A quotation outlines support for individual workers who choose to work non union yet opposes union coercion by force. It argues the crisis tests law and order in Colorado with arming citizens, appeals to government action, and notes Upton Sinclair and others protesting mining conditions. Reports of killings and casualties at Hecla and related clashes follow with proclamations urging peace and arrests for arms shipments.

Howard Seeks Bigger Aid for Children Bureau
Washington April 28. Representative Howard of Georgia pressed for a higher appropriation for the children's bureau, urging $162,640 against $25,650, with Miss Julia Lathrop backing the larger sum. He argued the bureau saves lives and exposes minimal waste, asserting infant mortality remains tragically high and that federal action can spur improvements without harming states. The debate highlighted stark mortality statistics and the bureau's potential to influence national welfare.
