THE CURTAIN AT GENOA JUDGMENT upon the Uenea conference which doses with a full session tedaj', depends largely upon the amount of hope and expectation invested in that onture. Visions of a love-feast of radicals and reactionaries, and of a readjusted Europe Suddenly arising upon the foundations of a new statesmanship were scdiutive but in substantial. The exclusion of the reparation- question and ether difficulties derived from the Treaty of Versailles seneu-ly narrowed the cope, of the conclave nt the outset. The weight of international attention was then Immediately diverted te the Russian situa tion, te the Irtiml neglect of an abundance of' financial and commercial issues, indud ing taritf regulation-, money stabilization, rates of exchange and industrial co-operation.

THE RIGHT WAY TO GET FEDERAL CHILD LABOR LAWS Twe Adverse Supreme Court Decisions Indicate That a Valid Statute Cannet Be Passed Without a Consti tutional Amendment Till wisdom of preventing the exploita tion nf child labor Is net Imelvcif in the Supreme Court decision invalidating the prevision- of the revenue law levying a tnx of lit per cent en the net profits of a factory in which children are employed. The decision is based en the fact that the Constitution docs net gic le Congress any authority Mer the regulation of labor within the States. The Court Insists that Congress cannot de by indirection what It .has no power te de dlrcctlj. A law wa passed n few years age for bidding the shipment In Interstate com merce of (he product of factories employing children. The advocates of Federal regula tion were convinced t lint . as Congress could regulate lemmerce among the Slates. It could safeguard the children bj preventing the shipment In interstate commerce of nny goods in the manufacture of which children had been employed. The constitutionality of such legislation was denied by some of the ablest lawyers In Congress while the bill was under considera tion. They cited court dccl-ien- en Ihe inter-tat tumeric ihiuse of the Consti tution which justified 1 ongre-sleiiiii Inter ference when goods te 5ie transported were Injurious te, public health or In public morals, hut net the right te exclude from Interstate ceminerci a merchaiilable nnd pllie cnliiiniidily . When the subject of child labor was, before Congress in I'.MI". 11 committee was appointed le Inquire into II- power, and that committee reported that "there Is no question a- te the entire want of power en the part of Congress te exercise jurisdiction and authority ever the subject of woman and child labor." Yet a few years later Congress did pass the act excluding from Interstate commerce the product of child lalier. This act was held le be unconstitutional by the Supreme Court, which insisted thai the making of goods was net commerce nnd that Congress had no power le attempt te regulate the manufacture of goods under Its grant of power te regulate interstate commerce. This decision. hewcM'r, was made by a vote of live te four. .Justice Helmes insisted that Congress could puss u child labor law. The dis-enting opinions encouraged the advocates of such a law te make another attempt, this time under the taxing power of Congress. The prol-len in the revenue law putting a tux of ID per cent en the profits of factories employing children was the result. There was no attempt te conceal the pur pose of the law. It was net Intended te rnl-e revenue, as the tnx was made se high that It was thought It would dl-eeiirage the employment of children se eflfcethely that no revenue would be produced. In defending the law before the Supreme Court the attorneys for the (ievernnient at tempted te establish the preposition that the court! had no right te Inquire into the pur poses of Congress, but that it must recog nize the right te levy taxes without ques tion. Chief .lustli p Ta ft disinis(d this contention by the obvious remark that the court could net Ignore what every one else knew and that It must prevent Congre from ex'ceedlng its power. "The geed sought In unconstitutional legislation," the Chief Justice remarked, "is an insidious feature because It leads citizens ami legislators of geed purpose te promote it without thought of the serious breach It will make in the ark of our coc cec nant or the harm which will come from breaking down, our -tandaids." This decision .sustaining the police power of the States ill matters net expressly dele gated te Congress by the Constitution will be gratifying le etcry one who liu- been concerned with the gradual and in-ldlou-expansien of the powers of the 1cutr.1l government. The I'uited States 1- a federation of sov ereign Commonwealths te which lire reserved all the powers net expressly delegatrd te Congress. Tills