Help for the Poor.

Never In the history OF the city. probably, was
there so much suffering on the part of the poor
as at this time The number of people out Of
employment is unprecedented. the rigor of the
weather Is beyond that known for years, and at
the same time there never was so little organ

ing NJ this season. We, therefore, heartily
second the earnest appeal of a philanthropc
citizen. in another column, for the immediate
organization OF a relief association on a scale
equal 10 the emergency. 1t Is suggested that
there Is the nucleus OF such an organization
already in existence in the shape OF the ..Wash-
ingtOn Aid society," of which Hon H9ratiO
King i. president. and Lewis J. Davis treasurer.
These gentlemen have the confidence Of the
community, and no doubt il the undertaking is
started under their care the money can be
speedily raised 10 set the good work of charity
in active motion. But whatever Is done, must
be done At once. The amount of suffering Is
APPALLING. People are absolutely dying from
cold and starvation in our midst, while the ben
eyOlent who would willingly aid them are un-
able 10 do so efectually for want of an organ
lied thoroughly equipped agency of relief.

The registration OF third-claSS matter is rap
idly attaining large proportions, and becoming
deSeryedly popular with the business commu-
nifty. As an evidence OF this, at the New York
post Office alone during the two weeks ended
December p, 1924 packages were forwarded
realizing si62. 40 in fees, exclusive of the post
age. The number of registered letters mailed
during the same period at that Office was 9,O12
IL thus appeaus that at this early date the num-
Der OF registered packages amounts to more
than one-thlrd OF the entire registry business
The registration OF third-clas5 matter has been
in operation less than three months, while the
registry system for letters has been in opera
ton for nearly twenty years. 1t Is estimated
al the Post Office department that the revenue
from the registry fees OF third-ciass matter
will amount 70 100000 during the next fiscal
year.
