TRACES CAUSES
OF WAYWARDNESS
Probation Officer Discusses
Problems Affecting Youth.

ct is the inveterate demand of youth
that life furnish a large elemetn Of ex-
element and parental ignorance and neg
lect and sOciety's stupid indifference to
this demand are largely responsible for
much of the waywardness of our boys
and girls,'' said Miss Laurel c. Thayer
addressing the Teachers College this
afternoon. Miss Thayer is probation
officer of the city court.
Parents are too busy or too Indifferent
to plan for the leisure hours Of their
children" Miss Thayer said, with the
result that the city has what it con
siders bigger problems to solve. Amuse-
ments become commercialiZed and we
have the Objectionable movie and the
public hall"
Miss Thayer recounted the story of a
girl who came to Indianapolis from the
hills of Kentucky with her brother. The
brother returned home leaving the girl
employed in a hotel kitchen. Later
she was picked up at . o'clock in the
morning by officers IN a West Wash
ington street cafe. She is now in a State
institution. The girl was motherless at
6 and, seven months later, the father,
then 80, married a 15-year-old girl. There
were six children by his first marriage
and Eve by the second. The nearest
town was fourteen miles away, and the
only amusement for the elder children
was treading behind the plow.
Need we wonder that two Nof this
family sought york and freedom in our
city," asked the speaker.
"A psychopathic institution would do
much to eliminate this TYPE Of girl from
our Streets" Miss Thayer concluded,
saying that persons afflicted with ar
rested mental development could be
studied and treated as patients, instead
of being fined or dismissed from courts,
or in dangerous cases sent to Jail pend
ing commitment as judges are now
forced to do"

captured by the police" in the raid on
the home of Harry Derby, 1852 Ashland
avenue. The court gave him the 1925
and the attorney hurried from the court
room. A minute later Lieutenant Jones
asked the court for the 1925 gambling
money for the police pension fund and
the court told the policeman the attor-
ney for the defense had captured the
lunch funds" and had disappeared
Charges of keeping a gambling house
against Derby were dismissed and the
charges Of visiting a gambling house
against nine others, including an ex-
policeman, were dismissed, but in the
charges Of gaming against the ten men,
Judge Pritchard said, he would with
hold judgment. The court. however, did
not return the deck of cards and the
l75 poker chips captured by the police
in the raid.

drink place at 225 East Washington

LEADERS SEE
GAIN IN TARIFF
BILL SUPPORT
Report Striking Distance
Reached in Senate Plan to
Invoke CIOture.
MEASURE MAY PASS

WASHINGTON. Jan. 17.-Supporters
of the emergency tariff bill in the Senate
reported today they are within three or
four votes Of the two-thirds necessary
to invoke clotuTe which, under the Sen
ate rules, would restrict debate on the
measure and choke of the flibuster
planned by ITS opponents.
They also hoped to be able to command
the two-thirds vote necessary to over
ride President Wilson's veto of the bill,
if it reaches him, they stated.
They predicted the bill would be passed
before the end of the present session,
despite the amendments with which it
has been loaded down, and the dilatory
tactics Of its opposition.
PENRoSE
REPORTS BILL.
The bill WIS reported to the Senate by
Senator Penrose, Republican of Penn
sylvania, chairman of the Senate Finance
Committee. who favors most of the
changes which were made in it by a ma
jOrity CT the committee 1t was unde-
termined, however, how soon the Senate
would begin consideration of it.
Penrose gave notice that lat an early
date" he would move to make the bill
the unfinished business of the Senate and
would make every effort to push it to
an early passage"
The hands Of the Republican leaders of
the Senate have been strengthened by
the addition of Senators Gooding of Ida
ho. and Willis of Ohio. to the slim Re
publican majority. Gooding replaces for
mer Senator Nugent Of Idaho, a Dem
ocrat he defeated for reelection. Willis
restores an active Republican vote which
the absence Of President-elect Harding,
whom he succeeds, deprived the Repub-
lican leaders.
Eliminating Senator Newberry of
Michigan, the contest of whose election
IS still causing him to absent himself
from the Senate chamber, the Repub-
icans now command. with the recent re-
turn Of Senator Penrose, forty nine
votes, their original majority.
COUNT ON SUPPORT
OF DEMOCRATS.
It IS estimated from eight to eleven
Democratic Senator's, due to the pres
sure from the agricultural interests Of
their States, which are strongly support
ing the tariff bill, are prepared to vote
with the Republicans for the measure.
Eleven Democratic votes added to the
fOrty-nine Republication Senator Nc
Cormiek Of Illinois, now touring Europe
and other abSenteess are eApecleu 10 re-
turn in time for the final vOte-wOuld
give the bills supporters sixty votes or
within four Of the sixty -four necessary
TO provide a two-thirds.
Protection for wheat, wool, cotton, pea
nuts, sugar, rice, frozen meats-prod-
ucts of the East, South and West-em-
bodied in the bill as reported from COM
mlttee, is likely to increase the number
Of its supporters. Republican leaders be-
lieve.
The margin between the bills support
ers and opponents has narrowed down so
that the leaders of the latter admit they
are no longer so sure Of their ability
10 prevent it's passage. They lack the
moral support of the President, who has
declined to utter one word to help them
10 keep Democratic Senators in line who
have bolted, or are threatening TO bolt
the Democratic minority leadership.
