(EDITORIAL) HE Federated Industries of Washington has opened a fight on the ratification of the federal child la- bor amendment by the state legislature. It comes up at Olympia this term. It is natural that these gentlemen—the larg ployers of labor in the state—should view the med primarily from the,standpoint of men who sign the tory payroll check ks. They wouldn’t be good business men if they didn’t em- ure ace UT you and I, as parents, have no call to look upon the child labor Fnectitmnbtit as a cold, dollars and cents proposition. To us it means, in many cases, the whole future of our son and our daughter. We want,to give our boys and gur girls the best chance possible of fitting them- , selves for the stiffening competition of life. Nothing will aid more than a strictly enforced federal child la- bor law, away from all manipulation. UR state law is all right. Why bother with ratifi- sation?” asks the employers. There’s the rub! s fourths states ratify, the national amendment loses. It is up to the Washington legislature to indorse the measure to safeguard the 878,063 boys and girls, from 10 to 14, who now are toiling in industry in states that are not as humanitarian as ours.
