URGES A PLAN
TO HELP YOUNG
WANDERERS HERE
Judge Mayfield Says they
Should Be Saved
From Evil

>outhful idlcness and the wan
derlust, which prevail to a con
siderable extent throughout Imperial
valley, quite often resulting in
criminal offenscS, as court records
SHOW, has prompted Judge Mayficld
OF the Ell Centre town court, to ad
dress the following letter to the
Press.
Editor, Imperial Valley Press
There is a matter, which to me
IS OF great Importance, and which |
hehevc concerns the publ.c and de-
mands the attention of society in
general, that / would like to discuss.
1t is the great number of BOYS, or
young men still in their teens who
are frequently found wandering from
place to place, without visible means
OF support and out Of employment.
These young men and boys are
susceptible to the wiles of the hard
cned criminals with whom circum-
stances often make them associate
and they are liable to arrest by Il
peace officer upon Vagrancy
charge. Sometimes more serious
charge is brought against them. The
inevitable end, if convicted, is q
term in iail or some school of cor
rection, or possibly IN the peniten-
tiary.
Need An Organization
Such conditions should not pre-
vail, and the many eases that have
come before me under such circum-
tanccS as above mentioned, have
deeply impressed me with the crying
need of an organization of men aud
women, whose duties i would be to
inquire into such cases rs referred
to, and to direct these youths into
worthy pursuits. saving them from
possible criminal Scrvitudc.
"Thcrc is great field for good
work along this line and the urgent
need of 1t can scarcely be cXaggcrat
ed. The work would be of ncces-
Sitv, m act of benevolence and out
side the pale Of the courts.
Il would be glad to have sugges
t.on9 from anyonyc interested along
this line, and to cooperate i'll such
work us far as is possible.
Very sincerely,
l. Mayfield.'
