Injunction Fight Goes On,
Regardless of Settlement

CHICAGO. Sept. 13.-The court
battle over Attorney General Daugh-
erty's strike injunction will go on
before Judge WiIkerson regardless
Of the partial settlement of the
Shopmen's strike
The government contends that
the principles involved in this is
sue are more important than any
immediate issue or immediate eff
feet of the injunction it was stated
tonight.
Although it is believed that the
Governments attorneys may make
some notifications In the injunc-
tion sought. no indication of this
has as yet become apparent The
government continued to flood the
hearing today with countless affi-
davits concerning acts of violence
in connection with the strike. AS
sistant Attorney General a. A. Nc
LaUghlin told he court that he
did not think attorney Donald
RichberE's claim that l.. ". Jewell
and John Scott. president and

Report of Board Ignores
Criticisms of Its Ac-

HAS CARE OF 1883
Declares Use of Foster Homes
Decreases Runaways by
so Per Cent.
HAS CARE OF 2,Ss;

Completely ignoring the con-
troversy which has eentered about
its activities. the Board Of Childrsn's
Guardians yesterday made public
its annual report covering the past
fiscal year. The report. which con-
tains a defense Of the practice of
placing children in boarding homes,
shows that 26s such homes are
available for use by the board.
During the past year q total Of
1883 children have been in the Gus
tody of the Guardians. OF this num-
Der g736 are permanent wards. Ac-
cording to the report there are
fewer children IN the care of the
Guardians this year than usual.
This is accounted for by the belief
that private charity has reduced
the number which ordinarily would
have applied to the Guardians for
aid.
AID sought for 25s.
The Guardians received during
the year 256 applications for aid
The majority of these applications
it is stated. came from friends or
relatives of children left destitute
through desertion or death OF
parents
One hundred and ffty-six children
were committed to the Guardians
during this period. OF that number
l16 were temporary commitments
and 40 were permanent. all Of which
were made by the Juvenile Court.
Replying indirectly to charges
that a number of boarding homes
IN which children have been placed
are unfit for such use, the report
states:
1T has been possible during this
year to use family homes for wards
more than formerly and with great
success for all types of children.
More Are Being Added.
Two hundred and sixty-eight
carefully selected boarding homes
are now available and new ones are
being constantly added. showing
that families are more interested
than ever TO share their homes with
children who. for various reasons,
have been removed from their own
homes. II IL not possible to esti-
mate the value of the unselfish help
OF foster parents in their care ano
training OF children and in the
countless services which they rem
der to them.
From the more constant use OF
foster homes the decrease in run
Always has been marked. There are
at present so per cent fewer run
aways than there were three years
ago when institutional care was
more used for temporary place
ments."
