IAn auto tourlDt party from Itod
dhiK. California, constating of Mr. and
IDs. V. Wilder, MIhscs Nora und De
lia Wider, R. .lonca, lira. E. Whalcn,
returned to tho city lant nli;lit from
Crater Lake. They camo to Mcdford
from Redding for the cxpross purpose
of seeing tho lako, no matter how
much snow they would havo to bur
row or wado thru.
However, they were fortunate In
encountering llttlo trouhlo In reach
ing the lake. Thoy wero able to drive
their cars to within two miles of the
lako on the Mcdford l(lo, and from
there walked to tho rim.
Thoro wore Homo drifts ten feet
ilcop thru which thoy had to pass, but
luckily the night befuro another party
of tourists, thinking to bo tho first
ones to get to sco tho lake, had shov
eled a path thru them.
Tho lioddlng party, who left for
homo this noon, report that on the
oast sido cars can ho driven on tho
Sandy Creek road almost to tho rim.
TPHIK world war into winch wo have entered to make
A tlir -world safe for ileinocl'aev must, not he allowed to
destroy any of the safeguards we have by slow, painful
steps erected for the cause of democracy.
Aside f I'oin the strain and stress of battle, danger lurks
in every war. The unsleeping forces of greed and selfish
ness are always on watch to regain lost ground.
Much has been said and rightly so as to how this coun
try can profit from the experience of those other great
democracies Kngland and France. Our allies can teach
lis much about warfare in the trenches and on the seas.
They can also give us much guidance concerning matters
at home.
And one of the lessons the allies can teach us is that we
must not throw our children into the furnace of war.
There must be no wholesale suspension of restrictions of
Tiic hours children are permitted to labor. There must be
no iet-up ii child welfare work. There must be no pa
ralysis of school systems.
At the beginning of the war, in England and France, in
the frantic endeavor to increase the industrial output nec
essary lor carrying on the struct; !!, children were thrmim
iiu.o i no lactones as it they were so much fuel fm n t'ivn
The cry was that everyone, oven the children, must do their
oi t.
And then came the aftermath. Young girls and boys
quickly showed the physical strain of long hours of con
finement in the factories, whether doing day work or nioht
work. Education was being neglected. Morals were be
ing ai lectefl.
England and France were fighting to make the liberties
of the next generations secure and, while doing so, were
denying those very generations the chance to grow up
strong in body,, educated in mind and clean in svn'rit. Tho
result was there had to be a speedy returnto restriction of
i i i ( 1 11 ' , .
Kiuur, iu ciiiorcemont, or senooi jaws and to all sate
guards necessary for child life. 1
The danger England and France faced and speedily
tooic steps to overcome, is Jaeimr us now. Aln.n.u- in
highly industrialized states like New Jersey, Pennsylva
nia, and New York there have been "defense-" proposals to
suspend or repeal child labor laws which were put upon
the statute books only after the bitterest fight with special
interests. If not promptly checked, the move will spread.
There is no excuse for enslaving the weak bodies of
growing children.
Jt would be nothing less than suicide for the United
States to risk the flower of her manhood in the trenches
of blood-soaked France, while at home we were subjecting
our future men and women to a killinn- blirhf. rlinf' wm,U
break down their bodies, blunt their minds and abate their
morals.
