Excerpt from The Danish Poor Relief System: An Example for England

This is a subject on which for years past there has been practically but one opinion in Denmark, even among politicians; and in 1891 two laws were passed, the Poor Law Reform Bill and the old-age Relief Bill, for the express purpose of ensuring that every destitute person in the kingdom should, so far as possible, be dealt with according to his merits. To these measures very special interest is attached, owing to the fact that they are the first systematic attempt on the part of latter-day legislators to discriminate between paupers and paupers.
