These were the wants of yesterday, they
are the wants of today; they will be the
wants of tomorrow and of tomorrow's
morrow. The struggle may assume new
forms, but the issue is the immcmorial
one-an effort of the producers to obtain
an increasing measure of the wealth that
falls from their production"
Tt is Organized Labor's job to see that
they get it.

THE CURSE
OF POVERTY
Ten Million Persons in
Want in United
States.

1t is estimated that there are 1O, 100000
persons in actual poverty in the United
States. Not that there are so many in
distress, but that much Of the time they
are undcrfed, Improperly housed md
poorly clothed. According to the cen
sus report there arc nearly 10000 per-
SONS i'll the alnlshorscs of this country
1t is probable that the total number OF
public and private abnormal dependents
i'll the United States is not less than
3,OOO,OOO, or one thirtcth of the total
population of the country, for whom is
expended about $250,0O0,OOO or one-tenth
of the total wage income of all manufac
turing establishments OF the country.

New York City alone spends $50, OOO,O
IL year in charity.
There are over 100000 paupcrs lex

Kingdom. Fifty million dollars is spent
in London alone for the poverty-stricken.
Thirty per cent. of the people are below
the poverty line" making altogether
about 100000 i'll this one city whose
condition is such as to require assistance
of many kinds. 1t is needless to say
that thousands of deaths are directly due
to the long continued undertaking and
exposure, and of these the young children
suffer most. The late Sir Henry Camp
bell stated that "thcrc are 100000
people i'll the British Isles who in
this deplorable condition. In addition
to these there are over 100000 persons
who actually receive public relief in the
course of one year" In London, in 1904,
one person in every three died in the
workhouse or lunatic asylums. The bread
lines in our great cities are not composed
exclusively of tramps and va%abonds.
There are large numbers of bonafide
of jobs. and who. in many cases, have
come to the city for the purpose of find
ing work No artificial method of sup
plying jobs for these men will suffice.
We must find Il normal system which
will permit men to live with their fam
lilies and build up their homes. The
farm colony is failure, so far as city
men are concerned. Perhaps its worst
effect is the notwithstanding" of the
workingman. The average man cannot
survive this ordeal.
While large numbers of the poor are
dependent upon charity-and it would
be disastrous in some cases if this char
ity were withheld-the average working
man does not want charity. He wants
Justice and he wants work. The Charity
Organization Society of New York says
that from 43 per cent. to 50 per cent. of
the applicants coming to this organiza-
ton need work rather than relief.
