PRESERVATION OF
HOME THEIR THEME.
President Opens Conference on
Care Of Dependent Children.

Washington, jan 26.-The import
ance of the preservation of the home
intact was the central theme of dis
cussion at the conference on the care
of dependent children, which was
opened by President Roosevelt at the
White House. The subject under con.
sideration was Should the breaking
sons of poverty or only for reasons OF
inetticiency or immOrallty|'
1t was the unanimous opinion of an
array OF notable charity workers that
children can best be reared under the
influence OF the home and that they
should be removed from the family cir
Gle only when proper supervision at
home has become impossible. 1t also
was the concensus of opinion that
where poverty exists in the home state
aid should be given. President Roose-
welt said, in part:
There are half dozen types Of
children for which we need to care.
There is, first of all, the complete or
phan, the child who has lost both ia
Their 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 home.
I'VE have then to meet the case
one of the most distressing of cases
where the father has died, where the
breadwinner has gone, where the
mother would like to keep the child,
but simply lacks the earning capacity.
Surely in such case the goal towards
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. How the relief shall come,
public, private, or by mixture Of
both, in what way, you are competent
to say and | am not. But | am com
petent to say what | think the goal
should be.

WEST HAMMOND AGAIN
INVADED BY THE VICIOUS

West Hammond is in the grip of the
vice crusade that is being carried on
in Chicago. and yesterday indictments
were returned against Con" Moore.
Gertrude Moore. Dan Rodney and Ruth
Rodney of West Hammond on the
charge Of harboring Lillian Quanstrom
girl under 1S years of age, in the
house of in-fame. which they are al
legged to be running on Plummer ave-
nue., West Hammond.
For some time it has been a well
known fact that there have been houses
of ill-fame in West Hammond. but
since the great crusade of a few years
ago vice has not been paraded before
the people OF the village in the manner
in which it formerly was.
1t is supposed that States Attorney
Wayman decided to investigate condi-
tions in West Hammond when he was
making a general cleanup in Chicago.
and it was through this investigation
that the fact was discovered that Moore
was harboring girl under IS years Of
age
Rodney and his wife are charged
with keeping the girl in the place,
and. it is said. that Moore and his wife
later took possession of the house.
