STATE BOARD OF CHARITIES
AND CORRECTIONS

The reports Of the hearing before
the legislative committee on the
proposition to replace the State
Board Of Charities and Corrections
by a single commissioner indicate
considerable interest, but no start
rehonsible conduct on the part of the
Board or any of its agents. The i'm
pressions conveyed by these reports
are to the effect that the Board has
done much work and made compare
lively few mistakes.
Evidently it has antagoniZed some.
This must he expected. There may
be need Of certain changes in the
methods employed. We do not know.
But there is ~ feature which we re-
gard as very Impressive and that is
the absolute lack of evidence that the
Board has in any way been influenced
by what are commonly termed poll
tical considerations. This is much
more than is being said about the
1eGeIdl bureau Nllltn mas GILL sc vi
the affairs of the disabled veterans,
and which is believed to have been
handicapped and made eXtravagant
and inefficient because tainted with
the "spoi!s' system. Nothing like
,hs may be said of the State Board
If Charities and Corrections and we
are glad Of it and proud of it.
There seems to be a reason for this
excellent feature. The Board is not
made UP of salaricd persons. Desire
to accomplish good results appears to
be the incentive for the members of
that board TO undertake its duties.
They are appointed by the Governor
for term of five years. They in turn
selec. secretary, but he must be
approved by the Governor and Coun-
Gil and is subject to removal by them.
Complaint has been made that it is
difficult 'to put a finger on them"
This complaint does not seem to be
substantiatod. There should be good
reasons. Wcighty reasons, for making
any radical change, if that is to be
done.

TO FINISH A TREMENDOUS
TASK

To see children starving, children
hemmed in by conditions over which
they have no control, orphaned and
deprived of support by war and
pestilcnce, too often surrounded by
those who in fanatical hearts wish
them dead, is an awful sight. Such
scene has been so graphically set
before us, has been SO conclusively
confirmed by evidence. that we may
not shut 1t out. 1t haunts and will
not cease from troubling until we
shall have done what we may to re-
lieve the situation.
Were this not so people would not
now, after all the demands there
have been on their capacity for CIV
ing, make the effort which they are
making to relieve the situation.
Briefly this is that the food and sup
plies, in the effort to save hundreds
of thousands Of people from fearful
death, which had been collected at
Smyrna from which these orphaned
waits might have been fed, were
used. Unless this store may be re-
plenished $4,000 of these children
must die this winter. Maine is
asked to contribute $4,000 of which
Augusta is expected to give at least
$4,000.
In this instance those who may
wish to give may be assured that
what they give will be wisely dis
tributed. The Near East Relief is
known the world over. 1t already
has performed a tremendous task,
commanding the worlds respect and
admiration in the doing of it. Shall
it be enabled to finish this work?
That is the answer which will be
given this next week.

Insurance Companies
Refuse Policies
To BOOtleggers.

Pittsburg, Feb. 16.-While the
regularly constituted authorities are
experiencing some difficulty in
locating wealthy bootleggers, i'm
portant life insurance interests say
they are finding them with compare
tive ease and. because of the "molal
hazard" involved, are refusing to in
sure their lives.
Men who q few years ago were
glad to carry policies covering Few
thousand, are now making appIca-
ton for policies ranging from s50.O0O
to 100000, and in some instances in
excess of the latter amount. Unless
they are well known and have a high
business standing they are very
carefully investigated, and If there Is
any suspicion as to the source OF
their incomes, they are rejected. 1t
matters not how good a physical
risk the examining physicians decide
they may be.
Within the past few weeks one ap-
plicant who wanted a policy OF $780,
900 was rejected on the ground that
he was not a good moral hazard,
and a little later an applicant VINO
wanted insurance to the amount OF
$1,000 was told he could not nave
it. Other applications from other
bootleggers have gone the same way.
they say.
we count the moral hazard as
something worth while said an in
surance authority. discussing the
business offered his company by
bootleggcrs. I'VE feel we cannot af-
ford to take on men of this kind. and
rather than compromise morals. we
refuse all such applications. How do
we know they are bootleggers? When
we see man grow suddenly llch.
without any visible means. we are
suspicious. and a little investigation
usually tells US whether We are right
or wrong. 1t might be difficult for
us to prove it IN court, but we prove
it to our own satisfaction. with a
reasonable mental margin of safety
