Miss Mary Stewart Assistant to director general of United States employment service, junior department, who will address the Salt Lake branch of the National Federation of Business and Professional Women at a dinner given in her honor at the Newhouse hotel tonight. TYRANNY OF TOIL JUVENILE PERIL U. S. Employment Service Official Tells of What Is Being Done for Youth. Intelligent guidance of adolescent youth I of our population who are no longer com- I pelled to attend school by law and who I are seeking employment either from de- I sire or economic necessity, is the ulti- I mate aim of the junior department of the I federal employment bureau of the United States. Miss Mary Stewart, assistant to I the director general of this branch of the government service, made this statement and) then proceeded to explain the im- portance of this work as a factor in build- ins up true American citizenship. Miss Stewart is a guest at the Hotel Utah and is here to confer with L. M. Gilliian, head of the part time school, I which is cooperating with the federal government in the work of vocational educa­tion and industrial placement of boys and girls past the compulsory school age. Miss Stewart is also chairman of the legislative committee of the National Fed­eration of Business and Professional Women and has acted as the representa- I live of this organisation at the joint leg- I islative committee, a body composed of I delegates from all the leading women's I clubs and associations of the United States. I "Statistics show that more than half of I the young people of this country who are Ipast the compulsory school age have for leconomic or other reasons left school and lar out looking for work. The fate of I the average young person of this class is la drifting from one 'blind alley' job to . I another. Years of servitude get for them I no constructive training in a life profes- I sicn. The object of the junior department I of the federal employment bureau is to I assist and advise these juvenile job seek- I pis so that they may be placed in work I for which they have a natural aptitude, or I it that is impossible arrange for outside I training in leisure hours, which will in- I sure them better and more congenial I li'ork in the future. I "Educators all over the countrv are waking up to the truth that the old sys­tem of making the pupil fit tne scnooi must pass; the slogan today is, 'make the public school fit the common lot,' " said Miss Stewart. "in the past our school system has provided education for the privileged class, those pupils who be­cause of fortunate environment were able to pursue the courses in higher educa­tion offered by the system. The chil­dren less fortunately situated naturallv drifted out of school and entered on their life careers with but very little pracr­itical preparation. If a boy wanted to be [a cobbler or a sign painter, he of course could not learn those or any of the hum- j bier trades in the public schools. With- j out means and generally forced by cir­cumstances to provide his share of the - familv budget, the youthful job seeker generally took the first position offered and in most cases never rose higher in S the industrial world. I "The surface of this work has barcUv been scratched," Miss Stewart said; "it offers such a vast and as yet unbroken 1 field for endeavor and the results which I mav be achieved are splendid. in my opinion this is real Americanization work, I the intelligent placing of this youthful I generation in congenial work or putting at I their disposal the mean-; for fitting themselves for future work which will B make them efficient units in the indus- § trial system ot America. I "Surely there can be no broad democ- racy such as is the desire of all loyal Americans, unlets there is public provision I for the intelligent vocational education of the youth of the land and to obtain this, there must be active cooperation- K between schools and government employ - ment agents." Members of the Salt Lake Business and Professional Women's club will enter- tain Miss Stewart at a dinner given at I the Newhouse hotel tonight at 6:30 o'cjock. LEVY APPROVED FOR WEBER HIGH 1926 Taxpayers of County In­dorse Proposed $300,000 for Building Plans. OGDEN, March 2.-Taxpayers of Weber county today voted a special tax levy to raise $300,000 for the pur­pose of building a county high school by a majority of 263 votes. This was the third attempt, two previous bond elections having been rejected. Interest was keen and a record vote of 1213 for a school finance election was cast. The victory was won, according to F. W. Stratford, president of the school board, despite organized oppo­sition in some quarters because the taxpayers saw the urgent need of a high school. The next step of the Weber county board of education will likely be taken tomorrow when the board meets 1 discuss the perfection of plans for tl school and the purchase of a site ar advertising for bids.

