The extensiveness of this legisla-
ticn. says the children's bureau, is
the best evidence of the previous un-
satisfactory viewpoint Of the law.
Under the old law the delinquent
child was dealt with in the same man
Eer, with certain restrictions Of age,
as the adult offender He was tried
before a criminal court, with all the
formality and notoriety Of a jury,
sworn testimony and confronting wit
resses If found guilty" the child
suffered the penalty. In no case did
The law extend any constructive help.
Recent years, however, has recog-
nized the right Of the child to rea-
sonable minimum of care, of decency
and Of well-beme Consideration has
been given to the natural impulses of
youth and to the adverse conditions
under which Che child may have been
reared.

CHILD RIGHT
GUARDED
New Viewpoint of Society
Toward Future Citizens

Washington In 4 survey of iuven-
lie court legislation in this country
the United States children's bureau
calls attention to the new viewpoint
o2 society toward future citizens.
Twenty-one years ago the relation
Of the father to his child partook of
the nature of a property right The
courts could enforce this right, but
on the other hand they were powerless
to enforce the duty Of the father to
his child. Since 1899 every state has
passed juvenile courts laws except
Connecticut Maine and Wyoming,
and these three states have legislated
en- questions usually included in juven-
lie court laws.
