The Poor Ye Have
Always
BY Charles P. Andrews

THE poor we have always" This
a fundamental social condition was
used in the gospels to convey two les
sons: First, that there would always
be an opportunity for charitable Civ
ing-an opportunity that brings with
it obligation; and, secondly, that such
giving should not interfere with other
duties.
The cause of poverty has been the
subject of politico- economic discus
siOns ever since man began to look
with philosophical minds upon the
conditions of society.
This is not the place to enter into
these discussions.
Suffice it is to state that one rec
ognized cause is the circumstances in
which a portion OF the people are
placed by misfortune OF some kind
accident. ill-health. inefficiency on
their own part, or oppression by 9TH
ers. While these causes continue, pow
erty will exist.
ameliorated. Though the strong
sometimes Cypress the weak. there is
a humanitarian spirit which often in
duces the well-to-do TO assist the less
fortunate. Tie Romans looked back
TO the idyllic times:
when the great man helped the
poor man,
And the poor man loved the
great
For Romans all were brothers
In the brave days OF old"
The most perfect embodiment OF
this spirit is in the terse summary
Jesus made OF the old Hebrew law:
Love thy neighbor as myself"
The APPROACHING Good VIII week
with the attendant activities OF the
Federation for Social Service makes
most timely consideration OF our
duty 10 the ever present poor. This
consideration need not BE wholly un-
selfish.
IL may react in benefit TO ourselves.
Blessed is he that considereth the
poor saith the Psalmist, The Lord
| will deliver him in time OF trouble

THE NoTE no GREAT BRITAIN.

Evidently the bulldOzing methods of
Great Britain with respect to neutral
rights TO the use of the seas, have
reached a limit where the United
States has found words in which to
file a vigorous protest. and. for a
while. we have had occasion to peruse
something else pertaining TO our re-
lations to the European war, aside
from the skUIlduggeries Of Germany.
That the administration at Wash
ington is at least semi-convinced that
Britain's seizures Of American cargOes
bound for neutral ports, is more a
matter Of commercial interference
than Of wars necessities. is apparent
England is made 10 appear in reality
mere jealous OF our growing COM
merce than she is afraid that our
shipments will be reexported 20 the
aid Of her enemies. Tt is the same old
lack OF good faith that has stationed
Britain in "a position for the contempt
of the American people even from the
very foundation of our government;
an attitude not only toward the United
. States. but likewise toward Germany
and every other world power, whose
growing commerce has seemed at
times threatening to British suprem-
acy.-such as gave her her character
istfc title OF John Bull"
Germany is at war with England
today mainly on account of that Brit
ish attitude, and much of Germany's
militarism has no doubt been inspired
by that same British attitude If it
were a war exclusively between Bri-
tain and Germany, there is small ques-
tion but that the bulk Of American
sentiment would be with Germany,
and it is only regrettable that Ger
many could not have picked her quar-
rel direct without using Servia as an
excuse, and forcing the allied cooper
alton against her of France, Russia.
Belgium and Italy. In the settlement
of the war as between England and
Germany. the freedom of the seas is
bound 10 be a paramount issue, and
in the settlement of that issue, Ger
many is quite certain 20 find the
United states among her friendly al
lies.
While Sec'y Lansing has evaded the
use Of such strenuous terms as
strict accountability" which were
hurled at Germany anent the Lusi-
tania affair. that the United States
cannot with complacence suffer sub
ordination Of its rights and interests"
is decidedly suggestive 1t is merely
a more diplomatic way of putting IL,
and the American people hope that
such is the only difference, at least.
We owe Britain nothing incident to
this war. Any effort on her part to
interfere with our commerce under
the false pretense Of self-protection
against her enemies is quite as de-
spicable. barring the difference be-
tween souls and dollars. as though she
were making a business of sinking
passenger ships.
After the months OF "watchful
waiting" in anticipation OF what the
government would eventually say to
Britain. it is gratifying that it has
finally been said. and. i'm language suf-
hciently plain that even an English
man ought to be able TO comprehend
it's meaning.

writer says, though I imagine that the

likely also the drink victim might not

procure a few pennies for other neces-

for their offspring would come very
far short of possessing the perfect

these poor victims TO publicly and
