WEATHER HAMPERS WANDERING YOUTS Homeless Boys Have Hard Time in Cold, Rain and Snow at St. Louis. ‘This is the eighth of a series of daily dispatches by a writer who traveled back and forth across the country to get the story of the thousands of homeless, wandering boys. BY DANIEL ROBERT MAUE. “We haven't gone very far yet.” Melvin Knight, 17, smiled as we sat in the half-light under the floor sills of a warehouse. He casually stated a fact that, like tke freezing rain, had been pounded into us during two hours spent along St. Louis streets 2nd in the West Side railzaad yards. Our clothing heavy with rainwater, we had taken rcfuge from the storm by crawling in among the squat pillars supporting the big frame structure. We needed breath, too, for a conference. “No southbound freights out until ‘ tonight,” two railroad employes had informed us. Before we had heard there would be a morning 9 o'clock southbound train. Texarkana, 520 miles away, on the border between + Texas and Arkansas, was our objective. i~ Now, out in the rain since daylight, i we had lost much time, were chilled ; through and had determined upon no | definite course of procedure. ! Three in Group. !} Dick Tracy, 19, made the third of | bur hitch-traveling group. He was chief master of travel. Melvin and I were ractically green to the whole practice. 0 one of us had seen the two others until the previous afternoon, when all had come together in Father Tim Dempsey's long breadline in St. Louis. Melvin had hitched a motor car away from his parental home at Ali- quippa, Pa, less than three weeks earlier. The fact that his brother on a hitch-traveling junket had not only served in & Georgia chain gang, but had returned home with frozen feet, apparenty did not discourage this newer recruit to the ranks of the wandering, bew\ul’ldered and penniess American Yyouth. Seemingly unattached, without ob- Jective, great numbers of young men and boys rove about through the 48 States. Never understood, singly or col- lectively, they form a questing move- ment of their own. I was seeking their story. Many had ridden with me in & roadster I had driven from New York to St. Louis. Now I had abandoned the roadster and would live and travel with these youths over the railroads through the Southwest and to the West coast. Dick had taken Melvin and me under his wing. _He made his own home when he could find employment. When there was no work he hitch-traveled. He crossed the continent as casually as older folk cross a county line. He never traveled far without physical suffering and when unemployed he lived smiling- 1y, uncomplainingly, through the mental agony stanch pride can give & person. Lost Mother When He Was 8. His mother had died when he was 8. A missing father was only & black mark in mind. The boy lived in Los Angeles with paternal relatives until he was 15 or until, so he says, relatives threatened - him with Juvenile Court procedure, “They rode me with complaints,” sald Dick. He had borrowed 50 cents from a fel- low golf caddy and left schooling and family behind. Four years of hap- hazard existence and_ hitch-traveling matured him quickly. But I'think they hardened only his exterior. We three held council beneath the warehouse. We decided to cross the Mississippi to the East St. Louis freight yards and inquire there for a south- bound train. We left our draughty shelter and made toward the free bridge. Again and again we paused for relief from driving ice and rain. Finally we were at the approaches. “It's hell out there!” screamed a voice through the storm. Two youths cowered in the lec of a pillar. One motioned toward the long reach of the span proper. We hurried on. The wind all but forced us against the railings, but we progressed, When we had covered haif of a long mile a man in a bright green coupe took us all into the une seat and a few minutes later set us down at the Illinois end of the bridge. We turned back under the approach and ran into the freight yards. Eight young men, none over 25, deserted a filling station where they had taken shelter and ‘came after us. Hugged Glowing Stove. A yard employe directed us toward the north switchman's shack among the Nilinois Central tracks. ‘Wanderers of various ages lined up chen” in St. Louis. Tracy, 19, of Los Angeles. D. A. R.

Dick removed shoes and socks. When | he held one of these last to the fire we laughed. It had so little foot that there was hardly telling what it was. He saw me eyeing great holes in the soles of his shoes, and looked down guiltily. He had assured me that morning his soles were sound. Fortunately, about the time our coal grew low, an’ engine shoved a load of | fuel past the door.

Should we try for a southbound at Du Po, or spend the night in the shack? Where would we £ind food? ‘Then a switchman ran in to announce departure of the cut for Du Po. We decided quickly, donned part of our garments and ran out. We obeyed the calls of the switchman to “be careful.” and finally clambered into a designted car with open door. The train gathered headway. We moved back from the draughty doors, and were cold, colder. We tried to jest. Melvin, the youth in overalls and I moved about” stamping our feet and flalling our arms.

Next we made for lights across a roadway and entered a small store. A short time later the town marshal came and led us to jail.
