Where Are Its Friends?
Ono scans the Portland daily newspapers in vain
these days for any utterance regarding the federal child
labor amendment. The legislature which is to decide the
fate of the measure, so far as its ratification or rejection
bv Oregon is concerned, is to meet within a few days. J. he
issue approaches its climax. Do the Portland news
papers think it has ceased to be an issue of interest!
There is misunderstanding of the federal child labor
amendment in Oregon, as elsewhere. This misunder
standing is tho basis of much of the opposition to the
amendment. Many hold tho mistaken belief that, the
measure is a bill for a law whos adoption would auto
matically and at once prohibit any labor by boys or girls
under eighteen years of age. Many erroneously -believe
the measure aims at federal control of the schools. Many
:c,w,i,r -HiitiV it wnnld hreak down parental autbor-
ity. All of such ideas are wrong, but many people have !
been deceived upon these ana other ponus uy persona
and organizations having a selfish interest, direct or in
direct, in the exploitation of child labor..
Now, if ever, is tho time for friends of the federal
child labor amendment in Oregon to come to itsaid.
This includes newspapers. There is need that tnc
amendment be explained and made known to the people
in its proper light. There is need that fmends of the
measure in every district make known their wishes re
'garding it to their legislators. ; .
The forces opposed to the amendment are-not in
active. Eich organieations of the south and tho cast
are seeing to it that members of tho Oregon legislature
shall be propagandized against tho measure. Their lobby
will bo on the ground at Salem, in personal contact with
the legislators. . ,
Tho Guard recently suggested that the amendment
might be ratified by tho legislature, subject to referen
dum vote of tho people. This suggestion was made be
cause many members of tho legislature confess they do
not know what tho desire of their constituents is 're
garding tho matter. A referendum would insure final
action in accordanco with the pcoplo's desire. Because
of this suggestion Tho Guard has been accused by an
opponent of the amendment of "letting down" in its
advocacy of the measure Tho. Guard is by no means
"letting down." But it is beginning to feel a little like
a voice crvinrr in tho wilderness. Where are all the
newspaper friends of ho federal child
anyway? They used to he vocal onoug.ii.

For Cross-Word Puzzle Fans Only.
"It does "arouse my ire," said tho omu, "to see
how tho boa is being put abovo tho asp by the cross
word puzzle makers. Tho asp, I submit, is on a par
with the boa and can vie with him in all.' It is my view
that the boa is not an em or even an on ahead of the
uso. There Is no roason within my ken why they should
nlav un tho boa and play down tho asp. Yet if one trios
to put asp ,rather than boa in a thrce-lotter space, the
cross words do not fit and tho result is pi. It does irk
me so.
"Both tho gnu and tho .ass, who came hero by sea
via tho Po, sob when thoy gab about it. Tho pa and
tho ma of the asp cry in their ale over it. Their tears
would fill a vat or an urn. Tho whole thing is a mar
on this era." . ' , , .-, ,
dangering the eiiBtiog cordial rela
tion." Nor will they fail to take note of It
when Mr. Mataudaira, tiie newly ap
pointed Japanese ambassador to tlie
United States, aod Baron llajuhl,
the Japanese embassador in London,
speak in tbe same vein. To tbosa still
in a reasonable stale of mind aucb
official declarations from both sides
must be conclusive. More than that,
they indicate tbe purpose tiiut tbe
existing cordial relations eball bt
preserved.
Huron Hayasbl makes it clear that
there are ''jingo elements in various
countries of the world, my own In
cluded," wbo practice tse same meth
ods of misrepresentation. lie is no
less right in saying tbat they are "dis
regarding by the bulk of their na
tionals." For jingoism is an industry foster
ed by a certain class of politlcans
everywhere. They play into one an
other's bands at long range by incit
lni trouble. What a Britten may aay
in Washington carries no weight in
tins country. The Chicago man s an
tics are old atage play. But in Japan,
wbere he ia not known, there is dan
ger that they will be misunderstood.
So a Japanese politician In Tokio may
discharge frothy talk and his word4,
disregarded there, acquire undue im
portance in tbe United States through
ignorance of his standing, ft might

