1940 SOUND-OFF— HARRISBURG, Pennsylvania—To newspapermen Pennsylvania's pro Labor Governor George Howard Earle III last week read a statement: "I've got a lot of work to do here in Pennsylvania and I'm getting weary of these questions about my candidacy in 1940. I want my position definitely understood. "There are many leaders of intelligence and honesty in the Democratic party. There are, however, no men in the Democratic party or any other party who reach knee-high in stature, mentally and morally, to Franklin Roosevelt. Between the third term precedent and the welfare of the country, can any patriotic citizen hesitate as to which course he will take? "I am for Franklin Roosevelt or President in 1940, unqualifiedly and finally. "I have never discussed this matter with the president, and this statement is made without his permission." Thus came the first real 1940 presidential news. Not only as an ardent but as a potent New Dealer, Governor Earle's announcement was significant. While many people think that either Franklin D. Roosevelt or John L. Lewis wants to run for president in 1940, others think they don't. But there is no difference of opinion about Governor Earle who, observers agree, would dearly love the Democratic nomination in 1940. Remarked Senator Wheeler ironically: "Governor Earle reminds me of John Alden. Why don't you speak for yourself, Governor?" In the largest sense Governor Earle was doing nothing else, and he had four good reasons for his announcement besides getting off had been ratified by only six states prior to the election of Franklin D. Roosevelt in 1932. Then, with the president as its big champion, 22 more states ratified during the next four years. But with eight ratifications still required before it becomes part of the constitution, the 1924 child labor amendment came to a standstill. Stealing a march on the New Deal, Michigan's Senator Arthur Hendrick Vandenberg therefore drafted a new child labor amendment which the senate judiciary committee last week not only endorsed unanimously but believed could be speedily ratified. After finding out the objections to those opposed to the 1924 proposal, which read: "The congress shall have power to limit, regulate and prohibit the labor of persons under 18 years of age," Senator Vandenberg edited the text to read: "The congress shall have power to limit and prohibit the employment for hire of persons under 16 years of age." Thus were eliminated the words "regulate," which was too elastic and led people to fear it might be stretched to mean anything a future administration might wish, and "labor," which the Catholic church might be stretched to include jurisdiction over pupils in its parochial schools. "Employment for hire" was substituted to outlaw most of the worst forms of child labor without alarming farmers who expect their children to do chores on the farm. Finally Senator Vandenberg lowered the age limit two years to answer the objection of those who maintained that boys and girls of 16 and 17 were really not children. The judiciary committee approved all this and added a fourth change: a provision requiring the states to pass upon Albany, Saragotta Springs, Mirror Lake and West Point. For their next taxi odyssey the Smiths paid a 25c-a-mile rate and Carnaggio's hotel expenses, put up $1,000 bond to permit the cab to enter Canada, followed Carnaggio's suggestion to detour and see the Dionne quintuplets. A week later Carnaggio put them on the liner "Berengaria" and Smith peeled off $625 plus a bottle of Mischief perfume, which he manufactures. On the trip the Smiths lost a Voigtlander camera and; to show his thanks, Driver Carnaggio bought a new one for $30, mailed it to England. Then he headed back to Washington, where he cashed in once more by charging news-photographers to take his picture. Said he for nothing: "They had one of the best times an Englishman ever had in America. They're coming back in a couple of months with their son and daughter. I'm going to take them to Yellowstone and all out west on that trip." MILLIONS FOR CANCER— NEW HAVEN, Connecticut—"My mother died of cancer and my father has never forgotten it. He has always wanted to do something about it. He has established the fund together with another person, who prefers to remain anonymous, as his contribution to the fight against the disease. The fund is created primarily to inquire into the causes of cancer rather than into its cure." Thus last week spoke Starling W. Childs, Jr., in explanation of his father's $10,000,000 donation to Yale