ASKS SPECIAL COURT
FOR PARENT AND CHILD
Judge Lindsey, at Bar Association,
Urges Extension Of Juve-
nile Courts.
Nv Associated Press to Every Evening

Ry Associated Press to Every Evening
ST. Louis, Mo, Aug. 27-Judge Ben
r. Lindsey. of the Denver Juvenile Court,
addressed the American Bar Association
here today on obtaining "justice for
parent and child without cost" He urged
the extension of Juvenile court procedure
such as has been authorized In Colorado.
He said:
IL plead for specialized institution
in every large city, operating Principally
under the powers of civil and chancery
courts in cooperation with various
agencies, TO handle, not only the prob
lens of the parent and child, but class
of adults mostly poor people-who might
be treated very much as we treat children.
In our work for surer, simpler and less
expensive justice for parent and child,
we have found many iustihcations for
such tribunal.
While such specialized institution
must be based primarily In the chancery
procedure, IL NAV also be aided by the
addition of limited criminal procedure.
This is precisely what we have done in
a measure In my own experience. For
while the court over which | have presid-
ed in my own city of Denver, for 20 year
IL known as a place of dealing with law
less children, the problems of dependency,
domestic or family relations IN contro-
vcrsies not only between parents, but
adults concerning their relations to child
rem, have for 10 years occupied the largest
part of its work
I'm practice in these cases there are
absolutely no costs no matter what the
controversy may be. The methods are
the usual ones of these courts, by an in
formal conference about the table in a
sort of clinic Of human adjustment.

Criminal law is that we deal merely with

CLOCKS NEED WATCHING.
Timepieces Made in Germany NJ

The Germans, as We know, took such
a fancy to French clocks in the war Of
1870 that they looted large numbers
of them. There is in Loves Labour's
Lost an entertaining reference to Ger
man clocks by Frenchman. Biron ex-
claims:
What lovel suel seek a wifel
A women that is like a German clock.
Still a-repairing, ever out of frame,
and never going right, being a watch,
But being watch'd that 1T may still

Apparently, there were cheap and
nasty German clocks even in those days.
If the German admiration of Shakes
