How to Abolish Poverty.

In her address Miss Lathrop said, in
part:
THE abolition of poverty is broad
and revolutionary title. The calm with
which we accept it shows how far we
have all gone along the highway of con-
structive measures and how far the
thought of fighting poverty has taken
the place of that old fatalism which &C
cepted, not as a reproach. but as a state
ment of fact, the poor We have always
with YOU.
Now. i think if We define poverty as
given time and place make certain per-
sons unable to provide themselves with
what are then agreed by common con-
sent TO be the necessities of moral and
physical health, We must restate it anew
day by day in such terms as the civiiza-
ton and inventions of each succeeding
day require.
"A woman, still poor. said to Mary
Field: Say, it's this way: First you
get nothing to eat and you holler for
bread. and when you get bread you holler
for butter and when YOU get butter you
holler for jam. and so it keeps up Per-
ha ps We might translate this analogy and
say that we demand, first, physical
basis for life. and then We demand COM
fort, and then suddenly see that
certain margin beyond of asreeableness
of rest, of relaxation. is essential to nor
NAL life: we demand leisure and oppor-
tunity for recreation, and we are not
willing to recognize d normal life as en-
conpa Ssing less.

sufficient wage it is because he is In
weaker position in industrial bargaining
than his capitalist employer. To some
extent this may be corrected: First. by
strengthening the competitive strength or
the workingman by substituting col
lective bargaining for individual wage
adjustment. as is the purpose of modern
trade unionism, or. second. it may be
corrected by restraining the control of
monopoly i'm it's demand for labor. This
is one of the designs of governmental

At meeting so largely attended that
1T oVerfiowed Rauscher's hall the As
sociated Charities of the District of Co.
lumbia heard the annual reports of its
officers last night, showing how the Or
ganiZatiOn is scientifically going about
the work of abolishing poverty. 1t was
the thirty-first annual meeting Of the
association and demonstrated that the Or
sanization was stronger than ever be-
fore in its history.
Miss Julia c. Lathrop, chief of the chill
dren's bureau of the Department of Com
merce and Labor, and DR.. Jacob c. Hol-
lander. professor of political economy at
Johns Hopkins University, delivered adj
dresses on the subject of the abolition of
poverty On the stage, in addition to the
two speakers, Were Rt. Rev. Alfred
Harding. Bishop of Washington: Com
missioner Cuno II. Rudolph. Corcoran
Thorn, president of the Associated Chart
ties; John Joy Edison. treasurer, and
Walter S Ufford. secretary.
Before adjournment III. Martin Will
liams, one of the reading clerks of the
House of Representatives. declared that
the real reason of poverty lay in the
fact that the people are separated from
the land, and that adoption of Henry
Georges single tax plan would do more
than anything else to prevent poverty.
After an invocation by Bishop Harding,
the president welcomed those attending
the meeting.

Falls Upon Three Glasses.

DIR. Jacob III. Hollander said that pow
erty interpreted as consequence of de-
fective distribution must fall upon three
classes in the community: First, upon
those who are at work. but who are in
sufficiently paid: second, upon those who
want TO work. but are at certain times
unable To find employment, and, third.
upon those who through some mental or
physical infirmity find it impossible to
secure employment at all.
In other words" DR.. HOllander con-
tinued these classes are. first, the I'M
derpaid: second. the unemployed. and,
third. the unemployable. The question of
the abolition of poverty becomes, then, d
question of how to insure sufficiency
TO the members of these several classes.
If any c,ass of wage earners in regu-
lar employment is paid less than enough
to maintain wholesome existence. 1T must
be either because the method of fixing
the wages is socially unsound, or because
although the method itself may be sound
II does not work out because of impeding
forces. Economists have long inclined
TO the latter view and deny that an in
sufflcient wage is necessary conSe-
quence of the modern industrial contract
method. If the laborer fails to obtain a
