Private Hearings tor All Juvenile Delinquents Promise of Robert Fulton, Candidate for Judge of Court, Former Pastor .

reclarfnjr that he will. If eleet2, appoint a woman referee to hear all girls' casea involving Immorality and that be will hold private trials for children, Robert Fulton, candidate for the Republican nomination for Judge of the Juvenile Court, today Issued a statement outlining his platform. Mr. Fulton be•es a nineteen-year-old statute should Invoked whereby all curiosity seekers may be excluded from the room and that every effort should be made to win the confidence and friendship of the children who come before the judge. Mr. Fulton formerly was pastor of the Fourth Presbyterian Church and has deToted much time to Juvenile work, both in Marion County and in other States. He left the ministry several years ago to take up the practice of lrw. MUCH MONET SPENT FOR THE PAID WORKERS. Mr. Fulton's statement follows: “The Juvenile Court Is In many ways, one of the most Important In the country. More money is spent upon this than any other, and no other county court has such a large number of paid workers. About two thousand cases a year are tried In the Juvenile Court, by far the largest number tried In any court in the county. Almost £50,000 a year Is collected and disbursed to needy families. The Juvenile Court is held In a large room in \he basement of the courthouse and is reached through a long, gloomy corridoA more disagreeable and unattractive thata the courtroom Itself. The quarters occupied by this court are such as no other Judge In the county would tolerate and there is a general sentiment that the court should be moved. Surroundings that are unfit for adults, surely are not fit for children- " There are striking differences between the old fashioned Juvenile Court and the fodern and many of our cities have entirely given up the old forms and procedure and are operating upon altogether modern lines, greatly to the pleasure and satisfaction of all concerned. The modern Juvenile Court seeks •avoid even the appearance of a proseion, and a legal trial, aud its chief *pose Is to win the child's confidence and convince him that the court Is bU friend and seeks only his welfare. The Idea of punishment Is entirely secondary and the great purpose Is to learn why the child committed the offense and how to prevent his repeating It In the future. The very appearance of the old style courtroom has passed In the cities that have been wide awake to social reform. Our statutes make specific provislops which enables us to have a modern court room: All trials of such children as are affected by this act shall be held In chambers, or In the Juvenile courtroom. A judge who cares to take advantage of this provision will at once be enabled to leave the old courtroom and move Into some smaller aud more suitable quarters. The noted Juvenile Court in Washington, D. C., presided over by a woman judge. Is held in a building entirely removed from the courthouse. PUBLIC TRIALS NO LONGER COIBT RULE. "Public trials of children. In which girls as well as boys, have been exposed to a roomful of curiosity seekers and gossip mongers have entirely passed. Sven the terms used in criminal courts are not applied In children’s cases. No unnecessary shame or humiliation Is placed upon the child, he Is shielded so far as possible from all that frightens and intimidates him. The child, after telling his story, leaves the room, the witnesses are brought in, one by one, and each is excused when bis testimony Is given, so that no one, not concerned, knows who testified or what testimony was given. In this kindly and sensible way, all gossip and scandal are banished und the court can act for the benefit or ihe child without exposing him or his Bamlly to unnecessary humiliation. statutes contain another wise pro which has not be*-n taken advanof In the nineteen years since this became a law. The judge of such is hereby empowered to exclude Mom the courtroom at such trials any Kid all persons that. In his opinion, are ■lot necessary to the trial of the case, fin the light of this authority no judge lls Wtlfied In exposing a boy or girl to 11) lhumlllatlon, embarrassment and lot a public trial. Those who Yr. this law deserve a debt of gratitude for arming the court with this farreaching authority. If I am elected I shall take advantage of these provisions of onr statutes, shall hold the court in chambers' and shall exclode from the room all those not necessary to the trial of the case. I shall, however, welcome any Information or assistance which an Interested party can give and shall gladly cooperate with all agencies for child welfare. “Another and equally wise and humane practice of the modern Juvenile Court Is exercised In cases where g'rls have been charged with immoral conduct. Not only is it unpardonable that such a girl should be exposed to the curiosity of the common courtroom, but in the better organized courts or our country these cases are heard by a woman referee, who patieutlv and kindly gathers all the factß and circumstances surrounding the girl and the girl’s offense and then submits the results to the court for his approval. This is not only a merciful thing, but It is evident that the right kind of woman will be able to do this work much better than a man. My promise to the mothers of Marlon Connty is that if I am elected, this reform will be instituted in our Juvenile Court and girls’ cases, Involving Immorality, will be heard by a woman referee. "One of the reasons that has operated to decrease respect for our Juvenile

