These are the citizens of my new world the children without parents and the parents without children pressing eagerly toward each other and yet unable to reach each other. A barrier stands between a high wall and in the middle of the wall is a narrow gate kept locked until a social agency unlocks it a little way and lets one child through at a time. . . .Nobody knows truthfully how many children are in our orphanages. There are many kinds of orphanages. most children are not perfect and so on. They can be helped to want a handicapped children a child of mixed origin or any child at all. . . . We can tear down the walls that keep them prisoners of red tape prejudice and religious division. . . .
