William 11. De Lacy, who served as juvenile court judge ppointment of President Roosevelt. was the prin- cipal witness at the hearing on the Zihlman and Underhill juvenile court measures. Broadly speaking, en- larged jurisdiction for the juvenile court is sought. Judge De Lacy recommended that the committee postpone its heariogs in view of the fact thut the District Commissioners are reconsidering the bill which was introduced at their re- quest. and have asked that the House committee defer action until the Com missioners have made recommenda tions. trict Judge: who would = SCHOOL ORATORS FOLLOW SCHEDULE {Eastern High Contest En- trants Prepare Their Pres- entations for Meet.

Mrs. Tu nberg, ' representing the Monday Lvening Club in this re There was rge attendar caucus room of the House Offic: ing for the Juvenile Court hearing, including a personal representative of Archbishop Curley and a group of prominent Washington attorneys who are to appear for the Catholic chari- ties. The hearings will be resumed. sub- ject to the call of Chairman McLeod not earlier than Friday of next week. ; Judge De Lacy advocated that the Supreme Court of the District should have jurisdiction over juvenile cases because the judges on that bench are men of the highest training and ex- perience, better fitted as teachers and for the most part with scientific knowledge. le argued that the child should have the highest type of justice and said that the right of the child nd its proper care during the tender years should be above all the gold in the Treasury. tment, Hammer Offers Change. phzdIese | Reading Representative Hammer, Democrat, | North Caroli agreed that the child should come under the highest type of judicial protection and guidance, hut that it should be through special selec- tion of men to serve as judges of the Juvenile Court and should not be al- lowed to hamper the Supreme Court in administration of justice in impor- tant criminal cases. Judge De Lacy told the committee that it is the “greatest mistake in this country that we pay too little atten- tion to the character of jurists who go on the bench in courts of the first in- stance,” and that is largely why the dockets of the higher courts are con- gested Representative Blanton. Democrat of Texas argued that the jud r' committee, which now 5 sev bills regarding the District Juvenile | Court before it, ought to consider also the Zihiman and Underhill bills. Mr. Blanton, who had not been prt ent when Judge De Lacy made his recommendations, of his own initiative spoke in favor of putting juvenile cases under the Supreme Court, Urges Parole Law. Judge De Lacy also advocated a parole law in the District, carrying out the recommendations of the Penal Commission, appointed in 1908, which was responsible for the establishment of the reformatory at Lorton and the workhouse at Occoguan. Chairman McLeod spoke in favor of increasing the age for offenders under Juvenile Court from 17 to 20 vears. Judge De Lacy explained that there is not enough differentiation and that an adolescent court for those above 14 years might well be estab- lished in order to determine whether education might not take the place of corrective measure, and insisted that the essential need is for the highest type of teachers. Both Judge De Lacy and Mr. Blan- ton spoke in faver of District suf- frage, allowing the people to elect Commissioners, judges, school board and send up measures, approved by a common council, to be acted upon by Congress. Mrs. Ottenberg, when she was ex- plaining the Zihlman bill, was inter- rupted by Mr. Houston and Mr. Blan- ton, who vigorously stated that they are opposed to the Juvenile Court having jurisdiction in capital offenses. ‘When the rd “voteless” was used in connection with the title of one of these organizations, Mr. Blanton put into the record a statement that about 0 per cent of the people in Washing- Miss Kate D.
