An Interesting Letter on Tramps and Work Tests
The letter argues tramps arise from laziness not finance and cites French and Parisian experiments offering four francs a day for unskilled labor tied to letters of introduction. It describes the results showing low uptake and few who sustained work, concluding the issue reflects systemic laziness rather than economic structure. It also notes Opera House notices and local business consolidation of Sanborn Phillips & Co.