A test case on compelling children between the ages of 16 and 18 years to attend school is before Judge Fred R. Morgan of the juvenile court In a new form. Recent proponents of the enforcement of the compulsory school attendance law received a jolt in a decision of Judge Chris Mathison which stipulated that parents who re­fuse to send to school children be­tween the ages of 16 and 18 are not contributing to their delinquency. In the case before Judge Morgan, Amos and "Jane Doe" McMaster are charged in the present case with vio­lating section 1, chapter 92, session laws of 1919, as amended by chapter 107, session laws of 1921, in that they, having control of Florence McMaster, aged 16, have refused to send her to school, not having been excused from such duty by the district board of education amd the Granite school dis­trict. Miss McMaster is declared to be the granddaughter of former Judge Alex­ander McMaster of the juvenile court. Her mother wrote to the principal of the Madison school on South State street: "The school age of children ranges from 8 to 16. That is, the law required children to attend school until 16 years of age. Florence is past that age, and the school work she was getting would not help her in other courses she contemplates." Judge Morgan said he has repeat­edly requested the McMaster parents to come into court and they have re­fused. According to Judge Morgan she has declared her child was sick, but he hits advices from Dr. S. G. Paul that there is no physical reason why she should not attend. EACH OF FIVE DISTRICTS NOW IS ORGANIZED Deseret News - March 29-25 New Policy Comprehends Giving More Time to More Serious Offenses - Appropriations Cut. Organization of the state juvenile courts under the new administration was completed this morning with the appointment of the remaining judges and court officers in the five districts of the state at a meeting of the com­mission in the state Capitol this morn­ing. Upon recommendation of the newly appointed judge, A. N. Malan of Ogden ; was appointed chief probation officer for the Second district, comprising We­ber, Davis and Morgan counties. Ar­thur O. Neilson of Mt. Pleasant was ap­pointed judge and probation officer to succeed himself in the Fifth district comprising Sanpete and Sevier coun­ties. Emil Anderson of Logan was reappointed probation officer for the First district embracing Cache, Boxelder and Rich counties. Arthur McKinnon of Rich was re-appointed chief pro- ; bation officer of San Juan county, i Further appointments will be made on recommendation of the judges of j the courts from time to time, or as soon as suitable men can be found who I will accept the positions for the sal- I aries offered. The list of appointments recommend- j ed by Judge C. R. Bradford of the I Third district juvenile court, embrac- 1 ing Salt Lake, Summit and Tooele counties, was resubmitted to Judge Bradford so that it might be cut to i conform with the reduced appropria- I tion available. New Folley for Future. The commission this morning scanned , the biennial report of the commission j for 1919-1920 and concluded that the I juvenile courts of the state are spend- : ing too much time in petty cases. It was decided to send out letters of in­struction to the court judges and of­ficers to dispose of as many cases as possible out of the courts and avoid attaching the stigma of the court to minors wherever it can be reasonably done. Attention of the courts during the ensuing biennium will be concen­trated on the larger and more serious offenses in cases of juvenile delin­quency. The commission has placed under the ban such cases as violating the bicycle ordinances, discharging firearms, tres­passing, fighting, truancy, usng abus- ; ve language, assault and battery, and will devote more time to violations, such as malicious mischief, visiting pool rooms, using- tobacco or liqijors, grow­ing up in idleness and crime, petit lar­ceny, obtaining property under false pretense, immoral conduct, incorrigi­bility. The report of the last biennium shows that about one-third of all the cases tried in the juvenile courts were of the class banned by the new board. The aprpopriation of the juvenile courts were of the class banned by the new board. The apropriation of the juvenile courts will necessitate the most rigid economy, it having been cut one-third what it was in 1919-1920. It will be necessary on all sides to cut the per­sonnel of the courts. The apportion­ment of funds will be made on a basis of population in the schools. Salt Lake, Summit and Tooele counties will receive $20,160, as against $30,000 plus a deficit for the last biennium. Other districts will be cut in proportion.
