Help Sought As Family Is Stranded
The solution to a tragedy of poverty was weighed heavily today in the mind of Juvenile Court Judge Wilfred Bradshaw. What to do with middle-
aged parents and their daughter of 10 and a son of 6, without food or shelter was his problem. For weeks, the father told the judge, they have been roaming the Midwest. Welfare agencies at each stop have been giving them temporary care. The case came before the judge after police had taken the children into custody when they found them begging in taverns. “I'm stumped,” Judge Bradshaw said. “I won't send them on to become the liability of some other community until I've exhausted every means of taking care of them here.”
