JUDGE SCULLY WANTS LABOR MEN ON BOYS
BODY-SOCIAL WORKERS DON'T UNDERSTAND

Inc bad boy problem OF chicago
was considered by 81 social service
workers yesterday in the courtroom
of the boys court. Judge Harry M.
Fisher, who presides over the court,
explained the needs of boys who
come into the court and made an APP
peal for preventative crime measures.
Judge Thos. F. ScuIly, first judge
of the boys court, threw bomb into
the meeting when he declared social
service workers incompetent to deal
with the problem.
81 have heard considerable talk
about the responsibility of the pa
rents since have been here" Judge
Scully said. There is too much
going into the homes by people like
those assembled here who do not I'M
derstand the people they seek to in
Struct.
81 live right amongst them. Tt is
necessary to live amongst them to
understand their needs. If you want
a committee to really deal with this
problem you should go into the dis
tricts from which these boys come
and get on your committee represen-
tatives of the people who need help.
Have some one from the Bohemian
district, from the Italian, from the
Lithuanian, from the Jewish dis
tricts.
There should be a representative
of labor on this committee. believe
in preventive steps to keep the boy
from becoming a criminal, and one of
the best of these is to get him work.
There are some splendid people at the
head of the labor unions who could
handle this problem with little diff
Guilty.
when 1 was in this court had this
problem and understood it. 1 knew
the people and the causes that
brought boys into the court, but the
only help 1 received in handling the
problem was that from the Big Broth

to solve this problem. do not be-
Iieve boys should be encouraged to
be dependent on charity. The boy
needs work, but today conditions are
so complicated that he cannot get
work unless he has letter from the
alderman or some judge or some in
fluential person. 1t was not that way
years ago and these conditions make
desperate boys.
81 believe in religious training for
boys. The boy who has no respect
for'his creator has no respect for the
law.
q know that if you present this
problem properly to the city council
or to the county board you will have
no trouble getting them to help YOU"
Judge Fisher declared that more
than so per cent of the boys brought
into the court come there because
they have no place to go, and pointed
to the fact that for some unexplained
reason there is no place for the boy
after he is II, as every helping
agency stops at that age He plead
ed for a place in which to put the
boy until something could be done for
him, and told of boy he had to send
to the House of Correction merely be-
cause he was needed as a witness in
an important case and there was no
other place to send him to hold him
unless it would be the County Jail.
He suggested that subcommittee
be appointed to build a structure at
the Gage farm for boys over II; to
obtain temporary building for boys
of that age; to obtain a permanent
home; to care for the feeble-minded.
Mrs. Gertrude Howe Britton de-
clared that the Shakespeare and Fill

most vacant, could be used as tenn

New York, Nov. 2S.--E. E. Wheelock, superintendent of terminals for the Cincinnati, New Orleans, Texas x Pa cific, at Chattanooga, testified before the arbitration commission, seeking to settle differences between the roads and the switchmen, that negro crews in the Chattanooga yards are paid less than white men, although just com petent. He asserted the rates of pay had been fixed under agreement with the Brotherhood of Railroad Train men.
 Frank Freid, Nickle Plate yard master at Buffalo, said he believed the eight-hour law would increase drink ing among switcbmen, because it would give them more leisure.

 Cincinnati has been chairman and active head.
 Mrs. Fals continued her husbands plan for two years before concluding that time was ripe for a change. She said 1t was time for the singietaxers of America to choose their own lead
 CTS and also expressed the belief that large gifts from single source had
 a tendency to deaden the sense of re-
 sponsibility of the rank and file. She will continue to give for singletax
 objects, but in accordance with her own judgment and without taking
 organic responsibility for the move
