Excerpt from History of Poor Relief Legislation in Iowa That the present plan of public poor relief in Iowa, which is largely inherited without substantial change from the laws of a much earlier day, can be improved and made really serviceable is shown by the experience of Indiana with a system which until recent years was equally as primitive. Furthermore, the need of amendments is clearly shown by the fact that, since the Civil War the law-makers have gradually been turning away from attempts to im prove the poorhouse and outdoor systems of relief to efforts to formulate preventive measures and con structive laws for the care of children and other special classes of dependents. Perhaps it is now time that attention should again be turned to the long-established institutions, namely the poorhouse and outdoor relief, with the purpose of introducing scientific methods.