COMMENT OF THE PRESS
No State Income Tax.
(The Oregonian)
The late atate income tax lived long
enough to disclose-that it would raise
upwards of (2,000,0(10 annually for
public revenue. The people voted i
down under the referendum. Now
there Is no income tux.
What does tho verdict of tJie peo
ple mean? Was It that they were
gainst thia particular income tat.
or (bat they wanted no Income tax?
Or both?
Certainly it will be agreed that a,
great part of the adverse vote of the
electorate was cost against the prin
ciple of the income lax; and certain
ly it will ba agreed that an effective
case waa made agaln-t the discrim
inatory Snd unscientific plan of tli'

KENT JR. AND TOM BARNEY
Chapter BO
When Kent Jr. reached the Inter
esting age of tbrco years, ho was a
handsome kiddie. It waa not jusi
Kent'a nnd my affectionate eyes that
perceived it, but every ono who saw
him agreed heartily.
The boy bad Inherited his father s
dark brown eyes, aud yet his hair waa
n red-gold like mine, it was a sinn
ing combination. And he was aa
sturdy and strong as a boy of fivo
yesra, and quito anperior in intelli
gence so we thought.
Kent Jr. and his father were de
voted. The baby would wait and
watch for Kent at night quite aa eag
erly aa 1 did. I would often find hiiu,
his litllo face pressed close to the
front window, looking out on the
street, and be would look up at ine
inquiringly and say: "Paddy?" with
real longing In his baby voice.
He was alao very fond of all Kent 8
friends, lie soemid much more Inter
ested in men and would go to them
readily without any sign of lear or
shynca. His willingness to make
friends with anions masculine prov
ed to be bolb a danger aud a bleslug.
lie was unusually fond of Tom
limner, and Tom returned his love
and trust ardently. Baby refused to
call Tom by his first name, but in
sisted unon addressing him as "llnr-
nee," with a rising inflection on the
last syllnblc.
He seemed to deem it correct mas
culine style to use the last name
when talking to one of his devoted
pals, We laughed a great deal over
it and even wondered what mails him
elect to address Tom In thst manner.
since even Kent usually called Tom
by bis first name as the rest of us
did. Tom was his devoted slave and
adored his new nick-name. He never
came to the bouse, which was decid
edly often, without bringing some loy
to Kent Jr. 1 declared he would
spoil hi in. but Tom only grinned and
continued the spoiling.
One afternoon in late September.
Nancy asked if I would like to have
her take the baby out for a walk. I
had been sufferiug from a headache
all day and was quite willing to let
her. ' His little piping voice wns not
overly soothing to my aching head,
So I told her to keep him right ou
in front of the house and not to stay
longer than an hour. The days were
beginning to grow shorter aud it was
almost dark by 15 o clock.
Afler she had gone I went to tic
front window and watched for them
to cross the street. I always felt
little nervous of the rushing automo
biles and busses. I sat down in an
easy chair by the window and wat
ed them for a while. My eyes were
divided between the beauties of the
Hudson River and the Jersey shore
beyond, and my motherly interest ii
the boy.
Nancy finally sat down on one of
the benches along the edge of the
park. I suddenly discovered that eh
wns talking to the man w-ho was sit
ting next to her. I did not like her
to do that. And the man's looks di
not appeal to me.
When she came in later I askrd
her about It. ,
"Yes, he is a friend of mine," she
said, grinning foolishly.
"I'lense, Nancy, I iton t wish vou
to entertain company during workin;
hours. 1 give you plenty of lim
off and besides, I don't care to hav
your attention diverted from Kent
for one minute,' I said sternly.
Nancy did not answer me. but I
noticed a decidedly sullen expression I
pass over her face. She did not wait j
to help Kent Jr. take off bis coat and
hat. but flounced out of tbe room and i
hack to the kitchen.
I let the matter drop but 1 did not
like the way she had acted.

There Is snother new ,plnn for

It's a good plan, presumably, but it
is possible to overdo schemes Snd

They need some time in which to
think exactly in their own wsy. It is
the thinking that a boy does on bis
own account and of his own free will
that counts.
