BUCH A jLAW NECESSABT.'
So t as tha constitutionality of the child labor law is
concerned, wo are attll in the dark. Five Justices of the
Unitod States Supremo Court hold it Invalid while four
aay it is all right It may or n may not be. Tha ma
jority rules, however, and tho law is officially dead for
the present.
We do know that tha purpose of the law was to protect
children of tender years from being overworked and
stunted ia the mills and factoriea of the country. We do
kmw that each a law is necessary to aave the children
from parents who would deprive them of thein rightful
opportunities to grow and develop and get educations for
tha sake of the few paltry dollars that they earn in the
aweat-shop, We do know that such a law is necessary
to keep some, at least, of the mill operators and other
child kbor employers from yielding to the Impulse to
cut down 'operating costs at the expense of the children.
There are many parent who need no such law and
there are maqy employers" with hearts that need no such
restrictions. Tha few, though they may be, who fail to
appreciate 'the child's rights justify tha lnw and neces
sitate It. .

A WAT TO FIGHT VAGRANCY.
Tha housekeepers of the South are more or less re
sponsible for the vagrancy problem because of their tol
eranco of the "toting" custom of their domestics. One
of the most effective means in forcing idlers out of their
lain and intj the fields and ahopa unquestionably would
be to cut off their bread supply which is carried in such
copious quantities daily by the cooks and house servants
who are permitted to take away from the kitchins all
that they can easily carry. Some of those servants have
little children at home ami it is perhaps with the know
ledge and consent of the housekeeper that they get the
"leavings" for the children. On the other hand a great
many of them have no legitimate families and are but
maintaining illicit establishments and making it possible
for some strong, lazy rasrul to dodge work.
The Free Press touched on this matter a year or two
ago and at that time understood that one of the colored
pastors of the City spoke of the matter from his purpi
and condemned the custom. The housekeepers are to
blame for allowing their servants to take anything from
their kitchens except that which they might give them
It would involve some trouble of course to keep a closer
cheirk on the pantry and perhaips many housewives pre
fer to lose the food stuffs that is doubtful, however, if
they but knew what quantities they lost rather than
have added care. By so doing they would not only help
the food supply but they can almost in every case drive
a vagrant, Who is being fed from their tuples, out into
the open where ho will have to work or go to jail.
If the housekeepers of Kinston would get together on
this matter, the co-operation of th leaders among the
colored people could be secured, The Free Press bolieves,
and certainly the city authorities would enact any neces
sary legislation that would help enforce an anti-tating
rule.
GFRMANY PLAYING TO GALLERIES.
Of course Germany's diapwtch of submersibles to this
side of the Atlantic is but another grand stand play in
tended to cany surprise and terror rather than accom
plish any end of much military importance.
Germany reckons unwisely. The American people are
in the fight not to bluff or to be bluffed but to win. They
know that when the work of the U4oat is being nullified
by degrees within the sight almost of their bases on the
other side of the Atlantic, that little is to be feared on
this side. -"
There is one precaution that America must take and
that is to guard against surprises of the sort more care-r
fully to prevent any serious damag being done. The
fact that some of the survivors of the ships that have
been struck down on tihis side of the Atlantic caim that
their ships wore attacked and sunk ten or eleven days
ago does not speak any too well for the patrol off the
Atlantic coast. No chances should be taken. The Free
rress is graimeu mat secretary uaniele can give assur
ance that there is ample reserve in his department to
give all necessary patrol and' protect our shores. The
country would have cause for alarm if such was not tha
case.
Germany is playing to the galleries hut it is up to us
to see to it that her performances are not successful
