Voice Os The i\.ODi*TO THE CITIZENS ot ST. JOSEPH COINTY The letter the attorneys received from the Honorable Richard D >vle and publicity regarding out court® prompts me to write th s letter. It i- gratifying we have representatives in'erested in our courts. Repre entative D »yle mentioned the po-Sibil ty of a domestic relations court. Years ago. i, a State Senator. I apansored a bill to create such a court which was p.ts-ed in the Senate. However, due to opposition received from our county th< bill was killed n the House. Prior to my tenure in the Ap. pll ( te Court I sorved a? Judge of the Juvenile Court. I tried to there to a domestic rclat ons court in which our juvenile department was helpful in making pr >per finding n the ntre t of th children. For we fully recognized there is nothing more t • a parent than i ’s child. As Judge of the Juvenile Court, juven le hearings were hell in th- detention home away fr m expo ure to adults a -i with detention and phychiatri facilities prevent ve ’nd r•habilitative programs t‘gather with Youth Councils we achieved the lowest delinquency rate in the state and nation. I mu.-t admit that this was after I attended many seminars jin our country and abroad. I was delegate to the Interna t!o---nal Juvenile Court Judges Congtes?, the reo pient of Juvenile Certificate of Awards from the Juvenile Court Institute. al o. upon invitation of the late Dag Hummarskjold I participated in the Firit United Nations Conference on Crime and Delinqu?ncy. Throughout this entire study I have learned that the philosophy of the juven le court is to help the child, not punish him and we must get to the child before the child gets to the court. From that kn >wledg ■ I wrote several papers Therapy in the Juvenile Court and Delinquency: There is an Answer, which was published in the Amei m Bar Jourml ard Journal and otht r publication-. Aga n I strongly uige we est blith such an institution and p. -gram in our community. I am convinced that it would, not only, prevent the frac use, we have -n our high schools I -it our streets will be safe and the juvenile crime curbed.
