And in the year that we call Leap. "tC

We'll, this is what Miss Sophie did

/ those corporations and their affiliated
enterprises. Its charter permits It to
do everything from building railroads
and docks to recognizing foreign
governments. -
On January Is, the new corporation
issued a statement in the name OF
President Charles A.. Stone whiel
shows even more clearly. its imperial
istic purposes, Stone said:
"Dr. Richard P, Strong, the well
known medical expert, who last year
succeeded, in completely preventing
the spread of typhus in Serbia, has
come with the American International
Corporation. He has had a. world
wide experience in dealing with var
ious foreign governments, and has ,es
tablished such friendly relations with
the people with whom he has worked
that his name has become famous
His specific duties will be to assist
in building up the new organization
with the right kind Of young men, and
to follow up the men of the organiza-
ton who are at work in foreign coun-
tries; and also to take up any ques-
lions that may arise with foreign
countries in regard to sanitary and
health conditions, with the purpose OF
being helpful to these people in sucil
matters and establishing friendly re
lations which will be mutually bene-
ficial." ~
Could anything show more clearly
the intent to establish spheres Of IN
fluence, obtain influence or coptrOl
over weak foreign governments, and
thus to launch out on a-campaign Of
commercial and industrial imperial
ism, leading inevitably to govern
mental and military imperialism?
The same announcement tells VI the
election as vice president OF PE'liI
Henry, a well known engineer, "whc
has given much of his time to the in
vestigation and construction of rail
road and other enterprises in South
America" and who knows the en-
cheering possibilities and difficulties
Of that country perhaps as well as
any one in this country"
All very well. But
It leaves a big question for you to
decide:
Is big business to stand on its own
feet and take its chances in these
new foreign enterprises? or,
Is the commercial and industrial

Attention already has been called

finance raids on the natural resources

slightly lower rate and it is on this
basis that the estimate of rate of

that could be saved is really greater
than the total of 100,828 here given.
In California, the infant mortality
rate in Berkeley, a we'll to do suburb
of San Francisco, was ST. per thou

picketing ordinance and government
by the Merchants and Manufacturers
Association prevent the workers from
organizing, and there are many slums
and factories, the rate was 10. Gil
mate in each case cuts down the rate,
but the proportion as between econo-
mic comfort and economic want re-
mains the same.
In New York City, the United States
Public Health Service found that
rmOng garment workers with. annual
earnings Of $685. or more the child
mortality rate was la; while among
garment workers with annual earn
ings of $486 or less, it was 200.
