POLICE Do WELFARE WORK
Tell Patrolmen to be Big Brother to the Children of the Slum Section of Chicago.

Chicago, Feb. 15.--Better pictures and literature, neighborhood facilities for recreation, and making "big brothers of the policemen, are some of the things suggested to ministers and lay members of Protestant churches by the Chicago Church Fed eration in a pamphlet on making Chicago safe for children.
 Children must be taught the ways Of safety. and morons and speeders must be eliminated If the children of a community are to be safe. the pamphlet says, while the literature at some news stands lis rank poison" to a childs mind and imagination.
 Your church can cooperate with the school and the home to correct wrong tendencies inspired by neigh borhood hang outs and can be sub stituted by trained, supervised and morally helpful gymnasiums or play grounds.
 Cultivate acquaintance with the patro man, he can tell you much. They should be big brothers to the children. Call a meeting at which they are invited to be present.

 Whatever the Soviet government is or is not doing for the Russian people" Mir. Lydenberg continued, it is making il possible for them to read books And the Russian people are availing themselves with remarkable ayidity of the new opportunities placed in their hands by the Bolshe- vik administration in Moscow.
 "I was impressed, wherever l trav- eled, by the moving libraries along the rail lines, from the Polish from tier to Moscow and from Moscow to the Balkans. The libraries are in- stalled on trains which make stops of u few days at all stations, down to the little villages. The people take out books for home reading, and then return them on subsequent trip Of the library on wheels. The amount of business done by these ambulant libraries is impressive"
