NOW ANOTHER QUESTION ARISES

QUESTION has been raised in a dis
cussion of the decision of the Special
supreme curt IN th- salaries of the
Justices of the Supr' me Court. as to
Whistler or NOT members of the Crimi-
nal Court of Appeals may legally diGw
their increases in salaries by virtue of
the special courts decision. So far as
the act CT the 1919 LEGISLATURE is con-
ccrntd, il includes tn" criminal Court
OF Appeals. equally with members of
the supreme Court aS 10 salafy in
creases.
The action of the court, however,
was only brought by one of the JUS
tees of the Supreme Court. and the de-
cision of the Special Court in nc pace
mentions members Of he Criminal
Court Of appeals, and POINTS only to
members of the Suprenv Court Put
the Special Court in Il general way
does say tina there is no incompatl-
bility between the provisions of the
Constitution md the act ~ l9lo. winch
makes the salary increases, and the
act referred 10 does provide increases
for the Criminal Court of Appeals
The members of the Criminal Couri
of Appeals have drawn their increases

unless there were definite charges
and evidence of guilt against her;
and no case taken by the bureau
to the Juvenile Court has been lost.
A particularly cheering feature of
the policewoman's work is the hap
py endings to most of the cases.
The women workers find gratifica-
ton not only in getting girls out of
trouble and starting them on the
right path, but also in keeping In
touch with their progress and help
ing them long after the girls have
passed their probation period.
Readers of the magazine page of
The Times may recall the case OF
Julia" that was published last
autumn. A sequel to that remark
able piece of constructive police
work is that Julia, who was taken
by the Woman's Bureau from a life
of sin and reconstructed socially
fell victim to an ailment for which
she was unable to obtain treatment
i'll any institution. No local hospi-
tai would take the case.
Took Her Case.
In this difficulty Julia turned to
her staunchest friends, the women
of the police department, and not in
vain. Mrs. Van Wrinkle exerted
her influence in the girls behalf,
and finally prevailed on a nationally
known institution in New York to
accept Julia's case. Julia was finally
cured by the eminent specialists,
and she is now a good and happy
girl in New York, from where she
frequently writes optimistic letters
TO her benefactors.
A more recent case is that of n
young woman who, for want of par
ents' or guardians care, drifted into
dangerous company and finally was
brought in" by one OF the police
women. The women of the bureau
detected good traits in her and set
to work to develop them. A friend
ship sprang up between the officers
and the girl.
They instilled into her an ac-
auaintance with the customs and
usages Of good society. and she re-
sponded to the training. A kind
and friendly hair-dresser, who
formed liking for the girl, con-
tributed her bit, and with the aid OF
her art made the young probationer
very pretty and attractive. She was
put into good company, where she
has displayed her ability to make
helpful friends, and she Is on the
way to fine and useful womanhood
