POSITION OF THE MEDICAL LEAGUE.
1T BELIEVES THAT THE PUBLIC MONEY SHOULD
GO TO CITY INSTITUTIONS.

1T BELIEVES THAT THE PUBLIC MONEY SHOULD
GO TO CITY INSTITUTIONS.
To the Editor Of The Tribune
Sir: Many good people suffering from the
apprehension and Misrepresentation that the New
York Mcdica. League is opposing charity TO the
sick poor. This is entirely foreign 20 the purposes
Of that body: therefore directed 10 COM
munlcate 10 you, and. by courtesy, through you TO
the public. the following statement:
The NewYork Medical League believes
First-That there Is not enough charity work
done in ;his city
Second-That there Is TOO much OF the benevo-
lence business transacted; that many worthy poor
deprived of the aims provided for them. be-
cause all those aims do not reach the truly needy
through the proper dipect channels. and that 1t Is
n shame that any institution should show hand-
some annual profits and yet beg for city money
especial y when its earnings represent moneys de-
rived from the poor.
Thrd-That all dispensaries. etc. should be free.
for 1t is a cruel and unnecessary hardship 10 ask
poverty-strcken persons TO pay anything for medi-
cnes or surgical appliances.
Four,h-That IT is a bad policy to give city money
to private institutions. to the detrmen and loss Of
the public appointed for the care Of the sick
poor We believe thai the city Institutions should
be repaired improved in sanitation and llumina-
ton. and should furnish larger and better accom-
modatons The city money should be used to give
better FOOD, warmth ana clothing 10 inc pduehls
under treatment In the city hospae.
F!fth-It Is all wrong TO give public money to
medical colleges. The profits go INFO the pockets OF
the faculty or into the institution. These incorpo-
rated colleges close corporations, and just as
much money making enterprises as a grocery store
and gas company
sixth-It is an outrage that the public ins,itu,
lions should be obliged to maintain a patient on
iess than 80 cents day. while the city gives over
81 n day TO private institutions for the same work
Seventh-rhe Board OF Estimate and Apportion-
stood a tie. to q and IN" chaIi man cast me
deciding vote. Therefore. the Mayor is responsible
for the fact that the municipal institutions VIII be
q rcproach city because the money that
should have gone for their urgent necessities has
been given away. As he himself stated In a certain
case, 1t given because he knew the man inter-
ested
Eighth-The taxpayers are Wiling that private
persons should give their own money, but we Go
not believe they approve OF any diversion OF public
money away from the public Institutions or or any
eift OF the same TO close corporations.
Ninth-Finally, we wish TO state that In the large
gathering that protested there were representa-
ives OF taxpayers associations, business men; etc
The doctors were there simply 10 give evidence
against the farce behind tho scenes, partially yelled
by The mantle Of a so-ca,ed charity.

MYSTERY ABOUT TIE JAMES ". HASKELL

People who live and work in the neighborhood OF
Pollon's Basin Court-st, Brooklyn. say THAI the
schooner James ~ Haskell sailed away from that
place on Saturday last with a supply OF ainmunl-