Is forgotten by many c it 1 Zens, who see through congressional lutien a short cut te the adoption of reforms te which they are reiumltted. They are -e anxious te bring icbeut the reforms that they ignore the constitutional restrictions. If ought te be apparent te them, new that twice within four years two child labor laws have been declared te be unconstitutional, the only way by which Congress inn be empowered te pass a v.'illd law Is through an amendment te the Constitution cxprc-sTy 1 (inferring en Congress the right te regulate the labor of children. If this were rati fied br the rrquited number of States, the backward States, where child labor is still tolerated, would have te submit te the will of the majority. DENATURED PROFANITY TiHK inteie-t In I.inly AMer's irmatk that she ilui sii't "care a tuck-a-dunt" seems te indicate that then' Is still a ibep and unsatisfied yearning for expletives untainted by profanity. Ne one likes te have It said of htm that he swears like a trooper. Hut there are' in elisions of irritation when ( veil the eh rgy have been moved le expiess their gratitude for the services of 11 laviuaii who had .1 large and sulphureus vocabulary . lint the ts(. of denatured profanity 1- nel new. "Zounds" and " '(Id's li'oeil" weie used hundreds of years age bv ladles ami gentlemen who leuld net bring themselves te use the expressions en which these are bnsed. And pious eti Indies have for en - turles been exclaiming "Dear me," some times without knowing Us origin. The pro pre faulty In the words has been -e thoroughly deniilurl.ed that uie-t of us have forgotten that it ever vviis profane. Then theie nie "gush" and "golly" anil "gee will." ililcli lievs use without rebuke, III the same class v it h these me "by the great jumping .choephat" and "by ihe great horned spoon," which satisfy the need of harmless variety. And men who would resent the imputation of profanity have sworn "by dad," and have in-isleij when questioned that iad was only the seu of Jin ob by his handmaiden I.eah, The favorite oath of 11 versatile Philadel phiau used te be "by I he great I'nitnl Stales." He 1011I1I use It In the picspimi of Indies and children without rebuke even from the most squeamish. It was emphatic enough te .relieve his feelings while it cji nhlcd Mill te preserve his self-respeet. He objected te many of the lady-like expressions that are occasionally used. Theres "both eration," for example, which is the most vigorous" expletive employed by Arthur ,1, llulfeur when playing golf, a game said te be conducive te infraction et the decalegue, The wan v. he says "mtheratlen" when he lops the ball either has marvelous self control or is se indifferent te what happens that he can leek with equanimity en the fall of empires. Ne discussion of this subject would lie complete without, reference te what Is nstiiilly called wooden profanity. It is the kind frequently used in ending 11 discussion between 11 husband and wife, find consists In going out of the room and slamming the deer. The noise tuny he interpreted te mean any thing that appeals te the Imagination of the aggrieved party te the discussion. I.ntly Aster's tuck-n-dunt Is said te be n euphemism for "tinker's dam," a phrase se harmless that It needs no variant. It Is as Innocent as n drop of solder or a pinch of resin, for Hint Is what n tinker's dam usually consists of. Such expressions, how ever, are interesting te students of the lan guage, if it Ims net nlready happened, It Is likely that some candidate for the degree of doctor of philosophy will seen compile a list of the utiprefane expletives in English for ihe ns three centuries and write a thesis en them te justify the university in conferring the degree upon him. THE STEEL DINNER NOTHIXtt could be funnier than the ex citement caused in Washington und In editorial sanctums elsewhere by the news that President Harding had invited the cap tains and generals of the steel Industry te dinner. Had Mr. Harding asked a group of Heuse and Senate leaders te dine no one would have thought anything of it. If platoons of diplomatists were seen unfolding napkins at the White Heuse table Wash ington would have looked en complacently and there might have been a line or two In the news te tell of the progress of our new diplomatic policy. Ruslness men, however, continue te be suspect In Washington. That they have mere te de In the movement toward prosperity than ellher.pelitlcliuis or foreign diplematists: that they have le de tlic actual work necessary le the further lemfuri and welfare of the country does net matter in their favor. What In the world could the President be thinking about V "What's this, what's thlsV demanded the Democrats in anger and alarm.

