u. ). Urged 10 Assume
Entire Cost Of Zoo

The Stanton Park Citizens Asso-
citation last night urged Congress to
pass legislation whereby the Federal
Government would be held respon-
sible for the entire upkeep of the
National Geological Park.
Harry N: Stull, who introduced the
motion, said that maintenance of
the park district and responsibility
for the Zoo belonged no more to
the District than did the upkeep
Of the numerous national monu-
ments and Government buildings in
the city. Furthermore, he said, ap-
proximately three-fourths of the
automobiles seen in the park bear
State license tags, not those of the
District.
Under these circumstances, 1t is
unfair" he said, Ito make citizens
OF this city pay even half of the
upkeep OF this institution as is rec
commended in the bill proposed by
Representative Coffee, Democrat. of
Washington"

Council Tells How Boy
Regains Se|f-Respect
with Foster Parents

The story of a 13-year-old boy who
was headed for trouble" and how
that trouble was averted was told
today by the Council OF Social
Agencies In its campaign to curb
juvenile delinquency by finding
proper homes for more than 400
children.
Jerry was left with his maternal
grandparents after the death of his
mother. These relatives had al
ways disliked the boys father and
after his remarriage they became
even more critical Every time Jerry
did something wrong, he was told
he was "just like his father"
After Jerry was expelled from
school, new home was found for
him. His foster parents believed in
him. He was no longer "just like
his father" when he made a mis-
take. He made friends with other
boys in the home and with his foster
father. -..-
Jerry has changed in the last
year, both in his personal appear
ance and his ability to get along at
school. His foster parents, said

the report, are proud Of him and Of
the real contribution they have
made 1T the turning point in his
life"
Jerry has been helped, but hun
dreds Of other Washington children
are in need of new homes, either as
a full-time boarding home or as a
place where they can stay IN the
daytime while their parents work.
There Is, for instance. the case of
two brothers. aged 8, and their s.
year-old sister. Their mother de-
serted them several months ago and
their father has been drinking
steadily since. They need new
home until their father can read
just his life.
Foster parents are paid board to
cover the children's essential needs,
including food, clothing and medical
care. Since the children's parent or
parents are alive in many cases,
they cannot be adopted.
Those able to provide a new fam
lily life or day care for these chill
dren were asked to get in touch with
