CHAIP CLARIS PLATF01N.
leader Declares That Appointment of
Committees Should Not be in
Speaker's Hands.
Washington, Dec. 16.-Representa
tive Champ Clark gave out a statement:
tonight, fuliy outlining his platform as
the prospective speaker of the Demo
cratic house of representatives in the
next congress. He proclaims himself
in favor of the appointment of com
Iiitees of the house by a committee.
rather than by the speaker, and he
state his belief that the -tariff should
be revised schedule by schedul' rather
than in one single bill. Those two
subjects, says Mr. Clark, are the ones
upon which he has been continually
importuned to make some statement.
The Democratic members of the
house today sent out a call for a cau
cus January 19 of the Democratic
membership of the next house of rep
resentatives. Mr. Clark's setatement
Ist oth an explanation of the call and
a d-'ciaration of his own bpatform as
the probable speaker of the ,house.
Caucus January 19.
The caucus will select a ways and
means zor mittee and a rules cciomit
tele, somewhat larger than the present
c&nmmati!ei-es.
Mr. Clark believes that one of the
committees should then be empower
-ed to select the other committees of
the house.
"'Tbere are two thecries of tariff
revision," said he in his statnment,
"revision by one general bill and re
vision by separate bills for separate
schedules. This is a matter not of
principle, but of method.
"Individually, I prefer Lhe sch-me
-) separate bills for separate sched
-ulies, taking the scledules with th.
mest o;nxious i.tw s first, perbaps
-in certain cases having separate bills
for particular items."
The statement proceeds to say that
whatever method is decided upon, al,
bearing as comprehensive as that
which ,preceded the framing of the
Payne-Aldrich law will be had by the
new ways and means committee.
On Tariff Revision.
"The assumption growing out of ig
norance in certain quarters," says Mr.
Clark, "that President Taft or Sena
tor Cummins or any other Renublican
has discovered something new in tariff
revision by the separate scheme iI
- prepostierous. As far back as tile 52d
congress Mr. Chairman Springer in
troduced separate bills for senarate,
ischedules and for narticulr 4Mems.
which were derisively denomin-ated
'Springer's pop gun hills' by "ennb
lican speakers and w"ite-s; an^ T~'er
al' years before Juio Snr'- was
-Chairman of the com'mittee on ways
and means, Mr. McKenzie, of ~wke
achieved both gre'e renown "-nd the
soubriquet of 'Quirin,o .Ti"m' ren'
ing the passage of '- hill not'"~i
ine on the free liet. and to"'- -y
oher item whatsoever in a"n tarf
schedule."
Mr. Clark declaroe he is -' 'i
favor of inviting to the cane' '1f
the Democratic members-e~ Ue
goes on to say that his effo-rt~
last two years have been
largely to the unification of fl' 'A
crats in the house and for t
-the members-elect should be ~ien
every opportunity. if tha t uni~-'
to be maintained,. tn exnrm~' +'-i
choice in the naminrg of the ~4
of the committees.
Doesn't Want Anpointive Thwer
Two questions, Mr. Clark nys in-'
terest the country, how the Democrats
will select its committees and~ what
the party will do with the tariff. This'
last question has been answeredl. and
proceeding to the first, the sta'ement
says:
"As to the mod-e of selecting comn
mittees in the event of my own elec
tion to the speakership. I would not
care the snap of -my finiger to everecine
the power of appointing them. I have
state~d that to every Democratic mem
ber who cared to inauire as to my on
i..nion. The exercise of that nower
would undoubtedly 'have certain un
pleasan t features." cu;s
Of th- tv-o plans for the ele'-tion of
er directly by the house itself, Mr.
Clerk favors the Tast named.
This is based on the fact that in the
debatl1e States the ir.''- ordent vd
e-rs appear to favor it and the future
speaker c.f the house frankly ackn ow
led.ges that it may be adopted because
of the influence it would have in re
turning a Democratic president and a
Democratic congress in 1912.
CHILD LABOR LAW REVISION.
State Committee Asks Gradual Raise
of Age Limit-Poverty Exempt
ions and Birth Registration.
Columbia. Dec. 16.--The South Car
olina child labor committee met here
today. Among the members of the
committee present were Chairman Geo
B . Cromer, Dr. A. T. Jamison, Bishop
-Guerry. Miss Louisa B. Poppenheim.
)Dr. Wel.tner, Prof. Hand. Dr. 0. Y.
nn-:,,zs th,? Mno. Tn. A. McCHllm~a
an(l Serry .1ohn Por-- Hollnz.
Iessrs. Lang, dt:l. Hanw,
Geer and Summers, a conunittee rep
resenting the South Carolina Cotton
Manufacturers, were prsenT request
ing to be heard and were invited to ap
near before the child labor committee
for the purpose of presenting the point
of view of the mill owners regarding
child labor conditions in th State and
the practicability of amendments to
the present child labor law.
After the representatives of' the
manufacturers retired, the committee
3dopted the following resolul 0ins:
Resolved, Th-u any reference to the
raising of the ago limit be stricken
>ut of our child labor bill to be sub
mitted to the general assembly at the
:oming session.
Resolved, That the South Carolina
:hild labor committee places itself on
record as favoring a gradual ris- of
the age limit to 14 years as soon as
in the opinion of the committee, the
:onditions are favorable.
Resolved, That a copy of these -pro
meedings be sent to the newspapers of
he State with the request that they be
published with editorial comment, to
he end that public sentiment in behalf
f child labor reform be created.
The action of the commit-tee today
results in a somewhat altered legisla
tive programme. That is to say the
general assembly will be asked to pass
two bills.
A bill amending the present law
by repealing the poverty exemption
and prohibiting the night work of
,hildren under sixteen.
A bill to provide for the registration
f birth and marriages. No effort
will be made by the child labor com
mittee for the -present to secure an in
rease in the age limit. The cotton
mill people want a compulsory educa
tion law before any other legislation
is undertaken relative to the child
ren in the mill communnities.

Showing What Small Savings Will
Do In The Aggregate
The largest railway company in this country
recently borrowed fifty million dollars, on its
bonds, from the people of France. This is re
markable, owing to similar loans made by same
people to other countries, about the same time.
Where do the French people get all of this
money? Jno. D. Rockefeller, after returning
from one of his trips to Paris, tells the secret in
seven words: "The people of France save their
money." YOU cannot afford to take any un
necessary risk with your hard-earned savings.
During these prosperous times the temptation
to invest in some form of speculation is very
great. All sorts of inducements are offered,
and, unless great caution is exercised, errors
are likely to be made which will prove costly.
The shrewd investor does not put his money in
to every scheme presented which promises large
returns, or into some speculation guaranteed to
return you something for nothing; rather is he
satisfied with ABSOLUTE SECURITY for
both PRINCIPAL AND INTEREST such as
is afforded by this Bank.
Would it not be well for you to begin saving
NOW, according to the policy of .the French
people? Your account, large or small will be
welcomed. Make a START RIGHT AWAY
by coming in and talking over your interests
with our Cashier.
