a goal to battle toward, and a reward
worth while at the end. If these
units can be made to do so their uni
ted efforts, although carried on inde-
pendently, will surely react for a
greater prosperity for the whole and
thus relieve many of the irritations
already mentioned.
WHAT OF This IDEA
With this as general basis on
which to speculate it is not possible
that the mind of America can be re-
moved from the ache of its feet If
concentrated on something else and
especially if that something else is a
curative agent that is working all the
time toward national, spiritual and
economic health.
What is man most proud of, most
eager to work for, most desirous to
retain once secured, most insistant
upon remaining fine and center for
all his own hopes and ambitions as
we'll as those he entertains for his
family? The answer is, of course, the
home The home may be rented
flat, it is true, but it needs no deep
speculation or careful consideration
to see that the man who owns his own
home is far more deeply interested
in the welfare of his neighborhood,
his ward, city, state and country. 1t
is obvious then that it will be good
thing for these various political and
geographical locations if he be made
to own home.
PERHAPS A CURE.
We have period of depression at
present as all know. What more Gre
ative of optimism, Of an active labor
market, of a renewed faith and ambi-
tion, of quickened production,
could be suggested than a general
move to build homes by all the thous-
ands of men who should be building
them, buying them, owning them, but
who for any one of many reasons are
now renters? If a national campaign
could be organized and launched with
the support and cooperation of all
civic boards of trade, real estate
boards, organizations of builders,
lumber dealers, brick manufacturers,
in fact every producing group that is
a creator of materials used in build
ing, there is little doubt but what
every newspaper in the country that
has the Interests, of its city at heart,
and that means all papers, would
join in hearty cooperation.

would be limitless, the pocket books
opened uncountable, the trade stimu-

THE STATE AND THE CHILD
Its A PARENT PROBLEM
Famous Judge Shows Where
Responsibility Lies
Child IS Super Parent, the
State, Must Aid
By JUDGE BEN B. LINDSEY.

There is no child problem that is
not parent problem and there is
no parent problem that Is not an eco
nomic and industrial problem. There
fore, the state cannot escape its re-
sponsibility for the child any more
than can the parent. This response
bility | have sometimes called the
.SUPER-PARENTHOOD OF THE
STATE. We find it exercised by the
State in the education of the child,
but it must be remembered that it
is responsibility at first grudgingly
undertaken by the State and one fin
ally accepted after bitter opposition
Free schools we're once ragged"
schools and our magnificent public
school system was originally looked
upon with more or less scorn as be-
ing only for the poverty stricken
poor.
The state also assumes very great
responsibility for the morality of the
child through its Children's Courts
Here it no longer treats the child
as criminal, but as one of its own
children to be aided, helped, edu.
Gated and redeemed"
The next great step which the state
is going to take in its responsibility
for the child is in seeing that nc
child shall suffer just because of the
poverty, ignorance or certain Other
faults of the natural parent leas

ton to the state itself to prevent the
tragedies of childhood that come
from such causes. But consistent
with this idea is the one | have al
ways equally advocated, namely, that
as part of this very duty and func-
tion of the state, is also its RESPONSE
biliy-by adequate legislation-to
see to it that in the first instance the
parent should be made to perform,
or, in proper cases, should be assist
ed to perform these functions. Yet
if for any reason this is not posi-
BILE, then the state must do it. And
it must be done where possible in
the natural home Of the child-how-
ever humble that home is.
CHILDREN UNDERFED.
From a survey Of one school in a
typical American city, it was discov-
cred that 80 per cent of the children
in that school had only one parent
generally the mother. This was due
to such causes, often unavoidable, as
death, insanity, separation, desertion,
etc. In that same school, half of the
children were underfed and sadly
neglected as to health, largely be-
cause Of such conditions as poverty
and unemployment, even where both
parents were living. Thus in spite
of holding the parent to every pos
sible responsibility, it was impossible
to secure for one-half of the children
in that school the justice, | believe
them entitled to.
Here is where the child's super
lparent--the state-must step in. II
must do what the natural parent
could not do, or that the state failet
to make them do. The state mus
provide, in such cases, the service;
of doctors, food and health experts
including the food-and other where
withals for health, 1t must be jus
as free as education is free. Other
wise, of what use is education?
1t is we'll for us to remember tina
when the very life of the state i,
imperiled by war, it has the right tt
go into the homes and take the chilt
of IS with or without the consen
of the parent and send him to tht
battle fronts Of the world, to la,
down his life, if need be, for th'
state, and surely the child is taugh
that it is a part of its duty, in sucl
an emergency, to give up his life, i

lation beyond calculation and the
very business boom thus created in
turn would make new individuals
capable and willing to build and buy
homes and thus go further along a
move that seems we'll fated to be an
endless circle Of good.
The recent war brought home to
this nation as never before what a
home may mean and how dearly it
should be held, especially to those
who were over seas came the realiza-
ton that the nations are built Of the
homes and the greatest unity of pur-
pose and unity Of ambition rested
where homes we're owned, not by the
few but by the many.
