MOTHERS PENSION BUREAU.

II I6dQ WlLu interest your LuIGG ldSL
letters to this column and must say
noted each one particularly, for 1
am interested in a case where a
mother has seven, children and an in
come of about SIS per week. She
has been trying to get a pension for
two years and the mothers pension
bureaG refuses to give her one. Her
husband was no dTunkard, but he
was a hard working man until four
years before his death. These four
years he was blind and nervous and
did not work.
Your articles make me laugh out
right the way you uphold the moth
ers' pension bureau, when in reality
it is just as bad, if not worse, than
the United Charities, who, by the
way, also refuse to help her.
The mothers pension bureau had
been investigating this case for al
most two years and finally it dropped
her case. Now you say in your LETT
ter that no matter what the cause,
as long as a mother is in need she
should go to the mothers pension
bureau. The money it cost the bU-
reau to investigate this woman's case
would have kept her family for six
months at least,
Your sixth commandment of
mothers pension says: Thou shalt
not starve children. - Well, these chill
dren of whom am writing are sure
ly not well fed, and the mother is
actually starving herself so her chill
dren have something to eat Can you
answer me if that comes within your
teachings? On April p you said: q
believe God created strong men and
women to take care of all children -
You may believe that, but the moth
ers' pension bureau don't.
You believe that a government
which permits it's little children to
suffer of hunger. is damned" Well, |
then, this government is certainly

You believe the mothers pension
in all its fullness and completeness
should be extended to every child and
mother in need" Well, why isn't it
extended to this half starving widow
with seven small children? Your
letters and the system of the moth
ers' pension bureau do not agree.
The name of this widow l will keep,

son for writing is to show you that

The other day l happened to notice
a handsomely published book in the
public library entitled The First
Citizens of the United States" To
me it was as big a surprise as if the
United States, following an example
of China, turned into a monarchy.
Ordering this book for reading, I
could not believe the seriousness of
