Wadsworth And Helen White. HfnnK Aflriit.nl is boinir made by opponents of tho fed- ' eral child labor amendment ator Wadsworth, of New York, in the United btates sen ate May 29 last in opposition to tho amendment.

New York, of course, will ratify the amend ment. The republican senator's yote asnlnut the resolution was an insult to his constituents and to his party. , ITolen White, who. . according to a communication which she sends to tho. World, is 14 years old and for threo years past a summer, worker, voices her outraged protest at the World's desertion of tho children's causo, in part as follows: ......... . . You hare utterly disregarded the excellent benefits which the proposed child labor amendment promises to every worker and . struggling parent You are more willing to see the employers' pockets fatten. Let the unemployed die In poverty I Give the right to life, liberty end happiness to children factory workl Sensible parents need the assistance of their children! The United Slates doesn't need educated American cltliensl The state laws are good enough nowl I am at present fourteen years of age and have been working for three summers In succession, without working , papers, in clothlnr factories. Oh, how long will capitalists , siniorse the blood out of us poor workers I And The World dares to help it -along. Now this is, of course, what opponents of the amend ment refer to as mawkish sentiment on the part of its supporters. In this case, however, it is tho voice of one l who knows. Does it have the ring of sincerity or doesn't , it T Does it denote a condition that needs correction or doesn't it! Let the opponents of tho twentieth amend ment answer.

Oregon's Interest In 20th Amendment This State At Competitive Dis advantage With Those Which Permit Commercialization of Lnbor of Children Moral Con sidoratlons Involved. (Oregon Voter) Oregon toduy has more advanced legislation for control of child labo;' ftim congress is likely to enact ehoul'1 the child labor amendment to tbe fed eral constitution be ratified. There is little or no probability that congress would ttttempt any regulation of child labor that would be more stringent than Oregon, ss a stute, would itself enact snd enforce. Oregon today is at a competitive disadvantage with states which bsva law standards of child labor regula tion. The products of our Industries must compete with the products of the industries of stntes which permit the labor of children of tender lenrs for long hours dailv in industrial pur suits. Tbe effect of this competition is felt by many Oregon industries. This disadvantage under which Ore gon 'lnbors would be removed should congress be empowered to- apply i minimum standard of enlld labor rcg.i. lation to all states ulike. Oregon in dustries then would no longer be at tbe mercy of competition of low paid children of tender yours who reside in stntes which have been back ward in adopting such standards !.s enlightened aud humsoe civillzatbu sxacta as minimal. Having ns high standards s nov aro enforced by the state of Oregon, proper regard for the competitive welfare of our own industries dictu.jB tbut Oregon do Its utmost to secure adoption of reasonable minimum stan dards in all other states which lack them. The pending amendment opc:is the way for this. Opposition to the amendment is based primarily on Bread of delegit- lng jurisdiction to congress over sub jects which con be handled better locally on the stntes. Via of Oregon have had unite a taste of what fed eral bureaucracy will do in adminis tration of affairs which we believe we could have handled fur better our selves more economically and far more fairly and efficiently. Our ex perience, and the experience of the entire country, has taught us as cltl seiiB that once the federal government Is given jurisdiction over any field, lis regulation will bo enforced by s burraucrney that Is not amendable to FORBIDDEN!

"I'm tired bein' th' guinea pig around this bouse," said Lafe Ilud, this mornin', as be threw some felt griddle cakea on th' floor and tore out. local consideration. And Oregon Is HOOO miles away from where the fin-il decisions are made by the heads of the federal bureaus. Meanwhile we are at the mercy of the local federal officers, who often are so enmeshed in red tspe that they cunuot exercise discretion to adapt their administra tive practice to local necessities. Any delegation of power to the fed eral government is beset with this peril. t As against this danger there is pri. marily the moral consideration that without federal regulation of Child labor the backward status will con tinue to permit conditions that urc rcvoltiug to a humane civilization. On tliis inorul consideration alone it would appear that Oregon could do nothing, with decent respect for it self, other tbnu to invest the federal government with power to correct the fliiKi-ant evil, even rJiongii tne incon venience and expense of u new federal bureaucracy are involved. Hut, as suggested above, ther- also is the economic consideration. that of industrial competition with Oregon by states whose child labor standards are degrndingly low. The burden of a federal bureaucracy would bear far less upon Oregon industry than the burden of child labor compe tltlon benrs today. Humanity demands that Oregon rat-if.- the child labor amendment, anl economic equity supports the ratttlca, tlon as n protection to our industries. In Lighter Vein Fully Explained.

"I might have known that your love for a man would he like that like the way you love Kent. You didn't just lnvo him for the things he did for you. Yon loved and wanted his soul, and and you couldn't give him up so easily. I guesa I didn't kn:W much about real love until I saw and understood bow you felt the other afteruoon.
