CONCERNING GRIZZLIES

Editor The star. The public has
too often confused the idea OF Grip.
pie with that OF n begEar. The re-
sultlng reaction has done a great in
Jury to the cause Of the self respect
ing disabled man In regarding him
as a subject for charity. but not for
trade training and employment
To be sure. there IL historical prec
edent for this attitude. for in past
decades and centuries various pco
pies have condemned the cripple to
the status OF roadside beggar. or. at
best. employed his as Jester or court
fool. And in our experience there Is
justification in the view. because We
have seen many cripples NJ street
corners. making public exhibition Of
their deformity or amputation and
soliciting aims OF the pasEers by.
The number OF these beRgars is
small, in comparison To the great
body OF physically handicapped men
who are usefully employed. but the
few have vigorously advertised, have
made q considerable impression on
the susceptlbilities OF the community
and have reapcd profitable har
vest. A bank teller reported recent.
~ the case OF crippled street beg.
gar. who deposited In a savings ac.
count. after paying his living ex.
penses, $40 weekly.
That the beggar cripple has been
permitted to ply his trade is n great
injustice to the disabled men OF char.
acter and independence. The prac.
tice should have been stopped In the
past: II is absolutely necessary that
It be prohibited In the future. For

cant. on the contrary. every influ-
ence should be brought to bear upon
the public to show that physical
disability Is an obstacle. but easily
superable with character and ambI
ton; and that the cripple may be
made into a useful and productive
citizen.
In several cities there have been
lnauRurated campaigns TO drive the
