WAR MENACES CHILD LABOR LAW CHANGES Amendment of Article Ten Will Start Fight. SENATE DIVIDED State Rights Invaded Is Charge by Opponents. WASHINGTON, May 20.—The proposed amendment to Article X of the American Constitution threatens to precipitate one of the bitterest sectional fights In the history of the Senate. It was North against South and East against West In anew fight over lasic principles of government as implied by the proposed amendment of Senator Hiram W. Johnson. Hepullican of California. for prohibiting exploitation of child labor. Johnson warmly defended the legislation as necessary to protect children. He charged It was the duty of national government to “slightly invade State rights,” when the Issue of child welfare was raised. Bitter condemnation came from Senator Lee S. Overman, Democrat of North Carolina, who branded the proposed amendment as “clear attempt to wipe out State lines." From the opposing faction It was contended that the Johnson amendment Wonld open the door to scores of similar amendments which ultimately would establish a paternalistic superstructure of Federal government. It was pointed out that similar provision could be added to the Johnson amendment which would give Congress authority to legislate antilynching laws, to Invade State rights on public educational measures and finally to usurp police powers of the various 'States.

WATCHMAN IN FATAL DUEL AT WHISKY PLANT William Roudebush, Guarding 75 Barrels of Booze, Shot by Thieves. VINCENNES, Ind., May 2C.—Whisky thieves shot and killed Wilson S, Roudebush, watchman at the Murphy distillery, shortly after midnight. More than twenty shots were exchanged by the thieves and Roudebush. The watchman emptied his weapon at the men who attempted unsuccessfully to steal the seventy-five barrels of liquor, stored on the premises. Roudebush was shot through the heart. It Is believed five strange men, seen In the vicinity of the distillery Friday afternoon, planned the theft of the whisky, and were de.ected by the watchman. The police have been promised the assistance of Federal agents in an effort to apprehend the murderers. A son of the dead man, Jesse A. Roudebusb, who also is a watchman, at the Knox distillery, heard the shots and gave the authorities the first report of the crime. Two weeks ago night time prowlers were frightened from the distilery by the watchmen. It was believed they had come to steal the whisky, the location of which was generally known.

Highways and By-Ways of Lil’ Or New York ! B y RAYMOND CARR OL L l (Copyright. 1922. by Pnblls Lodger Company.) —————

NEW YORK, May 20—Twenty million people a day see the movies. Possibly , 1,000,000, I do not know, may be mothers, j In “Silver Wings," which had Us premiere | last night in this city, there is a worth- : while lesson for those mothers who have \ more than one offspring. It shows In gripping, wholesome fashion the evil that comes of playing favorites among the members of a family and the heartaches of the neglected, also the nobility of the less handsome of two boys and the verity of that old homily, “handsome is as handsome does.” If ever there was a picture made to the needs ot the moment In moviedom, "Silver Wings” qualifies. It is a “Will H. Hays picture” in the fullest sense, although It was turned out by William Fox, with Mary Carr (herself the mother of six children in every day life* as tho star. It is the cleanest, finest picture I have ever seen, and the good it is bound to work in American homes is incalculable, and this indorsement la from an “only son.” Only a few days ago I was talking with Will 11. Hays, the head of the newly formed association of motion picture producers, and he said: “the manhood and womanhood of America do not require the wrong thing in thier amusement. I think the time ia especially ripe now for a drive in the right direction. I know the outstanding financial snetesses In the spoken drama have been clean plays. In any event, clean moving pictures we are going to have and we have got to have. Now. I do not underestimate the responsibility. We have got to face that responsibility.” And the first picture out that measures l up to that responsibility la “Silver ' Wings.” liats off to Mr Fox and our i congratulations to Will H. Hays. I.aura Robertson is an American girl. ; She is a home-made dramutie soprano, ! fur she has never been abroad. Her birth ! town is Mexico, Mo., and her father, the late George Robertson, was a distiu guished Missouri lawyer, president of \ the State Bar As-oclution. She is tall, i with reddish brown hair and brown eyes j ami really beautiful. Three years ago she married Mai Franklin L. Miller, who commanded B Battery of the 3-ilst Field Artillery in the Argonne-Meuse attack. They have a baby boy 21 months old and live in an apartment on Riverside drive. When the Millers came to New York they heard a great deul of tho "influence’’ supposed to be required for a singer to get into Use Metropolitan Opera Company After sifting down what they were told they decided to disregard every thing nnd for Mrs. Miller to go about getting an engagement to sing In the same manner as apply for any old job, namely, show General Director GattiCasazea of the Metropolitan what she could do with her voice. Mrs. Miller w.thlu tho last year has sung at about a dozen concerts outside of New York, appearing on the same program with Marrinelli and Amuta, both Metropolitan artists. In fact, her first public appearance was in March, 1921, at New Britain, Conn., with Martinelli, and her music teacher is Salvatore iueito, author of the book ‘•Caruso and Ills Art,” who had previously coached Caruso and is now roach for Martinelli. At Mrs. Miller’s request Martinelli, the tenor, asked Gattl Cusnzza to give the American girl an audition, which means set a time to hear her slug. This came . about a few weeks ago, Mrs. Miller singing two arias. She was asked to come | back again, when she wua given a role in , a German opera, told to get up on it in ; three days, and return again. She did so, : singing it for one of the directors of i German operas. Next day she signed a i contract for three years, and she is now engaged in perfecting herself for the fall season in sixteen roles, parts assigned to her in five German, eight Italian and i three French operns. The point of her experience is that If one 'Tins the goods” there Is no necessity ■ for a “pull” to get a chance with GattiI Casazza, and those who have heard Mrs. ' Miller sing say she gives promise of j being one of the greatest dramatic sopra- | nos in tbo world. “Y'ou nnd I may live to see flying liners taking passengers across the Atlantic and making the crossing in a single day," declared P. A. S. Franklin, president of the International Mercantile Marine Company, afrer a luncheon given on board the Majestic of the White Star Line, the world's largest ship. Ho added: “Until that time comes, and perhaps afterward, ships like this will represent the best in ocean travel. However, huge Uuers of i 1

