The overall craze that is sweeping
over the United States. though Il can
have little direct economic value, is an
interesting expression Of popular an
ger against the clothing profiteers. In
isolated cases IT already has caused
some reduction Of prices, but in gen.

demonstration that is likely to be
taken up by faddists and distorted out
OF all reason.
We are still waiting TO be told. au-
thentically, how the cost OF living can
be lowered. The experts have been
saying that increased production Is
the solution OF the matter, but when

DEAL JUSTLY WITH CHILDREN
Almost Every Country Now Has
Courts to Handle Cases Of Juve-
nile Delinquency.

The example set by the United
States in establishing juvenile courts
has been followed by all the princi-
pal countries Of Europe. Spain, the
last to fall in line, has adopted the
modern viewpoint that delinquent chill
dren should not be treated as crimi-
nails, but rather as victims Of adverse
conditions and surroundings. In work
ing out the details of the law, Spanish
authorities have followed Americas
experience, according to information
received by the children's bureau OF
the United States department Of
labor.
Under the Spanish law the children's
Judge is not necessarily member of
the bench. He is assisted by two ad-
visory members appointed by the CONF
mission for the protection Of children.
Privacy is guarded very closely in the
Spanish Juvenile courts; no one ex-
cept probation officers is allowed in
the court unless by special permission,
and the press is forbidden to publish
any information about cases of juvenile
delinquents.
Since Chicago established the first
juvenile court In 1899. similar courts
have been, established in England.
France, Belgium, Holland, Denmark,
Switzerland, Italy, Germany, Russia,
Austria and Hungary.
