Board
Favors Easing Of
Child Labor Law
Backs Commissioners
In Plan to Widen
Student Employment

The Board of Education has
agreed to the Commissioners pro-
posal to liberalize the District child
labor law to permit wider employ
ment of students for the duration
of the war.
Both the board members and the
Commissioners agree that girls 16
and II years of age should no longer
be barred from jobs in theaters
and hotels except actual cleaning
work in hotel rooms. They have
also agreed that hours of night en-
ployment for these girls should be
raised from 7 pm. to 10 pm.
Stand on Work Permits"
The board, however, has recon-
mended that the Commissioners
strike from their proposed modif1-
cation of the law clause stripping
the school officials of the authority
to issue work permits" for all chill
dren under 18.
Data that all children under Is
must give to school officials to get
the permits, it was explained, keeps
the youngsters from taking any
illegal employment. Managers of
all types of business are required
to show these work permits for any
employees under 18 years.
This modification is a back to
school movement" Lawson j. Can
trell, superintendent of shcools in
charge of junior high schools, ex-
planned to the board when it re-
viewed the Commissioners propos-
ais yesterday. Loosening of regula-
tions to permit more night work, he
explained, will permit children who
want to work to spend more time
in school during the day.
Business managers are now re-
quired to keep such close super
vision of their personnel, Acting
Supt. of Schools Haycock told the
board. that possibility of immoral
conditions for Is and II year old
girls working at night is remote.
The board reserved the right, how
ever, later to recommend prohibi-
ton of employment of young girls in
any capacity in burlesque houses.
Under the recommendations sent
to the Commissioners, no student
could work and attend school more
than total of nine hours a dav
and eight hours on nonschool days.
Hours for boys setting pins in
bowling alleys were set forward only
to 10 pm. The Commissioners had
suggested curfew of midnight for
these boys.
At the same time board members
approved work study" plan
whereby students Is and II years
old can 60 to school in the morning
and work four hours in the after
noon, eight hours on a holiday. For
this work, supervised by school
personnel, they will get academic
credit. Students IA and is years
of age can work three hours after
school and eight on holidays, but
not after 7 pm.

Juvenile Court Clinic
For Delinquent Youth
10 Be Opened Oct. |
Judge Bentley HoiIs
Institution as Major
Step in Fight on Crime

When the new Juvenile Court
clinic opens October i, it will mark
major step in coping with the
problems of child delinquency, ac-
cording to Judge Fay L. Bentley,
who has been working for five years
to obtain the clinic.
The clinic will be stated by a
psychiatrist, psychologist and a
trained nurse and is located on the
second floor of the Juvenile Court
Building.
Discussing the new clinic, Judge
Bentley expressed the belief that it
is a welcome innovation in a period
where there is much talk but little
action about juvenile delinquency.
Clinic No "Cure-All."
I'VE expect it to be a great factor
in helping child delinquents," she
said.
The judge cautioned, however,
that the public should not regard
the clinic as "cure-all."
Some of the basic problems can
not be solved by psychiatrists, how
ever competent" she said, citing
poor housing and economic condi-
tions as examples III which clinical
treatment would not be of much
help.
The United States Public Health
Service has announced the appoint
ment of DR.. Stanley Geshell as
psychiatrist for the clinic. The name
OF the psychologist will be an
nounced shortly.
Congress recently authorized the
Commissioners to request the clini-
cal facilities from the USPHS.
Not all cases will be referred to
the clinic for diagnosis and treat
ment, Judge Bentley said. Only in
instances where court investigators
can find no apparent reason for the
child's behavior will cases be sent to
the clinic.
To Determine Mentality.
The psychologists examination of
the children will be in the nature of
screening process to determine
ability and mentality. If the tests
show average or better than average
intelligence, the case will be sent to
DR., Geshell for diagnosis and treat
ment.
TT would be futile to send sub
normal patients to Dr. Geshell for
treatment because psychiatrist can
only help people intelligent enough
to cooperate with him in the treat
ment," Judge Bentley said.
She said only the proper institu-
tions could deal with cases where
the child has subnormal intelli-
gence.
Depended on Private Clinics.
DR.. Geschell, an expert in child
care. will conduct physical as we'll
as a medical examination of chill
dren sent to him. Recently the doc
tor has been on duty at the Gov
ernment Health Farm at Lexington,
KY.
Heretofore the court had to de-
pend on the facilities of private
clinics to aid the children.
They were most generous" said
Judge Bentley, but they simply did
not have enough time and space to
give us in examining all the young
sters."

