Excerpt from Outdoor Relief in Missouri: A Study of Its Administration by County Officials

So serious and so well proved are the charges against county outdoor relief in Missouri that the people of the commonwealth can not hold themselves guiltless so long as these abuses remain or the evils continue. So clear, so reasonable, and so necessary are the recommendations that inaction can only mean indifference to the welfare of the poor and of the state, a penny-wise-pound foolish policy, or moral cowardice.

There are no reasons for thinking that the conditions with respect to outdoor relief in the country districts of Missouri are very different from those in other central and southern states. This report has, therefore, more than local significance.
