I heard of an | American book recently published in which the habits, tastes, desires, Liouses, | clothing, automobiles and ideals of every citizen of a town in the Middle | West were tabulated. This is the sort of looking within themselves that Americans so often do e My second impression is one of simi- | larity rather than difference. When I visited the uptown clinic of the Henry | Street Settlement in New York and saw | the babies there who had had their | tonsils removed, I thought, “They might | be London children!” I was informed some 15 nationalities were represented in that building. but I could not tell one from the other. On the whole they were fairly healthy children. too, al- though I knew they came from slum districts in which it is always & & prise to me to find children surviving Social work in America and at home | have come to mean more and more to modern young women. I am but an example of a great body of young p:n- ple who are striving, sometimes futiis sometimes effectively, to improve con- ditions under which people live, or to | make up in some way for the suffer- ings they undergo. | The normal young woman wanfs 1 do something to better social condi- tions. On the whole, the flapper nas been deceiving the public. She has been hiding her inner feelings uvnder an attitude of gayety. She has much more feeling for humanity than the world realizes. It is her frivolous side she shows, and the onlooker accep's that as her whole character. | Underneath the modern girl's fun- | loving exterior there is an earnestness about the problems of the world. She | may not always find & means of ex- pression, but the interest is imbedded deep. That is why the young girl and the newly married woman, as well as | the mother who has brought up a fam- ily and sent it out into the world. are the logical persons to do social work. | Favors Training for Girls. | 1 think every girl ought to have the training which makes it possible for her to go to work for her living, even if she does not take up the profession for which she is trained. In England it is not usual for a_married woman | to go out to work. The overfull labor | market_makes her competition unwel- | come. But there is always social serv ice. 1t serves to broaden her outlook | and to deepen her interest in the world | around her, as well as to give her a certain amount of extra self-respect. Two kinds of social services are open | today to the women who are free to | enter it—voluntary and professional. | | The voluntary workers make up the | larger class. They form little groups | for specific purposes, working independ- | ently of other groups, and often dupli- | cating the efforts of other groups. It | is these independent groups I have cred- | ited with occasional “patchwork” social service. Lacking a central office to di- rect them with a sweeping program in view, their perfectly good intentions often express themselves in_temporary measures and wasteful procedure. They | waste huge quantities of energy, rare | valuable energy, raising funds for these activities. But in spite of occasional blunders. voluntary social workers are extremely important. They make up the bulk of the workers. Under the directions of | trained, paid social workers they exer- cise enormous power for good, provid- ing they have also that natural talent or social work which is so vital fo uccess in this field, as talent for paint- ing is in the field of art. I do not _believe in charity in the old sense of the world. Women have no | right to go into the slums to visit the poor. saying patronizingly, “I must. help the poor!” I am glad to say this type of social worker is going out of fashion. We regard the poor as friends and not as people through whom we satisfy our | Qesire for a sense of superlority. The war brought about this change, T am | told, although my knowledge of social service before the war springs largely from hearsay. because I was too young then to take any active part. Urges More Trained Workers. With more trained paid workers in the field, this condescending attitude would vanish completely. From my own observation 1 should say in the United States there are more paid social work- ers than in Great Britain, as well as a greater number of private organizations | to administer social welfare. An edu- cated, independent, self-respecting young | woman working for her living among | the poor and wretched is not likely to take a holler-than-thou air with her ! But in both countries there still is a dearth of wom- . |en educated to do professional social servive. ‘The leaders in Great Brtiain are girls who have had such special training as I was having when my father first went | to Downing street, and which I had to | abandon to become his host Re- cently standards for professional social workers have gone up amazingly. In my time I was training to be a health ! visitor, which meant I intended com- pleting some social science course and should learn a_ smattering of nursing Now, to be a health visitor, I should have to be a registered trained nurse. The power of the trained social wor! er is remarkable. What respect motrars have for a uniform! That is becaus it is a certificate of training and expe: rience. 1 remember when I was going around following up cases for my 5chool-care committee in the Bow and Bromley sec- tion of Londoh I sometimes chanced to wear a straight brown cloth coat and | brown hat. ‘Some thought this was a nurse’s uniform. With them, my words carried more weight than with other | mothers who had not happened to see | the brown coat and hat. because when I ! spoke so garbed I had the authority of a professional person. My words, in other clothes, were received as the ad- | vice of a young, inexperienced West End lady. Tact Ts Required by Worker, ! Every social worker must have the talent for making people like her.

