The Child Against the Man,
Does child labor create pover- ,|
ty? Dr. A. J. McKelway. of j I
Virginia, discusses this question !
in the last Child Labor bulletin, o
and concludes that child labor
reduces the wages of adults He ■
11
cites figures concerning the
wages of 32,109 operatives in I
l '
southern cotton mills, and says|
‘the wages of the adult are,,
measured by the wages that will
satisfy the child-worker or his,,
parents. The manufacturer l>e-ii
ieves in ‘equal pay for equal |i
work,’ and it is a very profitable i
loctrine in keeping down the j
wage scale.” j
The article was called forth (
oy certain statements made by j
Vlr. George F. Stratton in the j
‘Outlook” of September 20th |
concerning the indifference of j
child labor reforms to the pover- |
y of parents. Dr. McKelway |
lelieves that if a million chil- I
Iren under sixteen could be tak- I
in out of industry in the Fnited
states it would lead to an in-;
crease in the wages of adults. [
‘This is so clearly recognized by
the employers of labor that it is j
difficult to find any of the 'com- i
mercial organs’ that is not in- j
stinctively opposed to child la
bor reform on the ground that
it ‘hurts business.’
As positive evidence of the
good results of restricting child
labor, Dr. McKelway quotes a
statement made by Mr Hugh
Frayne, of the Federation of La
bor and formerly of the Penn
sylvania Labor Department, con
tci 11111^; intr nine v-imi; isiv,rvni£,
out slate in a coal breaker, help
ing a father who sorely needs
help.” Mr. Frayne says: "One
of the objections made to rais
ing the age limit of boys in the
coal mines of Pennsylvania sev
eral years ago, was the cry that
parents needed the help that
came from the earnings of the
boys, but the laws were adopted
just the same. Today the con
dition of the average miner’s
family is far better than former
ly when the youngsters worked
as soon as they were large
enough to hold their seats on the
breakers and pick out the lumps
of slate. The objections that
came from the parents have been
silenced forever.”—Fort Smith

WHY IT SUCCEEDS.
Because It’s For One Thing Only
Newport People Appre
ciate This.
Nothing can be good for every
thing.
Doing one thing well brings
success.
Doan’s Kidney Pills are for one
thing only.
For weak or disordered kid
neys.
Here is reliable evidence of
their worth.
Mrs. B- F. Owens, Magness,
Arkansas, says: “One of our
family complained a great deal
of a dull pain in the small of the
back. Dizzy spells were common
especially in the morning. The
kidney secretions were too un
natural. Hearing Doan’s Kid
ney Pills highly recommended, a
box was procured. They made a
cure.”
Price, 50c, at all dealers. Don’t
simply ask for a kidney remedy
—get Doan’s Kidney Pills— the
same that Mrs. Owens had. Fos
