KNELL OF THE A
Charity Organizations and Railroads
May Combine t. Put Thesn
to ROut.

Several different forces, commercial,
charitable and municipal, have COM
biped to wage a war of determination
against tramps. To that end a con
ference was recently held in Philadel-
phia, reports the Brooklyn Eagle.
Representatives of the United Charity
Organization societies and of the great
railroads of the country met there and
outlined a plan of campaign which
should rid the country of the long.
standing reproach of mendicancy and
trampdom. 1t is to be at once Q cam
paign of conquest and of benevolent
assimilation. Where the tramp de-
clines to be benevolently assimilated
into decent self-respecting society he
is going to be eliminated, either by i'm
prisonment or by starvation, by round.
ing him up or by making things so IN.
pleasant for him by cutting him off
from his base of supplies and inter
fering with his transportation facili-
ties that he will be forced to see the
error of his ways and forsake them.
So the knell of the tramp is sound
ing. Men tramps, women tramps, girl
tramps and boy tramps are to go,
never to return. System and cooper
alive governmental science is to make
an end of the "yeggs" and the peter.
men," the "gaycats" and "panhandlers,"
the "hoppers," "throwouts' and Jock
ers." The railroads, acting in con-
junction with the mendicancy police
forces in the cities, which are under
the control of the organized charity
associations, are going to close the
lines of communication. Tramps will
not be able to move about. They will
be kept under the eye and control Of
the charity organization societies and
the police in the big cities. AS they
drift in from the smaller towns and

ging and pilfering, insulting and
frightening women and children, and
committing all sorts of small crimes
and depredations, they will be gath.
erred up by the police and the charity
aociety organizations working together.
There is to be in all the big cities
a special force of police to look after
them-a me~ndicancy police, working
in cooperation with the local organized
charity association. And between the
big cities there Is to be another spe.
cial force of police to look after them
the railroads are seeing to that.
They are going to keep him off their
lines altogether. They are driven to 1t
in self-defense. For years tramps have
been derailing cars, tampering with
switches, burning bridges, robbing and
killing lonely towermen and station
agents in out-of-the-way places.
Tramps are to be kept in the cities.
They will not travel to any great ex-
tent along country roads. That means
walking, and walking Is hard work.

x FOR GREEK A v
Part of Colony in Chicago Objects to
Oppressive Levy by Its
Church.

A novel aftermath of the Turko.
Grecian war is revealed in connection
with hearings or an application for
an injunction in the superior court OF
Cook county, ILL.,, recently made.
The question at issue, states a Chi
cago report, Is whether a church tax,
to be devoted to the aid of the navy
maintained by Greece to oppose the
aggressions of the Turks, can legally
be collected from Chicago members of
Greek associations Incorporated under
the laws of Illinois.
On behalf of one faction of the
Greek colony of Chicago Henry c.
Better contends that the assessment
of the navy tax by the governing body
Of the orthodox Greek church in this
city is a breach of the comfy of ma
tions.
1t was alleged by Mr.. Better that
a per capita tax Of so cents for the
Greek navy was demanded from each
Of the 10000 Greeks in Chicago before
they would be given a voice in the
government of the Greek orthodox
church, or be permitted to vote at the
annual election of officers for the as
ISOLATION of the Greek community of
Chicago, an organization holding a
charter under the laws of Illinois.
The bylaws of the association re-
quire only that applicants shall be
bona fide Greeks from Greece" and
shall pay an annual assessment Of 50
each. Control of the association has
been obtained in recent years by men
who have made the payment of the tax
in aid of King Georges navy a condi-
ton of membership in the organiza-
ton. ia 81
1t is asserted by Mr.. Better that a
majority of the well-to-do and repre-
sentative Greek residents of Chicago
are opposed to this method of collect
ing "the navy tax" They aver that
their patriotism is not less than that
of members of the opposing faction,
but they object to having the tax made
a part of the church dues, since the
association is really the financial arm
of the local Greek orthodox church and
exercises supervision owe the church
administration.
