egyptian
government was unable completely to repress tho mani
festation of a natural and justified resentment, Egypt
is being ground into the dust.
Here is a real job for the lcaguo of nations. Isn't it
interested, or is it, also, cowed!
Colonel E. Hofer, as presidont of tho Oregon hu
mane society, is directing a nation-wide campaign to
promote cnactmont of laws in all states to prohibit tho
carrying of dogs on tho running boards of automobiles,
unless the animals are protected by carriers from danger
of- falling. It is a campaign for protection of tho help
less and is worthy. Kogarding it, ono's thought involun
tarily turns to that other campaign for protection of
the helpless, represented by tho federal child labor
amendment. . Tho ono represents effort to protect dumb
animals; tho other to protect littlo children. How can
anyone with a heart' big enough to espouse tho former
opposo the latter! t
Tho federal house of ' representatives voted to let
Henry Ford take over tho Musclo Shoals project. Tho
Bonate has a substitute plan calling for government
execution of tho project.. Mr. Ford makes good in nil
that ho attempts industrially. Tho federal government
is soldom efficient or cconomienl when-it carries its
activities into fields apart from those of governmental
administration. Look at (lie wartime record of the
government operation of railroads. Tho country's best
interests would be served by persuading Mr. Ford to
reconsider the withdrawal of his Musclo Shoals offer.
Ho could curry tho project to certain bucccss.
Imaghio nnving two weeks' work dumped down in

COMMENT OF

(The Oregnnlan)
The argument Ihst America ought
in revoke prohibition because the
available supply of whisky is villain
ous bss never seemed a sound one.
None are constrained to drink the

he buys it nr hss it in his possession.

sarily bad for the reason that It is
simpler lo manufacture synthetic
whlaky then to smusgls lh genuine
article over the border or Into port.
In a wsy, that appears In prove the
gradual aurreaa of prohibition, since
it drmonatratra that the mrrh is
tightening.
Theae allusions o evil whisky, to
poisoned potations, arise naturally
from tile news story which relates the
experience of a prominent actor, who
coamders himself fortunate to encase
from a hospital with his eyesight only
partially impaired. In the same day's
news one finds the report of a cbein
:Jt for tho internal revenue depart
ment in Minnesota. lie has examined
16,000 bottles of alleged whisky and
declares that less than one-half of one
per cent of such stuff is genuine.
From this evidence the reasonable
man must conclude that it is not only
unlawful to go a-bunting a drink, but
also as perilous as dancing bore-footed
in a dun of rattlesnakes.
A Saorlflce to Disarmament
(New York World)
Under bombardment by tbe four-teen-incb
guns of the battleship Tex
as, the armored hull of the Washing
ton escaped destruction. What that
proves, the naval experts will later
explain. The tests, ot course, could
not be conducted under war-time con
ditions. That, limits their practical
value. A stationary target at a meas
ured distance is not tbe same thing as
an enemy battleship in motion and
mounting guns of tbe highest power.
Experiments in tbe past have work
ed much the same way. It was &
question of matching guns against
armor-plate a game of see-saw.
Sometimes the guns were inferior in
attack, sometimes the armor inferior
in resistance. Either way, there were
endless appropriations by congress.
And so there was endless competition
between nations in guns, armor and
speed of fighting ships, with naval
supremacy as tho. goal each striving
to the limit of its resources and spur
red on by the fear of being outdone
by rivals.
But whatever the bombardment of
tho Washington off Capo Henry may
prove to tho satisfaction of the na
val experts, its destruction is a dem
onstration that the world has come
to a pause in the mad race of naval
armament. It may seem a tremendous
waste of money to sink this great
warship, but it is a sacrifice that the
United States makes toward the limi
tation of armament. It is done in ful
fillment of a solemn treaty looking
to the advancement of peace and hot
ter understanding. For that reason,
regardless of everything else, it is
worth doing, hecsase disarmament by
agreement among the powers makes a
day of peace more sure.

Chapter 23
The next morning Kent came to me
Just before he left for the office.
"I want you to draw that $300 out
of tho bank today and have it here
for mo when I get home," he told me.
I looked up In surprise. I did not
question him and he went on to ex
plain: "I shall take a hurried trip over to
Philadelphia tonight. I'm going to
Sec if I can't get the diamond," he
finished. I could see that he was
greatly agitated.
"Yes." 1 answered simply. I knew
it would not help him to ask questions
or dwell on the subject.
"I'll try to get home from the of
fice a littio early say about B o'clock.
There, la a train about 7 that I ran
oatohr You might have a little soino
thing ready for me to ent. It'll save
time," be explained.
"I'll havo everything ready," I as
sured him.
I kiaard Kent goodbye and some
thing that morning made me cling
a trifle longer and more tenderly to
him before I let him go. 1 was sure
bis eyes were moist aa he turned at
last to leave ins.
I went up town enrly and drew
the money out of the bank. It wiim
s much happier person that drew It
out thnn the one who hnd placed it
there fearfully, not quite eight weeks
brfure.
But even so, my thoughts were rot
entirely happy or free from doubts
and forebodings. The details of
Kent's trip to Philadelphia were un
known to me. He bad not told me,
and I was not sure that I wautrd him
to. Hut the fart that he was going
back again made me nervous. There
was no telling what might happen.
Still he waa doing the very thing
that I bsd longed to here him do,
and I determined to be hrave.
I waa reaily and watching for him -at
ft o'clock. I did not have tn wait ,
long. At ten miuutca past 1 saw him

