ATTITUDE TOWARD "OUR DESTITUTE OLD" Woodside Takes Exceptions to Positions of Clergy and The Sun Believes Situation More Seri- ous Than Higher Taxes or Evils of Gambling In a letter relating to the protest of Protestant clergymen of Lewiston and Auburn against legislation "favorable to and gambling," Tileston E. of lotteries, Sabattus, expresses his disapproval of their apparent attitude and the attitude of The Sun, toward "the problem of our destitute old While not in favor of legalizing a lottery, Mr. Woodside believes the situation is more serious than higher taxes or the evils of gambling, as it is a "damning example of man's inhumanity to His letter follows: To the Editor: On Monday of this week, The Sun published letter, addressed to the Maine House of Representatives and signed by the Protestant of Lewiston- -Auburn, protesting, against "favorable the to enactment lotteries legislation and So far as I am aware, the only lottery bill under consideration by the Legislature, is the one passed by the House, which stipulates pa that the proceeds shall be used to finance an Old Age Pension law. I think it is a fair inference to draw, from the face of the bill, that its underlying purpose is, not to promote gambling, although such would undoubtedly be its effect. but, rather, to provide funds for the destitute old people of Maine.
The press reports this morning state that the bill will again be brought up in the House and a motion made for its indefinite postponement. Before this can be published, the bill will letter, likely have been thus disposed of. Such a result, however, will have no bearing on the purpose for which this communication is written. I am not in favor of legalizing a lottery Neither am I in with titude indicated the apparent accord, lack of interest (SO far as their letter discloses) on the part of the Lewiston- -Auburn Protestant clergymen, in the very serious problem which is responsible for this particular lottery bill, viz; the problem of our destitute old people. Can it be possible that these Protestant clergymen are maintaining the same attitude towards this problem, 28 The Lewiston Daily Sun, which on its front page.

If such is their attitude, then should they not have urged in their letter that Legislature provide some other they of financing their Old Age Pension Law, instead of simply contenting themselves protesting against the lottery, method? Can one imagine to whose work they have dedicated their lives permitting such an opportunitv to pass without lifting His voice in behalf of the afflicted and the distressed. whose troubles were ever the first object of His loving care? In writing this letter I do not presume to judge either editors or clergymen. I know they are good men. Some are among my closest friends and I know that their lives are replete with good deeds.
But am bound to express my disagreemnent with their apparent attitude towards this particular problem. For here this problem is fuel for the Demagogue to fan. Here, is dark Despair which finds expression in the stories of the suicides of the aged, which are daily to be found in the pages of the press. Here is something more serious than higher taxes or the evils of gambling. -for here is a situation which is a damning example of 'man's inhumanity to man." If any of these clergymen have sat.
