To those who are able to help themselves a little or have friends from whom they derive some succor, inadequate however to their full maintenance, supplementary aids are given which enable them to live comfortably in their own houses or in the houses of their friends.

Criminality and delinquency are not racial; poverty and ignorance breed crime whatever the racial group may be.”
