JAMES SPEYER PROPOSES “SETTLEM ENTS” AMONG RICH.
T the exercises com m em orating the tw enty-fifth anniversary of
the founding of the University Settlem ent of New York Jam es
Speyer created a mild sensation by saying th a t he wondered
w hether the college men and women of the east side institution
"could not also do very good work by establishing a settlem ent near Cen­
tral park nnd studying the conditions am ong the well to do and rich.”
They m ight, he continued, find that, while the east side fam ilies were
too large for hnpplness, the uptown fnmllles were too small, and that,
while the children of the very poor got Into trouble because they had
too few opportunities for play, those of the rich w ent wrong for the very
opposite reason. Mr. Speyer has had abundant opportunity to know
how both halves live, for he la a wealthy banker who has long interested
him self In philanthropy. He is treasurer of the Provident Loan society,
which lends money to the needy at proper rates of interest, and gave
