Below Rgh-MRs MISS ISABEL STRONG

To cOrrelate the activities of all
the existing child welfare agencies
in Washington, and to bring united
pressure to bear upon those condi-
tiOHS that demand attention, is the
object of the Children's Council.
This council is made up of the
heads of practically epery irpor-
tdnt agency in the CITY working for
the good Of the citys children.
Beside the cooperation it has
eHgeHdered, the council, so far,
has to its credit such accomplish
mcntS as the agitation for more
rigid restriction against girls drink
ing in cafes, the movement for at
teHtioH to vocational education in
the District, and the stimulation

Dozens of agencies in Washington

of conditions affecting children.
Until three years ago each of these
charted its own course. paid little

agencies. sometimes conficted with
and at times duplicated the work of

This condition brought about, in

Children's Council. an informal or
ganiZation designed TO afford a COM

problems of childhood. A clearing of

Notable service was done during
the first year of the councils exist
enCe through the engagement of Miss
Mary B. Swain as paid worker.
Miss Swain had been connected with
child welfare efforts in Chicago.
Upon coming here she made a series
of Investigate tions and surveys that
The Washington times., 1914-09-11

pointed to conditions hitherto un-
known. and since remedied.
One of Miss Swain's most valuable
inquiries was that she made into
child labor in the District That sur
Ney IS yet TO bear fruit in the pass
age of the Barnhart bill, now before
the House. Child labor workers are
confident that the bill will be passed
AT this session. In cooperation with
Its officers, Miss Swain went into the
work done by the Board of Children 8
Guardians, and much of the work of
mat board was put upon a new
basis. Its efficiency was increased
by suggestions from an expert. Con-
ditions on board excursion steamers
going out of Washington were re-
ported. and recommendation for
better lighting of these steamers fol-
lowed. \ thorough survey of the
rcCIea lion facilities OF Washington
was made. The playground move
mcnt received great impetus fol-
lowing the report on recreation.
The movement for more rigid inspec-
ton of drinking places, where young
SIrlS were served, was inStiGated by
the Childrens Council. Mrs. w.
Murray Crane and Miss Swain were
among the first to look into this
supervision was the direct result OF
their efforts.
In May, 1912, the council cooper
atcd with the National Child Labor
Committee in an exhibit which IL
Illustrated child labor conditions in
all parts of the country. This ex-
hihit was one of the most nearly
complete of its kind, and served to
illustrate to legislators as we'll as to
laymen conditions that cried ior
corrective measures.
Blind Alley Occupations.
The present interest in the subject
of vocational education in the Dis
trict received its inspiration direct
from the Children's council. COM
mittee, of which A. J. MCkelway
was chairman. made an inquiry into
the blind alley occupations in the
District. and took steps to prevent
boys from engaging in such work.
1t also arranged. through Miss Lura
RugG. in charge of issuing permits
for boys and girls who wanted TO
work. to have a complete record or
cases of children who left school
before the completion of their
courses These children were seen,
and in many cases. through talks
with them or their parents, they
were persuaded to continue their
studies. Those who had to go TO
work We're advised about the occupa-
tions they should take up.
One of the councils strongest rec
concentrations was that for reform
school for white girls. No such
agency now exists in Washington.
though there is need of one. in the
estimation of workers among chl!-
dren. No action has yet been taken
toward meeting this need.
The council, during the winter.
meets monthly at the rooms OF the
Associated Charities. In addition
to the discussions of child welfare
problems. experts in this field are in
vited to address the meetings. Many
notable out-of-town speakers have
been heard.

ARE IN RESENTFUL MOOD
Senators Deny There Is Pork" in
Rivers and Harbors
Bill.

Resenting the charges of pork and
graft in relation to the rivers and har-
bors bill, several senators friendly to the
measure came out forcibly in its defense
today.
They were Senators Simmons of North
Carolina. who is in charge of the bill:
Smith Of Michigan. Bryan of Florida and
Ransdel of Louisiana. Senator Simmons
said: IF we should not pass the river
and harbor bill at this session there would
be a suspension. 1 am advised. Of at least
one-half of all river and harbor works
that are now in prosecution. 1t has been
the wise policy Of Congress to improve
a great many small streams throughout
the country in order to facilitate local
and community transportation"
No Need Of Apology.
Senator Smith said: There is not a
single item for which the committee ought
to apologize or make any excuse"
Senator Ransdell demanded particulars
as to the items in the river and harbor
bill that were put forth for the personal
benefit Of some member Of the House or
the personal benefit Of some senator He
said he was tired of hearing the vague
insinuations. and he called upon the crit
les Of the bill for Showdown"