University for the establishment of a Jane Coffin Childs Memorial fund, announced by Yale President James Rowland Angell at a vast alumni luncheon in New Haven last week. Advisers of the Childs fund will be: Yale's Medicine Dean Stanhope Bayne-Jones, a bacteriologist and Rockefeller Foundation protege; his predecessor as dean, ``` wants to run for president in 1940, others think they don't. But there is no difference of opinion about Governor Earle who, observers agree, would dearly love the Democratic nomination in 1940. Remarked Senator Wheeler ironically: "Governor Earle reminds me of John Alden. Why don’t you speak for yourself, Governor?" In the largest sense Governor Earle was doing nothing else, and he had four good reasons for his announcement besides getting off an immediate political hot spot: it is a rule of politics that any man who wants to be president must deny that he does; as matters now stand, if any candidate has to take the nomination away from Franklin Roosevelt in 1940, he would be a fool to do so—if he could—for he would not have a chance of election with Roosevelt nursing a grudge against him; since Franklin Roosevelt has already indicated that he will not be a candidate there is no one safer for another candidate to stump for; and by speaking up, Governor Earle got himself the early publicity every candidate most needs. Finally, though a third-term campaign might wreck Franklin Roosevelt if he pressed it, acting as its first sponsor could not harm Earle and bringing it into the open early might be the best way of heading it off. "WHAT I THINK" WASHINGTON — Emerging after an hour’s interview with Franklin Roosevelt, Lady Nancy Astor, visiting the United States briefly, interviewed herself for the benefit of newshawks. Her opinion of the United States press: "What I think of the American press would never do to print now. 'Lady Astor Slams America' . . . But don’t say 'British Peeress Came Back to Criticize'—because tain't true." Lady Astor’s opinion of Franklin Roosevelt: "What did I talk to the president about? All sorts of things. I knew him since he was a little boy. I was telling him how remarkable it was for a man so hated to be so free from hate. Don’t you think he's hated? You haven’t been where I've been since I came over on this trip." One of 11,000 sailing for Europe a few days later, Lady Astor gave her opinion on U.S. labor: "What's going on in the United States today is an industrial revolution. Capital is organized and has been EMPLOYMENT FOR WAS USED SITTED TO OUTLAW MOST OF THE WORST Forms of child labor without alarming farmers who expect their children to do chores on the farm. Finally Senator Vandenberg lowered the age limit two years to answer the objection of those who maintained that boys and girls of 16 and 17 were really not children. The judiciary committee approved all this and added a fourth change: a provision requiring the states to pass upon the new proposal by convention within seven years, the same provision which got the repeal amendment acted on within ten months. Said Senator Vandenberg: "Now it's up to the administration. I've done all I can do. If they want to do something about child labor, here's their chance." JOB HUNT— NEW YORK — Not since the Coolidge era have June graduates found jobs as plentiful as have this year’s. Reports Chicago’s graduate placement bureau: 92% placed, average monthly salary $115. Yale: 45% placed, salary $120. Princeton, “anyone who wanted to land a job could do so.” Harvard, “being hired 15% ahead of 1936.” Columbia, “1937 will join 1936 and 1930 as peak years.” Stanford, “50% increase in placements/salaries $105.” U.S. Steel took 594 from 91 colleges, American Telephone & Telegraph 300, General Electric 700, Good-year Tire and Firestone 110 each. TAXI TOUR— WASHINGTON—Sitting in his privately-owned cream and yellow cab in front of Washington’s Dodge hotel on June 1, Driver Joseph N. Carnaggio spied Mr. and Mrs. Francis J. Smith of Watford, Eng., coming down the steps. "How does one go about seeing the United States?" asked Smith. Driver Carnaggio said that a good way to begin was a tour of Washington for $5. During the two-hour trip Carnaggio interspersed his sight-seeing lecture with many a remark about the beauties of near-by Virginia, easily sold the Smiths on the idea of a $75 trip through that state. Three weeks later the trio turned up in Manhattan, having been to Mt. Vernon, Arlington, Yorktown, Jamestown, Charlottesville, over the Skyline Drive to Gettysburg, Pa., then north through Harrisburg to