THE GEORGIAN AND THE /. S. A.
Editor The Georgian:

Editor The Georgian:
AS a member of the International
Stewards association and until this
year fourth national vice president
and. incidentally. steward of the
Piedmont hotel, this city, want to
thank you not only for myself. but
. in the name Of all those who helped
to make the Culinary Exhibit at the
Piedmont possible, for the space
and notice you gave us on the front
page Of your Surely Newspaper"
on January -.
We appreciate this moreso be
cause no other paper in the city
thought it worth while to pay any
attention to a body of men repre-
senting the l, S. A., men who un-
selfshly are working for the well
fare and benefit of mankind.
The members of the I. S. A. were
instrumental in having passed the
pure food law. They were the men
who introduced the so-called Will
son bill regulating weights. meas
ures and net containers, and the
l. 5. A. is now introducing bill in
congress to bring in meat from the
Argentine Republic free Of duty. in
order to reduce the high cost of Iiv-
ing-not for the benefit of the l. s.
A, but for the benefit Of the public.
The Hearst newspapers are al
ways with the people and nobody
realizes this more than the peop'a.

The immigration bill, which has
come before the senate, does not
recognize this. 1t ought not to be-

This bill says that no man who
can not read or write is fit to be-

slider this from a purely economic
point of view and not at all as a

more defensible.

Charles S. Barrett Would
Make an Ideal Secretary
of Agriculture
Mr.. Wilson, in Making Up His Cabinet Could Do No Rer
Than Select the Head of Farmers Union for This I'm
portant Portfolio

The announced desire of the presdeneec being to select
for his cabinet only thoroughly qualified service under
the administration, but foot loose respect to their
fractional and material aignmens and interests difficult to
how he could make happy choice for agricultural
portfolio than Charles S. Barrett of president of the
National Farmers Union.
Mr. Barrett is practical eminenty successful farmer
He knows the business of farming from the soil the and
back He familiar by years at the head
of the great Union necessities and desires Of
the agricultural interests He knows, AS NO OTHER MAN
CAN KNOW DURING PRESIDENT WILSON'S TERM OF
OFFICE, the rank and file of knows their lit

He of tremendous executive ability. Never before
he assumed the presidency Farmers Union has such an
organization known successfully organized
and effectively promoted He keeps constantly in touch with his
workhere other individual in country so completely
possessed of the farmers confidence and high esteem
Over and above all of that Charles has kept pol
tics out of the organization of which he the has
kept in touch with legislatures and the congress-
matter of but he has eliminated always partisan sug
gestion from the unions endeavor
If Barrett Secretary Of Agriculture he would be
secretary for the farmers frsor politicians never He
would know every the Union the men best qualified to
help him in the work of the department: ne would know
them largely outside Of their politics.
Personally Mr. has been at all times a saunch Demo
On that score nothing more to ask Never how
has he been Extensively partisa-and never partisan at
all IN the handling of his work president of the union
If there is department of the government that surely
ought to be mnimized in its politics. will agreed that
the Department of Agriculture If there department that

other things not calculated to ele-
vate the country.
The exclusion section Of the i'm
migration bill has been eagerly ad-
vocated by certain classes of labor
in the belief that, by reducing the
supply Of workers. it will be easier
to wiring advantages from employ
ers. This attitude is worse than
selfish. 1t is deplorably short sight
ed. The more unsllilled work per-
formed. the greater the demand for
skilled employees. To put it diff
ferently; If there be a dearth of
common labor. fewer superior po-
sitions can be available. The larg-
er the army, the greater the num-
Der Of non commissioned and com
missioned officers necessary. There
must be an adequate supply Of
hewers of wood and drawers Of
water. We can not all do fancy
work. Somebody has to pillow fields,
plant crops, clean stables, mine coal
and iron and copper. roll rails, dig
sewers, sweep the streets, put coal
in cellars and drive numbering vag-
ons
II any industry be deprived Of
its full quota of unskilled labor.
II can not-obviously-e
fun number of skilled employees.
And II activity be thus rorcibly
curtailed, profits must diminish,
treasures must sutherland not
even solomon could pay out in
wages more than he had first taken
in
Don't deny to a healthy, honest
laborer the right to take part in
building up this young country
simply because he has spent his
boyhood days in the field or the
workshop and not in the school
room. 1t is American. 1t is
not humane And it is not good
business
