Woman Non-Support Claim.
ants Keep Clerks in District
Disbursing Office HustIing.

Now that Congress has directed that
the Juvenile Court non-support checks
| shall be paid out by the District of CO.
lumbia in the same manner as any other
municipal payment. the small force under
Louis Wilson. disbursing officer. has had
to put on a little more speed in order to
keep up with the already large volume
Of business.
The checks ordered to be paid by Judge
DeLacy are generally for the support
of children who have been left to get
along as best they may by their fathers.
In practically every instance the checks
are to be made out every two weeks In
favor Of the child's mother. This makes
about 800 checks to be drawn and sent
out
The checks are small Most of them
are in the neighborhood Of 81 week.
Nearly all of them are mailed. and nearly
every time check is mailed 1t comes

is because the recipients OF the checks
move about every half hour it -eing
more profitable to move away than try
to pay rent on 81 week.

Many of the women who call to get
their checks seem to have the impression
that the disbursing office has been created

in loud and raucous tone:

That gave the clerk a clue. The men,

"Oh, it's non-support case" In about
five more questions he induced the lady
to tell her name. He handed over the
check. got her to sign a receipt, and as
she took up her money she said:
Its great pity I've got to go through
money the District owes me. I ought to

Then the clerk ventured to remark that

But the woman simply told the clerk to
