him roughly. Then the two men got

PUPILS ASK NEW
JUVENILE COURT
Fifty Thousand Expected to
Unite in Demand For Ade-
:uate Building.

The uniting of so. 000 children of the
District in a demand on Congress for
a new Juvenile Court building is expect
ed 20 be the outcome of action taken
last night by the Boys Neighborhood
Club of the Grover Cleveland School,
which unanimously adopted a resolution
calling on Congress for a better build
ing and more probation officers.
In addition, the boys plan to spread
the work to other schools OF the Dis
trict until every child of school age,
whether studying or employed. has
gone on record as demanding a new
children's court building.
The movement is the direct outcome
of a visit of Judge J. Wilmer Latimer
TO the club last week. in which he asked
the boys to join with him in the effort
toward securing a new building. Copies
of the resolutions, with the signature of
every club member attached. will be
sent to the chairmen Of the District COM
mittees Of the Senate and House, and TO
each of the District Commissioners.
The resolution was read by David
Milne, secretary of the club, and Presi-
dent Leroy F. Day called for rising
vote. They read:
Whereas il has been authoritatively
called to our attention that the building
now occupied by the Juvenile Court in
this city is totally untitled for the pur-
pose for which il is used that the quar-
tiers used therein for the temporary de-
tention Of Juvenile offenders for minor
infractions of the law are inferior to
those existing at the District Jail for
the confinement of the most hardened
criminals; and that no city of the same
size in the United States has a worse
looking Juvenile Court building than
the Capital of the Nation: and
Whereas there is but one probation
officer in Washington for every $50
juveniles on parole, while other cities
have one officer for every twenty-five
or thirty, therefore
BE it resolved, That it is the opinion
of this meeting that these conditions
should be remedied Immediately, and
that Congress should appropriate the
necessary funds during its present ses-
sion to provide for a modern Juvenile
court building, and for the employment
of at least fifteen probation officers"
After the resolution had been disposed
of the club devoted the rest of the even
ing to planning a Halloween entertain
ment when the Girls Neighborhood
Club members will be its guests.
