dren which it apprehends: in
doing so 1t necessarily acquires
some information and i general
impression about the background
of each child. The complaint
sent to the Juvenile Court. how
ever. contains q mere two or
three sentence description Of
the offense.
"The Department of Social
Work of the Juvenile Court then
undertakes a social history OF
the child without consulting the
police officers who have dealt
with the child and his family.
"Such consultation would prob
ably not be useful in every case
but the committee believes that
an atmosphere of liaison between
the two agencies would be of
value in enough gases to war
rant the effort Of bringing it
about.
THE committee believes that
individual social workers should
be urged to communicate with
the Juvenile Squad officer in any
case in which it seems likely that
the officers knowledge would be
useful. Individual officers Of the
squad should in turn be urged
to indicate to the Department
of Social Work of the Juvenile
Court those cases in which they
feel they can be helpful"

Court make generally available
to the Juvenile Squad inforna-
ton as to the disposition Of Ju-
venile Court cases. In order to
protect the confidential nature
Of this information, 1t should be
rigidly confined to the Juvenile
Squad. The dangers Of q breach
Of confidence would be vastly in-
creased If the information were
available to all 1000 members Of
the force"
Meeting in advance any OBJ
lection that giving the police
this information would require
additional labor by the court, the
committee noted that Juvenile
Squad officers visit the court
daily and could pick up the in
formation from the clerks Office
without great Inconvenience to
either police or the court.
The committee also recon-
mended that the Welfare De-
partment and the National
Training School for Boys notify
the Juvenile Squad when delin-
quent children are released, pro-
vided that the Juvenile Squad
also keep this information con-
fidential. Emphasizing the i'm
portance of restricted use of the
information it proposes should
be made available to the Juve-
nile Squad. the committee stated:
1T is not the. purpose of the
plan to enable the Juvenile
Squad when working on a bicycle
theft to question every child
ever apprehended for a bicycle
theft. It is to be used only to
locate child who has demon
strated a distinctive pattern in
the commission of his offenses
and only to solve a crime evi-
dencing that particular pattern.

Juvenile Squad Wants
Assistance Of Court

The committee then discussed
the Juvenile Squads present
practice of dismissing with a
warming the children who have
committed only minor offenses.
The report went on:
'The Juvenile Squad believes
correctly, in the opinion. Of the
committee that it is pointless
to file q complaint against an
eight-year-old boy who has been
caught stealing a candy bar.
However. the squad has serious
doubts as to the propriety Of its
independent hearing procedure.
In these cases, the Juvenile
SQUAD desires and deserves as
sistance from the Juvenile Court.
The committee proposed that
a court social worker be ap-
pointed to review daily with the
Juvenile Squad all offenses COM
ing to its attention. The COM
mittee continued:
"The Juvenile Court repre-
sentative would be authorized to
approve dismissal with warning
or other disposition by the po-
lice. In cases where he had rea-
son to believe that the child in
volved should come to the at
tention of the court. the court
representative could request that
a complaint be filed with the
court.
THE Juvenile Squad would
still participate in sitting the
minor offender from the chill
dren needing rehabilitation, but
the experience of the Depart
ment Of Social Work of the Ju-
venile Court would also con-
tribute to the decision. More
over, the participation of a rep
resentative Of the Juvenile Court
would, in the opinion Of the
committee. add the desired Of
fetal sanction to these proce-
dures.
Close liaison between the
Juvenile Squad and the court
would also improve the inde-
pendent ability Of the squad
officers (who have no special
training in work with children,
to separate the child whose be-
havior calls for the attention
Of the Juvenile Court from the
child whose behavior Is merely
mischievious and who needs onls
a warning from the police
Furthermore. when an officer
of the Juvenile Squad possesses
helpful information on specific
children as to whom complaints
have been filed. the proposed
court representative will be oble
to see that contact is established
between the officer and the ap-.
propriate social workers"

