To the Editor: We all know that times
are hard and through the lack OF en-
ployment much poverty and distress ex-
lists In our midst, and while giving credit
for kindly. sympathetic feeling on the
part Of the well-to-do section OF our citi-
zens, that sympathy does not result in
help to their less fortunate brothers.
believe, owing to the lack OF ready
mode Of rendering aid without 1t ASSUME
ing the garb OF charity, distasteful alike
to the giver and recipient. My purpose.
sir. in writing this letter is TO suggest
way by which patriotic Americans can
help their poorer neighbors to many a
comfortable mead without taxing their
energies or their pockets. and my plan
Is that alI who have their laundry work
done by Chinese should In future give 1t
to their impoverished neighbors. But the
difficulty arises Of finding out who the
parties are in our particular locality In
distress. It can be found out in this
way: Let all those now fostering the pig
tailed Mongolians register their name
and address with the secretary of the
Bureau Of Charities or with Labor Conn
missioner Lamb. and let all those who
are anxious to earn q little to feed their
furnishing families make application to
those gentlemen, who will. after ascer-
tanning their address. give them the
names OF those kind persons near their
homes who are willing to have their
weekly wash done by white labor. and
thus hundreds Of dollars weekly viii be
diverted into better channel than en-
abiing the pagan alien to hoard large
sums of money TO take with him out OF
the country. to whose prosperity he has
contributed so little. II this suggestion
Is acted on people In comfortable cir
cumstances and with kindly hearts win
thus be enabled In an inoffensive way TO
help their poorer neighbors. and produce
a kindly feeling between the, at present.
rich and the presently poor. / ask you.
