Al Smith as New York Assembly minority leader on March 24 1915 spoke during the third reading of the Widows Pension Act urging the bill to conserve family life. He argues that providing state support to widows and children strengthens citizens and replaces a punitive charity system with government duty.
A speaker urges reverence for New York State and its sovereign power, criticizing slow conservation of natural resources and ad hoc legislation. He claims vast taxpayer funds flow into channels while policy neglects helping the poorest, invokes divine providence, and ties legislation to a celestial blessing. The item closes noting that Little Martin Myers has been ill at home for several days.
