Liquor Offenses, Thefts
Are Principal Violations
BY the Associated Press.

0y tne ASSOclAUeo Press.
RICHMOND, April 15.-Last year
1914 children under II were placed
in Virginia jails, DR.. William H
Stauffer, commissioner of public
welfare, has informed the Virginia
Advisory Legislative Councils Com
mittee on Child Welfare.
The commissioner submitted fig
ures at a public hearing showing that
II per cent of the children went to
jail for offenses involving liquor,
1913 per cent for burglary and 1875
per cent for petit larceny.
Corrections Commissioner Rice M.
Youell and John r. Ellingston of
Philadelphia urged passage Of q
youth correction authority act to
carry further the penal reforms be-
gun by the General Assembly of 1912.
The high rate Of juvenile jail
commitments was shown in war
congested areas. In Norfolk 8 per
cent, Portsmouth and Petersburg,
per cent: Arlington, Newport News
and Fairfax County each about
per cent, and Richmond, 2 per cent.
while it is recognized that the
nature of many Of the offenses COM
mitted by juveniles leave little
choice to the apprehending officer
other than incarceration in jail," I"
DR.. Staui1er said. 1T Is dimcult
to believe that the bulk Of these
children merit such disposition. A
considerable portion Of these chill
dren could be returned TO their own
homes while awaiting disposition Of
their cases."

Housewives Here Face
Lean Potato Supply
For Next Six Weeks
Stocks Will Be Light
Through May Because
OF Government Needs

District housewives today had
small hope that they would get ar
adequate supply of potatoes for
their families during the next 81,
weeks after the Food Administration
| yesterday took control of the re-
naming supplies of Maine potatoes.
The Government agency said the
potato situation would continue to
be tight" through May because
Government requirements have tc
be met and farmers had to be pro-
vided with seed for their new crop
Under the new order, every ship
per must obtain permit from the
Presque Island CMeD Office of the
Food Administration. Before sucn
permit will be issued, the shipper
must agree to sell to Federal pro-
curement officials as many potatoes
as may be required. Remaining
stocks will be released for civilian
consumption.
Shippers Must Get Permits.
Shippers also must obtain permits
to ship seed potatoes.
It was estimated that between
5000 and 1000 car1oads-about one
third of the Nations supply of ole
crop potatoes-remain to be shipped
out of Maine. Other old crop sup
plies come from the North Central
States. Colorado, Idaho and Oregon
A carload of Idaho potatoes ar
rived at the Water street yards,
Twelfth and Water streets Sc, this
morning and were distributed to an
assemblage Of eager dealers. A
spokesman for the Idaho potato
growers said this probably was the
last shipment that would arrive
from Idaho for the duration unless
Government regulations covering
food supplies and transportation are
relaxed. Shippers, he said, are
finding it too burdensome to send
potatoes over long distances in the
face of governmental restrictive
measures.
Dealers said that even in normal
years the potato supply in April and
May is delicately balanced because
this season is a transitional period
between old and new crops. The
present shortage occurred, they said
chiefly because of the requirements
of the Government.
Potatoes Here Disappearing.
The few potatoes in the District
rapidly were disappearing, with nc
| new shipments in sight. Normally
80 carloads week are shipped into
this area. Last week a contractor
supplying District government hos
pitfalls managed to procure five car.
loads, but two of these promptly
were taken over by the armed
services.
The only ray of hope in the situa-
ton was the report that the crop OF
early potatoes, which are beginning
to appear on the market from South
ern States, will be somewhat larger
than normal this year. Potatoes are
now moving in from Florida and
Texas in small quantities, with other
supplies expected later from Cali
fornia, Alabama and other parts of
the South.

