Yesterday just happened to be
.tblind" day at the bureau of
charity office in the city hall. Or
the 80 blind persons for whom
the bureau provides the necessi-
ties of life, nine happened in yes
terday for their weekly or special
allowances-an order for gro
ceries; a pair of shoes for some
member of the family; some
stockings for the youngsters; a
small check with which to pay
the rent; an order for a load of
wood and possibly a package Of
tobacco, by way of luxury,
Led by children, wives or by
the thump-thump of a cane, they
find their way into the little Of
flee which eventually knows the
troubles of Bernalillo countys
poor. Rabbi Noise Bergman or
Captain Guest, of the Salvation
Army, greet them as they enter
the doorway and seat them in
one Of the chairs near the desl.
Then there is cheerful con-
verSation at least on the part of
the greeters. The officials who
pass out the aid of the bureau of
charities know the most minute
details of the blind persons fam
lily, even in one case, the names
and ages of the eight children
and they inquire solicitously about
all things of pressing interest TO
the applicant for more assistance.
But the knowledge of each case
is not locked up in the minds of
Rabbi Bergman nor of Captain
Guest. the intimate details are on
file for future use and checking.
Lack of Funds.
Some of the blind cases have
been cared for by the bureau for
several years, some are new ones
cases where the sight has not
yet entirely left the eye, cases
which might be helped by opera
tion, If there was enough money
available to have the work done
In a proper way. With the at
tention which can be secured by
the bureau with its limited funds,
which must be stretched to care
for all kinds of cases. but few
eye operations have been success
full, in most cases the patient not
having enough intelligence to un-
derstand the need of care after
he or she had left the hospital.
A number of them have been
tried, however, but most were
failures as the patients were not
properly taken care of in their
homes and the bureau could not
afford to keep them in the hos
pitfalls when it was necessary to
pay much for the service.
with a hospital where we
could keep the patients after the
operation and until the eyes were
entirely healed, we would be able
to save the sight of many of our
poor people" Rabbi Bergman de
clared yesterday.
Although due to the lack of
funds and facilities. but little can
be done in the way of curing the
defects, which in most cases aTe
the reason why the case is regis
tered with the bureau, as the per-
sons were good wage earners be-
fore their affliction, they can be
furnished with enough to support
them either in their own little
homes, in rented shacks or at the
colony which is operated by the
bureau on its limited funds. which
are now derived from special
1-2 mill tax levied in the county
for this particular purpose.
For number of years the bu-
reau, which in fact acts as a
county and city poor farm, hos
pital and home for the blind and
infirm, was kept up by private
subscriptions to which were add

Jack Dempsey, le"lIlhlaI'
cartwright. need have few
worries over the newest lght
heavyweight champion of the
world. In the first place, he is
out of his weight class. In the
second place, Battling Sikh will
have to polish off a number of
tough eggs ever to get recogni-
ton from American promoters.
One Of the TOUGHEST eggs Bat
ting Ski has to hurdle is the
Black Panther of New Orleans,
Harry Wills. We doubt gravely
whether he can pass that barrier
on the way to Jack Dempsey and
the worlds heavywci~ht crown.
Francois Descamps, Carpenters
MANAGER, Is probably quite correct
in chastising his boxer for under
estimating Sikh. Personally, we
believe that Carpenters greatest
mistake was in directing his blows
to Skis head and jaw.
Sikh is not far removed from
the savare. At best he is a bar
harlan. He is young. He has all
the innate strength of n dweller
in the forests of Senegal, a
French province in Africa. He
