The state of New York IN contem-
plating measure. which Is likely to
become law, for the colonization
of tnamps. There are, Il 10 etima,ei
more than half million men ION
the road" men without homes or
means CT livelihood, In the United
States. A surprising proportion OF
the1e youths under twenty. Many
go out for experience, and after got
ting In the way OF wandering, con-
tinue to do so. Many OF the tramps
are shiftless and aimless. while come
are downright victims OF adversely.
The new plan Is TO colonize them,
20 sentence all Migrants TO a term
OF one or two years in a tramp coll
ony whore they Win be obliged to
work at farming, gardening or some
industrial pursuit. For the time
served each tramp will have an
amount OF money to his credit. so
that on his release he will have q
little start In life and will receive
every enccnragement to begin anew
a life OF industry and usefulness.
The Idea comes from Holland. Bel
GUM and Switzerland, In all of
which there are tramp colonies.
which have been very effective IN
deed, not only In Kidding those
countries OF Migrants, but in encour-
aging men who have lost hope to a
new and better career. Many, Il Ia
| true, are hopeless cases. These haze
to be sentenced again and again and
perhaps never amount TO anything.
But the majority, especially OF the
young men, can be reclaimed They
learn what industry Is and what Il
is to save; they get interested in the
new life, in many instances they
become good, substantial citizens
The experiment is certainly worth
trying.
