Need More Trained Workers To Handle
 Dependent Children

recommendations for more trained
 workers, and physicians aud physo- cologtcal examinations of children be- fore commitment to county homes is board of charities An investigation of children and county homes in Mid dlesex and Fairfield counties by the board furnished data for the report, the substance of which follows:
 '-The first step toward the improve ment of the present situation will be the creation on the part of the state of new facilities for inSuring coop eratfon between the county homes and the public and private agencies which have had the care of the families from which the children are commit ted.
 Before the child is admitted to the county home a thorough physical and made. and in case admission to the home then seems the best solution, Immediate plans for the child's future should be formulated by the county officials in cooperation with the trained agents of the state.
 ''The connection between the child and its former home should be main tained whenever there is possibility of the return of the child if condi- uons be improved. In the meantime the child should be placed as early as possible in a properly selected fos- ter home.
 ''In all cases a sufficient number of workers should be at the disposal of the state to make a thorough investi- gadon in advance, as to the fitness of the home and to give careful super vision of the child after placement. "It is evident that the first essential in meeting the situation is an ade- Quate number of trained workers at the states disposal, clothed with ade- quate authority to find foster homes and place children in them, if neces- sary boarding them out. The cor relation of all local agencies could then be assured and the children treated as individuals The county homes would then be relieved to such an extent of the burdens they now bear that measures could be taken for the training and to give careful supervision of the children who would shen remain in them, including chiefly | those detectives who are absolutely l impossible risks as regards placemen | and for whom admission cannot be 1 found at present in other state ins1- | tutionS."
