steadily grinding court mill, but each
was a separate problem, necessitat-
ing careful investigation and thought
The generous crop of gray, with
which the Judges hair has been shot
during his incumbency on the domes-
tic relations bench in Omaha is silent
testimony of this fact.
To those who know him best, Judge
Day has been the head of huge trou-

braces not only babes in mothers

older in actual years than is he. As
dad" to them all, the hour has never
been too late or his time too limited
to hear their individual plants and
pleas.
Out of it all has come Judge Days
idea for "The Ideal Family Court"
now being given careful thought and
attention by social workers from one
coast to the other. 1t is based on
five years actual contact with cases
involving domestic relations and he
outlines it in brief as follows:
"There is a great difference of
opinion among those who have work
ed most with these family problems,
about the ideal family court. The
difference is mostly concerned with
the classes of cases which should be
made subject to it's jurisdiction. 1t
seems to me that the jurisdiction OF
the family court should embrace all
cases in which the family relationship
/ is involved.
''The family problem seems para
mount in all cases involving children
including contributing to delinquency
and dependency of minor children
guardianship of a person (but not
guardian of property OF a minor
adoption; securing support for the
unwed mother and her child; the ad-
ministration of the public funds fol-
the support of dependent children
(mothers' pensions); desertion, non
support, abusing wife by physica
violence; cases of divorce, separate
maintenance and annulment.

UNWORTHY TACTICS

It is unfortunate that the Me-
gro is being used to stir up ra-
cial animosities in the presi-
Dental campaign. 1t is being
done by representatives of both
major parties to win votes for
t h ir respective candidates.
Democratic speakers, chiefly
of the south, and let us state
frankly that the narrow-vision-
ed, racially insane south is the
one great reason why it is prac-
tically impossible for the Negro
to divide his vote nationally as
many desire to do--are damn
ing Hoover, because he has re-
moved segregation in his de-
partment and is therefore adj
vocating IS o c a ! equality"
This, of course, is done in the
hope of electing Smith. On the
other hand, to crash the gates
of the solid SOUTH" and win
votes for Hoover, some repub-
lican spellbinders, like Senator
Moses, are holding up the scep-
ire of a Negro official in New
York City, referring to Ferdi-
nand @. Morton, civil service
commissioner, debating to a
white female stenographer."
The purpose of this is quite OBJ
vious. By whomsoever done, it
is a display of a reprehensible
spirit and discloses an attitude
of mind of which Americas
truer self must be most heartily
ashamed. Unworthy tactics
usually defeat themselves.

all the cases just enumerated. There
ought not to be other courts of con-
current jurisdiction entering judg-

with its judgments and thus leave the
final determination doubtful and I'M

"The family court should have a
staff of trained probation officers.
Effective probation work is the heart
and soul of a successful family court.
The judge of the court, though not
so important as the probation staff,
ought to be one interested in the So
cial problems of the family, in addi-
ton to all the other generally ac-
cepted qualifications for the judicial
office. 1t matters not whether the
family court is a specially created
court, but the judge ought to be elect
ed especially for the particular court,
rather than assigned to the division,
in order that he might be in sympathy
with the work.

SALMON FITS
 LENTEN MEAL

With Lenten meatless meals to plan, a dozen cans of salmon will fit well in breakfast, luncheon and dinner menus. The chum variety, a delicate pink fish, costs less than the bright red salmon and is just as fine in flavor. It is equally useful for cocktail, chow der. salad or sandwiches.
 When the family accustomed to beefsteak and pork chops on the table sees eggs baked in Spanish sauce, there may be some dismay at the seeming abstemiousness of the menu. A salmon salad stuff cd in fresh tomatoes adds appe- tizing color, interesting flavor and meaty nourishment to the meal.

The public, in general. cannot appre. ciate the finest music, but it does love gaiety and amusement and that Is what jazz provides.
