...refined and generally accepted form of begging, no fault is to be found with those who carry on this occupation for worthy ends. One may be annoyed, just as perhaps one is by the Salvation Army canvas on the Larz Anderson Bridge, but the worthiness of the cause would seem to be sufficient justification of the means employed in furthering...
