Denmark Abolishes Poverty Among the
Aged.

Aged
with old.age relief, Denmark has had
significant experience in proof Of the
ancient maxim, The more you do, the
more YOU may dc. In 1898, about 49,.
600 aged persons were enjoying assist
ance from the community; in 1905 there
were nearly $1,000 There has been no
increase in poverty, or in population, to
explain this growth; and it seems that
the larger number must be accounted
for hy The fact that now, ais age comes
on the individual begins to arrange his
affairs SO that he can obtain the gov
ernment help Furthermore, the average
amount paid out per person has, since
1894, gone up from $3.50 to something
more than S26. But Denmark is land
Of prosperity; tho expenditure, If divid.
ed up among all the people, would be
only about thirty cents for each, and,
even though the Danish old-age provision
is expensive, no one cares
One advantage Of the Danish law over
the German plan is that it protects all
the aged and deserving poor, and not
merely the former employees Of industry.
Except for the demand that the appli-
cant be deserving no class Is selected
