HOW TO HELP The NEEDY
Nebraska Conference Of Charities and Cor
reotions il in Session.
ADDRESS BY E. BENJAMIN ANDREWS
students of ATairs Discuss How the
Fortunate May he of Assistance TO
the unfortunate-Procee
in General.

The Nebraska conference of Charities
and Corrections convened In annual ses-
sion Thursday afternoon In the assembly
room OF the Young Mems Christian asso-
citation building. About 100 delegates were
present the majority being women. The
meeting was called to order by the presi-
dent, Guy c. Barton. In the absence OF
Mayor Moores. who was to deliver the ad-
dress OF welcome, Judge j. NJ. Woolworth
welcomed the delegates to the city. The
secretary, A. w. Clark. read letter from
Mayor Moores, in which he expressed re-
gret that he could not be present, stating
that important business required his alb
sence from the city.
Those who took part in the meeting
were Rev. Dr. c. s. Sargent, T. II. Tib-
bles, c. f. Prevey and Thomas Fitzpatrick.
A resolution was adopted indorsing house
roll III, which provides for the establish
ment of a State Board Of Charities and Cor
rection, and expressing the hope that the
bill would pass.
II was suggested that a committee be
appointed to draft bill to be introduced
at some future session of the legislature
providing for the establishment of a
Juvenile court for conducting the prelirni-
nary hearings OF Juvenile offenders and to
| make further provisions for the paroling
OF criminals. A motion TO this effect was
| passed and the chair asked for time in
which to decide upon the personnel OF the
| committee
DR.. Sargent said In part: I'VE have
| gone to work to better the prisons and
the reformatories, but we have neglected
| the jails. where criminal character is often
| formed In Omaha, in both city and county
jail, those who are In charge are doing
| the best they can under the limited con-
ditions. There Is not room enough in the
county Jail with the federal prisoners,
state prisoners and county prisoners, to
separate properly the young from the older
criminals. Especially is this true In the
woman's department. Everything is clean
in our jails and all this work that can be
done under present conditions Is done, but
what we need is preliminary court In
| Omaha for young offenders, such as mas
been found so beneficial In certain eastern
| cities, notably Boston"
