1 Arguments against Ratification of the Proposed Child Labor Amendment to the Constitution of the United States: Views of Senator Duncan U. Fletcher, of Florida 1934

FLETCHER, OF FLORIDA. December 7, 1934. Honorable Scott M. Loftin, President, American Bar Association, Jacksonville, Florida. My dear Mr. Loftin: I have been requested to write you setting forth, at least to some extent, my views with reference to the Federal Child Labor Amendment to the Constitution of the United States. I had occasion to discuss the proposition in a letter to a Florida constituent, which was, on motion of Sena- tor William Cabell Bruce of Maryland, inserted in the CONGRESSIONAL RECORD. I entertain the same views now as I did at that time, and I herewith enclose extract from the CONGRESSIONAL RECORD, mentioned. I may add that it seems to me increasingly important that the rights of the States in respect to this subject should be maintained. It is a matter clearly within the jurisdiction and control of the States, and I believe it would be a mistake to change the Constitution so as to deprive the States of their powers and duties in connec- tion with this matter.
