Confusion Corner
To Be Eliminated

the problem is due for discus
sion next week.
Close calls, tempers and even
crumpled tenders have been
common. Mainly because of the
traffic control. North and south
bound motorists on Belvoir-
Ivanhoe must stop. East and
westbound traffic on Hillsboro
have the right Of way.
However, motorists desiring
to make a left turn from Eu-
cid north onto Ivanhoe have
been forced to do so via Hills
boro and the confusion cor
|ner."
According to Duggan the
plan is to install a traffic sig
nal at the corner.
Chief Weaver indicated also
that it may be possible that
left turns onto Ivanhoe for
eastbound Euclid traffic may
be allowed, if a delayed signal
can be worked into the picture.
Traffic in this area has in
creased because of the detour-
ing necessitated by the sewer
construction on East 152nd st.

A two-city corner of traffic
confusion could be on the way
to elimination-finally.
That's the intersection of
Belvoir and Hillsboro, half in
Cleveland half in East Cleve-
land, one block south of Euclid
and Ivanhoe.
Cleveland's 26th Ward Coun-
Gilman Larry Duggan indicated
that correcting the situation
needs cooperation from East
Cleveland.

Concern For Humanity's Growing
Needs Spurs Welfare Services

Members of the East Cleve
land Council have a far better
understanding of the general
meaning Of Welfare Services
than they had before attending
the November meeting. They
were given an insight into the
handling of cases by a panel OF
experts, as another link in the
chain of municipal services they
are touching upon this year.
Mrs. j. A. Ellington, program
chairman, submitted typica
cases. The panel through their
discussion, indicated the chan
nels through which aspects OF
the cases are handled, which
agency would probably deter
mine it and what the disposi-
tion might be.
1t was good to observe that
throughout the discussions,
wherever child was involved
directly or indirectly, the wei,
being of that child was para
mount.
Making up the panel were
Miss Alice Brannan, East
Cleveland Welfare Director;
Mrs. Ruth C. Williams, Visiting
Teacher, Board of Education;
Miss Edna Roth, Case Worker,
Family Service Association; Mr..
John Alden, Chief of Probation
Department, Juvenile Court and
Captain Robert Troyan, East
Cleveland Police Department.
The typical cases concerned
c h ldren, adolescents and
adults; conditions within the
home and outside of the home,
and many varieties of circum-
stances, financial and other
wise.
In way Of introduction, Miss
Brannan offered a few COM
ments about welfare services in
general. She reminded that as
communities have expected
more from welfare services, the
services have tended to become
more specialized. The passing
of many laws have brought
about separate agency func-
tions in areas such as adoption.
child placement, Juvenile re-
Mobilization, and financial as
sistance for the aged, the blind,
the disabled, to mention few.
Communities also expect from
welfare services more under
understanding and assistance in
cases involving mental dis
Along with these broadening
has come the need for
specialized education in the
various fields of welfare.
AS the philosophy of public
financial assistance has
changed, said Miss Brannan
East Cleveland leader. [volume] (East Cleveland, Ohio) 1942-1970, 1958-11-20

welfare workers are charged
with balancing both the right
and the responsibilities of those
e k ing g assistance, without
over-playing either aspect.
In a hypothetical "child ne
glect" complaint, the panel, in
its Investigation" searched out
conditions in the home as we'll
as the family's home living
habits and customs; it sought
out the reason for the absence
from home Of both parents at
the same time; it discussed
which agency could best serve
in the way of counselling or as
sistance of immediate needs, if
such exist.
Many questions regarding
juvenile behaviour among East
Cleveland youth were put to
Capt. Troyan. His replies indi-
Gated that as yet the city's ju-
venile cases are few percentage
wise. Complaints dealing with
minor infractions, such as run
ming over yards, are generally
taken care of on the scene and
the children sent home. More
serious violations bring the
youths into the police station
where they await their parents
who are summoned at once. In
the majority of such instances,
the offender is turned over to
the custody of the parents.
"And it is surprising how few
of these boys ever appear in
the station again" commented
the captain Still more serious
cases are booked for Juvenile |
Court.
Miss Brannan is called on in
all cases involving Juveniles,
said the Captain.
To the layman listener, the
handling of the hypothetical
cases and the involvement of so
many agencies was, probably,
at times confusing. But tying
together the general observa-
vations and conclusions offered
by panel members, made for an
evening.
