COMMITMENT OF BOYS
TO STATE INSTITUTIONS
Senate Addressed by, Mr.. SearIs on a
Proposed Lsw-Text Of the Bill,
Which Was Tabled.


Hartford. June Ex-senator Searls
today. in addressing the senate on a
proposed law for the commitment of
boys between the ages of and 16 to
chartered institutions Of the state, said
he believed that it is sometimes we'll
to break precedent when precedent
stands as an obstacle to progress. He
said that this measure was a great
step forward for Connecticut to take
and the committee had every hope
that the bill would be passed. 1t was
drawn in the interest of the boys who
are starting in a small way on the
wrong track, boys who may be saved
and with little wholesome influence
at the outset may become In later
years citizens of standing. The bill
was tabled in order that some sena-
tors might study it closely.
The bill follows:
Section l. Any boy between the ages
of seven and sixteen years who is in
manifest danger of falling into habits
of vice, or who is leading an idle, USE
less, or otherwise incorrigible life, or
who refuses to perform labor suitable
to his years or condition, or to at
tend school, may. upon the complaint
of grand juror, or of the, prosecut-
ing attorney of any town, city or Dor
ough court, or upon the complaint of
a parent or guardian, be brought be-
fore. a justice Of the peace. or the
town, city or borough court, or judge
of the police court, within whose ju-
risdiction he may reside or be found
and, upon conviction, may be commit
ted to the custody of an institution
chartered by the state for the pur-
pose of receiving and caring for boys
who have fallen into or are in danger
of falling into vicious habits, until he
shall have arrived at the age of 81
years or until sooner discharged as
hereinafter provided.
Sec. 2 When any boy committed to
any such institution shall have i'm
proved in morals and habits SUFFICIENT
ly in the judgment of the trustees of
such institution to qualify him for
