WORKING CHILDREN
The organizations that are back­
ing the child-labor law, and trying to
get an amendment to the constitution
giving congress power to regulate it
and to control the employment of
children up to the age of 18 years are
moving heaven and earth to accomp­
lish their ends. Already 38 states
have laws regulating child-labor and
fixing the hours of employment.
These state laws provide for protect­
ing child labor from certain danger­
ous occupations. No one advocates or
wants to make a law forbidding boys
and girls to work for wages before
they are 18 either on the farm or in
any other suitable place. No state has
yet passed such a law, but it is an
open question whether the people
should give congress any jurisdiction
over this matter and law the founda-
tion for an army of federal employ­
es to interfere with our children.
We believe the average Vernonia
resident feols that he is already being
assessed a sufficient sum to operate
the government. We don’t believe
anyone, in this community at least,
is anxious to have additional taxes
added just to support another bureau
at Washington that would provide sev
eral thousand fat jobs and accomplish
nothing more than is now being ac­
complished by state laws. And if oth­
er communities view it in the same
light this talk about a child-labor a-
mendment to the constitution might
as well cense now.
