NOME, ALASKA, NOV. 2. 1916..
New York city has learned the les
son O. hok .o C.I. .Oi iuuul.O Hti,a
fathers have been removed by death,
or woo .or on. reason oi anu.ner .a.i
to provide for their children and m.Jte
them a public coarge. in other wonts
the me.ropoi.s has learned us duty,
the manliest uuty of good govern
ment, to pro. me lor those oi us citi
zens whom un.or.unate circumstance
has brougnt .o d_s.uu.ion ana Caus
ed them to become a public charge.
The old way of uoing what New
York is doing was to place them in an
institution, to break up the home, to
turn the mother out to make her own
way and in the end reap a crop oi
incompetent, shiftless, characterless
orphans wno were ..nally uisciaig. .
from the asylums with no place 'j
go and no Job to provide them au
existence.
New York has found that the moth
ers pension system is the practica.
solution of the question of provid
ing homes for the fatherless orphan.
•New York be. eves in t.ie m'l.iiers
pension to the extent that It has ex
pended ninety five million dollars up
to August first to care for families
that would otherwise be broken up
and rentier ■ 1 Also New York Las
found that the system is a less ex
ptnsive way .1 piot'u.ng homy* for
fu.he• less eti ’ Hen cut asylums. Alsc
It has the id.'-'ragp of providing
home life and re.ac Mr'.sphere and,
move all, mother love for the fathor
ic" *•
Only those who have never know)
a home will fail to realize the value
c-f mother's love >c the youthful and
innocent. However poor the home
mu> be, providing there are no Im
moral tendencies contained, it is better
for .he child than an institution w’th
,aitl keebers. Home life, the hyme
atmosphere, mothers' counsel and 'he
i tsponsibiliticf that grow up in su.'h
surroundings all make for a sturdier
cbaiacter, a better citizen, than *!ie
best kind of paid institutions.
Anyway, New York is pleased wltn
the plan and has appoinied a child
welfare board under Mayor Ml'chell
to administer IL Since the date cf
the appointment, August 6, 1916. the
child welfare board has received
more than nine thousand apuliuu
tions from widowed mothers seeking
assistance, and allowances have been
granted to one thousand one hundred.
The law has set no maximum cn
the amount that may be granted, bu
board has decided that no allowance
will be granted in excess of 600 per
month. Most of the allowances are
far below that figure, however. Ol
of the pensions now in force, fifteen
families are receiving no more than
ten dollars a month, four hundred
and four are receiving from t< n to
twenty dollars, three hundred and
thirteen from twenty to thirty dollars
two hundred and fifteen receive thir
ty to forty dollars and the remainder
fiom forty to sixty.
Considering that a few dollars a
month In a family deprived of *ts
bread winner are often sufficient to
maintain the home in comparative
comfort when It would otherwise have
to be abondoned, the good work of
N«w York Is worthy of the highest
encomturh. This is one of the high
est duties of government to assist
those woh through misfortune are
unable to provide for themselves.
