By the Aseociated Press. ATLANTA, Ga. April 23.—The Seahoard Air Line Railway will be- gin almost immediately to obtain rights of way for two trunk lines which will connect with west Flc ida and_Alabama Gulf ports, Davies Warfield, president of the road, told the ‘Associated Press here today. Three surveying parties already n the fleld laying out rights of Mr. Warfield said, and as soon heir work is completed steps will bhe taken to complete the projects. While, he indicated, some trackage would be leased, a portion of the route will be constructed. Warfield declined to say what were under consideration, de- g it was too early to make an announcement . however, that the new lines would connect with Atlanta and Birmingham, giving a ‘new short route. The new lines, he said, would cross the State of Georgia diagonally in two directions and would swing down the west coast of Florida. HGHERIVENLE COURT IS URGED Judge De Lacy Would Make Children’s Bench Part of Superior System. William H. De Lacy, formerly judge of the Juvenile Court for more tha seven years by appointment of Pre: dent Roosevelt, was the principal wit. ness toddy before a subcommittee of the House judiciary committee, urg- ing passage of a bill introduced by Chairman Zihlman of the District committee for creation of a children's court as a branch of a superior court of the District. Judge De Lacy laid before the com- mittee a comparison of the present law and the new one. He said that the purpose of making a children’s court a branch of a superior court was to re that the very highest type of acher may be placed at the service of the children, their parents and their homes in pursuit of the objects aimed at by the Juvenile Court move- ment. He explained that this is for the saving of the child offender and to guard citizenship by treatment that will develop him into a spcial rather than anti-social member 6f the com- munity. Would Fit Existing System. He argued that, being a court of superior jurisdiction, it would fit into the existing judicial system, modified {by it as well as modifying it in the | interests of the children, so that ques- Philadelphia they i tions affecting its jurisdiction would be minimized. Judge De Lacy further explained that the bill empowers the court to deal efficiently with the real unit in the community—the family. He sald that it safeguards the right of the in- dividual under the criminal law, but in the interest of the child offender, and accords him that fatherly care of an_equitable tribunal. Judge De Lacy explained also that the present court is of a type that can be used as a vent for neighborhood spite, whereas such matters would never be brought before a court of the dignity of the District Supreme Court. Women Back Plan. Blanche Winter and Mrs, red the proposed court as correcting an evil | esent juvenile court, which say is caused by groups of highly ocial workers, “mostly old children’ in the y ubcommittee was requested by Winter to allow a further hear- > that she could present some mothers to testify and also two law- 5 presentatives of the District of Co- mbia Congress of Parent-Teacher A ciations also asked for further hear- in opposition to the bill and to an- swer some of the statements made by Irs.
