Pour l’oeuvre de la Soupe<\/p>\n

Qui, \u00e0 Montr\u00e9al, ne connait l\u2019Oeuvre de la Soupe de l\u2019Asile de la Providence, rue Saint-Hubert, pr\u00e8s de la rue Sainte-Catherine ? Des premiers jours de l\u2019hiver jusqu\u2019au printemps, tous les matins entre 8h et 11h, on peut voir des centaines de sans-travail d\u00e9filer devant un guichet par o\u00f9 la main des religieuses leur sert une alimentation saine et substantielle. L\u2019Oeuvre a donn\u00e9 en 1931 deux cent quatre-vingt mille (280,000) repas [\u2026] Ce chiffre sera probablement d\u00e9pass\u00e9 de beaucoup en 1932. En comptant \u00e0 5 ou 6 sous seulement le prix moyen du repas, la d\u00e9pense ne saurait \u00eatre inf\u00e9rieure \u00e0 vingt mille dollars pour l\u2019ann\u00e9e en cours, non compris les services, le combustible et autres frais accessoires int\u00e9gralement support\u00e9s par les S\u0153urs de la Providence.<\/p>\n

Ce que l\u2019Asile de la Providence fait pour les ch\u00f4meurs, d\u2019autres \u00e9tablissements congr\u00e9ganistes le font aussi, quoique sur une moindre \u00e9chelle : il suffira de mentionner \u00e0 cet \u00e9gard la Soupe de S\u0153ur Bonneau, dans le quartier Bonsecours. Mais ce qu\u2019il y a de nouveau dans ce mouvement d\u2019assistance, c\u2019est la participation active de corps enseignants qui s\u2019\u00e9taient jusqu\u2019ici born\u00e9s \u00e0 le seconder par des souscriptions p\u00e9cuniaires, presque toujours tenues cach\u00e9es. Une religieuse de la Congr\u00e9gation de Notre-Dame nous disait il y a quelque temps qu\u2019\u00e0 la maison-m\u00e8re, rue Sherbrooke, on donnait tous les jours des centaines de repas.<\/p>\n

Moins heureuses toutefois que certains comit\u00e9s civils tels que la Croix-Rouge et l\u2019Emergency Relief \u2013 dont l\u2019action d\u00e9sint\u00e9ress\u00e9e, s\u2019exer\u00e7ant en dehors des pr\u00e9occupations confessionnelles, est d\u2019ailleurs au-dessus de tout \u00e9loge \u2013 les congr\u00e9gations religieuses, qui, du c\u00f4t\u00e9 catholique, supportent presque seules la lourde obligation de nourrir les ch\u00f4meurs c\u00e9libataires et les sans-abri [sic], ne re\u00e7oivent presque rien des pouvoirs publics. Nous avons d\u00e9j\u00e0 signal\u00e9 que sur les cent mille dollars souscrits en tiers par la Ville, par Ottawa et par Qu\u00e9bec, pour cette cat\u00e9gorie de n\u00e9cessiteux, la Ville avait attribu\u00e9 $92,500 aux comit\u00e9s protestants et neutres et $7,500 \u00e0 la Soci\u00e9t\u00e9 de Saint-Vincent de Paul, qui a humblement acquiesc\u00e9 \u00e0 cette r\u00e9partition. C\u2019est de cette pitance de $7,500, partag\u00e9e entre elles, que les institutions catholiques doivent se contenter. Il ne faut donc pas s\u2019\u00e9tonner que devant des besoins toujours croissants le Comit\u00e9 de Patronage de l\u2019Oeuvre de la Soupe, compos\u00e9 de personnes charitables qui paient elles-m\u00eames de leur temps et de leur argent, sollicite le concours p\u00e9cuniaires [sic] du public. Une souscription d\u2019un dollar assurera 15 jours de soupe, une souscription de $2 un mois, de $5 trois mois, de $10 six mois, de $20 une ann\u00e9e. Malgr\u00e9 la crise, combien de familles sont encore en \u00e9tat de pourvoir \u00e0 ce prix \u00e0 l\u2019existence d\u2019un malheureux durant au moins six mois. Quel bonheur de penser, le soir en se mettant au lit, qu\u2019on aura eu qu\u2019\u00e0 se priver durant la journ\u00e9e d\u2019une d\u00e9pense inutile de quelques sous, pour permettre \u00e0 un malheureux de manger plein son ventre. Ceux de nos lecteurs qui n\u2019ont pas encore \u00e9puis\u00e9 leur budget de bienfaisance \u2013 et quand on voit les foules qui se pressent aux joutes sportives et dans les th\u00e9\u00e2tres, comment croire qu\u2019ils ne sont pas encore nombreux ? \u2013 tiendront \u00e0 honneur de r\u00e9pondre g\u00e9n\u00e9reusement \u00e0 cet appel.<\/p>\n

