MUST TEACH The
FOREIGNERS ENGLISH

WASHINGTON, D. c., August 16.-
The necessity of teaching the adult
immigrant how to speak English as
soon as possible after his arrival is
emphasized by H. H. Wheaton of the
U. S. Bureau of Education in a report
just made public.
with the adult immigrant desire for
instruction and ability to acquire lang
uage are largely lost" says DR.. Whea-
ton, 'yet inability to speak English is
the most serious barrier to intercourse
between Americans and foreigners.
Furthermore, employers are coming to
see the necessity of teaching their
foreign-born employees the English
language and something of the rules
of safety. Experience shows that j
large proportion of industrial accidents
are due to the fact that foreigners
have not understood the orders of the
foreman. A canvass of many employ
ers of foreign-born workingmen indi-
Gates that a knowledge Of English is
urgently needed This is particularly
true of railroads. steel plants, and
foundries"
In eight of the principal cities of the
United States, according to DR.. Whea-
ton, the number of foreign-born adults
unable to speak English totals over
100000. New York alone has 422,000.
The types of schools adapted to the
education of the immigrant are even

AMBITIONS SAID
To De CONFLICTS

ATLANTA, Ga, Aug. 16.-An inter
esting story concerning the political
careers of two we'll known Georgians
is going the rounds of the capitol gos-
sip. Sometime before the legislature
convened Senator John D. Walker, of
Sparta, remarked to friends that he
would like to sit in the senate presi-
Dental chair. The friend assured Mr..
Walker that he csuld be elected. And
it is well known that the senate pres
idency and speakership of the house is
quick route to the gubernatorial
chair And it is also we'll known that
no real busy man cares for the legisla-
ture unless he has some kind of pol
itical axe to grind.
In the same town of Sparta lives
William H Burwell, the present
speaker OIL the mousse. II Is Sdlu tHdL
Mr.. Walker asked Mr.. Burwell if he
thought he CWalker stood any chance
of becoming president of the senate,
and Mr. Burwell deplied: mo; don't
think so, as the representatives and
senators would hardly elect presiding
officers of the two branches from the
same town and county" Well" says
Mr.. Walker, "how about you getting
out of the way?" To which Mr.. BurNel!
replied: mo; I have enough votes to
get my place, and I'm bound to land
it."
1t remains to be seen what develop
ments will come from the ambitions of
the two Sparta legislators.

PICTURE

Especial to -Recorder.l

ATLANTA, Ga, Aug. 16.-Experts
who Happened to view it recently d.
clare tnat the priceless war pic-ufe 1t
the Grant Park cyclorama, which be-
lcngs to the city of Atlanta, is slowly
rosting from exposure, and will event
ually be rendered valueless unless the
proper steps are taken for its presety-
alton.
The remedy is said to be the building
around it of a securer structure that
will keep out wind, rain and mois
ture.
Though few Atlantans appreciate it,
the cyclorama of the battle Of Atlanta
is one of the greatest of its kind in tbs
country, and while seldom visited By
people who live here, it is seen each
year by hundreds of visitors from other
cities who know its historic and ar
tistic worth.
