It is in the committee bill and it has been in the act from the beginning. This was a piece of New Deal legislation in 1934. In 1937 Franklin Delano Roosevelt had this to say about the subject now before us: It is also highly desirable to continue the policy. which was inherent in the JonesCostigan Act. of effectuating the principle that an industry which desires the protection afforded by a quota system. or a tariff. should be expected to guarantee that it will be a good employer. I recommend. therefore. that the prevention of child labor. and the payment of wages of not less than minimum standards. be included among the conditions for receiving a federal payment. That was the policy when the act was adopted in 1934.
