AID REQUESTED. FOR
J. HELPLESS CHILDREN
Presidential Message on De-
pendent Little Ones. .=

Washington, Feb. 1j.-President
Roosevelt transmitted today to the
two houses of congress special mes
sage recommending legislation re
quested by the conference on the care
of dependent children held in Wash
ington Jan. rs and 26.
The aim of the friends of the de-
pendent children is. the enactment of
legislation providing for their care.
This aim is heartily endorsed by the
president. He is thoroughly in favor
of bills pending in the senate and
house Of representatives providing
such care for the dependent children
in the District of Columbia and the
territories, the only sections of the
country for which congress may enact
such laws. These bills will serve as
examples for the rest of the country,
it is hoped. = w..
Before the conference at it's meet
ing in the White House on Jan. rs
and subsequently the president ex-
pressed the greatest interest in it's
work. The conference, which was
composed of well known philan-
thropists and sociologists from all
parts of the United States, assem-
bled in Washington at his Invitation
and it's sessions were formally opened
by him in long address.
The president gave lis opinion that
there could be no more important
subject, from the standpoint of the
nation, than the care of 'the interests
of those children whom cruel misfor-
tune has handicapped at the very out
set of their lives" He referred to
the orphan, the crippled child, the
child worker and the child temporarily
parted from its parents by circum-
stances. ~ 80 = - =
