Juvenile Court Changes,

A fundamental conception underlying
the Juvenile Court bill, recently passed
by the House, is that conditions con-
tribuSsA 20 juvenile delinquency are
q rnoss important than the offense with
with the delinquent may be charged;
that the inquiry into and the correction
OF such conditions are more important
to the Government and to the child
than mere punishment. Under this con-
ception the nature of the present Juve-
nile Court would be changed from that
OF police court with Jurisdiction over
minors to that of a chancery or equity
court concerning itself largely with dis
covery and removal of conditions con-
tr1buting to child delinquency
The bill has undergone thorough study
already, by the previous corporation
counsel, by House committee which
held extensive hearings and by experts
in Juvenile Court legislation With that
background it becomes difficult to under
stand the purpose of the drastic changes
now proposed in the measure by the
present corporation counsel The changes
are in effect contradictory to the pur-
poses of the bill. They have been argued
before and, after argument, discarded.
Evening star., 1937-03-14

In the opinion of the proponents of the
bill, they would constitute backward.
rather than forward, step in Juvenile
Court legislation.
Most vital of the changes is that to strike
out the provision of the billswhich leaves
investigation of complaints and initiation
of cases with qualified officer of the
court and to place these duties in the
hands of the corporation counsel. This
officer would also prosecute" cases, al
though a fundamental purpose OF the
new legislation is to get away entirely
from the idea of prosecution" and the
legalistic processes which have made the
court criminal court
The amendments proposed require that
the bill receive further study, through
open hearings, before being reported to
the Senate. The changes are of great
Importance and affect the bill funda-
mentally.

WAYSIDE SOIL
BY THE RIGHT REV JAMES E. FREEMAN d. IL D. D. c. L.
BISHOP WASHINGTON.

The power Of graphic, picturesque illus
tration was never more effectively used
than by the worlds master teacher, Jesus
Christ. In His profound teaching He
always employed striking SMILES. He
taught by parallels and in doing 50 He
reached the mind of the child as we'll as
that of the reflective man. His parallels
have entered SO widely into the worlds
literature that they are universally known.
The parable of the Good Samaritan
what an impulse 1t has given to
beneflcent service; the parable of the
Prodigal Son-how it has interpreted, as
no other descriptive word ever has, the
extent of divine love and forgiveness.
Another and widely quoted parable is
that OF the SoWer and the Seed. 1t is a
study OF soil values and their fertility
The main emphasis is on the capacity
Of the soil to receive and give life to the
soWn seed. In this parable the Master
likens the seed to the Word of God"
the living truth that is designed for mans
highest satisfaction and truest develop
ment; seed that has the capacity to
enrich life here and to generate in man
the potentialities of an eternal being.
In this graphic parable Jesus used
various types of life for the purpose of
showing mans capacity or incapacity to
receive and appropriate that which the
soWer of the seed bestoWs
We consider but one of these types of
human soil. Jesus said: "a soWer went
out to sow his seed, and as he soWed
some fell by the wayside and it was
trodden down" Wayside soil immedi-
ately suggests soil that borders the road,
perfectly good, but so close to the high
way that it becomes hardened and unre-
ceptive to the seed by reason of the con-
slant treading of the many feet that daily
pass over it. Wayside soil is close to the
confused world where men and women of
varying motives make it barren and un-
productive by their incessant trampling
of its surface
The great Teacher could have used
nothing more descriptive of multitudes
OF people whose lives are unresponsive
to His mighty teachings because their
