The thought is also brought out
that temporary relief is all that is at

the assistance of charity necessary.
But read the article for yourselves
it is as follows:
"The New York police recently >ot.
ed down a proposition to establish a
Police Hospital. The proposal appar-
emily originated with politicians who
were anxious to get another institu.
tion with another block of jobs unde,
their control, and they conceived the
idea of putting it through on the basis
of the approval of the uniformed mar
on the beat. To insure this ap.
proval, they arranged that the po
licemen's votes should be made YER
bally before the captain at each pre-
cinct station house. Under this meth.
cd the hospital was unanimously ap
proved-it apparently having been in

higher ups" wanted it. But after
ward a secret vote was taken, wher,
each patrolman could express his pri
vate conviction without coercion o.
fear, and this vote was heavil!
against the hospital plan.
ut is an excellent sign. There ar,
too many groups making a business
of charity, and the people are getting
tired of it. Enough is taken from
the general public in money every yea

equalities of the present system, i