this sort, must be delayed at least one year. Great headlines in very bold-faced type brought the tear* In Denver. “Valentino may be charged with bigamy," they read. However, there were smiles and sighs a-plenty. ‘'Each town a wire was received and sent by the beautiful young bride. No sooner had she sealed one disnatch when the query came, “When may I again?" Her wires burned with Intense affection, and always came the trite postscript, "Your bambino." “I'll never give him up, never! Soon I’ll be back in Hollywood,” was the reported statement. She has one traveling companion, a tiny Pekinese dog. He is her sole confidante.—Copyright, 1922, In--1 ternatlonal News Service.

Vauclain, president of the Baldwin Locomotive Works, speaking today at the annual meeting of tne American relish Chamber of Commerce, held at the Bankers Club, said in part; "Fortunately for Europe, and X mean western Europe, there has been created a buffer state—Poland. Have you been asleep to the lmportanco of this new nation, created by war, given a liberty that has becu coveted and sought after by them for more than a century? Shall It be protected, supported and taado invulnerable? Surely it must be couSbdcd that with bolshevlst Russia on the east and a Jealous and avaricious Germany on tho west, Poland Is In a very serious, If not precarious, position. But grieve not, my friends, members and those who have been invited to this meeting, Poland Is safe. “Now, why is Poland safe? She is a new nation with untried men In command. Men unskilled in statecraft and so on. Mourn not, because Poland's people are a great people, and their lack of knowledge of the intrigue and deception of the old government of Europe is their greatest asset. Their loyalty to each other and their loyalty to their new couiTtry will enable them In a few years to place Poland In the front rank of na tions. As an American who lores not only his own couniry nnd its peoples above all others, but wbo has an affection for the peoples of other countries, I take delight in attesting to the honesty of purpose and to the great aflicleney of tho leaders; also to the sublime support of the proletariat to the future groat ties sos Poland. "Poland today Is the bulwark of civilization, not only in Europe, but in the entire world. All nations desiring a continuance of life, liberty and love should make It Impossible to squeeze this nation into a nonentity. \V ecHii depend upon the Polish nation to shed every drop of Its blood before submitting again to the absorption or domination by an adjacent Slate. My analysis of the future Impels mo to give uiy effort throughout my remaining years to eir abliihfng permanently this bulwark, and with the knowledge of the Polish people 1 have acquired by actual contact and business relations with them I assure you no fears need bo entertained us to tho ultimate outcome." Mr. Vauclain in conclusion gave it as his opinion that Americans, independent of their national Government, as business men, should so identify themselves with the controlling industries of Poland that the United Slates, in conjunction with France, may place such safeguards about Poland as will forever assure the world not only a maximum of commercial Intercourse, but the rehabilitation of Russia and the peace of the world—a continuance of the present civilization, its further development and tho everlasting Joy of a job well done.

