By a unanimous” vote. the Cham-
ber went on record as being opposed
to the question of the referendum
relative tp the proposed twentieth
2-1 mcndment to the Constitution of
’tho United States which would sanc-
iiion regulation of Child Labor by
1 the Federal authorities. '
The consensus of opinion was that
the states were in a. better position
to regulate child labor than if it
were to'be under Federal contr0i.
It was said that Connecticut did not
favor the eighteenth amendment to
the Constitution. namely. the Vol-
stead Act. 'and it was said that the
state legislature is opposed to any
amendment to the United States
constitution. _

NEW HAVEN. Jan. 14.—-The first
official meeting of the Connecticut
committee on ratification of the
Child Labor Amendment was held
here yesterday to plan a program
to bring about as early as posublo
ratification ‘of the amendment by
the State Legislature.
The discussion centered largely on
means for combatting what was de-
clared to be a. misunderstanding
about the 18-year limit in the, amend
ment. It was pointed out that many
persons are of the opinion that the
amendment. if paced. will load to
laws preventing every person under
18 from working. The limit was
placed at 18, speakers said, in order
to give Congress the opportunity of
keeping persons under 18 out of the
hazardous occupations. if it should
ever become necessary.
Connecticut. along with other
states, it was pointed out. is now
regulating tho labor of persons up
to 18 years of age by laws forbidding
persons under that age from run-
ning fast elevators, from working
after 1 o’clock as meadow“. and
by that part of the compensation act
which provides for extra. compensa-
tion if the person injured is. under
f8 years of age.
