LAUDS VALUE OF CHILD LABOR LAW
Child I^twr legislation proposed by Governor Oeorge H. Earle, which would prevent employment of boys and (fh'Ls under sixteen vears of age. would have little effect upon I the cnrollmiMit in Penn.sylvania I public schools under exi.sting condi-1 tions, according to Dr. James N. Rule, Stiperint^'ndenl of I'ublic In-' -truction. He .says the Governor's proixisal is an outstanding contri¬ bution to social legi-,lation and de- .serve.N the .Niippori of .ill .school p. o- ple .Tiicj friends of education. The prinripal off'-ct on schools prolriibly would Ix- a slightly greater demand on c.xi.sting high .school facilities.
Fewer llian 400 general employ¬ ment certllicales were l.ssiud for pupils under sixteen years of age during the last school year. Of this number few more than 200 still were being used at the end of the year This represents a great drop from 1933 when NRA regulations became efTective barring children under sixteen from industrial employment. In that year approxi¬ mately 14.000 boys and girls between 14 and 16 years of age dropped out of part time or continuation schools and enrolled as full time pupils in regular classes. Slnoe IMI the continuation school enrollment has dropped from 31,S00 pupils In 93 dUtricU to 1300 in 23 districts this year.
Pour years ago more than 13,000 pupils under sixteen years of age obtained general employment cer¬ tificates In order to go to work. Within two years this number had been cut in half, or to few more ' than 6000, Last year only 935 ob- [ tained such certificates In the en¬ tire State. This indicates that rela¬ tively few pupils under sixteen years of age are out of school who would be ab.sorbed by the schools if the proposed child labor legisla¬ tion is approved.
Children from 16 to 18 years of age would be required to obtain employment oertlfleates In order to work, including those who complete high school within these aw lim¬ its. Some of those within the 16-ia age limits who have been graduated from high scliool would return for post graduate study If unable to find employment. Department ofH- clals believe.

It was 1.004.-266. including 30,- 677 who have more than on<; com¬ mission as leaders in Scouting or in Cubbing, or a net membership of 973,589. Tills is an increa.se of 7.7 percent over the record for the pre- ceedlng year. During the year, 1931 1,048.811 difTerent boys or an in¬ crease of 4.6 percent were enrolled in aome relationship to the Boy Scouts of America, and 273,008 dif¬ ferent men. or a grand total of 1,- 323,819 difTerent individuals. Since 1910, 6,330.330 different men and boys have been definitely registered in some relation to the Boy Scouts at America. Although the registra¬ tion of Cubs was not inaugurated until 1930. there have been 113,123 different persons registered as Cubs or Cut>bers,
An important factor of scouting pertaining to the welfare of any nation can easily be explained in the few words following: Eighty- five percent of every arrest made in the United States during the past year was mad,, on young people under twenty-four No nation can ,staiid up under that You may de¬ velop a teclinlque of government that will be .so perfect tliat you can eliminate poverty. You may develop an administration of business and Industry that will be so perfect that a depression will never be another possibility, but wliat is the oldest verdict of history? The oldest ver¬ dict of history is that it is not «-ealth, and it Is not business, and it is not dollars, and It Is not rall- i'oads_ and It Is not banks. It Is not factori«'s that makp a nation great, taut it Is CHARACTER, and one thing that American conservation does l.s to guard against moral bank¬ ruptcy. The congested areas of our cities today have beconie festering sores and cancers of immorality and di-eay that Is rotting out tli«> heart ,iiid life, becau.se of It, if we [X'rinit the out-of-doors to go, the recreational character of an unpol¬ luted and uncoiitainiiiated out-of- (l<»irs will bo Iosl as a \ital iiifluenc In pre.-eninc our nation and our IX'ople.

H Edgur Barnesj S'cretary of Revenue, today ,said Hishway Pa¬ trolmen are lo be the shc»ck troops of Pennsylvania's crusade agauis'L highwa.v   accidciiis   and   deaths.
'With the new einpha.'>i.s on high¬ way safety, the Highway Pairo! is going to play an increasingly prominent part m accident reduc¬ tion,"  Secretary  Barne.'s   explained
"The best way lo reduce acci¬ dents is to prevent them. That u what the patrolmen have ord-jrs to do During the months to come they will opK'rale with the principal ob¬ jective of making P'-nnsy Ivania ex- ce»'dlngly unpopular witii reckles> drivers. I want to see the day when this Commonwealth will have an enviable reputation for enforcing the safety provi.sions of Its molor code When that time comes, resi¬ dent and vi.siting motorists will be able to drive from taordor to border witliout   fear   of   death   or   injury.
"Careful driver.s have nothina ta fear from the vigorou- law enff^rc';- ment drive which already is under way Th*' Patrol is out to get th? ciHMl-may-care accident — breeder who  can't   bo  reached    any    othe'-
way.    In dealing witii him. the Pa¬ trol will employ the only tact.cs thi. t.vpe of person seems able to under¬ stand—arrest, prosecution, fines and; jail ]

"Law-abiding niit'iij.;^ wil! ftn:i the Hi3hwav Patrolmen a Irr ndl' guardian, e£Qcieui and eager to help in limes of emergency. The driv.'i guilty of minor, technical violation- of the law or of temporary lap^e- in good .judgment u.sually wil; en¬ counter a politely firm adviser.
'Warnings will continue to    hav':- a place  in the patrolmeir., code bu. | they  will  not   be  given   where    cir- i canistances clearlv  demand an  ar-1 rest     At the pre.s*.'nt. the Patrol av¬ erage   about   nine   warninRs   to   one, arrest      Last   year    412,237     drivers were   warr>e(i  and   47,197   were   ar¬ rested     But   while  the   number of arrests  increa«d 35  oer  cent   from 1933,     the    number    of    warnings gained only II per cent. In tli« face of   the   years   mounting   accidents and deaths, the  Patrol  struck    out with   more    arrests    and   relatively fewer  warnmgs
"This pha.se of the Patrols re¬ cord for 1935 IS m the hands of mo¬ torists, themselves, They can com¬ ply with the law voluntarily or. bv clinging to dangerous driving hab¬ its, they can compel patrolmen to establish new records for arrests The Patrol has strict orders to see that the law i.s enforced and will be governed by the condition^ found   on   th'  highways
"Pennsylvania must have saf- highways and i.s going to get them by tlio surest and most direct meth¬ ods  possible "
