CHILD WELFARE WORK
NEW DEPARTMENT GETTING UN-
DER WAY.

Atlanta, Aug. 26.-Unusual interest
is being felt here in the beginning of
active work by the department of
welfare IN the state health board, and
in the coming of DR.. Hiram Byrd of
Miami, Fla, who, as already announc-
ed in the papers, will be in charge Of
this new work
III Byrd is looked upon university
as the man for the place. He is recog-
niZed leader in the work Of health
conservation among children. This
was first shown in the Inauguration by
hi mof a complete new scheme of
school inspection and follow up work
in four counties in Florida.
His work here was such as to be
called to the attention of the govern.
ment and he was summoned to Wash.

OF 1t stood out far over all else.
The regretable thing about it was the
fact that the admiral was speaking
only in an informal way and had none
of the real force represented in the
government he spoke for.
When the whole thing Is wound
up and the discussion of the ad-
miral's informal act is ended, many
more people will be ready TO approve
what the officer did, although they
will know he exceeded his authority,

NOBODY WANTS HIM

Trying the kaiser for inaugurating
the war is appealing less and less to
var'oL people among the allies as
the war is left behind. During hostli-
ties, when the German war lords were
made TO appear in the role of super
men by a crafty propaganda, the
kaiser was the symbol of the enemy,
in the minds of the allies.
II the popular imagination he was
a blood-thirsty figure stalking back
and forth across Europe directing
the movements of vast. brutal armies.
To have captured the kaiser during
the war would have been the greatest
feat imaginable.
ITO get the kaiser" was the slogan
of the American doughboy in the
days of recruiting, and a. song writer
or vaudeville artist, to be sure of
making hit with patriotic audiences
worked the sentiment over time.
But now that they have the kaiser
or at least have him in safe keeping
where they can lay hands on him at
any time, they don't know what to
do with him, and the popular major
ity perhaps cares little what is done
with him. Personally, he is a past is
sue with the allied people. AS bug
aboo he no longer exists.
And among many leading thinkers
and statesmen of the allied countries,
there is growing aversion to parti-
cipating in the trial of the former
emperor for fear of the precedent il
would set. A year ago the prospect
| of bringing The kaiser to London fol
early trial would have caused de-
monstrations IN England and allied
countries. Now an influential element
of British lords opposes bringing hin
to London. Belgium has already in
dicated she does not want him, an(
Japan has just shown inclination
against taking any part in this tria
| Americans, while they generally be
| lieve he should be punished, have
had comparatively little to say about
the matter lately.
So it begins to look as though pro
sectution of the kaiser may actually
become a disagreeable duty rather
| than the event SO eagerly looked for

| justice For the kaiser. who used tC
indulge his vanity to an extrem

AN mNFoRMAL" WARNING

That was a strange sort of note to
Turkey from Admiral Bristol, he
American officer i'll charge of naval
affairs in Turkey for the United Stat
es. Ii certainly was warning. We have
read of Armenian massacres and
Turk atrocities as long back as we
can remember. They are still going
on with great ierocity, il we are to
believe the statements that are made
by various missions representing this
country in Turkey.
There will be time and place TO
consider the lack of displomacy in
Admiral Bristol. This may give the
officer bit of trouble. He took it
upon himself To warm Turkey that
the Armenian massacres must stop
and he did so in the name of the
United States in blunt, plain language
Language that any Turk might ur-
derstand The Turks did under
stand so well that they complained to
England and France hat the United
States was making threats at them
without having even mandate over
the country. a thing which the said
United States for some reason had
chosen no to accept.
