CHARITIES AND CORRECTION.
The Nationa Conference and Notable
 Men to Be Present.

The NNft0n8 C0UIeFeuce hnO n~s~"s-
 Men to Be Present.
 Philadelphia. May 6-with Ex-Presi- dent Cleveland in the chair the open ing night, ard three governors, com- missioner of the District of Columbia, three heads of city departments, ana the United States commissioner of la bor participating in the wide range or discussions which make up the ten days program, considerably puohc interest attaches to the National Con- ference of Charities and Correction which meets May 9-l6, in Philadelphia.
 This conference has no duplicate in the world. Prison reformers. settle ment workers, district nurses, chari- table visitors--heads of insane asyiums. reformatories, juvenile republics, boys clubs, and the like. gather once a year from all parts of the country to discuss their various work from the standpoint of the needs of the Amers- can community.
 Thus, there is this year section meeting on the care of the sick given over to discussion of state and muni- cipal control of tuberculosis. Anoth- CT session takes up the overcrowding in the cities; third the present status of the child labor movement with ad- dress by Dr. Neili of the Department of Labor, Jane Addams of Hull House. and Samuel McCune Lindsay, former commissioner of education of Porto Rico. There are sections on how to protect feeble minded women; on what to do for delinquent girls; on how the great superv. sing boards which have in charge the charitable and reforma- tory and hospital institutions of a com monwealth. can keep track of their wards and see whether the states mon- ey is properly expended. Judge Julian W. Mack will tell of the juvenile court of Chicago: Governor Hanley of In- diana, of efficiency and charitable in- stitutions (Governor Stokes of New Jersey leading in the discussion). Commissioner Mcfarland of Washing ton will take up the question of pub- lie subsidies. which is a live issue among institutional managers in sew eral states; and the chairman of the New York State Probation Commission, Homer Folks, will raise the question as to whether there are not saner meth ods in dealing with first offenders than sor Morris Loeb of New University will challenge the immigration restric- tionists who claim that the slums of American cities are due to European paupers. And so on to the end of the list.
 The great relief work carried on in San Francisco will give an especial timeliness to many of the discussions of the conference dealing with practi- cal philanthropy. This is shown by the fact that this years president of the conference, Edward T. Devine of New York, was selected by President Roose- welt to represent the Red Cross in San Francisco.
