PROBERS PRAISE ASSOCIATED THE ATLANTA GEORGIAN AND NEWS. Chamber of Commerce Commit tee Finds Complaints Are « Groundless. « (fleers of the Atlanta Associated unties diseussed with gratification rsday tn^ thoroughgoing indorse- 111 of their work hv the special nmittee of the Atlanta Chamber of inmerce. The committee, named as the re sult of several minor complaints in expect to the Associated Charities’ ethods, found the complaints to be groundless and discovered so much i commend that they reported at ngth on the good work of the or- einizatlon, and urged that contribu- ons for charity be given to the As- scclated Charities in preference to any similar body, because of the eer- i.iinty th^t It would be Judiciously ex- :ended. Only two criticism severe offered. • >ne was that the organization prob ably erred in being too painstaking In the keeping of some of its records Change Recommended. 1 was recommended that certain f the records in respect to treatment • cases be loss voluminous. In this ay it was thought clerical expenses vould be minimized. Another recommendation was made :at the records of disbursements of 1 ds to individuals be made more omplete by obtaining a receipt from he recipient. Referring to the work of the Asso- . iated Charities, the report says: •It Is our opinion that the best work eing done is along the lines of treat- nu nt and prevention of diseases among the poor. The association di- \; es this work into two phases. First, ♦ !-< treatment of diseases in the indi- \ h'.ual family, second, undertaking to m rcase and improve the general fa cilities for treating and preventing ! oases and sickness in a community, specially in relation to the poor. “In regard to the first phase, the association endeavors always to see that every needy family concerning whom there is any indication of dis ease receives medical attention. In securing such treatment for these people, they use the Grady Hospital, college clinics and the services of pri vate practitioners. For the month of October, 1913, almost 100 cases wore referred for treatment to private practitioners who gave their services free. "During the past year the associa tion expended more than $600 for medicines alone, which they distrib uted to the poor, and a large sum of money was used to supply suitable eyeglasses. During the past year the association has secured the services of physicians for 908 families and di rected to clinics and places in the hospital members of 557 families, se cured nurses in 140 families, and fur nished glasses and medicines to mem bers of 583 families. "The second phase of the medical work has its relation to the improve ment of the general facilities and the prevention of disease. Students Aid in Work. "They have recently organized a medical students’ committee, among the fourth-year men of the Atlanta Medical College, whose members they use to supplement the work of the two city physicians. These students volunteer for work in the homes of the poor of the city, where it is not always necessary to have a more ex perienced doctor. From this commit tee they hope to develop among the students such appreciation of the need of hospital social service that, in time, a department of medical social service will be established in the Gra dy Hospital.

NEW YORK. Dec. 11. Women stormed the court of Judge Foster to-day in an attempt to attend the trial of Hans Schmidt, the renegade priest accused of murdering Anna Amnuller, and precipitated a near- riot. When the trial began Judge Foster barred the morbid and curious from his room, but more than 100 women appeared to-day and stormed the door in a body. They were ordered away by the bailiff on guard at the door and then they "rushed” him. Several got by the guard, but oth er court attendants rushed to his aid and they were driven out. When they were ejected several of the women became hysterical and had to be led from the building. Schmidt's aged father was spumed by the defendant to-day. The older man. who came from Germany with his daughter to aid his son, wept when he was told that Schmidt would not see him. "I will see my sister, but I don’t want to see my father.” said the prisoner. “Why should I see my father? I don’t care anything about him.” Eater he changed his mind and the father and sister went to Schmidt's cell together. The old man threw' his arms about his son’s neck, and in sobs declared his belief in the pris oner’s innocence. The sister also w'ept and begged her brother to assure her he was in nocent, but he refused to answer.
