AVERAGE HOBO is
NOT BATH FIEND
Rabbi Cronbach Gives Ideas on What
Public Lodging House
Should Be.

Last year Rabbi Abraham Cron-
bach came near and yet far from see
ing his ideal the municipal lodging
house. realized. The pamphlet on
the subject he got out some time ago,
be entitled Something South Bend
Badly Needs" In a few pages he
sums up the problem of the tramp
and his relation to the community
Rabbi Cronbach says: I'VE don't
want TO accommodate the hobo and
make our city a stopping place for
him by maintaining a place where he
can find food and shelter, but on the
contrary we want to make il a place
he Will avoid. We want TO help the
deserving man who is out of work. to
protect ourselves against the unde-
serving and to convert the tramp in
TO a useful citizen. if possible"
The average man that comes
knocking at the door for assistance is
professional tramp, that is, he
makes il his business to earn his liv-
ing by begging. He may be lazy or a
criminal and 90 chances to one. is un-
clean and the carrier OF disease. In
stead Of individuals giving that man
food. clothes and money, why not the
community support a lodging house
10 which he would be given a ticket
First he would be given a good plain
meal. Then he would be required to
take a thorough bath. From the bath
he would pass through a physical eX-
animation and finally be assigned a
clean bed. where he would be lodged
for the night. In the meanwhile his
clothes would be fumigated and in the
morning after a plain breakfast work
would be assigned him.
But, YOU will say. hasn't the city
established just such "A thing? No.
emphatically, no. A year ago the city
council fitted up place at police
headquarters out of pity and a very
nice place il is, so nice, that without
the requirement of a bath and the
work test. it is practically an invita-
ton to the tramp 10 make South Bend
frequent stopping place and be the
guest of the city in the nice quarters
fitted up for his use. 1t is true no
meals are served him here, though
there is provision made that he
shall receive bread"
Rabbi CrOnbach wants to empha
size the fact that the idea of his lodg-
ing house is not an invitation to
tramps but means of eliminating
them because experience shows that
this species of useless member of So
ciety shuns a place where he must 90
through the ordeal of a bath and the
work test. In the proposed institution
a record is also kept of all dodgers.
The essential thing for the realiZa-
ton of this plan is the enthusiasm
and cooperation Of the public in
general A meeting or luncheon is TO
be arranged for all friends of the
mOvelGent, at which will be determin-
ed the details of the campaign.
