SATURDAY, JUNE, 17, 1922 CHILD LABOR LAWS Difficulties lie in the way of the enactment of laws to protect chil- dren against exploitation in the factories and mines of the nation, but there is a sentiment, growing in ardor, which will overcome those difficulties without ques- tion. The only thing is when. The exploitation of boys and girls of tender years in industry is the result of a greed that is co- lossal in its proportions. It is natural enough that there should be conviction that the only way in which to fight that greed is through measures which affect the pocketbook. Hearts are hard- ened in a measure that makes appeal to them a foolish waste of time. Money talks, and its voice is listened to with attention by men who sit in public office. But pub- lic opinion speaks with an even louder tone and when the great American public reaches the point in its development of conscience where it appreciates the wicked- ness of condemning little children to the lives of the victims of the system of child labor, then that particular abuse of the children of rr lp Ap Ap LOOKING TOWARDS UN- DERSTANDING The spirit of fairness and evi- dence of an open mind on the part of physicians and practitioners in the established schools of medicine seem to be evident in the recent ac- tion of the American Medical Asso- ciation looking towards the impartial investigation of the methods and theories of those groups that advo- cate and practice what they call drugless therapy. It is the wisest and most sensible course that the organized men of the medical pro- fession could follow, for it will take away the claim that is made against them that opposition to the newest methods of healing is based upon ignorance and predu- dice, spiced with a bit of jealousy and fear for the financial well- being of the profession. Physicians of the established schools are already taking much more thought for the mental state of the patient in its effect upon the physical wellbeing. Psychology has no small part in the science of heal- ing as it is practiced today. It will do no harm for the regular prac- titioners to find out from those who use the newer methods just what it is that they rely upon and to become acquainted at first hand with in- stances which are claimed as proof of the principles which they profess. re THE "Y" FOR WOMEN The belief that "woman's place is in the home" has been so long entertained, so accepted as true without any question of its truth that it is difficult to get it into the heads of a careless general public that there are millions of women in the United States who, how- ever glad they might be to take their place in the home, are pre- vented by the fact that they have none in fhich to stay. It is for these millions that the Y. W.C. A. is particularly designed, for these and a vast army of others whose homes provide none of the facilities for amusement that young womanhood ought to have for its best development. Evanston has no branch of the Y. W. C. A. The Girls' 'League has met the need here for home privileges for those whose lives must be lived away from family. But Evanston has none the less its share of obligation to care for the organization which serves the young women of the land as the Y. M. C. A. has served the young men and should be deserving of congratulation upon having met this obligation fully in the "Y" drive for funds. <-> I SHIRKING THE JOB The President is finding it diffi- cult to keep the government func- tioning because of the habit of be- ing somewhere else that is developed too highly in the members of the Congress. Work is all but at a standstill, and matters that are badly needing attention are left to take care of themselves. It is a failure in the discharge of duty that ought to be met by a more severe corrective than the displeasure of the President, for it is inimical to the public good and contrary to READ The Gables' Il Advertisement on the Classified Page the demands of the 'proper dis- charge of their duties. It is hot in Washington at this time of the year, uncomfortable weather for working, but it is that in the greater part of the country and people remain at their posts of duty. A little close attention ap- plied to their work would put Con- gress in a position to expect free- dom from their labors, freedom that has been earned by a performance of the obligation that rests upon them. Under the system of hit or miss absenteeism that is fretting the President, there is little more accomplished than could be done during a recess and nobody enjoys the sense of holiday that ought to be present when there is a cessa- tion of work.
