State Board OF Charities and
Corrections.

Columbia, NO.. August 6. 1313.-
A most important step in the pro-
cess OF establishing juvenile courts
in all the counties Of the state was
taken today by the State Board OF
Charities and Corrections which has
mailed to various probate Judges Of
the state extensive information blanks
covering the qualifications Of pro-
baton officers appointed by them as
Judges Of juvenile courts. This in
formation is being collected as re-
suit OF action taken al a meeting Of
the Board July 81 1t has been de.
cldcd to base the approval or rcjec-
ton OF appointments OF probation Of
hccrS, which j, provided for under
the new law, upon this information
and upon the attitude Of local com
munItics as Indicated by endorsement
or protest. This method is made
necessary since funds are not avail
able for personal investigation of the
fitness OF appicants.'
The Board has expressed its hearty
sympathy with the new juvenile court
law and intends to perform its duties
under the law regardless of action
which may be taken to test the con-
sttullonality of the measure. A
third of the counties OF the state have
already organized juvenile courts
and reported appointments of pro-
baton officers and some of the new
juvenile courts have discovered un-
usual conditions OF delinquency and
neglect among children in their COM
munlties. Should the law be found
constitutional and be put in opera
tion in all counties, Missouri will
have one OF the leading juvenile court
systems OF the United States and
even of the world. approximately
4i55 cases of neglect and delln.
qeency were handled by the six ju,
emile courts already in existence in
the state last year and it is expected
tha. the work of the rural courts will
compare favorab.y with that OF the
lager centen.
