Indicted Gang Bosses Condemned by Philadelphia Minister
The Rev Cassius M Roberts former St Timothys rector in Philadelphia delivered a forceful sermon denouncing gang bosses for looting the city. He urged voters to back the city party ticket, citing tainted bonds and taxes that burdened the poor with high rents and bad water while the rich escaped. He described a poor mother with typhoid children and a faucet delivering murky water as proof of corruption. The address, reported by the Philadelphia North American, drew intense audience interest though no protest occurred.
