Of the possibilities OF mutton, which

WOMAN SUFFRAGE AND
THE NEGRO QUESTION

State Senator T. H. Parker dished
out to the upper body of our legisla-
ture another order of anti-suffrage
re-hash this week, we'll garnished with
metaphors and we'll seasoned with the
usual blood and thunder. The pero-
ration was the hackneyed plea of
don't tear down our women from the
pedestal and force them to meet the
negro woman as equal at the polls"
Senator Parker did not crate on
the fact that as far as voting is con-
cerned, the. woman on the pedestal
is now only an equal of the negro
woman, and is technically the inferior
in rights and privileges to the negro
man. He did not explain how it was
that by making sex no barrier to the
ballot, it would be possible for the
negro to gain any more power than
he has at present What difference
does it make whether no citizen is
forbidden the ballot on grounds of
trace, color, previous of servitude, or
sex" or only on the first three
gounds?
The capital city of Washington has
been the scene of horrible series of
negro outrages and race riots for the
past several days. Nobody votes in
Washington, neither men nor women.
The Washington police could not or
would not handle the situation in
way to insure safety to the women of
the city nor to any one else. Per
haps if the city administration de-
pended on the vote of the citizenry
of both sexes for it's tenure of office,
the city police force would have
proved more efficient.
The "negro vote" proposition is
simply a DOGGY man raised by the OPP
ponents of woman suffrage with the
intention of frightening more timid
legislators into voting against the
woman suffrage amendment. AS for
states rights, the "antis" are making
a mountain of a mole hill, and prov
ing themselves highly inconsistent. If
national prohibition is no violation of
states rights, why is national woman
suffrage?
We would hate to see the women
of Georgia disenfranchised and trust
ing to only an indirect personal infiu-
ence on legislation for their own le-
gal protection, while their sisters in
other states are casting vote and
taking a part in the government of
the country. 1t seems very unfair.
The "antis" say that the women of
Georgia are unprepared for the bal
lot. Do they mean that the women
of Georgia are mental interiors OF
women of other states? We hope
not.-Fitzgerald Leader-Enterprise.

BETTER sIREs, BETTER STOCK

This is the slogan of national
better livestock crusade, to get &C
lively in motion October l, that is
announced by the United States De-
partment of Agriculture, working IN
cooperation with the State agricul-
tural colleges and other agencies in
terested in livestock Improvement
The campaign looks forward to the
future food needs of this country's
increasing population and results
from long and careful observation of
the livestock industry in this country,
and was planned after extensive con-
sultation with specialists and breed
ers. The plan is to hasten the re-
placement of the multitude of scrub
domestic animals in the United States
with pure-bred or high-grade stock,
and also to improve the quality of
pure breds themselves. The goal in
view is greater efficiency in produc-
ton.
The campaign will be the first or
ganized crusade in large country to
improve all livestock simultaneously.
1t will interfere in no way with any
work in livestock Improvements now
being conducted, but makes all the
work more definite and effective by

BUREAU OF PUBLIC
HEALTH NURSING
Intelligent Nurses Needed to Keep
the People From Sickness as Well
as Nurse the Sick

Women have always concerned
themselves with problems of health
and sickness.
In the average family, mother is
the ''health officer" ready to bind up
a cue finger, administer the necessa-
ry remedies for simple ailments, and
firm to impress the necessity for pre-
ventive measures, such as rubbers and
umbrellas.
At school, women-teachers and
school nurses-prove that health can
be taught, and link together the home
and the school in the effort to pre-
vent or correct the physical defects
which the school doctor points out.
The touch of the trained nurse,
with it's power to soothe and to heal,
is second in it's comfort in sickness
only to the trained eye and mind of
the doctor. To great masses of peo-
pie, the visiting or public health
nurse, is constant friend and advisor
in health and an immediate and
mately in touch with the family and
the home than any other agent of
health. More and more, the benefits
of medical science are being taken to
the individual man, woman and child
by women, either as visiting, child
hygiene, school, tuberculosis, or in
dustrial nurses.
Yet, some women touch the prob
lem of public health from all its an
giles, governments have been slow to
recognize their importance in the
new national health programs which
have come as part of the preparation
for reconstruction. England is now
to have for the first time ministry
of health, cabinet Office on par
with the great offices of war, finance
and foreign affairs. But the propo-
sal to make a woman assistant secre-
tary of health was defeated.
In America, however, signs are not

THE BETTER WAY

Much discussion is heard nowadays
about the necessity for better SAM
tary inspection Of food stores in
Cairo. We are heartily in favor of
the systematic inspection of all places
from which human food is sold to
the public. The utmost of proven
ton along this line is not too much
where the health Of the public is at
stake. But what Cairo needs more
than anything else along that line is
morale-both as regards the retailer
and also the consumer. What incen-
tive is there to the man who is SELL
ing these things to the public to take
precaution to keep them in a clean
and sanitary manner so long as the
public does not care and buys with
avidity the products that have been
covered with street dust and flies
with never a question. Cairo shop
pers can soon bring about town of
sanitary stores if they will simply re-
fuse to buy the products that have
been improperly exposed to contami-
nation.
And on the other hand the retail
ers have it in their power to soon
bring about the needed improvement.
The unsanitary shop can sell now be-
cause as matter of fact there are
practically no other sort. Let one
or two of our places equip themselves
to give the people food that they can
be assured is absolutely clean and
it will not be long until they will
have the best of the trade or their
competitor will be forced to also put
his place on the same basis.
We trust that it will not be neces-
sary for Cairo to wait on the compul-
sorry measures of a Sanitary 1nspec-
tor to insure we'll kept grovery stores
and meat markets.
We stand ready to give a full
share of publicity to the store that
installs a really o@ and out sanitary
system of hadling food products

lacking that we may take more rea-
sonable and more just attitude
point of view, Bills creating a secre-
tary of health, to head a new nation
al department of health, have been in
troduced to both the Senate and the
House. Congressman McDuffie of
Alabama, according to a letter ad-
dressed to the National Organization
for Public Health Nursing, plans to
include in his bill provision for a
bureau of public health nursing,
headed by woman chief, a trained
public health nurse. Senator Owen
of Oklahoma, who has introduced
into the Senate bill similar in its
provisions, has also declared that he
is emphatically in favor of the in
clusion of a subdivision of Public
Health Nursing, headed BY nurse
under the secretary of health. Sena-
tor France of Maryland, to whose
committee on public health and quar-
antine Senator Owens bill has been
referred, has stated his intention to
urge either bureau of public health
nursing, or woman assistant to the
Secretary of Health.
Such a national bureau of public
health nursing would be invaluable
in promoting public health nursing
through the country, and in encourag
ing high standards in the work done
in each local community. 1t would
be able to assist states, counties or
cities whenever they desire it, in or
ganizing public health nursing sys-
TENS, conducting, through the nurses,
educational campaigns in hygiene,
sanitation and simple home care of
sickness. In case of a national cpl
demic, the federal government would
be able, were such bureau estab-
lished, to send forces of nurses, as
we'll as doctors, to the spot where the
disease was raging.
Best of all, however, such action
would give to nurses the kind of re-
cognition for service performed which
they, in common with mothers and
teachers and the millions of other
women who work quietly and effect
lively in all corners of our land, most
desire-the opportunity for a great
er and more far-reaching service.
