September IS, 1919.
Ny dear Mr.. Curtis:
May I, through you, express my
sincere thanks to my fellow members
of our board Of directors for the
munifiCent manner in which, at the
meeting yesterday, they accepted my
IPSlGUd lPuuPTPu ldSI DtNNilbVl5
as editor of the Ladies' Home Jour
nal, to take effect January /, 1920,
with leave of absence meanwhile?
No one knows better than you how
sincere has been my desire that at
the close of my thirty years editor
ship of the magazine I should be al
lowed to retire from the ,ns;stcnt
demands of the position, so that
might have more leisure to enjoy the
fruits of my labor while I still have
the full health and capacity to en-
JOY them. No other reason of my
own choosing could induce me to
sever my editorial connection with
the magazine which has meant so
much to me except this desire for
freedom on my part and the knowl-
edge that / leave the magazine in its
! firmly established position, with
every department of it successful in
the highest degree.
With renewed appreciation of the
generous action Of the board, be-
| lieve me,
Always faithfully yours,
(Signed) EDWARD BOX.

URGES MAKING"
ALONG HUMANE LINES
Albert Kelsey Launches Cam
paign to "open Up" Con-
gested Central District

A campaign for more humane city.
was launched today at the
luncheon of the Engineers Club by AL
bert Kelsey, widely known Philadelphia
architect.
Mr.. Kelsey urged the engineers to
help form public sentiment both to
check the present lawless building riot
and to start n type of reconstruction
and broadening out and opening up that
will fill the present dreadful lack in
the lives of most of our people"
The speaker described the congested
part Of the city which lies between the
two rivers and for mile north and
south of Market street.
us there" he said, within that
area single church that is not either
overcrowded or overtopped by private
buildings or befoued by industrialism ?
Is there single ample green and sunny
school yard? Is there a single detached
sunny and wholly salubrions market
building? Is there single fine place of
public amusement and recreation where
the plain people may dance, sing and
hear good music? Is there n single well
shaded avenue or park where they may
dine in the open air2 Is there on either
of our lopg water fronts a single ter
raced garden or promenade where they
may watch the sunset, breathe pure air
and rest in peace? Is there, in short
in all that vast and densely populated
area a single public joy giving beauty
spot where, through the eye and ear
the plain people may obtain a littl,
whole hearted pleasure and much need
ed inspiration?'
Mr.. Kelsey told of the project, con

My letter to Mr.. Curtis explains
the whole situation" Mr.. Box said.
Next month shall have been editor
of the Ladies' Home Journal for thirty
years. That is a long time. 1t is
perhaps the longest active tenure Of
office Of any magazine editor in the
country. Now l want rest from the
job. / wanted to retire, five years ago
when l was editor for twenty i've
years, but it was not convenient to my
company to have me do so. So it's not
a new thought" !"
What are your plars?" Mr. Box
was asked.
Il am going to play. I went to
work when I was thirteen years old,
and I have been working ever since
That means forty three years, and /
have not been out of job for one day.
I had no play time in my boyhood !:
/ was too poor and too busy. Now I
am going to enjoy myself while I can
still enjoy good time. I'm going to
do some special writing, travel and
devote myself to my wife and two big
sons. I'm going to try that for thirty
years. and If find like editing better,
I'll go back to it then. See?"
care you going TO retire from your
civic and other interests in Philadel- :
phia and Merton? ?" the reporter asked.
"Not at all. They are not as insist :,
ent and compulsory as il an editorial
position. An editor must be on the job
all the time if he is conscientious.
Generally speaking, he can never get
away from his work. 1T isn't that, l
dislike work; I love it. but | want the
kind of work now that will allow me
TO go away if l want to go, and give
me freedom of movement.
II find myself with more none!
than time" the editor continue
thoughtfully. Not that ! have s.
much money. but have no time at all
I value money, but | place a highe
value on the wise use of ones time
It's been all work with me. Tha
isn't right. It isn't good for man
human relations and if one doesn't ge
those right, Of what use is all else?
81 have never believed in a ma
working until one foot is in the grave
He ought to enjoy the fruits of hi
labor. And that's exactly what Ir
going to do. I'm going to have som
fun" And Mr.. Dok's face beamed a
the thought.

TENANTS PRESENT
GOUG|NG EVIDENCE
Protective Association Appeals
to Attorney General Schaf-
fer in Harrisburg
WANT IMMEDIATE ACTION

Immediate steps to combat rent
gouging, real estate profiteering and
Illegal manipulation Of certain building
and loan associations will be asked by
representatives Of the United Tenants
Protective Association, who are in Har-
rishurg today to present their evidence
of such actions to ATTORNEY Gcnera'
Schaffcr.
The conference is the outcome OF
Governor Sprouts desire to help tenants
suffering from the protiteors. ana was
called as result of his decision 10
got all evidence possible and then pro-
coed against the gougers.
Reports and indictments tending 10
show criminal action or intent on 'he
part Of proftoprs and some building ana
loan associations have been gathered
and will be presented as tn" tenants
side Of the case.
Nature of Charges
The association has more than 10000
members and the charges represent ac-
tions taken against various members
nv real estate brokers and the dolngs
nf building and loan associations un-
covered by members.
The association will be represented
by Isaac l.. S. Smink, secretary; Rlch =
ard McSorcy, attorney; and Michael
Conway, organizer.
II is probable that when the com :
mittecmen are in Harrisburg they will
pndcavor also to enlist the assistance OF
State Banking Commissioner John ).
Fisher in their fight against rent pro
ftecring.
Il can show the attorney general
beyond any doubt that real estate
sppculators, financed by building and
loan associations, are gambling in the
peoples homes, using the people
money TO do, it WITH said Mr.. Smink,
"In Philadelphia there are 132 of these
associations, but many of them have the
same secretaries. These men are known
rs professional secretaries handling
the affairs Of twenty or thirty assOria
thcrc is an inner circle of secretaries
that handle the funds of virtually al
the associations,
Law FOrbids Such Loans
/ II shall give Mr. Schaffer proof that
4 these funds are being placed at the dis
| posal of real estate spectators. Tht
state gives to building and loan asso.
/ Citations the right to lend money only
to homcbuyers AS soon as they lenG
to anyone else they violate the law anG
sacrifice the right to tax exemption
which they now enjoy because their
legal purpose is to help poor people tc
buy homes"
Representatives of several Philadel =
phia building and loan associations, in
tcrvicwed last night, denied vehemently
that their organizations were in any
way involved in speculation calculated
to advance rents. Most of them said
they believed it impossible under the law
for the secretaries of any associations
to connive with the spectators.
