While the law was founded on the clause of the constitution which simply gives congress the right to regulate in- terstate commerce, the government conceded in court that its real purpose was not to control commerce, control industrial conditions within sates. Attorneys attacking the valid- ity of the measure founded thefr argu- ment chiefly upon that. The effect of the law they continued, was to enforce within the borders of certain states a social policy which hese states had re- peatedly refused to adopt into law themselves. Congress, they contended, ! had no right to legislate for unwilling states by use of the interstate com- merce clause of the constitution. Similar attempts to accomplish an end through the commerce controlling power had been nullified by the court, they contended. The government's that the interstate commerce clause had been so construed by the court that congress was more than justified in using it to forbid child labor. De- cisions of the court sustaining food and drugs inspection acts, and legi lation to restrict shipment of intoxi- cants were cited as instances of the similar use of the power. The right to interfere with the police powers of states under the clause, if congre: had good reason for the interferenc: was said to have been established sufficiently before the court to make it certain that the ban on the products of child labor was constitutional, even though the North Carolina court de- clared that it was not. argument was JIM THORPE AGAIN AFTER REGULAR JOB iels states that the Navy department | is taking the necessar ard shipping along the coast.