"The Department of Justice." said one such newspaper gravely , "Is following n hands-off policy in relation te the stceljucn's dinner." A few Washington correspondents who bad no hymn- of hate te sing ever the wires Jilt what is plainly the simple truth when they reported that the President w.anted te talk te the steel men intimately about some aspects of their business which, in his opinion, might properly be improved, and about ether things which business may be1 nble te de for the general geed of the Wilted Stales. Jt is easy te Imagine that a little straight talk from the President may de mere at nny time for progressive economic policy than years of congressional probes. Ihe psychology of Congress is such that Heuse and Senate (enimlttees must almost always assume attitudes of attm k when anv question relative te doubtful Industrial poli cies is put te big business men. Almest every formal inquiry In Washington there fore begins as a centlict rather than as an effort te get at the truth and de impartial justice.

That Is, he was capable then and there, after a night of great anxiety and a morning of complete disillusionment, te he "geed friends" with the perseus who had come out ahead, and Xe leek the results squarely In the face. I also thought that If lie showed self-control and a plucky at tude ns a loser, these who had come out as winners in that little group, the five women gathered there, took the responsibility en tailed by their victory In qitlte ns geed n spirit. Thev were serious and deeply thank ful and without rancor for what had been, and with a quiet appreachablcness for what could be. I ASKED Mr. linker as he summed up what hud happened hew it had happened. He said quickly, nnd as though he had said it mere than ence In the course of that Inst twenty-four hours : "The women did If '." Since then ether leaders, from the Gov Gov ereor te the contractor bosses, have said the same thing. Only I noticed that the (.overner's well-known geniality toward the ladies gave way slightly under the stress of his defeat, when he divided the onus of the defeat between the women and the coal itrlke, which was a verdict perhaps mere true of his state of mind than it was of the state of the case. Personally knowing women even belter than these gentlemen of the political sort. 1 de nel think it was due te women that (fifferd Piuehet was 'elected the majority Republican candidate for Governer, great and geed a man us be is, and enterprising and resourceful a candidate as he proved himself. 1 think the Independent Repub licans could net have swung the women who are new te voting into se universal a par tisanship, even for Pinchot against Alter, if the Organization lenders, from the Gov Gov ereor te Mr. Vnre. had net done surrep titiously and in u corner what should have been done openly and in order, and accord ing te the geed traditions of Republicanism, in the full light of day. with nil the pub licity that persons who have nothing te fear should observe iu a matter touching the wel fare of a great Commonwealth.

WALTER On Athletics for Girls ATHLETICS for girls of varieis ages Is playing an important part in the up building of the women of the next gener ation, in the opinion of Miss Jniicf It. Walter, supervisor of athletics for girls in the Philadelphia public schools. "The cnthusinsin with which the girls take te athletics and which is visibly in creasing every year." said Miss Walter, "augurs well for n stronger race of Ameri can women in the future. The schools, iiave done a geed deal in this respect since nth letlc training was first Introduced as a part of the regular curriculum, and the schools of tliis city are well te the front in their physical development of the pupils. As it new stands, the pupils are obliged te take a certain nuieunt of athletic work, but they lake te it se well that a still larger amount, practically all of which is purely volun tary, Is done by almost nil of them. The Regular Athletic Werk "In the youngest grades, that is the ele mentary gradef from one te six, the athletic work required consists of three events, the jump, the threw and running a fifty-yard dush. 