Shaw Tells Group

approximately 1000 feeble minded
youngsters below high school grad
uation age today are roaming WASH
ington streets, when they should
be in corrective institutions, the
Georgetown Citizens Association was
told last night.
G. Rowland Shaw, president Of
the privately sponsored Rehabilita-
ton Bureau here, who addressed the
association, blamed this condition
on the inadequacy of District in
stitutions.
MANY things have been said in
the past about the situation" Mr..
Shaw commented, "but until actual
financial aid Is forthcoming In
needed amounts, this number of
juveniles, and more, will continue
to go unaided."
Preparatory School" for Crime.
Mr.. Shaw also declared the i'm
stitutions for care of juvenile delin-
quents here are "some Of the most
backward in the Nation"
ANY of them is a pretty effective
preparatory school for any one who
wants to embark on a career Of
crime" he charged.
With more money, he said, rene
dial reading classes could be begun
for children who usually play truant
because of what he termed reading
disability" Additional funds would
cover expansion of teaching stats
and facilities to take care of the
youngster who cuts school because
he never learns anything, anyhow"
Mr.. Shaw pointed out.
Commencing the Junior Police
and Citizens Corps of Georgetown
as "a straight gang working against
federation of neighborhood Of
tenders" the speaker told members
that the seventh precinct itself
stands third among Washington
precincts with fine records of de-
linquency control.
Hear West on Taxes.
Earlier, the association heard Cor
poration Counsel Vernon e. West
explain the Commissioners special
tax committee recommendations to
raise an estimated $4,000 for
District maintenance in 1947.

Jenniter Martin
Reneges on a Promise

Johnny had always been a con-
scientious child. Somehow, although
he knew it was not so, he believed
the people blamed him for the fail
ure of the Park. and he held himself
responsible for the completion. Not
until that time would he be COM
pletely satisfied. For surely if he
had not arrived on the scene when
he did, the Park would have been
finished in record time. This, then,
was the old question that Johnny
mulled over in his mind and caused
him the only unhappiness in an 9TH
erwise contented existence.
Linda Martin, Johnny's mother,
had been a beautiful girl. Beautiful
and. wealthy as the only daughter
Of Jennifer Martin, owner Of two of
Lexington's sewer pipe plants and
stock controller of the three mines
in the county. Martindale, the Mar
tin estate, was situated on q hill
