Running through the entire his-

Connecticut fear of losing her orig-

\(I that it. was the value placed upon
this germ of free government that
led the senate on Tuesday ‘10 reject
the so-called child labor amendment.
Senator Cronin. who led in the brief
debate. stated emphatically. that
the Connecticut attitude is a "sincere
protest against the growing tendency
to drift away from local self govern-
ment and self protection." .l‘ie fur-
ther declared: “Not only does the
proposed amendment abrogoto the
state's authority to regulate labor
conditions with regard to children up
to 18 years of age. but it takes away
tl'rom parents natural rights over
their children." In other words,
Senator Cronin was committing an
attempt on that part of the federal
government operating through the
federal halls of legislation to add to
its already brutal seizure of police
powers the power to take full charge
of all persons under 18 years or age
from Maine to California and from
the Lakes'to the Gulf tn whatover
way the questionable wisdom of a
federal bureau might dictate. The
power sought under the proposed
amendment is of. the most‘sweeping