Public Health Service
Offers Expert 10 Aid
In GaIIinger Inquiry
McCorron Expects
To Name Group for
Senate Investigation

The United States Public Health
Service has offered the services of
DR.. William F. Ossenfort, one Of
Surgeon General Thomas Parran's
assistants, to aid the Senate District
Committee if its proposed investiga-
ton OF conditions at Gallinger Hos
pital is authorized by the Senate.
Anticipating swift approval of his
resolution authorizing the investiga-
ton, Committee Chairman McCar-
ran planned an early conference
with DR.. Ossenfort at which he will
turn over to him a petition signed
by 149 patients in the hospitals
tuberculosis ward, protesting about
the quality and the quantity of food
served them and the alleged lack of
proper sanitation in the toilets and
other places.
The petition of protest inspired
the proposed investigation which the
committee has approved unani-
mously, but which. still lacks SEN
ate Endorsement. Senator McCar-
ran will seek action when the Sen.
ate reconvenes tomorrow after 8
one-day recess.
Senator McCarran said that a.
soon as the Senate adopts the reso.
luton he will appoint special sub
committee to make the investigation
and probably will name himself a!
one of the members.
The McCarran proposal for thu
inquiry already has resulted in offers
from number of persons, some ol
them former patients at the hos.
pital, to testify voluntarily as te
what they know about conditions
in the tuberculosis ward. Charges
in letter written by one of the
volunteer witnesses, it was said, bear
out most of the accusations made
in the protest petition of the las
patients.
Maury Maverick. former House
member from Texas and now di.
rector of the Government division
of the War Production Board, who
made study of conditions at Gal
linger about six months ago, said
meanwhile, that complaints of the
patients may be due to overcrowd-
ing and the lack of sufficient help
in the ward and the kitchen.
He suggested that some of the
tuberculosis patients be transferred
to the District tuberculosis Sana-
torium at Glenn Dale, Md, where
he declared, there are many vacant

FRANCIS "A. gregory mas been ap-
pointed principal of Armstrong High
School and Mrs. D. Inborden Miller,
principal of the Martha Washing
ton Vocational School.
At the same time that these ap-
pointments were made yesterday by
the Board of Education, its commit
tee on complaints and appeals took
charge of a plea by a special COM
mittee of the District Federation of
Civic Associations for investigation
of alleged racial discrimination in
the school attendance department
of the public schools.
Mrs. Alice Sheldon, director of the
school attendance department, has
been accused by the committee of
creating a hostile, carping and
fault finding" atmosphere for colored
workers in her department. 1t is
the only Office in the school system
that does not have a colored ad-
ministrator in addition to an ad-
ministrator for the white schools.
"Cleayages" Charged.
Mrs. Sheldon makes sharp
cleavage" between races, the special
committee declared, and gives "dif-
ferential treatment" in official and
semiofiicial relationships and in per-
sonnel administration. The report
was signed by Woolsey Hall, chair
man of the special group.
Mrs. Sheldon has submitted to
Acting Supt. of Schools Haycock a
reply to the complaint of the Civic
Federation committee. Her reply
will be studied by Mr.. Haycock and
then filed with the boards Commit
tee on Complaints and Appeals for
consideration along with the Fedora
tion's letter.
There will always be criticism of
the type represented by this letter."
she declared, until there is a sep
arate department or a colored at
tendance supervisor and rating Of
ficer." She said she had expressed
the same opinion to the superintend-
ent of schools several times.
She said she would welcome an in
vestigation of all the charges in
hopes it would focus attention of
board members on difficulties in
volved in the administrative and
supervisory problems of the attend
ance department.
Cites Good Relations.
In discussing the Federation's let
ter, Mrs. Sheldon emphasized that
colored clerks in her Office never had
complained to her of discrimination
They have given evidence of being
happy in their work, she said, and
in their relationships with her.
The director of attendance also
mentioned that two colored assistant
superintendent of schools join with
two white superintendent in rating
her efficiency every year. AS evil
dence of their confidence in her in
tegrity, she said, she had received
consistently high ratings.
The complaints and appeals COM
mittee is expected to complete it's
investigation of the complaint in a
short time. John Wilson is chairman
of the committee.
The new principal of the Arm
strong High School, Mr.. Gregory,
has been principal of the Phelps
Vocational School. Mrs. Miller has
been head of the department of
