Millionaire Tramp Who Helped the Homeless Quits Tramping
Edwin A. Brown known as the millionaire tramp and cousin of New York Central president W. C. Brown declares he will not tramp again. He plans to continue aiding the homeless by different means after years of living the life to learn their needs. Brown, a Denver real estate holder, recounts his early days as a theater extra and his rough nights with the poor in cities from Cleveland to Dallas. He credits Taft with praise for his charity work and notes plans to study European programs. A separate anecdote describes color’s effect on warmth as Franklin observed through colored handkerchiefs, illustrating how black absorbs heat while white reflects it.

In London on May 26 progressive MPs strive to block the aliens bill proposed by EH A Goulding in committee while Conservatives and some Liberals push to report it back. The bill would require all alien immigrants to register their abode with police and submit to oversight, a measure the Morning News says masks a real aim to criminalize foreign birth rather than curb crime.