who do not like that section of the
city. East 87tb street.
This does not take into considera
tion the fact that in Albany, N. Y.,
twenty-eight persons and an under
taker named Joshua Soraclhing-or-other
are perfectly crazy from trying
to work cross-word puzzles, and it is
doubtful If any of them will ever re
cover, although one of the twenty
eight, a girl, was crazy over a- man
once and got over it.
The Puzzler's Favorite
This brings us to the Bronx Zoo.
No cross-word puzzle is complete
without an Australian bird in three
letters, ending in "u,"- starting with
"e," and with the first letter of
"money" as its middle. There's al
ways an odd space in the puzzle
where the Australian bird fits in, snd
its popularity has therefore been
greatly increased.
Likewise with an African antelope
In three letters (it's "gnu," but don's
let on where you got your informa
tion). Likewise with a large snake in
three letters. (What goes with "fea
ther," worn around the neck by the
Florodora Sextet?).
MoBt cross-word puzzles would be
complete flops without these three
creatures, and the fans have come
to look upon them with something
a little more und a little less than
real affection. Many a time, when
it waa 3:30 o'clock, and the fan has
to be at the foundry at eight, and
all seems black because there's just
that wee, tiny spsce standing between
him and the solution of the puzzle
many a time, the emu, the
gnu or tho boa has hopped forth and
saved tho duy, and four and a half
hours later that man has gone to
work and doubled, nay, tripled, NAY,
quadrupled call you! his produc
tion.
' rittf BAtifnrrfft- nf MflHt
. Small wonder is it, then,' that
crowds of grateful enthusinsts are
flocking dnily to the Zoo to pay trib
utes of love and affection to the use
ful animals who play such important
parte in the country's fourth great
est Industry, the other three being in
the order named, the steel, plush
plants and moving picture businesses.
Only last week the people at the
V.nt tint n letter from a fnn in Sno-
j kane, asking if he could buy an e-u or
a b-a to have as a household pet, be
cause they had saved his reason so
fften that lie felt he should do some
thing for them. Tbe people at the
7,oo wrote back a kindly, sympa
thetic letter, telling the man to cense
his Spoksnery and to go back to bis
six-letter word raesning rebus.
Almost all the visitors at the Zoo
stare long and hard at the e-u and
the g-u and mutter "Huh." Xesterday
afternoon three visitors demanded to
be taken into the presence of "a fab-
coma hurrying up the street.
We sat down and had a hasty sup
per together. Neither of us talked
much our hearts wcro too full.
"Now Babs, if you will get me the
money," he said, when wo bad fin
ished. I got, it for him and he went to
his room for a few minutes. When
he came back I was surprised to see
that he waa not taking a bag ot any
sort.
"Pid you forget your suitcase?" 1
inquired, thinking in his excitement
he might have left it iu his room.
"No dear, I'm not going to take
one. I don't Intend to stsy one min
ute longer than I have tn, and I'm
coming straight back hern to you if
I have to travel all night." Then he
took nit in his anna, and held me
ever so tightly for a second.
"Ho careful," 1 cautioned, forcing
bark tho tears. "God bleaa yon!"
lld 1 Imagine it, 1 wonder, or did
Kent hold his head up A little higher
end his shoulders a little more
straight aa I watched him go down
the street?
And then when Kent was gone and
I was alone, I realized that the big
gest and moat difficult part waa atill
ahead of ua. To get the diamond hark
again to Victor Lachman without be
ing discovered was a stupendous un
dertaking, Aa 1 thought about it, 1
wondered that I had ever dared to
contepiplate its possibility.
Now It aeemed hopelrws. 1 com
menced to reaaou with myself that
the only way out w-nuld be to make
a clean breast of It all, and trust t
Mr. Lachnisn's merry. It would kill
Kent. I shuddered at the thought
aud yet something even stronger than
conscience toid me thst that diamoud
must be returned, or made good.
And way Into the small hours of
tin morning as I sat up waiting for

some solution out of tbe horrible '
