LEGAL AID SOCIETY BUSY.
Organization Has More Cases Than
1t Can Handle

"The Washington Legal Aid Society
has more cases on hand than II can con-
veniently attend to-"
This is the statement of Edwin G. Dut-
ton, attorney for the society. Mr.. Dutton
further said that the business of the So
ciety is expanding so rapidly that "a
salaIied attorney will soon have 10 be
employed and an Office established The
services of twenty-five students in the
graduating classes of the George Wash
ington University Law School. recently
secured. have been of great benefit in the
investigation Of cases. The cases that
are favorably reported after a thorough
investigation are then taken up by the
attorney for such action as is necessary.
our most frequent calls for aid, said
Mr.. Dutton, can be placed under three
heads: divorce, nonsupport, and money
lending cases. The society will not take
divorce cases, as they properly belong to
the regular practitioner. Nonsupport of
wife and children is a growing evil. and
such cases are pushed to the limit Under
the present code The husband and father
can be- quickly brought to terms for fail
ure 30 support his family. providing he
is residing in the District of Columbia.
but the great trouble is that I'm many
cases they leave the city, with no trace
OF their whereabouts. As to money-lend-
ing cases, it is not the policy of the so
ciety to interfere in such contracts only
in extreme cases. As d rule people Dor
row for their extravagances rather than
for their necessities. and the exorbItant
interest charged merely adds to the cost
Ones sympathy for borrowers lessons
soraewhat upon seeing how the money
lenders Offices are crowded for few
days preceding the holidays
I'm many cases persons who are living on
charity will borrow money at 10 per cent
month to buy Christmas presents. and
the mOney-endeTs offices have 10 remain
open until late at night at such times
in order to meet the demands. Then. in
few weeks, these borrowers cab on the
Legal Aid Society 10 help them breach
their contract and avoid the payment
of interest"
1t was further stated by Mr. Dutton
that it was strict rule of the society
not TO take cases of any kind when a
possible fee could be had, and such cases
are always declined with the suggestion
that the person consult a lawyer
