There is a crying need for a permanent

IS NEW YORK THE BEST CITY
IN THE WORLD TO HER POOR2


NJ EW YORK contributes to the vel
M fare and assistance Of her poor
l ' from all sources, public and pri-
vate. something over ten million
dollars each year, about eight millions Of
which comes from the public treasury, and
still we cannot say that she is the best
city in the world TO the poor.
There are two distinct propositions en-
bodied in a discussion Of how good great
metropolis is to its poor.
First-What does the city do in the di-
rection Of improving living conditions OF
the masses who work for low wages in the
way OF better tenements, cleaner streets,
educational facilities, small parks and
Fairgrounds, baths, reading rooms, cheap
and rapid transit protection of food sup
plies. etc?
Second-What is done by public and Pri-
vate institutions for the actually desti-
tute who have given up the attempt for
self-support from iH-health or old age, and
who must be wholly supported by charity
The first proposition depends largely for
its solution upon the broadcast State and
municipal legislation which can be enact
ed. This legislation involves a certain
amount Of regulation and restriction Of
matters Of which the municipality need
not assume actual ownership or control
How to advance and help our great
crowded city population is our gravest
problem, and in spite OF the worthy eff
forts already made and being carried on
today little visible impression has been
made in the amelioratiOn OF conditions IN
der which the crowded masses who stand
lowest in the industrial scale must live
The tenement house laws have done
some good. and under the tenement house
department they are apt 70 accomplish
more in the future than they have in the
past.
It would take many millions to produce
mechanically the enYirOnmt ut OF streets,
houses. and sanitary conditions, in which
the poor should have a chance to live. New
York is not as good 20 her poor in this
way as some Of our newer cities, where not
wholly thorough intention, but perforce Of
more modern buildings, etc, they live
cleaner lives.
II is also doubtful whether New York
is the leading city in its public institu-
lions for the sick and poor. Boston has
a better city hospital than our Bellevue.
though with our Bellevue and other pub
lie hospitals we are undoubtedly in ad-
vance OF similar institutions ia PhlIadeI-