parts. The leaders of the nation’s key Industry brought him chapter and verse evidence that the tide has turned and Is now in full flow In the right direction. Barring unforeseen developments and arbitrary tariff blows at the import trade, the President sees a business revival of irresistible and incalculable dimensions. For the first time In many months, the President now is informed, that infallible barometer of better times is visible—a shortage of common labor. Virtually all localities and all branches of Industry aro thus affected. The business of the soup kitchens is about the only one that is falling off. Applicants for aid nnd registrations for unemployment funds are lessening. There is a development of even healthier character—a resumption of eagerness for work. The steel men told President Harding that where men aro now working on the eighteen-hour shift plan, common labor is systematically seeking an opportunity to do twelve hour Id preference to six-hour stretches. Indeed, the difficulty of abolishing the twelve-hour scale is due mainly to the reluctance of working men to abandon it in favor of a shorter day. Wbnt tho White House hears of resumed prosperity 1n tho steel trade is characteristic of reports from many other industries. The Detroit automobile trade, as an important example, is described as being back, or almost back, to boom times. Throbbing Chicago, with its dozen* of diversified industries, is said to have taken on an entirely new industrial aspect, compared to conditions thnt prevail'd at the beginning of the year. From bis own busy State of Ohio the President gets bulletins no less rosy. Everything he can learn Induces President Harding to believe the industrial revival is real deep seated or lastingquality. It Is an open secret the I'resl dent fears unscientific tinkering with the tariff. That Is one of the things catalogued at the White House as among the unexpected events tluu may arrest a trend otherwise not to be impeded. Not only In the manufacturing and merchandising branches is business on the march, according to the President’s Information, but farming conditions are on the upgrade, too. Such complaints ns now are heard from the agricultural districts concern almost exclusively the Stock growing branch That great k--} trade of the Far West has not yet recovered. Its difficulties arc those ol finance, and the banks are tackling them with all possible vigor. Tho industry of grain raising Is described as pretty well rehabilitated. It Is conceded that the business new* which la bi decidedly “bullish” tendency t* bringing welcome comfort to Republican party leaders. The stare of tho times was ever a factor of dominating influence in election years. The President and his political confrerees are understood. therefore, to be deriving deep satisfaction from the strides which tho ha -k to normalcy movement is making. The pace will lie crescendo, they feol, between now and tho time of tho congressional election*. The net results, it is hoped, may bo such that tho country will be prepared to forget the shortcomings of a Republican Congress and engrossed in a prosperity re born under a Republican national administration, vote accordingly. Samuel Gontper*, president of the American Federation of attempted to pour cold water on whnt President Harding described ns his “harmonious and progressively sociological discussion” with the steel men. “Judge Gray says ‘that all favored the abolition of tho twelve-hour day, if and when practicable,’ a statement which means absolutely nothing.” said Mr. Gompors. GOMPERS UNABLE TO BEE ANY PROGRESS. “If the White House conference was called to discuss the twelve-hour day I am unable to sis* where any progress wua made. We may take tho conference as being something of an Indication of the public condemnation of steel trust practices, but it is difficult to see any sincerity iu the 'if and when practicable’ formula. “The production of steel can and must be placed on a basis where it affords an American standard of living with an American work day of eight hours. The steel trpst has a reserve fund of $500,000,1)00 in undivided surplus, which indicates its profit-making'powers. ■“The meaning of Judge Gary's statement Is that the steel industry Intends to abolish the inhuman twelve-hour workday when It gets ready and not before. “It is typical of the present day colossal effrontery of big business that it should use tho White House itself us a rostrum from which to give to the country its latest example of cynical decep-tion.’’--Copyright, 1922, by Public Ledger Company.

The French premier let it be known that in his opinion that view does not hold good in case Germany commlta a default of payment. Poincare insists that the treaty of Versailles permits separate action by any of the allies concerned In case Germany makes a voluntary default.
