Hearst's Chicago American reports Belgium found it cheaper to employ the unemployed on large work farms than grant charity. About 4,000 to 6,000 men seasonally work on three farms with workshops, self-sustaining output, and bright, communal housing. Government cost last year was $25 per man, far below English workhouses. There are two women colonies as well.

Rabbits in Politics
Commentary likens office holding to becoming a rabbit the way newspaper men lose bold opinions after entering politics. Cites Del Valentine and Congressman Charley Scott as examples of reduced public stance, noting even an elderly editor with tenure becomes cautious and withdrawn.
