GHILD LABOR BILL PASSED BY SENATE Tillman Denounces Selfish Inter- ests and Vote Catching Politicians | Washington, Aug. 9.—The senate late vesterday passed the bill to pre- vent interstate commerce in products of child labor. “The vote was & 12. The measure, already pa the house, was brought to a the senate upon the insistence of President Wilson after the democratic senate caucus once had decided to de- fer its consideration until next De- cember. Senators who voted against the bill wer Bankhead of Alabama, Bryan and Fletcher of Florida, Hard- wick and Smith of Georsgia, Ovi nan and Simmons of North Carolina, Smith and Tillman of South Carolina, Willlams of Mississippi (democrats), and Oliver and Penrose of Pen 1- vania (republicans). Senator Borah of Idaho did not offer the amendment he had d n attach- ing the immigration bill as a rider in order to force action on it at this session. Amendments to make the prohibition apply only to children un- | der 14 who could not read nor write, to malke it apply to children on farms | and to postpone its effective date for | two vears were voted down. { The bill as passed would prohibit interstate commerce in the product of aAny mine or quarry in which children | under 16 have been employed or in | | the product of any mill, cannery, workshop, factory or manufacturing establishment in which children under 14 have been emploved, or in which | children between 14 and 16 have heen employed more than eight hours » day more than six davs a week bef: i 6 o'clock in the morning or later than | 7 o'clock in the evening. It would | take effect one year after enactment. During the closing hours of d te vesterday, Senator Tillman denounced southern cotton mill owners oppos- ing the bill and sald that while he believed it unconstitutional he was tempted to support it because of the selfishness of the interests fighting it. He also declared congress was too much influenced by the attitude of labor interests. Servility of present-day vote-seek- i ers to organized labor, he added, pre- sented as great a problem today as did the attitude of politicians twen- ty years ago to concentrated wealth. $180.00 SUITES FOR $152 1 GOLDEN OAK CHIFFEROBE AT . $39 50 .
