PROTECTIVE ASSOCIATION
TO MAKE FUNDS APPEAL
Washington Organization's Report
Shows Activities Among
Juveniles.

The Juvenile Protective Association.
which is making ready to enter upon
its fourth year of welfare work, has
the distinction of being the only or
ganization in Washington engaged ex-
clusively in protective work for chill
dren.

made public it will be shown that in
the neighborhood of 500 individual
cases have been handled, that each
presented problem of it's own and
each was investigated and an effort
made to meet the various needs.
Whenever it has been necessary the
association has provided big broth

lead the youngsters. Many boys and
girls have been saved the stigma of

JORDAN is CONVICED
OF CERTAIN CONDITIONS
AFTER TRIP ABROAD

The world and all the treasure
that it holds, lies at the feet OF
America. This is the opinion OF
Edward S. Jordan, president of tbs
Jordan Motor Car Company, Inc
recently returned from TRIP
abroad.
Mr.. Jordan visited many indus
tries. talked with some of the fore
most business men of England and
France, and brings back that mes
sage that opportunity for America
was never so great as now. H.
says:
1--WE, a trifle dizzy on the pros
porous heights on which we stand
deserve tolerance. for scarcely YET
can we believe our eyes.
England, our mother, knows
best what lies within this nation :
power.
She is watching, not enviously
nor impatiently, to see what We
will do with our world opportunity,
Before we can lay claim to dis
tinction as world leaders we must
establish our right by acquiring
that same knowledge which has
made London the commercial cen
ter of the world for generations
past.
I'VE must also face the stern
realities Of the aftermath of war
in our own country. World lead
ership comes first through national
aggregation. Production is the big
feature that faces us today. Each
individual must produce more if
the opportunities that circumstan-
ces has flung in our lap are TO be
realized.
while foreign trade holds many
allurements, domestic markets are
still open to the aggressive manu-
facturer who produces to the maxi
mum and cuts overhead to the
minimum"
