is a bit older. big results will be seen throughout the length and breadth of this district.
 In speaking of what the association has accomplished so far, pr. Newfield said in the course of a conversation l had with him recently:
 "A brief summary of what the Associa- ton of Social Workers has done since it's organization a year or more ago may be condensed into a few words. In the first place, we did not organize in order that we might pass judgment upon all sorts of questions. As we found at an early date that it was undesirable to have subjects introduced to the general meeting, and snapshot opinions taken, so we referred all such matters to the executive com mittee, which consists of the officers and four other members. That committee in- troduces all resolutions which are to be acted upon by the association As a re- suit the association has aided in a num- Der of very desirable things"
 Will you kindly recount some of them?" I requested.
 Among other things that the associa- ton has done" said Dr. Newfield, "has been the aid it has given in reducing the hours of newsboys' work.
 'It has made move to the appointment of a vice commission. "It has assisted in the abolition of the vice district
 'It took a large share in reviving the playground association
 Tt took steps toward the formation of a commission on negro welfare for this city.
 Tt organized and entertained the first meeting of the Alabama Sociological congress.
 Tt obtained recognition in the dihection of eliminating the loan shark evil. Tt assisted in the endeavor to secure rest rooms for girls in the different office buildings "It assisted through Mrs. Nelson An drews in the formation of a Negro Boys club.
 Tt commenced a movement for estab- fishing an auxiliary association for ne- groes to cooperate with us in social service.
