HOLDS DIFFERENT VIEW
BOARD OF CHARITIES DlsRE-
CARDS MIR. GAINES OPINION.
Act of Congress Quoted in Support Of
Right to Investigate Girlsf
Reform School.

The board of charities committee will
proceed with the investigation of the con-
ditions at the Reform School for Girls ac-
cording to the directions OF the District
Commissioners, Notwithstanding that Alex
ander e. Game, disbursfng. off1cer Of the
Department of Justice, ana the depart
ment's representative on the board of trus-
tees, has delivered an opinion holding that
the department has exclusive supervision
and control over the institution, and that
the Commissioners and the board of chart
ties have not even little bit to say with
reference to the conduct of the institution
which harbors citizens of the District.
The Commissioners, of course, will enter
into no controversy with Mr.. Game, or
the Department of Justice, with reference
to the question as to whether or not the
board of charities has any supervision over
the Reform School for Girls yet it is
understood that the Commissioners have
themselves given some attention to the
constituting of the law on the subject and
that their Interpretation of the act of Con-
gress relating to the powers of the board
of charities and the Commissioners Is not
entirely in agreement with Mr. Gaines re-
cent opinion.
Consequently the committee Of the board
of charities will not be called Off from the
investigation of the reform schools affairs,
and its report on the conditions will be
pletes Its inquiry, and will be forwarded to
Congress by the Commissioners.
Quotation From Act of Congress.
In support of the statement that the
board of charities has authority to investi-
gate conditions at the Reform School for
Girls. the act of Congress creating the
board of charities, approved June 8, 1900,
is quoted. In this law the following pro-
vision is found:
THE said board of charities shall visit,
inspect and maintain general supervision
over all institutions, societies associa-
lions of a charitable eleemosynary, cor
regional or reformatory character which
are supported in whole or in part by ap-
preparations of Congress, made for the care
or treatment of residents Of the District of
Columbia"
And further in the same act of Congress,
the authority of the Commissioners to
order Investigations of the institutions of
the character mentioned is given as fol-
lows:
THE Commissioners of the District of
Columbia may at any time order an in
vestigation by the board, or a committee
of Its members, of the management of any
penal, charitable or reformatory institution
of the District of Columbia; and said board,
or any authorized committee of its MEM
berS when making such investigation, shall
have power to send for persons and papers
and to administer oaths and affirmatons;
and the report of such investigation, with
the testimony, shall be made to the Com
missioners.' So 20
1t is pointed out that the act does not
distinguish between District and federal in
situations.