Montreal, Ottawa then Thus last week spoke Starring W. Childs, Jr., in explanation of his father’s $10,000,000 donation to Yale university for the establishment of a Jane Coffin Children Memorial fund, announced by Yale President James Rowland Angell at a vast alumni luncheon in New Haven last week. Advisers of the Childs fund will be: Yale’s Medicine Dean Stanhope Bayne-Jones, a bacteriologist and Rockefeller Foundation protege; his predecessor as dean, Pathologist Milton Charles Winteritz, who at the American Medical convention announced new discoveries about the hardening of the arteries; Rudolph John Anderson, biochemist; Dr. Ross Granville Harrison, biologist who began the artificial cultivation of living tissues, for which the Rockefeller Institute’s Alexis Carrel is more famed; Rockefeller Institute’s Francis Peyton Rous, whose discovery of a type of cancer (Rous’s sarcoma) which can be transplanted from one chicken to another gave students of cancer a powerful new instrument of research. The Childs donation, whose disbursement these scientists will manage, is precisely the amount which the world's No. 1 cancer authority, Manhattan's Dr. James Ewing, says is necessary to establish an effective cancer study institute. SEA BURIAL— NEW YORK — Unknown to most voyagers, every big ocean liner carries a couple of coffins and ship's doctors are qualified embalmers. While ship captains have the right to order burial of bodies at sea, such is a non-sailor's horror of this type of burial to the president about: An sorts of things. I knew him since he was a little boy. I was telling him how remarkable it was for a man so hated to be so free from hate. Don't you think he's hated? You haven't been where I've been since I came over on this trip." One of 11,000 sailing for Europe a few days later, Lady Astor gave her opinion on U.S. labor: "What's going on in the United States today is an industrial revolution. Capital is organized and has been organized for years in the United States, and now labor is just starting to organize. Of course you might as well let it organize, as it will organize anyway. Under such conditions you will always find some leaders losing their heads and becoming vain over the power which is theirs."

Returning to the United States on the "Ile de France" two years ago, devout Danvers, Mass., school Principal Elizabeth Ann Ahearn died of a stroke while in her bath-tub, was not discovered until 14 hours later. Ship's doctors found it inadvisable to embalm the body and the captain called upon Catholic priests aboard to officiate at a sea burial. Subsequently four cousins sued the French Line for $100,000 for their mental anguish resulting from Miss Ahearn's body not having been committed to hallowed ground in a Catholic cemetery, lost last week when Catholic canonical experts testified in a Manhattan federal court that necessitous burial in unconsecrated ground is "not disgraceful."

He said "Consumer interest must be a major consideration. This is antidote for the evil practices that would levy discriminatory tax and thus raise prices on the everyday necessities of life and thereby lower the standards of living. Our energies must be devoted to preservation and fostering methods of distribution which demonstrably in the public interest. "It is in the public interest that oppose the use of agriculture products as loss leaders; to maintain proper working conditions employees and to prevent correct abuses in distribution to maintain high standards." Tarmar and other producers products we retail must always have an absolutely fair and helpful consideration." Mr. Van de Kamp paid a gluing tribute to William M. Beahead of the Owl Drug and retiring president who lead the success ballot against the discriminatory anti-chain tax that was defeated last election. Overwhelming Majority of Public Opposes Sit-Downs, Survey Show The United States public is overwhelmingly against John L. Lewis and the C.I.O. and sit-down strikes are highly unpopular among all walks of life, including factory workers, according to a survey made by Fortune Magazine and published in their current issue. At the same time, the great majority of Americans favor responsibility for labor unions, the survey shows. On the question of sit-down strikes, 74.4 per cent of those interviewed disapproved and thought they should be stopped, only 16.9. "Evidently then," says Fortune "William Green was conspicuously right when he declared that public opinion will not support sit-down strikes. What he went for three out of every people.
