RED CROSS SOCIAL
TRAINING PRAISED
Mrs. Roosevelt Calls Course
for Relief Workers "Fine." 7"
Need Younger Persons.

The manner in which the American
Red Cross trains its social workers
was praised by Mrs. Franklin D.
Roosevelt at a meeting of the organi-
zation's National Volunteer Service
Committee yesterday at national head
quarters.
Among the others attending were
Mrs. Woodrow Wilson and Miss Mabel
T. Boardman, chairman of the COM
mittee, who spoke of the thousands Of
persons who had availed themselves
of the Civilian Home Service course
sponsored by the Red Cross-a simpli-
fed training in social work practices
for volunteers who can work under
expert direction of trained social
workers.
There is such a call for social
workers that any training you can give
is very good" Mrs. Roosevelt said.
1T is an added hardship to the relief
client to have to submit to the ques-
tioning of the unframed worker-who
may ask personal questions which the
trained worker would know through
observation. OF course, there are
many who have settled down peace
fully under relief But there are thou
sands of others to whom it is a real
hardship to 60 on relief, and the
questioning and delving into their
private lives is very hard for them.
The training given by the Red
Cross is fine. The people who are now
coming on relief are fine people who
have used every resource of savings
and credit. 1t crucifies their pride and
whips their morale to have to apply.
II the Red Cross can train workers
to observe these things in dealing
with families on relief it will help
Q lot.
Il cannot emphasize too strongly
that the people who are coming on
relief today are people like you and
myself, who never expected to have
to accept relief. They are not poor
worthless creatures, but the finest
people We really have in our country"
Miss Boardman explained other &C.
tivities Of the committee and Mrs
Roosevelt said she was informed of
much of the work that the Red Cross
did so very satisfactorily" and had
many letters of praise about it. She
urged Miss Boardman to draw in more
young workers. Reduce your age
limit" she said.

U. S. PROTESTS
GERMAN LIMIT
ON AUTO TRADE
Drastic Restriction Placed
on American Car
Imports.

b. DfNfd Press
WASHINGTON, Nov. S.-The
German governments drastic limi-
tation of imports of American auto
mobiles may form the basis for an
other vigorous protest by the United
States government, it was indicated
here today.
The order, which on the basis Of
press reports received from Ger
many, is viewed here as another vio-
lation Of the most favored nation"
clause of the German American
commercial treaty, virtually would
exclude American automobiles and
motor trucks from the German
market.
The state department has request
ed the American embassy in Berlin
to make a full study of the restric-
ton order and its probable effect
on imports of American automobiles.
Pending receipt of this report, off,
Gals here declined to discuss their
views.
The German government proposes
to place imports On American auto
mobiles and motor trucks on a
strictly barter basis, compelling
American importers of automobiles
in Germany to export from Ger
many goods equivalent in value to
at least five times the value of each
American car or truck imported.
Unless this order is applied to all
foreign automobiles and motor
trucks, it is regarded here as clear
violation of the most favored ma
ton clause. The German ambas-
sador, DR.. Hans Luther, recently
served formal notice on the state
department that Germany proposes
to abrogate the present commercial
treaties with the United States, eff
fective October, 1895, and to nego-
tiate a new treaty with the most
favored nation clause eliminated.
1t was pointed out, however, thai
the most favored nation clause anc
the present treaty are still in ef'
feet and will remain so until mex
October, and it was indicated the
