1t is a real pleasure to speak
for those who have stood by
the cause Of the people and
manifested in very practical
way their support Of just. pro-
gressivc legislation. Certainly,
Mr.. Carlin is one Of these. His
quality has been tested by his
valuable service, especially in
connection with antitrust leg
islation. 1t would seem TO me
little more than justice to him
that his constituents should re-
turn him to the house and thus
express their approval of his
service by which he will be able
to give the country the benefit
of his qualities, more and more
effectively, from month to
month.
(Signed) Woodrow Wilson.

SAVANNAH April Id Ran
dolph Anderson, president OF the
Georgia Senate, has made formal an
no6ncement for Governor, and Will
from this time forward conduct a
vigorous and aggressive campaign for
election.
Mr. Anderson states that he is not

a Democrat. who aspires to devote
his best energies and talents to the
welfare and upbuilding Of his native
State"
He makes plea for peace and
prosperity IN Georgia, and declares
that the circumstance primarily NOV

sition OF Acting Governor for a few
months and naturally believes that ii
his ambition to be Governor ever is
to be achieved, now is the time to
submit the matter to the people.

GRADY s GROWTH
AND ITS NEEDS
POINTEDOUT
DR., SummeraI Prepares State
ment Showing Conditions the
Bond Issue Will Remedy,

DR.. w 3. Summerall superintend-
ent of Grady Hospital, has prepared
a statement showing the growth OF
the hospital work in the last few
years and how that institution mas
become heavily overcrowded This
statement was prepared at the re-
quest Of some of the industria in
surance companies OF Atlanta. who
will incorporate. It in little folder
which they win distribute to their
pollcyholders.
As to the number OF patients treat
ed, DR.. Summerall compares 1908, the
year when he took charge at the hos
pital, with present conditions. In 1908
there were 1,143 white and 762 negro
patients treated in beds, making a to-
tai Of 1905. In 1913 there were 25ls
white and l,637 negro patients treated
in bed making a total Of Abs, more
than double the work OF five years
ago.
In the outdoor clinic in 1908 there
were treated 917 white and 1,223 ne
gro patients, as against 3,940 white
and 1850 negro patients in 1913 max
ing total OF 5000 In 1908 total
OF 5l6S treatments were given In the
outdoor clinic; in 1918 there was a to-
tai of 23,394 treatments, or an in
crease of more than $50 per cent.
How Daily Average Grows.
In 1903 the average daily number
OF patients treated in the hospital was
so. Last year it was 1871. The daily
average for the month of March, 1914,
was 1871 patients. whereas the normal
capacity Of the hospital is only 1856.
In the city only small provision is
made for the isolation and care of
diphtheria and scarlet fever among
the whites
No permanent provision is made
for the isolation and care of measles,
meningitis, whooping cough, cry
sipelas, etc, among either whites or
negroes.
There is no provision for taking
care of colored women in contine-

The wards and rooms in the new
white maternity cases are made

The old negro wards are decayed
and worn out. and totally unfit for

The wards and roms in the new

No Place for Nurses.
The legitimate demand for admls-
sion to the hospital cannot be met
halfway for lack of room
In this hospital, which is the mu-
nicipal hospital and which has been
in operation twenty years, and has
treated $4,000 patients in beds, there
has never been expended one dollar
for providing quarters for nurses. As
a result the hospital now finds it,
self caring for two hundred bed pa
tients per day, with a nursing force
less than forty in the training school
whereas we should have not less
than ninety at this time. These
nurses are quartered In various
parts Of the institution wherever a
bed can be accommodated and We
can md no more space for more
