Philadelphia Press-Loafing illegal in New York now, Governor Whitman having signed a law to that effect. Similar laws have made loafing illegal in several other States as well The policy of ronading up people who are able to work but don't work because they are able in one way or another to get along without it, is spreading over the country."
