But old ideals will have to be forsaken and new ones substituted.
I have for many years considered this question very deeply, and from the side of the very poor.

I think that I know how the difficulty can be met, and I am prepared to place my suggestions for housing the poor before any responsible person or authority who would care to consider the matter.
Perhaps it is due to the public to say here that one of the greatest sorrows of my life was my inability to make good a scheme that a rich friend and myself formulated some years ago.

This failure was due to the serious illness of my friend, and I hope that it will yet materialise.
But, in addition to the housing, there are other matters which affect the vigour and virility of the poor.

School days must be extended till the age of sixteen.

Municipal playgrounds open in the evening must be established.