'In grades seven and eight, another event, knee raising, is added, nnd in the high school mere difficult work, in addition te these four events, is required, some of it being with apparatus. "This teaches th" athletic habit early in life te all of the girls, and few of them ever depart from it. The result is that they will continue some form of athletic exer cise throughout life anil will become stronger and mere healthy women thereby. "Each class Is divided by a color scheme such us reds and blues, etc., there being two classes of girls and two of boys. All the girls are required te take these exercises unless they arc excused from them by n certification by a physician tFiat they would prove detrimental te the health of the child. "Each of these subdivisions of the class, designated by its lespective colors, lias a captain appointed from its own ranks, who records what each student accomplishes In athletics, and this record Is entered en the back of an age-aim sheet. These age-alms tell what should be normally expected of children of various ages. The boys of the school are likewise divided into two classes, Indicated like these of the girls by color designations. "On the back of these sheets the captains check up the work of the members of their cempanUs, and from the re-u'ts of this checking up it Is determined whether or net the student bus passed iu athletic work. "In addition te this regular work there are many school games, and se great has become tile Interest In athletics that leagues for inter-sclioel contests have been organ ized. These games anil membership in the leagues are entirely optional, and the girls of each school decide whether they will enter the leagues or net. The favorites of the-ii games among the girls nie captiiinbull, dedgeball and endball. "Se much enthusiasm has been shown by the girl students for these games that we new have twenty-nine cnpttilnball, eight Vedgebnll and six endball icains In the schools. Cnpluinbull has proved se popular that we have been obliged te make five sub divisions in tlie league devoted te (hat sport. These contests are se arranged Hint thev narrow down te the two best tennis, whlcii then play for the school championship of the city. The Winning Schools "The dedgeball contest for', he season has been played and the winner was the tenm frctm the Ilulliwell Scheel, with that from the Nicholas- Scheel second. In endball the championship lies between Ihe Reynolds and the Hurney schools. "In the junior high schools the girls are piny Ing a league schedule of games In cap tiiinbull and volleyball, and iu the senior high schools this year for the first time the girls have organized a baseball league There are four school- represented in this leiiL'iie- William Peiiii. Fraiikfenl k slen and the Southern. "As a whole the girl.- are greallv Inter ested in these sports, and in all forms of athletics s well and nut much vim Inte llielr playing of them. 'Ihe American women are cry much meie athletic than they for merly were, and 1 believe that at least a narL of this Is due te the tralnim? u-!,l,.i, ..!...... of these new arrived at the cstutu of young womanhood received In their youth. And ngalnl It may be that the naturally mere ul iktle trend of tint women bus crente.i .. lit) earn a mere keen Interest in sperls and PASSED ALOtfG athletic exercises. But however It came about, it is here and apparently here te stay. "The girls play all the sports which I have mentioned in their own schools, whether they organize teams te compete against ether schools or net. They have also tennis, nnd in the fall hockey, both of which are very popular. There are also ninny swimming clubs in the schools, and the girls who belong te them go te the nearby peels for instruction und practice. Seme day, if we can get our own peel, as some ether cities have, this will be an important part of the athletic curriculum. Regan Fifteen Years Age "Athletic instruction In the schools started fifteen years age; that Is. in 1!)07. llefere that time there was nothing in the elementary schools, although there was u little work in the high schools. Then the latter had one or. at most, two teachers of athletics; new some of them have eight or nine. "The progress made in this branch of the school work has been verv great, and It has been attended with excellent results. I here are three tests at the close of the term, and every girl under sixteen years of age is eligible te take them. The first in cludes a standing jump five feet three Inches long, throwing a basketball twenty-five feet, running fifty yards in eight seconds nnd n dedgeball threw of thirlv-live feet. Fer passing this n certificate is given and sev eral thousands were awarded last year. "These who pass this test may take the second, wh ch requires that the time or dis tance of the first test be slightly bettered and adds chinning' once. Last vear this was rewarded with a silver button.' but this year there w 11 be another certificate. All who pass both these tests successfully miiv ake the third, which makes littU greater physlea deinatids included 'chinning- twice ami swimming 1E!0 yards. Fer this test the 4risrm,!,,,'iwl,1,i1'.1: hw"' vului'11 the girls, will lie issued this year.