finger on what he considered the
contradiction involved in police
and court policy.
It doesn't make sense, he told
the Senate Juvenile Delinquency
subcommittee. for police to
spread the names of juveniles
over its public arrest books and
for the court to make a secret
of what happens to these juve-
niles. Even when a youth is alb
solved by the court. he pointed
out, the fact is not noted any
where in police records.
For the sake of consistency
and common sense. he argued,
the names of juveniles should be
concealed by police as we'll as
the court. or the records of the
court should be opened along
with those Of police.
Murray's Position.
Police Chief Robert v. Murray
has repeatedly stated his posi-
tion. He wants police to get the
disposition of every case in
Juvenile Court as q tool in law
enforcement.
Juvenile Court Judge Edith H.
Cockrill has said she would be
willing to pass personally on in
dividual requests for informa-
ton from police and. If there
were a showing that the informa-
ton was needed. she would con-
slider supplying it.
Unwilling to waste time watt
ing for the busy judge to come
of the bench, reluctant to
awaken her late at night when
q crime Is committed, police
have made no use of this limited
offer of cooperation.
Another aspect Of police re-.
lations with Juvenile Court was
brought out at the hearings.
Capt. Ryan testified that the
man on the beat, or the Juvenile
Squad member, gets to know
the background of children who
come in conflict with the law
facts "a social worker doesn't
know sitting at an Office desk"
Yet, he said, court workers never
ask polio for this kind of in
formation - they don't think
police have anything to Offer.
These examples Of lack of CO.
operation between the police and
Juvenile Court seriously con-
cerned the juvenile committee
of the Council on Law Enforce
ment. After studying 100 typi-
cal cases and interviewing all
the affected officials, the COM
mittee concluded these barriers
to cooperation are harmful both
to the children and the commu-
nifty.
Plan for Exchange.
The committee proposed ar
rangementS for the exchange Of
information that would maintain
the confidential nature Of the
court records. while giving the
Juvenile Squad free access to
information. Under this pro-
posal, juveniles would no longer
be booked by police on precinct
records, and the Juvenile Squad,
the only point Of booking would
keep its records confidential.
Once this was guaranteed. the
committee proposed. the court
should make available to the Ju-
venile Squad information on the
disposition of all court cases.
This court information would be
"rigidly confined" to the Juvenile
Squad.
The committee also proposed
another form of close co-opera-
ton. A court worker, on the one
hand. would advise with the Ju-
venile Squad daily on whether
cases should go to the court or
be disposed of by police with a
warning. On the other hand.
police would offer the court
whatever information they might
have on the background of the
child.

Cabinet
Daughter
Presented
By Potrieio Simmons

Protocol reared its contro-
versial head last night at the
first debut party staged here
for a cabinet daughter in over
a decade.
The lady in question, Miss
Joan Brownell, was having too
much fun at her gala dance at
the Anderson House to think
twice about protocol.
The big question: whether
Attorney General Brownen was
to stand first or second in the
receiving line, was settled by
putting the cabinet officer at
the head Of the handshakers.
Most likely, as the father OF a
debutante, he would have
stood second in line. after his
wife. But as Attorney General,
he outranked Mrs. Brownen.
Regardless Of rank. social
arbiter Carolyn Hagner Shaw
prefers the traditional hne-up,
with the deb's mother first.
But it's not wrong the other
way, she hedges.
Besides being one Of the
best parties of the deb season.

as the first cabinet debut since

night, the parade Of official

which she helped design, Joan
outdid any and every portrait
on the wall. The dress called

feta, fashioned with a square
embroidered neckline.
The deb carried pink rose
buds sent by President and
Mrs. Eisenhower.

smiled the Attorney General.
He was referring, Of course,
to a pretty young lady in
pastel green-the deb's sister
Ann who's just 16.
For her dress, Mrs. Brownell
chose red Italian silk.
Rivers Chambers music kept
the young set dancing into
the wee hours.
Those who came with con-
gratulations earlier in the
evening included friends of the
deb's parents, such as Justice
and Mrs. Stanley Reed, JUS
