INVESTING TEN MILLION.
Profeaaor Henry R. Stager, of Co
lumbia Unlvergity. an authority on
economics and social aclcnce, haa tin
denaken to lei! how lie would apend
ten million dollara In Improving aocUl
condltlona.
In these days of organlaad rharlllea
and expert uplifting, we remain almost
aa much at aea about relieving the
poor and working out the problems of
social Juatlce aa we were when no
euch laudable ambition disturbed Ihe
public conscience.
Ten millions of dollars have been
spent many times over In charltlea
and uplift work, but Ihe great riddle
of how to Improve Ihe condition of
those at the bottom of Ihe social seal*
haunts the mind and oppresses the
spirit more than ever. This la not
because nothing la being accomplished
but because, with an Increasing com
prehension of the suffefing and Injus
tice of poverty, there comes an urgent
and unceasing rail to find a way which
will offer some real and permanent
uplift.
Professor Beager le the president of
the American Association for Labor
legislation hut he says that he looka
toward labor legislation, "leas lo cre
ate progress than to establish a found
ation from which progress may suc
ceed.
In Investing the sum of ten million
for thla Ideal, Professor Seager aays
ha would avoid a permanent found
ation and spend the Muni with as much
•peed as Is compatible wllh prudence
and rood judgment. He allows ten
years for spending the sum and would
look for results at tho end of that
time.
"My special reason Tor believing
that much might hr accoinpllahcil In
a few year*," aaya Profi-aiior Kenner,
"la that the United Si»im la fur be
hind Europe In the matter of labor
legtalatlon. We cannot afford to laa.
Wa must catch up, and wo will. But
It will naad a big push, perhaps Just
such as tan million dollars could give."
Tha most expensive and the first
work to whleh he would put out his
millions would be in the education of
public opinion to tha necuaalty for im
mediate action In labor legislation t«
catch up with the progress which has
been made In Europe.
The second sum would be spent In a
thorough study of alt American labor
conditions with a view of adoption
laws which will be especially and pe
culiarly suited to the needs of thla
country so that the error of blindly
following European countries would bo
avoided.
The third atim would go Into work
for uniform enforcement of the laws
which would necessitate a complete
overhauling of our departments of la
bor and Hn organisation of public
opinion to hold administrative officials
up to tha highest degree of efficiency.
Professor Heater elaborates upon
Bine laws:
1. A workmen's compensation law-.
f. Legislation shortening the work
day.
3. An illness Insurance law.
*4. Invalid and old-age Insurance.
8. Provision for widows and or
phans
6 Free public labor bureau*.
7. More severe vagrancy laws.
8. Trade and industrial training in
the schools.
9. Unemployment Insurance.
Undoubtedly, with such lsws enact
ed and enforced, the outlook ami con
dition of the American wage-earner
would be greatly changed. He would

Professor H«ugf*r readily n< «* thftt
th«’ k.rg«-M Hrm of expense In aurh *»

of public opinion.
Htieh laws could never reach the
statute hooks until the public Is
nrotimd to demand them, h* % an.vs. and
tkey would be of little use If an alert
public sentiment did nm hack them
up. It would in* necessary then to
curry on a continuous propaganda ev
erywhere. and the men who would i*e

find their hands more than full.
It Is not llluly tlirat the lump sum

Herald sees them The Thotmisville
Times wants to see South fjeorgla

"We believe in the patriotism and
fairness of the people of the entire
commonwealth." says the Times-En
terprise, "and have confidence in the
result of electing candidates strictly
according to merit. We believe that
many of % our most Important officers
in ihe future will he from South (Jeor

"We have been to several places
where people from Ihe entire state were
congregated, and we have never found
any prejudice against South (Jeorgia,
nor a disposition to discriminate
against a candidate because be hailed

"If the Savannah Press Is moved to
