CONGRESS- is REMIss.

But in view of the fact that Congress

ter, wnat are we 10 du?'' asked Judge KIM
bail of the police court, in discussing the
subject with n Times reporter. lit is
awful to send these young people down
among the hardened or iininals of the
workhnuse and jail. 1t simply hardens
them to II greater degree. The Boys Reform
Schoul is excelentiy conducted. but it is
banIpered for want OF space.
Under existing circumstances / know
OF bat one remedy to save a portion of the
young nien anyhow. Let the Reform School
officials have power TO grant q ticket-of-
leave to those who are discharged from the
institution If they violate their parole
before they are twenty-une years old let
them be brought back without further
commitment.
''If a boy is taken in before be is sixteen
and Is discharged and then commits an
other nffensc when he Is a month over
sixteen he cannot be taken back, but must
go among the criminals OF the prison. This
is emincntly improper, and the youth, when
most susceptible To- the influence of good
or bad, is cast away on the evil side and
his future is nodded.

JUDGE KIMBALL's VIEWS.

NOW, about the Girls Reform School
continued Judge Kimball, lit gals me tn
think of il. With others, worked very
hard in the winter of 1924 to get au ap-
preparation for it. l even succeeded in
getting the President to touch upon it in
his message. Congress appropriated $35,
600, that might have been put into two
buildings that would have accommodated
about sevcnty-five girls.
The money was all sunk In one build
ing that would accommodate nineteen girls.
by building additions and by crowding
they are now able to keep thirty girls
there.
There are fully 200 girls in this city
who ought TO be there. There are hundreds
of them in the District that are annually
graduating into vice. and il they could
be kept amid wholesome surroundings for
one year at life's curve between girlheod
and womanhood they would be saved.
But, as with the boys, there is no
place TO put them. Congress character
istically overlooks them like many other
things of interest to the District. Only yes
terday I sent girl TO the school that
have been holding in the workhouse for
six weeks in order to get her In.
THE Times should take up the fight and
work for an increase in the appropriation
for the two institutions. As Representa-.
tive Henderson expressed it when the
subject Of the Girls Reform School was
broached, 1t is a disgrace to the cap
ital OF the nation that so many young peo-
pie should be permitted to go down to
ruin in her walls when it can be easily
prevented"

younger.
