STUDY OB AR | 0FCHLD WELFARE Council of Social Agencies to Ask Dr. Hodson to Make Survey. A study of child-welfare conditions fn the District is to be undertaken by Dr. W. W. Hodson of the Russell Sage Foundation, who will be invited to make the study here. Resolutions in favor of such a survey were adcpt- ed by the Council of Social Agencies at a meeting held at the Raleigh Hotel yesterday afternoon. It was pointed out that the study would be entirely in the nature of a survey, rather than an “investiga- tion.” and would be in the nature of e help to the newly created board of children’s guardians. Dr. Hodson, it was stated, is an international au- thority upon such work, and the Dis- trict would be fortunate to get his help in the matter. The council adopted resolutions ap- proving the stand of the District Commissioners in relation to the board of children’s guardians, asking that normal children be ther than in placed in institutions. announced 1 a polic Mra. Cross Reviews Work. Recommending the survey of chil-! dren’s work, Mrs. Whitman Cross, chairman of the chil committee of the council, reviewed the work being done here for defective, pendent, delinquent and iliegitimate | children. Mrs. Cross stated that re- | cent visits by her to homes where children were placed showed them to be “good average American homes” where the ndard of living was comparatively high. She said that it had been fc 1d that there were 300 empty beds in the sixteen orphan asylums here. In all phases of social work for children, she said, the coun- il should see to it that the proper standards are maintained. Mrs. Cross declared that with proper mothers’ allowances, many children which now have to be “farmed out” could be kept with their mothers, and would thus be kept under the home | influence, rather than be under in- | stitutional care | Create Finance Committee. The council authorized the creation of a finance committee, in co-opera- tion with Corcoran Thom. chairi of the advisory council, which i operating with the Council of Agencies.
