This meeting was called that we
might take action upon the bill entitled
An Act to Provide for Mothers with
Dependent Children which has been
drafted by the Hon. Lewis A. Burleigh
at the request of the president of this
association. AS you are aware, in hav-
ing the bill prepared we are follow
ing the precedent established by the
National Congress of Mothers and
Parent Teacher Associations in 1911,
when they enlisted in a nation wide
movement for Mothers Pension law
in every state. Also in pursuance of
the accommodation. made at the goth
annual conference of the n. c. NJ. and
PIT. Association which was held in
Nashville, Tenn, on April 4 to 9, 1916.
that the work be continued in states
not yet having such a law.
we are not the first in Maine to
consider this matter, as a bill was pre-
sented at the nth Legislature regard
ing aid for mothers. This bill was IA
vorably reported upon by the commit
tee. passed the Senate, but failed to
pass the House. But as Mothers
Pension Law is a measure that is es-
senually part of our work, we have
had prepared this bill for presentation.
No doubt you have read Governor Carl
Milliken's recommendation regarding
such legislation, and we are indeed for
tunate in having for our Governor a
man of such high ideals and forceful
mind"
Following the speech of the presi-
dent, Mrs. II. II. Stuart read the fol-
lowing, Resolved, That the Maine
Branch. National Congress Of Mothers
and Parent-Teacher Associations
heartily eL'orses the principle of the
Mothers nsion Law as embodied in
the bill entitled "An Act to Provide Aid
for Mothers with Dependent Children"
which is to be presented at this SEES.
sion of the Legislature, and that 1t
VIII gladly cooperate with all other
societies and individuals in the effort
to secure this, or similar legislation"
The resolve was approved, and it
was then moved. that a vote of thanks
be extended to the Hon. Lewis A. Bur-
leigh for drafting the bill entitled IAN
Act to Provide Aid for Mothers with
Dependent Children" This concluded
the business of the meeting.

One Of the best informed Augusta
citizens as to Russia's part in the pres

tor Of q fruit and confectionery store

four years in the army of the Car. and
knows quite a bit about the system
which Is employed in that country to
secure men for the Russian forces. and
he states that the reason for the Rus
sian defeats is not because the men
are not equipped or able to fight, but
simply becaase they have nothing to

Inc Investigations In most States are
conducted by probation officers, agents
or visitors appointed by the court OF
board. and families recipient are subse.
quently supervised by these same per-
sons. The qualifications of visitors are
usually that they shall be discreet per-
sons Of good character. In Ohio and
Wyoming agents of associated charities
organizations or humane societies are
also employed and any person who is
employed in conducting such an investi-
cation must be thoroughly trained in
charitable relief work.
In Missouri, Ohio South Dakota and
Utah. to prevent the distribution Of al
lowances where they are not actually
needed, any taxpayer may fire motion
to set aside or vacate an order granting
relief. If on the hearing of such motion
1t transpires that the grant was in
judicious and unwarranted, the court or
board may discontinue the subsidy.
There can be no doubt but that the
value in the upbuilding of the State. be-
cause they tend to create. high stand

Again. keeping the home intact Is a
prevention of Juvenile delinquency. A
good home with a good mother is worth
more than a woman bread-winner where
children are concerned. When the
mother is compelled to work. the chill
dren very often grow up on the streets.
leading usually to juvenile delinquency.
Another result of the mothers pension
laws Is that the bitterness of poverty is
not increased by taking the children
from their mother. A higher standard
of morals is secured and health con-
ditions Of the community increased,
while efficient physical and mental char
acter are made possible.
