WH^T BEGGARS MAKB INYKAR
a^New York ia perhaps the ftret city
to make a census of her beggar*.
There are 2,000 regulars and 1,700
casuals, and between them they collect
f^pqt $2,000,000 yearly.
Chicago has 1,500 beggars. Boston
has about 1,000. Philadelphia rather
more. ,
It is believed that 7,000 people out
of London*# 7,000,000 gain a living by
begging and that the public presents
them with a sum of nearly $1,000,000 ,
a year.
It would seem, therefore, that abou.t
, one in a thousand of the population!
of the great cities of Britain and (
America are beggars and that the (
proportion is even greater in Paris,
Madrid and Liidxm.
Ryme is about the only capital city |
in. Europe where beggars do not thrive
and that is a change brought about (
entirely by the Mussolini regime, for |
10 years ago, Rome had at least 4,000
beggars and Naples even more.
Th?' combined population of the'
capital cities of Europe exceeds 3,-; ,
000,0'H), so that if the ave.rage holds j
good of only one beggar in 1,000 j (
people, t use cities alone have 30,000.
beggars. If their average taking"!
are $500 a head in. a year we have.
$15,000,000given awny?or one
shoul 1 say thrown* away?ir. every
twelve month".
Bu . of course, it is not in capital
eitie alone that beg-ars flourish.
Eve t >v r of any size has its quota.;
It i rate I 'hat in Europe and
North America alone the sums given
away to this class of ,adg??r vx.-ccJ.*.
$ 150,000,000.
It is in tin* East that the beggar
flourishes l>esi of ali. He is the: c
regarded as a holy man. and food
and drink are given to him without j
question. That is why the east of!
today i" still a paradise for the beg-;
gar who can cleverly pretend.

New Era Has Begun
(Columbia State)
Manufacturers Record (Baltimore)
devotee 13 pages of its February 19
nurriber to describing in text and pictures
the great Saluda river hydroelectric
development near Columbia,
under the general head, "New Era
Opens for South Carolina," adopting
the idea presented by the recent New
Era edition of The State,
Thirteen illustration* portray the
vast project in various aepects. Two
of the 11 photographs used were from
the air by the "Curtiss-Wright service.
An. editorial foreword runs as follows:
' *
"The opportunities opening before
South Carolina are many and varied
The .State is due to make a marked
advance.
"Completion of the Saluda dam and
hydro-electric plant, as described in
these pages, is an event in industrial
levelbpment Which cannot fail to
stimulate in a very great degree the
industrial life of the whole state-.
It is a creative enterprise of the first
magnitude. Tts possibilities for irflustrial
communities and for the wellbeing
of the people throughout the
urea it is intended to serve are vast.
"In considering the opportunity before
South Carolina, it may be noted
that there are found here not only
such resources as equable climate, fertile
soil, forest wealth and large clay
urea?, but a!- > . rrc-pc-tation facilities
and power in ample supply.
One 'f the first steps in the direction
of combined effort ar.J initiative
toward-' state w do unbuilding
wu- taken in the decision to spend
f 0 (,(,*;<) ii. ireafng 1 great statewide
highway -wtem. With the discovery.
of the high iodine content of
' p. i S.?uth Carolina
'hunched a movement destined to expand
its a_'ricuit ui a! and food-processing
industries.
"So with these eon.-truvti\e moves
of v;ta! and basic important*. South
Carolina has inaugurated a new era
?an era which opens up vast possibilities
for it- people ;yul for those
who settle within ts borders."
The Home Fires
Hundreds of people are standing
on the streets of every town, more
are riding on the highways one! fow
are working. These are common observations,
daily open to the public
view; and yet every one is wondering
what is the matter with the world
and the times and why things are
as they are. Homo life is forgotten.
F.asy transportation has lifted the
lid off the domestic peace that once
ruled supreme, teaches, picture .-hows
and other like attractions, and the
home is -imply a place sr. which t>
sleep and sometimes eat. When 1 .c

"Tried preparations that kill rata,
