BOY BOOTBLACKS
Still Ply Trade on City
Streets
Washington, D. C. (I. L. N. S.).—
Shoe-shining parlors and indoor stands
have not yet driven the boy bootblack
from the city streets. In all but one
of seven cities in which the Children's
Bureau of the United States Depart
ment of Labor made a survey of all
kinds'of juvenile street workers, some
boys reported that they were boot
blacks. Although some cities had only
a few, Newark had 387 and Wilkes-'
Barre 75.
"Bootblacking by children, like ped
dling, should be prohibited by street
trades regulations," the bureau says,
in reporting the results of the survey.
"The work has many of the disadvan
tages of newspaper selling without
such advantages in~ the way of train
ing as selling papers may have."
In Newark 43 per cent and in
Wilkes-Barre 47 pr cent of the boys
were under 12 years of age. In each
of the cities the bootblack was more,
retarded in school than any other
group of street workers and the pro
portion of bootblacks with juvenile
court records was almost twice that
for newspaper sellers in Wilkes-Barre,
the only city for which this informa
tion was obtained.
The bureau's survey indicated that
certain legal provisions are essential
to even moderately successful control
of the street trades problem. The first
of these, the report says, is a specific
law or regulation applying to the
street worker. School authorities and
labor officials have found that most
street work can not be regulated by a
general child labor law, the word "em
ploy" in the latter type of law being
almost invariably construed to mean
the purchasing of the services of one
person by another, a technicality
which deprives the "little street mer
chant" of the protection afforded oth
er working children.
Satisfactory regulations included a
badgesystem the placing of responsi
bility for enforcement definitely upon
a single official .and the control of the
issuance of badges and of street in
spections by the same agency.
2 DREAM-HEARER
By MARY CAROLYN DAVIES
Where weary folk toil, black with
And hear but whistles scream,
I went, all fresh from dawn and dew,
To carry them a dream.
I went to bitter lanes and dark,
Who once had known the sky,
To carry them a dream—and found
They had more dreams than I.
Some minds are like concrete—thor
oughly mixed and permanently set.
