RAILROAD
WILL HANDLE BIC
Skinner TRAFFIC

Atlanta, January 19-How a great
railroad and great city will handle
the greatest convention crowd that
ever assembled in one week in any city
in America is the problem which is
confronting Atlanta and the Southern
railway in Connection with the coming
annual national gathering of the Shrin-
ers in May.
Atlanta is working on the problem
because she will have to entertain ami
feed over 10000 people a visiting
crowd larger than the city's whole to-
tai adult male population, while the
Southern Railway is considering it in
the light of the fact that the bulk of all
that travel from every part of the coun-
try will converge into the Southern and
be handled into Atlanta over that line
The extent of what this movement
means may be gathered from the fact,
that practically all the railroads in the
United States are expecting to use all
their extra available cars to handle the
movement. Most of the eastern travel
will roll into the Terminal Station OF
Southern rails, while the Transconti-
mental lines bring the big delegations
from the far west will feed into the
Southern road at Vicksburg, Memphis
and ST. Louis gateways; the middle
west and Canada will strike the same
road at Cincinnati.
The railroads in every part of the
country have offered the lowest rates
ever accorded for such a gathering.

IS NOW
MODERN MOLOCH

Atlatna, January 19.-Atlanta is pic
tured as a sort OF modern Moloch to
which hundreds of infants lives are
sacrificed each year, through bad milk
and sanitary conditions, in a statement
just made by Dr.rg. ?. Kennedy, head
of the city health department, insisting
that council must do something to stop
unnecessary infant mortality
DR.. Kennedy makes the startling
statement that by appropriating mere
ly 81 800 annually, to add two nurses to
his department, twenty per cent of the
babies who die every year in Atlanta
could be saved.
That such proportion of infants die
simply through failure of the city 10
provide proper sanitary safeguards is
such shocking state of affairs that
council may take some special action Il
the necessary appropriation is not
forthcoming from the regular channels.
While the climate and general health
and mortality statistics all show At
lanta to be one of the healthiest cities
in the world, the infant mortality death
rate is unreasonably large. Statistics
just completed show that during 1913
POI white babies and 255 negro babies
under two years of age died in Atlanta
This is a slight increase over 1912 but
the statistics set forth that while 2.503
babies were born in 1912 there were
1893 born in 1913, so that the situa,
ton at any rate is not growing any
worse.
Our department is handicapped in
its work" DR.. Kennedy declares. eve
need child welfare department as an
adjunct to the health department. If
we could employ two trained nurses to
visit the home every time a birth is re-
ported, and show people how to treat
their babies, we could save twenty per
cent of the infants who die in Atlanta
