Making a slave out of a debtor is.

New York, however, has managed to
pass law by which a mans salary
may be garnisheed, not only for ne
cessities. but for luxuries. A merchant
or manufacturer can persuade the
supporter of a family TO buy what he
does not need. and then go to his en-
ployer and hold up his salary. if it
be over $12 a week. while his wife and
children starve. This is to the adj
vantage of the seller of luxuries. 1t is

favor all the legislation of Roosevelt

While New York has been legislating
for the rich against the poor, Massa-
chusetts has been proceeding in the
very opposite direction by legislating
against the loan shark. The New
York law may make 1T easier for Col
lier's to collect from dts subscribers,
but it is an outrage to justice: 1t is
a barking back to the blindness OF
the past, and ought to be repealed.
