Hoe Foreign Trade AJJects
Georgia EUery Interest

Do we realize how much is involved for
the prosperity of the Nation, and OF the
South particularly i'll the fact that America
exports for the fiscal year lately ended to-
tailed nearly seven billion dollars, and in the
promise that for the coming tWelvemonth
this unexampled record bids fair to go still
higher? We feel rather vaguely that this
spells a thriving business for certain large
mercantile and manufacturing concerns, but
do we rightly appreciate it's significance to
the rank and file?
The Importance of a f1ourishing export
trade is more definitely gagged when we
come to think how matters would stand with
us if this trade should languish and die.
The South had painfully instructive bit OF
experience in the autumn and winter OF
1874. Following the outbreak of the great
war and the diversion of merchant tonnage
| to military service. we found ourselves with
almost no foreign market for one Of the big
| gest cotton crops ever produced. The de-
pressing effect was felt through all chan
nels of business, the largest as well as the
least, inland as we'll as coast. Disturbance
and depression may be expected in every
instance where exports fail to take the sur
plus which we produce above our home
needs. Upon the vigor Of foreign trade de-
pend the steady and profitable employment
of labor, the maintenance of good prices for
farm staples, the expansion of industry, the
fruitful investment OF capital and the
life.
It is of the utmost Importance, therefore,
that the South encourage all we'll considered
efforts to promote her foreign trade oppor-
tunities. Georgia, for example, in co-opera-
ton with the Carolinas and Florida should
give wholehearted aid to the plans for de-
veloping the ports Of the South Atlantic
Upon these outlets and upon an adequate
merchant marine, controlled by Southeast
ern interests, the future of our industry and
commerce materially depends. This is not
a question Of theory; it is a question of
practical and immediate concern to every
business man and every farmer of Georgia
and her neighbor States.
The man who celebrated the good old
summer time is getting his celebration now.
Willard has this consolation -. Sooner or
later Dempsey will get his.

I am Bourgeois. Hopelessly, natural born,

1t is that the rampant Bolshevik hate

COST OF "CAPITOL MOVING

(The Thomasville Times Enterprise
To remove the capitol will entail an ex-
pense that will not be commensurate with
the good it will do. Macon isn't any nearer
the majority of the people Of Georgia than
is Atlanta, perhaps not as near. 1t has GER
tanly no distinctive qualities that would be
worthy Of argument against Atlanta.
To spend a few million dollars is all right,
if it is necessary. But in this instance it
isn't and it will take more than geogra-
phical location to prove it, The taxpayers of
Georgia are interested in this proposal as are
the citizens of the city of Macon. The tax
payers are going to pay the bills and the
city of Macon reap the profit.
Georgia is not going to be swerved from
common sense by any desire to favor Macon.
We wouldn't object to it's being moved to
Macon if there was any real necessity for 1t
or if it was good sane financial policy to do it,

What Gets Highq0ay Money.

"The Georgia way of raising road money"
as the Birmingham Ledger calls it, appeals
strongly to our Alabama neighbors. Com
menting on Chatham county's recent cleo
tion in which the voters authorized bond
issue of two and a halt million dollars for
highways the Ledger dwells upon the fact
that prior to the call for the election, plans
and specifications were submitted and actual
bids were asked so that the people in ap-
proving the issue knew the exact number
of miles they were to get for the money, and
the cost and character of the construction
1t may be pertinently added that the peo-
pie knew also that the work would be done
under the best engineering supervision and
in accordance with plan broadly designed
and capable of development to meet the
futures widening needs. It is assurance
like this that persuades Georgia counties to
vote road bonds so freely. A decade ago it
would have been impossible to have secured
the tax-paying public's Endorsement for these
many millions of highway expenditures not
that the need of good roads was then less
urgent but because the voters we've uncer-
tain as to the extent and character of the

SOCIAL WORKERS
BY H. Addiugton Bruce

NF the many occupations now open to
I J women that of social worker is of Spe-
clai importance. And women are more
and more f1ocking into it, as the need for
social work among the poor and unfortunate of
our great cities is increasingly appreciated
Unhappily, not all who decide to become
social workers ask themselves the question,
Gam really fitted to do social work." Not
all, for that matter, have any clear idea of the
demands social work will make on them.
Some seem to think that they need be moth
ing more than friendly visitors" Others, that
their main business will be to separate the
worthy from the unworthy as regards the dis
penSing of charity.
Actually, the business of the social workers
is to collaborate actively in all forms of per-
sonal reconstruction.
The social worker has to deal with the
mentally weak, the morally diseased, the phySi-
cally ailing, the unemployed and perhaps the
unemployabe. Daily her work brings her into
contact with human nature in the rough and
with human conduct in some of its most regret
table phases
She has TO help teachers get better results
from the children of the SumS. In a most
practical way she has to help doctors spread
the gospel of right living. She has to help
judges and criminologiStS determine the respoS-
bility of individual wrongdoers.
Which means that the social Worke. has to
enter slum homes neither as mere sentiment
taliSt nor as lynx-eyed Sleuth, but as a we'll
framed ana wisely sympathetic architect OF the
handicapped.
She must have certain grounding in med-
cal knowledge She must be student of pSy-
chology, particularly abnormal psychology. And
she must have the benign federation which
knowledge of medicine and psychology should
always bring.
"The social worker" Dr.. Abraham MyerSon
has aptly observed, "needs above all things the
idea that insanity, crime failure all have their
seeds in her, that normal and abnormal are
distinctions applied to extremes of quantitative
difference.
"Such an idea binds together social worker
and patient with the bonds of fellowship and
makes for sympathy and tact on the one side
and willingness to be helped on the other"
Also:
"The prude must keep away from social
work One must be able to face the objection
able without qualm or prejudice The essence
of prudery is SqueamiShneSS of fact, and this
is the crime of crimes in asocial worker"
Nowadays there institutions where pros
pective social workers may be properly trained
for the varied and complex tasks they will have
to undertake. should advise all who think of
going into social service to seek such training
and prepare for their calling with the zeal
shown by the lawyer, DOCTOR or engineer in
preparing for his.
