TRIBBY, Jr. €15 15th St. N.W. the family in need they give the benefit of the counsel of many minds who serve as an impartial tribunal to learn the facts and to seek in am earnest, sympathetic spirit practical remedies. To the community. the conference is an evidence that ‘some- body cares’ and is willing to devote time and strength to help familics in distress out of their troubles. Mending Broken Homes. “The chief object of the Associated Charities, as we see it from contact with its work in these weekly con- ferences, is to keep families together, or, to put it in another way, ‘to mend broken homes.’ For the families that come to the attention of the society are those in which for one reason or_another, such as illness, neglect, old age. desertion of wage earner. the home is threatened with collapse. “At these conferences the profes- sional worker is obliged to justify to those who sit in judgment the fair- ness, completeness and the adequacy of plans made for the restoration of a particular home. Questions are asked. The thoroughness of the worker’s acquaintance with the fam- fly is tested by those present. The name of the articular family is with- held, but the factors entering into the situation are all called for in the study and preparation of a working plan. The family's budget is worked out, ftem by item. An attempt is made to learn the family’s standards when at the peak of its prosperity. It these standards are found to be sane and wholesome they become guides by which the plans of re- habilitation are shaped. Questions Considered. “In these conferences principles of social action _are constantly being |worked out. Policies are formulated based upon a wide experience in so- \clal treatment and the multiplication of social facts. Such questions. for example, are considered as: “What evidence is necessary regarding a ‘mother's neglect or incompetence be- fore there is justification for suggest- ing that the children be taken away? personal treatment before conditions| can be improved. The ultimate pur- pose of these conferences, like the real purpose of the social worker, is, to use the words of Benjamin Frank- lin, ‘to help persons not so much in their poverty as out of their pov- erty.’” ENGINEERS WANT NOLAN BILL PASSED Organized engineers of the country,| under the leadership of the American Engineering Herbert C. Hoover is president, will to have the Nolan bill to increase t personnel and salarics in the patent of- fice passed at the extra session of Con- | gress.