Quiz of McNutt on Father Draft
Indicated WhenHe Seeks Funds
Request for Larger Dependency Payments
May Touch Off Bottle With Opponents

The coming draft of fathers pre-
dicted by the War Manpower chair
man has focused attention on the
question of allowances to depend
ents. Mr.. McNutt told a press con-
ference earlier this week he didn't
know how many hardship cases
would result from the father draft.
Congress, however, has been con-
sistent in its effort to postpone the
draft of fathers or even exempt
them from service, and probably
would hesitate to grant Mr.. Nc
Nuts request if it felt that by doing
SO it was Fastening the draft of
fathers in any way.
Mr.. McNutt mentioned hardship
cases among the families of Ma
tional Guardsmen who were called
to active duty regardless of de-
pendents.
Will Determine Size of Class Sd.
The size of the dependency bene-
fits, it has been indicated, will have
an important effect on the number
of men put into the newly estab-
lished Glass Sd, in which are
placed men whose induction would
cause undue hardship, privation
and suffering to their dependents.
just who will go into Sd is being
left to the common sense OF draft
boards" Hardship cases. it was ex-
planned, will be decided not on the
basis Of the way the family was &C
cilstomed to live but the Giving
standard Of the community" in
which the family resides.
The size Of the family will not be
the deciding factor since a man
with five children may have suff1-
cient income to support his family
after he enters the service while the
father Of one child might leave his
family destitute if he Withdrew his
support.
In some cases, classification in
Sd will mean little more than a
stay Of induction. For instance, a
draft board might put prospective
father in Sd until his wife is over
an illness or might put a son in Sd
until he has been able to make other
arrangements for the support of an
invalid mother.
Some draft boards have asserted
definitely they would resign rather
than take fathers unless they felt
the dependents would be sufficiently
provided for under the allowances
paid by the Government and the al
lotments made by the soldiers.
Under the present system, the
Governments contribution to a wife
is $28, and the soldiers is $22, max
ing a total to wife only of $50 a
month. A wife with one child gets
$62 a month, with $40 more for each
additional child Where there is a
child but no wife, the total monthly
allowance is $42, which also is in
creased by $40 per additional child.
A single parent, such as depend
ent mother, gets $37 month with
IS added for each additional COL
lateral dependent in the family. The
monthly allowance could go as high
as SIP, for instance, for a wife, four
children and one parent.

BY MIRIAM GUTENBERG.

War Manpower Chairman Paul
V. McNutt will be called on to
justify the draft of fathers if he
goes to Congress with a request for
increased payments to the de-
pendents of family men in hard
ship cases, it was indicated on
Capitol Hill today.
Mr.. McNutt said "some changes
are indicated" in the payments to
dependents of servicemen, but
Chairman May of the House Military
Affairs Committee said he did not
believe Congress would boost al
lowances and allotments to de-
pendents.
Mr.. May said Congress wanted
to stick to the policy that bona
flde families should not be broken
up until absolutely necessary, re-
gardless of financial provisions.
Senator Wheeler, Democrat, OF
Montana went on record last night
in favor of fiat exemptions of fathers
whose children were born before the
Pearl Harbor attack, "even if we had
to put time limit on the period Of
exemption"
He plans to propose amendments
to the House-approved Kilday bill to
provide blanket deferments for
fathers As well as to require physi-
Cal examinations now for all regis
trants to determine whether they are
ht for Army duty.
Changes in Orders Hit.
"We ought to be sure" he said,
"that we don't draft men with chill
dren until we know there is a definite
need for them. These constant
changes in orders by the Manpower
Commission and selective service
are disruptive to morale"
The Kilday bill, designed mainly
to eliminate the work or-fight'
policy which threatens men in non-
essential work with draft induction
unless they transfer to essential
work, also puts draft quotas on a
Statewide basis and provides for
postponing the induction of fathers
until the supply of eligible single
men and childless married men is
exhausted.
Mr.. Wheeler proposed amending
the bill to require the Army to
furnish doctors to draft boards for
the purpose of determining "the
physical fitness of every man now
registered, so that all will know
with some certainty whether they
may expect to be called for Army
duty"
AS Federal Security administra-
tor, Mr.. McNutt went to Congress
at the time dependency benefits
were first under discussion with a
request for special payments in
hardship cases, but he was turned
down.
$4,000 Cases Brought Up.
Some $4,000 cases where hardship
resulted from the wage-earner's in
duction have been brought to his
attention, however, he disclosed,
and he may feel now that he has
enough to 60 on to renew his re-
quest for funds to augment regular
payments with special allowances.
