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 i *At fuller flcv«Un|»turrit with gre*at*r security Anri nhort*r hour* J»n<t wo think the t«»n million dollara an In* vrat*?<J would bring a handsome re ward.

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 called to direct siuh a work would find their hands more than full. It Is not llluly tlirat the lump sum of fen million dollars will/ ever be sKfti to such hii und« nuking. toil noun thing quite as wonderful might take place. Public opinion may In a f**w short years get this education without having It payed for In one magnificent gift, The public conscience Is awakening \erv sharply to the need for mors just nnd more comforts hie soi Ist condi tions We ar«* growing conscious of human kinships and collective respon sibilities very rapidly. These great ideals and Impelling emotions have the force of a contagion, the w«»rhl gets them In a rush, they spread from man to man and from nation to m«tlon The time Is not far off before Profes sor Heager's dream will come true, ism far as the necessary legislation Is con cerned. CREED OF THOMABVILLE TIMES. The Thomasvllle Times-Enterprise sees things very much i»« The Augusta Herald sees them The Thotmisville Times wants to see South fjeorgla coma In for Its Just deserts but Is "op posed to any effort to divide up the offices between South (Jeorgia. North Georgia, Kant Georgia, West Georgia, of Middle Georgia, according to popu lation. wealth, or any other yard stick. "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 gia merely because we have the talent and the people of the state will recog nise it. "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 from South Georgia. "If the Savannah Press Is moved to support a candidate merely because he Is from South Georgia w«* hope it will at least have (he good taste to give his fitness, and not his location, as the reason why it wants his elec tion." j " Ip CHAPTER TWENTY.
