Afsernoon sessien.


 But little business of interest was enacted at the session of the State Federation of Womens Clubs this afternoon. The principal business of the session grew out of the report of the committee on school improvement, of which Mrs. J. D .Matlock of Firm inghanh is chairman. This report ad- vocated better schools and school sys- tems throughout the state, 50 that even better results than a present would result from them, and with this end in view the committee was work ing hard and during the next year ex. pected to accomplish great good in this direction.
 In the report of the committee, Mrs. Matlock stated that from several clubs the committee has been pledged some of money amounting to s1o5. The com nittee hoped this amount would be added to when the delegates to the present convention returned to their homes and made their report upon the work of this committee, and expected that the fund already pledged would grow about $200 more. The money will be used next year as prizes, and VIII be given to the county associations making the best reports and the highest averages The plan is deemed a wise one by the majority of the delegates,a and 1t will receive the endorsement and hearty, support of the majority of the clubs composing the Federation. The ma jority of the time of the Federation this afternoon was taken LID in the hearing of the reports from many com mittees. All these reports were list ened to most attentiveiy and they showed that during the past year that the committees had iabored earnestly upon the task which had been assign ed them.
 Among the delegates. considerable interest Is being taken in the annual election of officers which win take place tomorrow afternoon. While noth- ing is certain, 1t is generally believed that Mrs. Phares Coleman of Montgom- cry, the present First Vice President of she Federation. will be elevated to the Presidency. Who the other off, oers of the Federation win be is only matter of guess work as yet. Imme- diately after the new officers are elect ed tomorrow, they will be installed, and then the Federation will adjourn.

work is not in a more advanced condi-
ton, while the others complain that it has
been rushed with such haste that there
has been insufficient preparation for the
hygiene and comfort of the employees.
As matter of fact neither criticism is
just. 1t would have been impossible to
so quicker than the commission has
gone, for such quickness would have
meant insufficient preparation. On the
other hand. to refuse to do anything un-
til every possible future contingency had
been met would have caused wholly un-
warranted delay. The right course to
follow was exactly the course which has
been followed Every reasonable prepara-
ton was made in advance, the hygienic

other hand there has been no timid re-

PRESIDENT ON PANAMA

this honest comnlairt was tvnical of
what occurred when Investigated most
of the other honest complaints made to
me. That is. where the complaints
were not made wantonly or malicious
ly, they almost always proved due to
failure to appreciate the fact that
time was necessary in the creation
and completion of this. titanic work in
tropic wilderness. 1t is impossible
to avoid some mistakes in building
giant canal through jungle-covered
mountains and swamps. while at the
same time sanitating tropfc cities, and
providing for the feeding and general
care of from 10000 to 10000 workers.
The complaints brought to me. either
of insufficient provision in caring for
some of the laborers, or of failure to
finish the pavements of Colon, or of
failure to supply water or of failure
to build wooden sidewalks for the use
sof the laborers in the rainy season,
on investigation proved, almost with

utter inability of the commission to do
everything at once.
Unjust Criticism. /,
Care and forethought have been exer-
ciSed by the commission, and nothing has
reelected more credit upon theme than
their refusal either to go ahead too fast
or to be deferred by the fear of criticism
from not going ahead fast enough. 1t is
curious to note the fact that many of
the most severe critics of the commission
criticise them for precisely opposite rea-
sons, some complaining bitterly that the

American workingman in the United
States has no concern whatever in the
question as to whether the rough work
on the isthmus. which is performed by
aliens in any event, is done by aliens
from one country with a black skin
or by aliens from another country
with yellow skin. Our business is
to dig the canal as efficiently and as
quickly as possible: provided always
that nothing is done that is inhumane
to any laborers, and nothing that in
terferfS with. the wages of or lowers
the standard of living OF our own
workmen- Having in view this prin-
ciple, I have arranged to try several
thousand Chinese laborers- This is de-
sirable both because we must try to
find out what laborers are most eff
cient. and. furthermore, because we
should not leave ourselves at the
mercy OF any one type of foreign
labor. At present the great bulk of
the unskilled labor on the istIinus is
done by West India negroes. chiefly
from Jamaica, Barbados, and the other
English possessions. One of the gov
ernors of the lands in question has
shown an unfried1y disposition to our
work and has thrown obstacles in the
way OF our getting the labor needed:
and IT Is highly undesirable f0 give
any outsiders the impression, however
III founded, that they are indispensa-
bic and can dictate terms to us.
The West India laborers are fairly.
but only fairly, satisfactory. Some OF
the men do very wei indeed: the bet-
