Scnator Simmons Says North Carolina
Could At Once Give Employment
TO 10000 LabOrers.
washington Post


1--WE could use for immediate EN-
ployment in my State as official re-
ports show, as many as 10000 labor
ers," said Hon. f. M Simmons, United
States Senator from North Carolina.
at the Ebbitt House.
Il doubt very much whether this
army of wage earnerS would satisfy
the urgent demand for help that comes
from the farm, the factory, the lum-
Der caps, the railroads, and a dozen
other sources, In every one of the
ninety-seVen counties of the State the
cry for men goes up and is unanSWer-
ed. 1t is not because our popula-
ton has diminished, for it has grown
at a healthy rate, but the shortage OF
labor arises from changed conditions
Twenty years ago the people of North
Carolina and of other Southern States
We're busy only in one or two ways;
today they are working in many diff
ferent directions. Industries have
splnng up and multiplied, and new
emplOyments have been created. A
class Of our white population has left
the farms to work in the cotton mills,
the whole industrial system has been
changed.
1.-The hope of the South at this mo-
ment appears to lie in getting Euro
pean immigration. Heretofore the
thrifty and industrious homeseekers
from the Old World have turned theil
backs on the South but henceforth an
effort is going to be made to attract
the Woodworking SWedes, NorWegian&,
Danes, Firms, and other North of Eu-
rope immigrants to the States that lie
south of the Potomac. In this direc>
ton lies not only the solution of the
Southern labor problem, but the fu-
ture well being Cf our section is bound
up in it.
"At present the blacks. refusing alb
solutely to work for day wages in the
fields, constitute the bulk of our ten
ant farmers. The scope of their physi-
cal and mental efforts is limited we
might say, to cotton production. Cat
tie given to them will be mostly al
lowed to starVe, and they refuse to
raise enough corn to fatten hogs. The
agricultural resources of the rich re,
gion can never be developed in this
way, and that is why those who have
given study to this subject know thai
the bringing i'm of white immigrants
who understand how to produce other
things than cotton is vital to South
err prosperity"

THE CAMPAIGN WAGED AGAINST
CONSUMPTION IN VERMONT.
OE'rom the Rntlnnd NeMsl

The work of the Vermont tuberculosis
commission has been mapped out and
tn" campaign against "thc great white
plague will be made Systematically and
thoroughly in every town of the STATE
within tho ensuing two years The com
missioncrs arc to be universally COM
n'ud"s for their zeal in the good cause.
1t is u most encouraging fact that the
death rate of consumptivcs in Vermont
is less than in any other New England
state and Is below the average of all the
states in the Union, but still there is :,
great work to &c done in this common
wealth before the dread malady is CT
foctivcly stamped out.
The News has already referred to the
article in McClure's Magazine for Jan
uary written by Samuel Hopkins Adams
on "Why Tuberculosis Is Not Prevent
cd" Mr.. Adams takes the position that
the only serious source of infection is
| by the sputum coughcd up by the con-
sumptive. and that tuberculosis can be
entirely cradicatcd It can bc made as
rare a malady as smallpoX and can be
better controlled.
| Modern science can relieve present con-
ditions. can entirely cure them, by sim
! Pic means Of cleanliness, fresh air, sun
light and regular habits. In fact. "a trcm-
endous reduction of the death rate from
tuberculosis has in some places already
been nadc-in New York over 10 per
cent in 10 years: in Boston ~ per cent. in
II years
The most immediate problem in tho
lisht is the proper disposition of tho
helpless consumptvc Tho United states
is almost without proper sanitar!a for
tho isolation Of hopeless cnecs. T. is
shown that no city, excepting New York
Cincinnati and Baltimore. has accommo-
dations for one-twcntieth Of its con-
SumptiNcs actually perishing for the lack
of tho simplest treatment This dis
graceful condition will remain until ado
quate measures are taken for building
of proper sanitaria.
Knowledge OF conditions is the second
requisite in this war against tubcrcu-
losis. Every careless consumptive creates
a center of infection which should be
promptly reported and clcansed And it.
is almost incredible that the chief hin
drance to the compulsory registration
of cases comes from largo class Of tho
medical profession themselves. according
Ia Mr.. Adams. So much So that in
Chicago, for instance. the board Of health
has rejected physicians reports concern
Ing causes Of death as less trustworthy
than those OF the undertakers. Some Of
our legislators arc taking heed of this
criminal neglect; but much too slowly.
Mr. Adams. in a conclusion with which
we heartily agree, urges every citizen
10 lend his countonanco to the education
of the public. tho appropriation Of sums
for Sanltarr, and tire enactment and en-
iorcemont of wise legislation
It is disgrace to the nation that q
disease as horrible and prcventablc as
tuberculosis should not he stamped out.