Coairt Is the method that has bem used In the trials of adult defendants. It la felt, by many lawyers and by members of those who have been tried In this court, that the burden has been placed upon the defendant to prove hls Innocence, that the gossip and scandal of a neighborhood have been used against him and that not Infrequently the attorney has been denied the right of cross-exami-nation. Our statutes provide that when a defendant Is tried In the Juvenile Court for contributing to deliquency, 'such trial shall be conducted by the prosecuting attorney In accordance with the rules and procedure under which such trials are conducted in the Criminal Court.’ ‘And, provided, that auy person charged with violating any o fthe provisions of this act shall be entitled to a trial by a iury of twelve persons if he shall so elect. "Take It for all in all. neither lawyers nor defendants, as a rule, either ask or expect more than fairness and justice. Under this act It is absolutely necessary that a defendant so tried shall have that first great protection of criminal law, the presumption that he Is lnnocei.i, until he has been prove guilty beyond a reasonable doubt. The irden must be upon the State to prove the defendants' guilt, not upon the defendant to prove hls Innocence. The second great protection which this statute throws about the defendant is the exclusion of hearsay evidence. It Is contrary to our Idea of law and Justice, to deny a defendant the right of facing his accusers. The third protection given by this statute is the right of cross-examination: that the accused may show bigs or prejudice on the part of hls accusers. A Judge who violates this statute Is In the same clasa with the defendant whom ha tries for violating a stgrute. If I am elected I shall stand squarely upon this law and shall try all adult defendants as the law provides and shall give not merely the penalty of the law, but also Its protection.

How to Make Grape Jelly From Bottled Grape Juice Inexpensive and Takes Only Ten Minutes By Ann Proctor

Ton can make the finest grape Jelly you over tasted. In ten minutes, from bottled grape juice at a cost of only T or 8 cents for a big six-ounce glass.

This Is the way to make It: Measure out 4 cups (1 qt. bottle) of grape Juice and level cups t.3%4 lbs.) of sugar Into large sauce pan, stir and bring to boll Add at once 1 bottle (scant cupV of CERTO, stirring constantly and bring to b&rd boll for one minute. Remove from fire, skim and pour into glasses at once. This makes 15 alx-ounce glasses of ths very finest grape Jelly for only 7 or 8 cents a glass and It's so easy even a child can do it. CERTO Is pure concentrated fruit pectin (Mother Nature's Jell Maker) the use of which Is so highly endorsed by government authorities and cooking experts and Is obtainable from most any grocer or druggist.

taken advantage of by Marlon County, although It has been used with fins success In from twenty to thirty other counties and has proved of far reaching benefit to the families that have been given advantage of It This Is generally known aa the mothers’ pension law, or more properly as the child welfare law. This law has come to have a Nation-wide Interest since the passage of the first of these laws ten years ago, and forty of our States have now passed this law for the benefit of mothers and their needy children. The object of this law is to provide support for dependent children without putting them Into Institutions. These laws are made to include the children of widows, deserted mothers, wives whose husbands have become Incapacitated mentally or physically, or whose husbands have been committed to public Institutions. In the Middle West and West, this law is administered through the Juvenile court, in some of the Eastern States by State boards and in other States by county, town or etty boards. “Under our law the Juvenile court gives dependent children into the custody of the Board of Children's Guardians. This board may then place the child with lis mother and pay to her for Its support not to exeeed 73 cents a day. The object of this law is to prevent the family breakdown which would otherwise occn If children should be taken from the home. This law docs not apply to delinquent children or those whose parents are unfit to care for them, but Is made for the benefit of dependent children who have fit parents and fit homes In which to live, but who, on account of poverty, must be given to public care. The object of this law Is to keep together In wholesome, home surrouudings these families that poverty alone Is about to destroy. This law should include every fit parent. Mothers' pension law and child welfare laws are correct in prln-

"No parent should ever be deprived by the courts of the custody of hls children merely because of poverty. Tho State has an Interest In the preservation of the family ties as well as In the physical and mental welfare of children. The many charitable societies, doing such fine work for children, are to be admired and supported, but this fixed, constant and inexhaustible aid provided by the State should not bo neglected.
