ernment. California's acceptance OF this
plan was strong influence for the en-
actment of similar legislation in other
States. Before the end of 1880 the two
big industrial commonwealths of MasSa-
chusetts and New York had passed man
datory laws, and today more than three
fourths of all the old-age pensioners in
the Nation are accounted for by Cali
fornia, Massachusetts and New York.
New York alone is paying monthly old
age relief to more than $1,000 pensioners.
To be eligible for old-age relief in New
York State the applicant must be at
least 10 years old, without means OF sup
port, with no children or other person
able and responsible for his support; he
must be a citizen of the United States,
must have lived in the State at least 10
years prior to his application, and in
the local district for at least one year;
also he must not be an inmate of any
institutional home for the aged, poor,
sick or INDECENT. The applicant who
owns funds or securities Of value not
exceeding $3.50 is rated as eligible, since
the administration rules that $3.50 is
about the minimum that would be
needed; for last illness and burial
expenses.

The present economic situation has
indeed heightened the troubles of the

a job, more difficult for their unemployed

has quickened the public's recognition
of it's responsibility for the aged poor.

BALTIMORE, Oct. 11.-sir
Herbert Samuel. successor to
David Lloyd George as leader of
England's Liberal party, speak
ing at Johns Hopkins University
under the James Schouler lee

the 1881 crisis was brought on
by the efforts of political leaders
to pacify the electorate by en-
actment of measures the tax
payers could not afford.
He indicated that in the United
States one of those measures the
taxpayers could not afford was
that of granting pensions to
veterans. Speaking of England'S
crisis, Sir Herbert said:
"The late Labor government
was to some extent to blame
for that. The Conservative
party also was to blame"
