His appeal to the authorities is one

exemption should be granted to every

Predictions of revolution to follow

unusual is for an official in SO promi-

publicly express himself: so. In doing
this he has sinned against plunderbund

A CHARITY MASQUE-
RADE EXPOSED

Imitation is the sincerest flattery
| Opponents of predatory privilege are
I beginning to receive such fiattery from
one of privileges main supports, the
charity organizations. An example is
recent advertisement of The Phila-
delphia Society for Organizing Charity
in the North American. The advertise
ment was an appeal for support On
/ the line below the title of the Society
were these words: ''For the purpose Of
abolishing poverty"
Now, the North American boasts that
it accepts no misleading or deceptive
advertising. So Joseph Fels wrote to
the editor as follows:
ais there any exception to the North
| Americans rule regarding misleading
advertisements? | am led to ask this
on seeing in your issue of March 18th
an advertisement of local charity in
which it announces that it exists for
the purpose Of aboIishing poverty
"lf the purpose of this organization
actually were what it says, it would
/ now be engaged in striving to bring
about repeal of the laws that create
poverty. 1t would be demanding abo-
Iition of the privileges which enable
some to legally appropriate the earn
ings of the rest 1t would be calling
public attention to the need of doing
away with monopoly of natural re-
sources. 1t would be demanding of the
Pennsylvania legislature that it abolish
all taxes on labor and it's products. It
would have protested against the re-
cent proposal from the city hall to levy
occupation taxes, taxes on manufacture
ed goods and other fines on industry
and enterprise. 1t would have had
representatives at the public taxation
meetings in the council chamber to ex-
press such views in it's name. It would
have protested to Congress every time
the robber tariff was revised upward.
Il would now be demanding complete
abolition of all tariffs and all other
Indirect taxes, It would be demanding
the all public revenue be derived from
taxation of land values and nothing
else. so that holders of natural OPP
portunties would be compelled to
either use the NOR let others do SO
"But It has done nothing Of the kind
during the 8 years Of its existence.
mot long ago charity organizations
were foremost in sneerins at the idea
Of abolishing poverty. Now they are
trying to palm off their makeshifts and
pallatives as the. genuine remedy. !
trust the North American will not let
itself be used to help such game"
