The idle rich are more of men
ace to society than the vaga5onds
who tramp from town to town in
quest Of beggared sustenance The
capers Of the smart set, so called

key dinners and dog teas, who en-

riat. so TO speak, ana strengthens
the discomfort with conditions that

a greater source Of evil than idle

of the other and yet the do.nSs Of

with seeming indulgence while the
other sembance of idleucss is
frowned upon with severity.
Both deserve condemnation; both
are inimical to good government to

That there is something radically
wrong with "A system that allows a
man to beg for bread while his more

supper for his idle friends, is quite
apparent to the student of sociolog-
ical conditions.
That these conditions have been
largely augmented in the past few
years in the United States, and that
such augmentation is largely the
result of legislation that has created

time. is also true.
