SOLID FRONT IS,' FACED BY CHILD LABORMEASURE Wisconsin Only State in Middle West Likely to Accept, Bv United Pres* CHICAGO, Jan. 30. —State Legislatures of the Middle West and Northwest present practically a solid front against the proposed Federal child labor amendment. In only one State, Wisconsin, do supporters of the measure feel they have a fair uhance for victory. Ohio and South Dakota have already defeated the measure. The North Dakota Senate defeated it, but the House is to still take action. Illinois, lowa, Nebraska, Indiana, Minnesota and Wisconsin have not •yet taken action. Farmers and manufacturers have combined against the proposal on the ground that it endangers their stability and is an invasion of State rights. Women’s organization, labor unions and certain classes of small merchants are arrayed on the side off the measure. The Padney resolution ratifying the amendment was recommended for passage today by the Wisconsin State Senate committee on agriculture, labor and industries. Passage Likely Next week the resolution comes before the Senate and its passage is believed certain. It may run up against a snag in the House and a compromise may be made by shelving the measure for a State referendum on the question. Strong opposition to ratification is known to exist in both Houses of the Indiana Legislature, though proponents of the measure won a temporary victory when they forced its consideration by the Senate Committee on Federal Relations. Michigan may not take action on the measure until April and present indications are it will be defeated. Opponents declare the existing State child labor amendment is sufficient. When the West Virginia Legislature reconvenes on March 18 it will be asked to vote on a resolution voicing opposition to the proposed amendment. Political leaders say the resolution will be adopted. Judge George W. McClintock of the Federal District Court of southera West Virginia, in a hcarge to a special grand jury, denounced the child labor amendment, declaring the evil of child idleness is greater than heild labor. He asked that the Legislature adopt a resolution opposing the measure. Illinois Opposed Indications are that the Illinois Legislature will vote overwhelming against ratification. The manufacturers’ associations and the powerful farm bureaus exert enough power to force a crushing defeat, it is conceded. There are sixty-seven farmer members of the House in lowa, and

Representative Sarah Muir of the Nebraska Legislature, leader in the fight for the measure admitted its defeat at the present session. "Big interests started spreading their anti-amendment propaganda while most of us favoring the measure were still sleeping,” she said. “We’ll get licked now, but we’ll put up a fight—and eventually our time is coming.” In Minnesota opponents of the measure say it will not come before the Legislature. Hearings were scheduled for next week, £ut they may be indefinitely postponed. BIRTHDAY IN JAIL Blackjack in Pocket Ruins Hopes of Celebration.
