Mr. stronG's Recomn,en dations.

MF. HecOnenten uattOns'
Here are some Of the recommendations
made Ivy Mr., strong:
recommend u reorganization Of
the state board. Instead OF an unpaid
board OF twelve, appointed by tn"
Governor from districts. the board
should become a board OF nine. OF
whom AT leas. one should be- a woman.
and OF whom three should be paid and
six should not lie paid. appointed by
the Governor from the state at large,
to serve during good behavior and re-.
movable by the Governor on notice for
cause.
recommend tho establishment OF
a new bureau in the state board. 10
be known as the Bureau for Depen-
dent Children. the chairman OF which
is to be one OF the paid members OF
the board n who must possess spe-
cial training In the care OF children in
private institutions and In foster
homes.
I recommend the abolition OF tho
office of the Flscal Supervisor ~
state Charities. of the Salary classin-
cation Commission. OF the Building
Improvement Commission, of the Com-
mission on Sites, Grounds and Build
ings, and of the Board OF Examiners
OF Predetermined. Criminals n Other
Detectives.
The examiners last named are han
died without gloves by Mr., Strong. who
finds hat they have spent SIC. 700 with
out performing any OF the duties de-
manded by law. The Supreme Court OF
the United States must pass on the on
~Stitu,ionality OF his statute and In the
meantime 1t is held in allegiance here.
but the salaries 20 on.
Mr.. Strong believes that the state
board, 10 carry out the examinations
and visits which the law requires. should
have more inspectors. The commission
er asserts that the state board IL afraid
to ask for these additional helpers be-
cause OF possible criticism.
