Tuesday, June 5, 1951 A NEW LAW FOR BOARDI\'(- HOMES After several attempts by the Department of Pub- lic Welfare to have passed a licensing law to cover boarding homes, foster homes, nurseries and institu- tions, the 1951 Legislature passed a bill that became effective May 15 providing for supervision of all such homes that care for one or more children under 16 years of age. Though the licensing of boarding homes had been a controversial issue for many years, the licensing law passed this year had the support of many community leaders and organizations. The standards provided by the new law are de- sirable, but not elaborate. Temporary pe‘rmi\s for child care required under the law have been mailed to the homes listed with the Department of Public Welfare, but, since there were no regulations of child care homes prior to the 1951} legislation, there are homes operating in the Territory | of which the public welfare department has no record. | Henry A.

The new law provides for temporary permits to all persons or institutions already caring for children at the time the 1951 Act was passed. ¢This temporary permit was inserted in order to allow time for the Welfare Department to work -with homes in formulating regulations for their operations according to Mr. Hirmon. The temporary permits will be effective until November 15. With Mr. Harmon’s assurance that the licensing law is not designed to hamper or close any children’s homes giving good child care, cooperation of people maintaining such homes can be expected Encouragement and support will be given operator: of child care facilities, Mr. Harmon has said, and operators as well as the children cared for will benefit by the new regulations. Where there is any doubt about the regulations, Mr. Harmon has invited consultation with the Depart- ment of Public Welfa That l’.nlm(r l)e One melly™ (Ketchikan News) News dispatches recently told about the Palmer airport dealing being blasted by a Senate Subcom- mittee headed by Chairman Clyde R.