But she must not | be sent out to do the human side of the work, as she often is now, because | there is a shortage of well equipped voluntary workers. This is the stumbling block, even in America; there are mnot yet enough women who combine the driving force of being interested in the lives of other people with the training to express that force intelligently. 1 began doing so- cial service when I left Downing Street in 1924. I was only partly trained. be- cause my schooling had been interrupt- ed in December, 1925, when the Labor party came into power. I had had one vear and one term at King's College for Women, the only college in England which gives a combined household and social science course. I became secre- tary of the care committee of an Fast End school. It was my duty to follow up cases for which doctors had recom- mended treatment. I went into this work as a preparation for the London County Council. which even then was my chosen field for social service. The care committee work was worth | while. What jov actually to see a child change mentally and physically because | of some minor operation undertaken | through mv efforts! | I never have felt that one could put right the injustices of society through ! social service alone. In the last an- alysis social work must be a function | of government. It is not enough for & municipality or county or national government merely to encourage wel- fare work. The government must take the responsibility, must put an end to | opportunties for “patchwork” social service, stop all waste of time and energy in the pettv business of raising funds for private charities and see that is used for more constructive work. Education Alone Is Not Sufficient. Once I thought education would teach people how to demand their own | rights. I never have liked the idea of having people spoon-fed by social workers. But the more I see of life in London—and I know the same is true in New York, Chicago and other Amer- with slum districts — the more I realize that education cannot bring about soclal justice by itself. | Good housing has so much to do with | it. The general health of poor people is so affected by the way they live that they cannot benefit by education as fully they should. It is a waste of teachers and of beautiful school buildings if those who use them exist at home in the cramped surroundings I have seen. We must fight the idea that bad housing is inevitable as death and that we have to accept social evils of past generations without making a struggle to root them out.. It is better to find the cause of a soctal and re- move it than to use palliatives to ease the pain How can any girl with wide-open eves and an inner faith in humanity fail to ake her part in preventing and curing social disease, no matter wh: - tion in life?

Wedgewood Benn. secretary of state for India, ‘previously in answering a question by David Lloyd George, Lib- eral leader, had stated the Simon com- mission for Indian statutory reform had | not been consulted with reference to the | passage in the viceroy's statement re- lating to the constitutional status of | India in the empire. | Intended to Set Out Goal. | This passage, the India secretary said, was “intended to set out the goal of | British policy as stated in the declara tion of August, 1917. In view of doubts which have been expressed both in Great, Britain and India regarding In- terpretation to be placed upon the in- | tentions of the British government in | enacting the statute of 1919, the viceroy | was_authorized on behalf of his maj- esty's government to state clearly that in their judgment. it was implicit in the declaration of 1917 that the natural is- sue of India's constitutional progress is the attainment of dominion status.” Benn explained that questions of | policy “Involving changes either in sub- | stance or in time” could not be con- | sidered until the reports of the Simon | commission and the India central com- mission were submitted. Then the gov ernment must consider these matters in consultation with the Indian govern. ment, in the light of available material | and after the meeting of the conferenc: which it is intended to summon. Ambassador on Vacation. MEXICO CITY, November 1 (#).— Ambassador Morrow and his family, ccompanied by Allan Dawson, third secretary of the emba. left yesterday | for a four-day vacation at Acapulco, in the State of Guerrero. - Soalkaps to start an extensive campaign of edu- cation, Secretary Molinet said that the main object of the campaign would be to per- suade Cuban farmers that they must give their attention to diversified farm- ing under modern methods in order to emerge from their present critical sit- uation and in order to place Cuba on a closer self-sustaining basis. Patience to Be Necessary. It is well understood by the grizzled . war veteran that it is going to be a labor of patience to convince the old- time planter that cane cultivation alone is not profitable. Molinet said, with a wry smile, that Cuba has too long been a one-product nation and that no bene- fits will be derived until the Cuban planter is weaned from his fallacious belief that sugar is paramount and that Cuba rules the world market. Cuba has been a one-crop country for nearly a century and must educate her people out of a situation that has become a veritable tradition. Yet within a few years she hopes to have the Cuban planter lay asice cane plant- ing, substituting tractors for oxen- haiiled plows and sow by machine in- stead of by hand. It is a problem and the government well knows it. Secre- tary Molinet expressed it when he said: Clings to Tradition. “Cuba holds fast to its traditions of sugar cane planting and it will effort and strong arguments to get her on the right track to prosperity The agricultural department has 4l- ready inaugurated a campaign for the dissemination of farm news, weather reports, vices. Weekly radio lectures are given on farming and specialists have been sent, into all provinces to aid farmers. A scientific fight is in motion against parasites, bacteria and fungi attacking fruits and vegetables.. Agricultural schools have been established at im- portant farm centers. A weapon for the government is the state of canefield workers. They now earn only about 75 cents a day and Col. Jose Miguel Tarafa, sugar mag- nate, said that the field hands cannot earn even a bare living at this rate. He said that the small wages were a direct result of the low price of sugar and the uncertaintey prevailing in the maarket because of proposed increases in the United States tariff. — .
