ROOSEVELT URGES
CARE OF CHILDREN
Asserts Nations Future Depends
on Aid Given Now

WASHINGTON, Jan. 25.-The import
ance OF the preservation of the home
was the central theme of discussion at
the conference on the care of inde-
pendent children, which was opened by
President Roosevelt at the White
House late today. The subject under
consideration was Should the break
ing of home be permitted for rea-
sons of inefficiency of immorality?"
1t was the unanimous opinion of an
array of notable charity workers that
children can best be removed from the
family circle only when proper super
vision at home has become impossible.
1t also was the consensus of opinion
that where poverty exists in the home
state aid should be given.
President Roosevelt, previous to call
ing the gathering to order, received the
delegates in the East room. After out
lining the scope of the work before
the conference the president called
Homer Folks, president of the state
probation commission of New York, to
the chair and spoke in part as follows:
There can be no more important
subject from the standpoint of the
nation than that which you are to deal
with; because when you take care of
the children you are taking care of
the nation of tomorroy, and it is in
cumbent upon every one of us to do all
in his power to provide for the inter-
ests of those children whom cruel mis-
fortune has handicapped at the very
outset of their lives. 1 earnestly hope
will take progressive stand, so as TO
establish goal toward which the
whole country can work. In other
words, 1 earnestly hope each of you
will consider not only the interests of
his own immediate locality, but the in
terests of the nation as a whole.
There are half dozen different
types of children for whom we need to
care. There is. first of all, the COM
plete orphan. the child who has lost
both father and mother For this child
we wish to make permanent provision.
My own belief is that the best kind of
permanent provision, if feasible, is to
place the child in a home.
I'VE then have. to meet the case-one
of the most distressing of cases-where
the father has died, where the bread
winner has gone, where the mother
would like to keep the children, but
simply lacks the earning capacity.
Surely in such a case the goal toward
which we should strive is to help that
mother so that she can keep her own
home and keep the child in it; that is
the best thing possible to be done for
that child"
The speakers who made strong pleas
for the preservation of family ties in
cluded NJ. ]. Scanlan, president of the
New York Catholic home bureau; Ear
nest p. Bicknell, president of the Con-
ference of Charities and Corrections,

of the Associated Charities, Cleveland.

Washington, d. c., juvenile court, and
DR.. Edward Il. Devine or New York.
Among those who discussed this
were Prof. Charles r. Henderson, presi-
dent of the National children's home
society.
The conference at the White House
was open only to those who directly
took part in the proceedings, but to-
night a public meeting was held at the
New Willard hotel.

LABOR MEN ACCUSED
OF HATCHING PLOT
Attorney for open Shop Con-
tractor at Agnew Scores
His Accusers
Council Withdraws Witness
Placed on Stand as an
Expert

SAN JOSE, Jan. 25.-An attempt was
made today at the Agnew state hospi-
tai investigation to show that the state
building trades council had been
prompted by ulterior motives in fling
charges against open shop" Contractor
+. o. Engstrum. During the cross ex-
animation of James NJ. Benefited, a car
penter employed on one of the state
buildings, and who is testifying in be-
half of the building trades council
here, Attorney Bert Harrington for
Contractor Engstrum inquired why
since he was employed directly by the
state he did not report his discoveries
of the defects to the state inspector in
charge. Witness replied that he did not
think it was his business to do so when
approached by member of the coun
ell The witness became sullen when
questioned further, and though dis
claiming that he made the affidavit
with any promise or hope of reward,
stated that he owed allegiance to the
council and when approached to make
an affidavit could not. we'll refuse.
The whole of the session was en- up
with the examination of four witnesses
for the council, James NJ. Benefited, p.
w Boyle, c. I. Newby of San Jose and
Dennis Savage of San Francisco. The
latter was placed upon the stand as
an expert in concrete construction. The
three former maintained that they saw
holes in the walls and considered the
building unsafe for many reasons, but
all were agreed that they were un-
willing or unable to point out single
one of the alleged defects or to make
any more binding statement than was
contained in the affidavits.
Savage was excused from looking
over the building by Attorney Appel
for the council, who admitted that it
was evident from his testimony that he
was not qualified as an expert. 1t is
expected that the building trades coun-
Gil will close its case tomorrow by plac-
ing Henry A. Schulze, architect for the
council, on the stand as an expert. p.
II. Mccarthy and O. A. Tveitmoe are
expected to be present tomorrow to
conduct their side. of the case. The
defense Will not introduce witnesses, it
is expected, but will let the rigid tests
to be put to the building speak for
themselves.
