" GUNTOTERSIND. . | TAKEN ONEBY ONE Men Rounded Up Are Put to k. Work Making Bricks F at Occoquan. One by one Washington “gun-tot- ers” are falling into the hands of the police and being given hearty recep- tions by Warden Foster at the Dis- trict’s colony of lawbreakers at Occo- quan, Va., where their services are in demand. Bricks are to be made and @ other constructive work performed, and, it is stated, the shortage of labor makes the “toters” more than they otherwise would be. i Maj. Gessford is delighted with the ! 360-day prison sentences imposed by Judges of the Police Court, believing | a continuation of such sentences will | .have the effect of reducing the num- ber of persons who are so great a | menace to society. Records of merchants, it is stated, do not show increased sales of weapons. They rather show decreases during the | past few weeks, it is stated, and a num- ( ber of dealers are exercising care and judgment in the matter of sales. Six_arrests for concealed weapons have been made in this city since March 1, according to police records, five for carrying pistols and one for carrying a razor. Reports of robberies received by the the past few weeks show that volvers and other »shooting irons,” as the police term them, have *been stolen. Many of them were stolen from homes, where owners had them for protection, while others were taken from i government stords. It is assumed by the police that most ~of the stolen weapons were wanted by the thieves to seil, although they real- i ize that some of them are being carried by undesirables. —_— - AID TO LIBERIA URGED.

Call Upon Associated Charities. Tn our own work we are dealing h the bables and the pre-school child, not from the standpoint of re” lief, but from that of health. We en- courage any and every mother who needs instruction in the care of her baby or advice before the baby comes to visit our welfare stations, where the professional service of both doc- tor and nurse is given free of charge. We recognize, however, that if the teachings of our doctors and nurses are to be carried out home conditions must be favorable. If the mother is worried because of domestic trouble which only the gencral family welfare worker can straighten out, then we call upon the Associated Charities for their co-operation. In such instances their wide experience in mending homes broken by poverty and distress makes their service absoluteiy essen- tinl to the successful working out of our own child welfare problems wit! in the family. “When the problem is one of finan cial assistance the Associated Chari- ties stands equally ready to help. The inability to provide a quart or two of good milk for the baby is almost a sure indication of trouble more seri- ous than the lack of the few cents that the milk would cost. If the par- ents, for éxample, cannot meet th obligation in the child’s infancy, w will they do when the diet becom 1 more diversified and costly and other children come along? Is each new baby that comes to be taken care of by charity or is the obligation of car- ing for their own to be pressed home upon them? If the young husband is unable or unwilling to do his part he must be shown the seriousness of the situation. This is not the problem of the doctor and nurse, but that of the family social worker. It is important that the good will of the mother to- ward the doctor and nurse be re- tained. . It is important that our child welfare station be looked upon not as a relief agency, but it is cqually im- portant that some one should under- take the task of helping the family out of its financlal troubles and of starting it on the road toward self- help and independence. “This always found the Associated Charities ready to undertake at our request. It is a difficult task and one that re- quires patience, tact and a high de- gree of training. It is a different picce of work from that fér which the nurse has fitted herself. Social Service Exchange. “In this same connection let me say that one of the most uscful means of co-operation is the social service ex- change conducted by the Associated Charities. device, which is nothing more nor less than a card directory of families 'BATES STREET SHIRTS STANDARD OF QUALITY ~ SINCE 1870 PETWORTH $1,000 Cash BALANCE MONTHLY Eight rooms, tiled bath, hot-water heat, electric light, large yard, large sleeping porch. 4106 Third St. N.w, D.