The Local Travellers\u2019 Aid is the present moment appealing for financial assistance and we can think of few, if any, enterprises more worthy of support. Indeed it is doing a work that, strictly speaking, it would appear to be the duty of public authorities to perform though whether the present efficiency would be increased or even maintained thereby is quite another question.<\/p>\n

Since 1887 the Travellers\u2019 Aid has been successfully combatting the various dangers that beset the paths of young women, girls and children who travel alone and forty-one full-time workers are now carrying on this splendid protective mission from one coast of Canada to the other.<\/p>\n

Here in Quebec, during the past year, no fewer than 5,939 persons were met; of whim 446 were brought to the Y.W.C.A., 353 to Le Foyer, 250 to hotels or boarding houses, and 67 to hospitals; in addition to which 84 visits were paid. Such a record of activity is literally amazing in view of the fact that it is the work of only two salaried workers, one of whom is employed for the full twelve months and the other merely for the season of navigation. It can only be understood when the additional fact is stated that their hours of duty are from 5.45 am until midnight in the summer and frome 11 am until midnight in the winter.<\/p>\n

“Secours aux indigents par les institutions de charit\u00e9 et autres<\/p>\n

Le refuge de nuit doit \u00eatre d\u2019un c\u00f4t\u00e9 une maille dans la cha\u00eene des institutions municipales, non seulement comme un devoir public et un agent pour supporter l\u2019individu qui faiblit dans la lutte pour la vie ou qui est forc\u00e9 de devenir un indigent par des causes \u00e9conomiques, mais une institution o\u00f9 l\u2019on peut recevoir un secours temporaire. D\u2019un autre c\u00f4t\u00e9, il doit \u00eatre une protection de la soci\u00e9t\u00e9 contre la d\u00e9gradation, la nuisance ou le crime des individus qui deviendraient par le fait m\u00eame, non seulement une charge aux particuliers, mais \u00e0 la soci\u00e9t\u00e9 toute enti\u00e8re. En un mot, le refuge de nuit doit \u00eatre maintenu et administr\u00e9 par la municipalit\u00e9, comme une institution gouvernementale. Je crois qu\u2019il y a deux facteurs essentiels au succ\u00e8s d\u2019un refuge municipal ; le premier, est la coop\u00e9ration de tous les services publics, et le second, la coop\u00e9ration du public lui-m\u00eame.<\/p>\n

Il s\u2019agit de la mis\u00e8re des c\u00e9libataires ch\u00f4meurs de Montr\u00e9al. Ils sont plusieurs centaines qui ne re\u00e7oivent aucun secours direct et qui sont, par le fait m\u00eame, condamn\u00e9s \u00e0 vivre dans la rue et \u00e0 subir les pires privations. Beaucoup sont des jeunes, revenus des camps de concentration, ferm\u00e9s depuis juillet, et les autres, des hommes, venus d’un peu partout. A vrai dire, il y a, pour ces d\u00e9sh\u00e9rit\u00e9s du sort, le refuge municipal Meurling, mais qu\u2019on se rende bien compte que c\u2019est un refuge de nuit. Les \u00ab clients \u00bb doivent entrer \u00e0 sept heures le soir ; ils se lavent, mangent une couple de sandwiches au \u00ab balon\u00e9 \u00bb et se couchent. Le r\u00e9veil a lieu \u00e0 six heures et demie, et apr\u00e8s le d\u00e9jeuner, consistant dans la m\u00eame chose que le souper, les \u00ab pensionnaires \u00bb sont cong\u00e9di\u00e9s, beau ou mauvais temps Donc, \u00e0 partir de sept heures du matin, tous ces hommes sont sans abri.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis is the first in a series of short films titled \u2018Montreal: The City of Progress,\u2019 produced by Associated Screen News for the Industrial Commission on Unemployment during the Great Depression of the 1930s. It was likely shown in Montreal cinemas in 1932. Scenes feature the paving or widening of various streets, including De Bullion, Melrose, H\u00f4tel-de-ville, C\u00f4te-Saint-Luc, Notre-Dame, Sherbrooke, Pie IX, and Du Parc. The film also shows the paving of a Montreal alleyway. Originally, it would have been a silent film. During the 1970s, a soundtrack with songs by La Bolduc (Mary Travers) and period music was added.\u201d (Source: AVM).<\/span><\/p>\n
