SENATOR GEORGE
SOUNDS WARNING TO
AMERICAN BANKERS
American are charged by
Senator Walter F. George, Demo
crat, Georgia, with shirking tneir rc
eponsibilit*. and warned by him that
unless they function, the people
would make the goremment provide
a banking system.
George contended to the Senate
yesterday that by their “philosophy,’’
of not investing unions a business
were absolutely profitable in fullest
sense, the bankers were preventing
dollars from going to work to help
offset the emergency.
“I think,” he said, “that there will
be no real return to a normal pros
perous condition in the United States
until we somehow' find u banker who
has the sense to see that the char
acter of the merchant, the character
of the small manufacturer, the char
acter of the professional man is yet
good security if banking is to be
carried on in a sensible, normal
way.”
His criticism, made in the Senate
yesterday in debating the $500,000,-
000 administration unemployment re
lief bill, was explained by him as not
directed at all bankers but “those
hankers who control our system very
largely.” ’
“How will enterprise become jfro
fitable unless the banker helps to
make it profitable?” George continu
ed. “Does he not owe some obliga
tion to the business of this country?
Is there not some responsibility on
the American banker?”
“Every privilege,” George said, had
been extended to the bankers by the
government, adding:
“We have granted almost any
power that seemed to be reasonable
and defensible in an effort to help
the banks in this emergency. Are
they open for the single purpose of
drawing through the pipelines we
have constructed the balance of the
money of the American taxpayer, or
are they open to meet the legitimate
and conservative demands of honest
and courageous Americans?
“If the banking system which we
have built up does not understand
and appreciate the necessity of fur
nishing credit where credit may be
legitimately extended and upon se
curity which is safe . . . whatever
may be said about a unified system
of banking, or banks must be pre
pared to accept the decision of the
American people to have some form
of credit and some form of service.
“The government will go further
and further into business. We may
regret it, we may all deplore it, but
nevertheless we will not escape it.”

4,500 BABIES DIE IN
GEORGIA EVERY YEAR
To make parents, and some doct
ors, understand the importance of
registration of births has been a
matter of concern to the state de
partment of public health. An ar
ticle in a recent issue of Georgia’s
Health brings out the importance of
this registration in the following
forceful manner:
“How many people ever stop to
think what becomes of the 60,000
babies born in Georgia each year?
Well, the tragic fact is that about 4,-
500 die before their first birthday,
and 6,000 die between the ages of
one to twenty-four years it is ob
vious that the dangerous age is the
first year of life.
“The appalling fact that 4,500 lit
tle babies should die annually in
Georgia before they have reached
twelve months of age makes one
wonder why. There are probably
some causes for these untimely
deaths that we do not understand,
but we do know' that there are both
public and private agencies with
scientific knowledge and the neces
sary equipment to prevent many of
these infant deaths. All of these
agencies with their scientific knowl
edge, machinery and power stand
ready and eager to promote health
and extend human life. But they
are greatly handicapped in their ef
forts to promote health and extend
human life unless they know when
and where preventable deaths occur,
and their work in conserving the
lives of infants is restricted unless
they know when, where and under
what circumstances babies are born.
Therefore we are brought face to
face with the proposition that the
maximum of disease or death pre
vention or of health or life conserva
tion can not be attained until there
is complete registration of all births
and deaths.
“When fewer mothers dies more
babies live. When fewer births go
unregistered more babies get scienti
fic care during the dangerous age.”

MILLION S OF POUNDS USED
BY OUR GOVERNMENT
TO COOB4 THE ENTIRE
AT this time when many
people are actually in want
of food, It is important to
determine what is the best form
In which to give it to them. Here
Is evidence from New York, Phil
adelphia, Los Angeles and Cin
cinnati that canned foods should
play a large part in food distrib
ution for charity.
The woman’s page editor of a
large New York morning news
paper writes:
“Canned foods played a decided
part,, in the 16,000 baskets which
were distributed by our Christ
mas and relief fund. At least
one can of peas, one can of corn,
two cans of soup, one can of pork
and beans, one can of milk and
one can of coffee were included
in every basket.
Economical and Always Good
“Certainly the value of these
canned foods cannot be underesti
mated. A family receiving one
of these splendidly filled baskets,
grateful for it in a time of des
perate need, is not forced to eat
the contents of the basket in a
given space of time. The canned
foods can be used one by one,
and they will be just as good,
just as fresh, just as edible, even
if they are left on the shelves for
months!
“The canned foods afford a food
all ready to serve, requiring only
a minimum of gas to heat.
There’s a saving of the fuel.
They bring summer fruits and
vegetables into bleak winter diets,
and they help to make meals
balanced.
“Not only do canned foods play
an important part in food distri
bution work at the present time,
25

THE BEST FOOD RELIEF
but they play an important if
not a leading part in the dietary
of the American home.”
The Philadelphia Way
One of the editors of a great
Philadelphia daily newspaper
writes:
“Canned foods form the basis of
most of the independent charita
ble movements in the vicinity of
Philadelphia, for they have the
three most necessary quafttles—
they are substantial, cheap and
easy to handle. For these rea
sons, among others, people think
first of canned foods when they
want to make gifts of foodstuffs
to the poor.
“Theaters in this city and in
suburban communities nearby
have been holding what they call
‘Canned Food Matinees’, at which
the only admission charge is a
certain amount of canned foods.
This is turned over to the local
relief organizations for immedi
ate delivery. The theater manag
ers feel that this is the best way
to help, for canned foods keep
until they are actually needed,
and are easy to prepare. The
latter is important to many
people who have no means in
their homos of preparing foods,
and have no means of cooking
them.
“Without exaggeration, it can
he said that canned foods play
the most important part of any
o’ther item of direct relief.”

of charity baskets and find that
each one of them contained
canned fruits or vegetables, or
both. These baskets are usually
put up by the wholesale houses
or by one or two large chain
grocers.
“Without exception, the baskets
contained a large can of tomatoes,
can of corn, can of peas, pound
of prunes and a loaf of bread.
That seems to be the canned
foods content of the regulation
basket with possibly the addition
of one or two cans of canned
salmon.”
Cincinnati’s Christmas
The Director of Home Eco
nomics of a big Cincinnati news
paper writes:
"Came the holiday season and
out from the Home Forum went
a call for Christmas cheer. Each
day saw a steady response from
one and all, a pouring into my
office of cans both great and
small, cafis of all shapes and filled
with all things—every vegetable
and fruit that grows—good old
‘spaghett’, beans, soup, fish
courses too, if you please; sau
sages for breakfast, even delica
cies such as relish, ‘jell’ aDd pud
ding, and now—what did I see?
—Why, nothing less than cerned
beef, that meant to buy a potato or
so for while they do come in cans
no one has thought to bring them,
at least not the regular kind for
corned beef hash, but sure as I
live there was a can of ‘sweets.’
“And so folks that’s all the
story of how my office was made
to look like an emergency shelf
and our Christmas cheer for the
needy this year was seventy-flv
per cent, out of cans.”*
