In a plea to the rich one of the authors says, inter alia
-
The history of the past in all ages goes to show that during such periods of
depression the rich become richer and the poor poorer... During the winter
season many of [the rich] are... in the habit of giving large parties...
would it not be practicable... to set apart a small portion of the estimated
cost for the benefit of the poor...
