Says Charity Begins at Heme
le tht Editor of the Et enina PubUe Ledger'
Sir I netlctd a recent ltter In your
caper advecatlnc the disposal of the bil
lion dollars that the allies ewe us, as a
rtiult of war debts, te aid the countries et
Europe In reconstruction and university
klp. At first theiutht this mav aeem very
Judicious, After examination It docs cot
appesr wholly se.
About once a ycar.t usually at Christmas
time, when the cold weather sets In. we
rtn te take heed of the peer and helpless
et our own country, who bee for aid, re
rtlvlrc none from the central government
tad e.-y little from private citizens.
It Is my opinion that out own people
eeght le ba taken care of befere we deem
ourselves ready te assist our European
brothers. W also knew that In our own
Universities there are many who intend with
great hardship, being forced te work during
the dastlme and attend school In the eve
riles, in elher cases education Is discon
tinued after the elementary school grades
fctvt besn completed We could alto use
few millions te endow colleges sa that
they could civs raore peeple suitable educa
tion. Don't ou think that with senu of
this money we could pay the ex-service
tueu a bonus?
I believe that we could find numereus
channels te divert thlH money se as te
M of aid te our own Instltutlena and our
ewn pwple. America can easily consume
the bllllun dollars In the betterment of
I's people t's Institutions and ta govern gevern
tteit Te need net turn le foreign coun
tries and feielim people te spend money
that was raised by our peeple for our own
country. !3y all means we must collect
the European war debts te show that In
ternational debts are legal debts and must
PS pild even though lhy cause hardship

What's In a Name?
Te tht Editor of tht Evening PiibHc Ledger:
Sir Shakespeare has aptly said, "What's
In n name?" Many yeara age when our
nation wna an Infant, this city was called
"The Cradle of Liberty." It was an ap ap
preprlate tltle then, but we outlived It as
we grew up, Phliadelphlans seem te, lone
ace, Inve outgrown their former title of
"City of Brotherly Leve " it wis replaced
with the title of "City of Hemes," but
then the war came along and the profiteers
ret held of the real eilatn and we lest
that tills. In fact, today no one who Is
net se burled In the city that he cannot
see the light from the outside but feels that
we are a nlcknhmel"ss elf. Seme en has
suerestcd "The Cliy of the Unburled
Dead." but even this Is Inappropriate, as
can be attested by the great number of
ceneterles In the heart of the cits, well
filled with these who were overcome with
the lethargy existing here, and who are
burled right In the midst of the marts of
trade and :iet are undlsturled en ncceunt of
the general quiet that exists here.
Seme one has said, and well said, that
them. It Is alwas the cry of "free
srecch" snd our Constitution when these
men are disposed te arcue, but our Con
stitution upholds our Government quite ns
much as it duet free speech. Seme of the
sentences have been quite severe, but all
these who are aufferirc were warned as te
thelr fate, and they simply Invited It by
defying thn Qevernment. se I see no reason
for net allowing- thorn te repent at leisure,
and especially these men who have re
fused te change their views and acknewl
ed;e that the? were nrenr,

The CHurch and Strangers
'Je tht Editor of fits Eurtitnp Public Ledger:
Sir As te the inanv criticisms of Phila
delphia that we read In Ih newspapers
and hesr en all sides from visitors and
recent residents. I feel that the reason we
have secured the reputntlnn of bclne un
sociable In emit ely due le tlie ittmnepncre
of our churches I hiuc studled condi
tions liere nnd in ether cities In this re
spct, aed I belleve. n a rule, Philadel
phia pistem nnd church members ntcd,
and need badlv. te be awakened te the
fact that as Christians It Is net alone up
le the pastors te preach deep theological
sermons, and the congregatle-s, na u matter
of form, te go te church, but thev should
awaken te the fact that the church Is the
great power for geed In our midst, but
we must leek further than the sermon
and the church edifice If we want te draw
peeple te Oed.
We cannot alt Idly by nnd feel that all
our duties ni Christiana nre performed In
allendlne Ihe church service. If we want
te brine geed te the greatest number of the
people It must be done outside of tn
church, but through It. Therr would be
little complaint among strangers In our
city that va are cold and Indifferent If the
church would take the Initiative It should J
and (hat Is te tho-eughly canvass Its vi
cinity nnd try te brine Inte the church the
newcomers In the section and make them
feel that It Is their social and religious ,
home.
lly opinion Is tliat Is Is the duty of the
pastors net alone te administer te their
"fleck," but te go out en the "highways
and bywaya" and brine In the "wandering
sheep." and when they are brought In they
should have extended te them the hand of
a cordial fellowship. This Is the duty of
the congregation. Nine out of every ten
men or women I belleve nre Inclined te be
geed and contented, but the) must have the
assisting hand of fellowship le help them
en that read.
I am sure It Is Philadelphia's Inconslrt Incenslrt Inconslrt
eratlen rather than Its lack of bretherl
love which tall out the manv complaints
we hear. We sheu'd be hospitable te every
one as n part of our religion We as Chris
tiana cannot clese our Ces te the fart that
there, are many strangers In our mldt hi
all times, as In even laree rlt who nre
looking for the hand of fellowship te tie ex
tended le them, te make them feel that
they are one of us rather than a "stranger
In a strange laud." Iho pastor and the
congregation can be made an Influence for
a vast amount of geed If they will enb
make the effort te help this class until they
get started. S. P DUNCAN
