nouncement made this morning by En-
gineer Commissioner William v. Judson.

size Of these charities are obstacles to
their efficient administration on common
principles. For example, in the diocese
Of Ely alone there are 9S5 separate

s'subsidizing'' the Destitute.
Lastly" continues the report. ''much
Of the charitable money Of today, instead
OF being used to prevent pauperism. is
being used to subsidize pauperism. Ex-
perience has again and again shown that
this division Of responsibility as between
charity and the poor law in regard to the
same cases is unsatisfactory. Either
each agency assumes that the other Is
properly looking after the case. with the
result that the case Is inadequately re-
lieved, or else each agency relieves with
out regard to what the other Is giving
with the result that the case receives
more assistance than is required. A dual
responsibility for the same case may thus
be either wasteful or cruel"
The remedies proposed by the royal
commission In its $50 recommendations
are quite comprehensive and reach In
many directions. They are altogether too
numerous and important to be discussed

body with benevolent disposition can
relieve distress and comfort the ahlict-
ed, but the facts show that the most
sympathetic souls are often the most
uaily imposed upon by misrepresenta-
ton and deception. The entire drift OF
the recommendations of the royal COM
mission is toward a concentration Of re-
sponsibility and the employment Of sal
aried experts who are to administer re-
lief on a strictly business basis.
The public assistance authorities are
not to be directly elected by the voters.
but are to be appointed by the local
authorities from among persons with spe-
cial qualifications.
Charities to Cooperate.
1t is also recommended that public ad-
ministration shall work in closer CO.
operation with the local and private char
tiles in order to avoid duplication. The
sum of $75.456, TAO. which was expended
in 1905 for the relief of the poor and
sick. represents only the money raised
by taxation. and does not include many
millions more which was contributed by
private individuals and disbursed through
private agencies.
The commission also believes that the
system of public assistance should not
include processes Of self-help. which will
be preventive, curative and restorative.
Every effort should be made to foster
the instincts of independence. self-main-
tenance and self-respect among those as
sisted"
The commission states that much OF
the private charities "fell to the unjust
| as well as the just. They came to
drunken and immoral people living In
dirty homes: to the lazy and disreputable;
to people quite we'll enough OF to do
| without them; to those who are already
in receipt of pensions or had places in
almshouses; to widows of good, bad and
Indifferent characters; to steady and we'll
| doing people, and even to thriving fami-
| lies. They were distributed indiscrimi-
nately. They thus promoted the depend
| ence among the independent. and palli-
ated the Generalization and did little or
nothing to ameliorate a state OF poverty
or prevent a state Of distress.
Moreover. the large numbers and small

and Wales. has risep above It,
Turning next to expenditure, the tale
is almost more doleful. In the year 1871
eight millions: in the year 1905-06 1t had
amounted to fourteen millions.
Summing up the general situation In
regard to the increase in expenditure, We
find that. while the expenditure per IN
2a.d since 1912. and is only 7Ad less
than 1t was in 1884. the expenditure per
pauper has increased from f7 Us ID to
els Us I'd in the same period. The
country is maintaining a multitude of
paupers not far short Of the numbers
maintained in 1s7l-72. and Is spending
more than double the amount upon each
individual.
Great Sums Expended.
THE increased expenditure has done
little toward diminishing the extent of
pauperism. Such advance as the nation
has made has been accomplished at an
enormous cost. and absorbs an annual
amount which is now equivalent to nearly
one-half of the present expenditure upon
the army. 1t may be urged that the
rate of pauperism had diminished from
S1.2 per 1000 in 1S71-79 to 222 per 1000
in 1s96-19O5, and this is certainly mat
ter of congratulation. but 1t has been the
result of the large increase in the popu-
lation rather than Of any considerable
reduction In the number of paupers.
This discouraging result has occurred
Notwithstanding the fact that we are
spending twenty millions more for educa-
tion than in 1881 and thirteen millions
more in sanitation and the prevention of
disease than In 1S41."
These appalling conditions are discussed
| by the commission at great length, and
various recommendations are made for a
change Of methods of administration. II
| is proposed In the first place to abolish the
| boards Of guardians throughout the king
dom, and organize "a system of public as
sistance,' TO be conducted by experts.
and to reduce the system OF relief to
