CHILDREN COURT
REFORMS BEGUN
Complete Reorganization of the
Tribunal and Detention Home
Enlargement Planned.

Stirred by Judge Pendleton's recent
arraignment of children's court condi-
tons and the grand jury's criticism of
the Central Avenue Detention home, the
county commission today began COM
plete reorganization Of the juvenile
court affairs.
Steps will be taken at once to enlarge
the quarters of the detention home and
the chairman of the aims and juvenile
committee, Shelby Smith, was author
lied to rent the Sheltering Arms build
ing, at Walton and Marietta streets, for
this purpose, if it could be obtained for
500 monthly.
The September grand jury in making
its report to superior court severely
criticised conditions at the Central av-
enue home, maintaining that the quar-
ters were too small to keep races and
sexes properly segregated.
Preliminary action was taken to get
a location for a reformatory for negro
bows. as was recommended by Judge
Pendleton III commenting on the report
Of the grand jury.
Farm Offer Considered.
The jurist pronounced the present
children's court system "a mere in
centive to crime, and asserted that the
law establishing the court should be
repealed unless the county provided
place to take care of negro offenders.
| p. Burdette appeared before the COM
mission representing Joel r. Armistead
and offered the county 400 acres Of
| land on the Bakers Ferry road in the
northwestern part OF the county, some
eight miles from Atlanta as suitable
site for the negro reformatory. Mr..
Burdette said that the land could be
bought for $50 an acre The commits
sion agreed to consider the proposition
! if the deal could be made at $50 an
acre.
! While no definite action was taken
members of the commission were unan-
ilnous in saying that the detention
! home quarters would be enlarged at
once. The commission now has to de-
eide merely on a location at reasonable
rental.
What may prove to be complete re-
organization of the affairs of the Full
ton county aims house also was planned
when Commissioner Smith, chairman
of the aims and juvenile committee.
recommended that a matron be en-
ployed at the aims house at once.
No definite action was taken.

Wilson s Victory
Truly National.

President elect Wilson's victory was
truly national. He did not draw his
strength from any particular section Of
the country, but East and West, North
and South united in giving the national
Democratic ticket the greatest sweep in
the history of American politics.
The sixty-third congress will be en-
tirely Democratic and President-elect
Wilson will have the full force of both
legislative branches of the government
behind him to back up his demands on
congress.
Governor Wilson's immense strength
swept to victory with him compression
al. legislative and state officers
throughout the country. Leaders Of
the National Progressive party declare
that the Republican party has been all
but annihilate6 and that it will never
again figure potentially in the political
affairs of this nation.
One of the most significant features
Of the great popular upheaval was q
solemn warning issued by President
Taft at Cincinnati as result of tne
big vote of the Progressive and Social
list tickets. Commenting upon the OBJ
vious political unrest, President Taft
said.
