CARE OF DETECTIVES
Institutions for Training Of Chill
dren Are Needed.
Uncle Sans Experts Say This VIII
Help Lessen the Burden of De-
pAndency and Delinquency.

"Protect the defective children, pro
vide for their training and proper care
and you will lessen the burden of de
pendency and delinquency" This is
the gist of the advice contained in q
report on mental detectives issued by
the children's bureau of Uncle Sans
department of labor, and appearing
with special timeliness now that wal
conditions may tend to make more Sc
rious the problem of delinquent and
dependent children.
The report is based on q study OF
the social conditions of 212 mental de
fectives in New Castle county, Della
ware. A total of 175, or more than
four-fifths of these, were in need OF
public supervision or institutional care
because Of bad home conditions, phys.
ical helplessness, or pronounced anti
social tendencies, and only IL Of them
were provided for in an institution
adapted to their care. Twenty-six Of
the defective children were in indus
trial schools for delinquent children
and of these the report says:
institutions for the care of delin
quent children are greatly handicapped
by the presence of detectives, since
they require special attention and ex.
ert bad influence over the normal
children. After a short period of resi-
dence these detectives are returned tc
the community without sufficient SUI
pervision."
Other defective children with delin'
quency records were at large in the
community; in all, SO of the PIP defec.
tives studied were delinquent or i'm
moral or difficult to control.
The report suggests that, while any
program for the care of mental defec-
tives must have as it's central feature
suitable institutional provision offer.
Ing training or custodial care accord
ing to the needs Of the individual
other activities are equally essential
1t is pointed out, for example, that in
Stitutional care is not necessary for
all mentally defective children, for
contrary to the popular impression, il
Is found that there are certain types
who safely can remain at home pro-
vided they have the attention and
study which they deserve. However
special provision should be made for
their safety, care and education, and
out-patient work of an institution for
the feeble-minded, in cooperation with
schools, social agencies and families
is referred to as new and important
method Of providing in the most hu.
name possible way for such children
The possibilities Of industrial train.
ing by which certain types of defec-
tives may gradually become in part
.self-supporting and the Importance of
providing facilities for mental examf-
nation and diagnosis of doubtful cases
are also brought out in the report.

UNFAIR PROFITING

There is broad question of liter
ary and official ethics presented by
the publication Of copyrighted articles
by: former Ambassador Gerard who
has published facimile of the origin
al letter written by the Kaiser to
President Wilson few days after the
outbreak of the war in Europe. Ge-
rard is the first to give publicity to
this interesting and important letter.
He obtained a copy of the letter be-
cause he was ambassador to Germany
While he has no right concerning the
letter that can prevent others from
publishing it, yet he had the first op-
portunity to give it publicity and
thus took a literary and financial ad-
vantage of others. Presumably he
had permission from the President Of
the United States to make this let
ter public. If 30, that makes the mat.
ter all the worse. If President
Wilson desired to make public CORE
spondence he had with the Kaiser, he
should have made it public in such s
way that all newspapers and othe,
publications would have an equal op
portunity to print the same. Unde,
40 circumstances should man by rea

The 10000 who obtained admission
cheered every reference to President

seized every opportunity to deride
Mayor Thompson who coined the city's
Germanesque title.
Samuel Gompers, president of the
American Federation of Labor, de-
ciared that "it is doubtful if there has
been in history more patient, yet
courageous man to meet great emer-
gency than was and is Woodrow Will

The audience heard the definition of

traitor was anyone who speaks
against the government or obstructs

MORMON PLAN ON BEET PRICES

The mormons who have beet sugar
factories in the intermountain region
have fixed it so that the beet growers
will receive share in the profits. The
new scheme is the echo of an old fight
existing between the Amalgamated
Sugar company, owned by the Eccles
estate of Odgen and associated inter
csts, and the Utah-Idaho company,
which is controlled by the mormon
church. Under the plan of the Utah
Idaho company will lay aside $3.50 on
each 100 pounds Of sugar manufac-
tured as the cost of production and
profit. All profits over this figure
will be split equally between the COM
pany and the farmers, who contin-
ue to receive 81 ton for beets., This
Is the very scheme we have been urs-
ing for Colorado but the plan has not
yet come to fruition-Field and Farm.

Woodcooks In London.

Woodcocks, which duvlng the past few days have been flushed "withiDl 800 yards of the Marble arch." are by no means such rare visitants to Lon don as some ornithologists seem to imagin,. says the London Chronicle. They have from time to time been no- ticed in almost every park or "open space" that contains sheltering shrubs, and occasionally during very hard win ters CT their periods of migration, they have found temporary refuge even in the little derelict churchyards of the city. At the beginning of the last century the. boys of Westminstez school used to get good woodcock shooting among the wilds of Chelsea and Ecttersea. Most of those young sportsmen took preliminary lessons from learned professor who lived near Deans yard and styled himself instructor of young gentlemen In the new art of shooting fying."
