The truth so plain that no denial
can possibly be sustained.
The upholders of legalized wrongs
which create poverty can not be
given to understand too emphatically
that no gifts Of charity can be great
enough to atone in the slightest de-
gree for the evil done.

CURRENT COM MENT.

Benjamin C. Marsh, of New York,
whose long association with charity
dolers and official connection with
charity organizations, enables him to
speak with authority, shocked the
SNUG, seIf-Satisfied phiIanthropists of
Boston by the following remarks be.
fore the Twentieth Century Club:
You have here in Boston overseers
I4of the poor, but l want to tell YOU
that what you need is overseers of
The rich. Among the worst exploiters
of the poor are the directors Of the
great charities. Anyone who studies
the directors list of our great chart.
ties will see this. l wish we could
put up against the directors of all the
charities who own the land the men
who would like to work the land and
let them take their coats off and set
tie the question to whom the land
should belong as it was settled in
the first place.
L ann always in doubt whether the
directors Of Our charities should be
sent to Institutions for the insane
or to institutions for the criminal.
am always glad to have all evidence
possible on the subject. What do you
pay unskilled wage earners in Bos-
Ton? am told the maximum is SO
or $12 week. Well, to give the
philanthropistS the benefit of the
doubtyou have got to give the phil
anthropists all the benefit of the
doubt or else you couldn't stand
them in the same city with you for a
week-yOu charge these unskilled la
borers at least $144 to $3.50 a year
for three good rooms. No man ought
TO be obliged to pay more than 20
per cent Of his earnings for rent, no
matter what your rent is. l am salts
fled that we have got to come to this
conclusion before we determine what
standards Of living are.
Every cent of every dollar taken
by the owner Of the land above the
rent to which he may be entitled is
robbery Of the poor. In practically
every American city and State the
real estate interests own and control
the legislative body Of the city and
State. You have lots Of vacant
land here in Boston and the Door
people live on more expensive land
than the wealthy In many parts Of
Boston. Many directors Of charity
are making money out Of the poor"
