CLEVELAND DISCUSSES
FORMER PRESIDENTS
Contributes Article to Periodical in
Which He Writes of Jefferson's
Poverty After He Left
White House
By Associated riesu.

BY Associated FlesH.
NEW YORK, Dec. 2S.-Former Presi-
dent Grover Cleveland, under the title of
"Our People and Their Ex-Presidents, .
has contributed an interesting article to
the Youths Companion for January 8.
Referring to the poverty of Jefferson
after he left the presidency as blow to
national pride, Mr. Cleveland declares
definite and generous provision should be
made for the maintenance of chief mag
istrates at the end of their terms. He
deals with the subject at length and
explains that he feels he can do so with
out his sincerity being questioned, since
he is beyond the need of aid from the
public treasury.
"The condition is by no means met"
Mr.. Cleveland writes, 'by the meager
and spasmodic relief occasionally fur
nished under the guise of a military
pension or some other pretext; nor would
1t be best met by making compensation
dependent upon the discharge of senator
ial or other duties. Our people ought
to make definite and generous provision
for all cases alike, based on motives of
justice and fairness and adequate to the
situation"
Mr.. Cleveland describes the limitations
that his former high office place on q
retired president in his choice of occupa-
ton and means of livelihood and how
popular conception of him as repository
of national dignity enforce a scale of
living that may not be within his private
means.

cord. The couple appeared here and took
out a license to wed. Somers declared
