Amendment of the law making It
necessary for the state architect to
approve plans for asylums before
they can be carried into execution
will be the first step to be urged by
proponents of Boclal welfare wnen tne
state legislature convenes next
Wednesday. In the opinion of Judge
John H. Cathey, of the county Juve
nile court, and other vitally inter
ested in the work among delinquent,
abnormal or underprivileged folk.
It is pointed out by these propon
ents that the legislature of 1917; au
thorized the sale of 1250,000 In bonds
to enlarge the asylums, but that
nothing had been done as tne state
architect, has been unable to furnlHh
plans for the additions and alter
ations necessary.
Nothina- has been done to care for
the accumulation of cases of feeble
mlndedness among children since the
Caswell Training school at Kinston
burned down more than two years
ago. Judge Cathey has had one appli
cation in more than a year ana an
other for more than eight months.
Constant care ot someone is required
in both cases, although families In
moderate circumstances are made to
bear the burden of each case.
Judge Cathey states that he has
cases ot insanity that have burdened
families for more than a year, and
that he can get no relief from the
state because of the lack of room in
the white asylum at Morganton, the
asylum for the colored folk at Golds
boro, for the epileptic at Raleigh, for
the delinquent boys at the Jackson
Training school. Concord, and for the
delinquent girls at the Smacarand
Manor, In Moore county. It is im
possible for the juvenile court to
function, he says,, until provision is
made to care for those who are
homeless, or for those who come from
homes conducive to delinquency. This
opinion is voiced by Juvenile court
Judges in all parts of North Carolina.
A bill ' to authorise any group of
counties to join in equally and' build
at a centrally located place an insti
tution to care, , for these Juveniles
would be of great benefit. Judge
Cathey says. There Is no public
children's home maintained by tax
ation in Western North Carolina, ex
cept rn Buncombe county. All juve
niles in all other counties have to de
pend on the Jackson Training school
at Concord, . and Smacarand Manor,
in , Moora county. And since these
are constantly full to the point ot
overflow, there is no place for them
to send these children, despite the
fact tha they must pay taxes and
that the fulfil be law in the estab
lishment it juvenile courts.
"Child welfare work, which covers
every phase of child life, from the
neglect and delinquency to feeble
mindedness, is. growing in its magni
tude," declared Judge Cathey, "and
the public is Just beginning to realize
what the welfare law means. It has
been copied by several states, tut It
has never been carried out in this
state. . ,.."'..".- , ;.,
"This state and the United States
have appropriated millions' of dollars
for the care and protection of animal
lifev but they have "been Very slow tQ
provide money and means tor the
care of child life. v
, "Lack of sympathy on the part of
politicians has kept -the best men and
women out of juvenile court work.
Our present child welfare and Juve

nlle court acts' are the most liberal
and far reaching ever placed on the
Ktatuta books .of any state. Hut we
lack means, both in men and money,
to carry out the provisions of this act
to the .'best advantage of the child
and state. Our law is for the guid
ance of the child and for the correc
tion of the parents or guardian, but
not necessarily for the punishment of
anyone. Punishment Is not necessary
td correction it we have properly :
trained welfare superintendents and
ample institutions. To attain this:
goal we must have more Institutions
and better paid workers; else we can
not attain the high alnis as contem
plated by our present laws,"
There has been strong objection In
all part of the state to the employ
ment by the board of county com
missioners or criminal officers as su
' perlntendents of public welfare. The
Idea of mixing criminal work with
semi-religious and semi-educational
work defeats the aims and purposes
I of the juvenile law. in the opinion of
! those interested in its enactment.

1921. If they file their application through
John 11. Cathey. clerk of Huncomtve
county suoerlor court, it became known
yesterday, when "an act to regulate the :
sloners," and "an act to amend section
S160 of the consolidated statutes relating
to the classification of pensions for sol
diers and widows" came Into official
recognition.
During the recent special session of
the state legislature there was no much
interest in the suffrage problem anil con
sideration of the revaluation act limita
tion, the concessions to the old soldiers
and thoir widows gained little atten
tion. One of the changes provides that
women who married Confederate solldnra
before 1875 are eligible for pension.
Those who married since 1868 have not

TWIFORD'S SHOE STORE FORCED TO ENLARGE
Our business since our opening, three months ago, has grown to such a proportion that we have been forced to enlarge our space-which we are now domg-beginning
tomorrow, (Monday) our entire stock of high grade Men's, Women's and Children's Shoes will be placed on sale at prices that will enable us to be in shape to take care
of our mammoth spring stoclc, which will be arriving soon. Oiir Mr. Twiford will leave for the eastern market in a few days--to purchase a much larger stock than we
had first anticipated to take care of outcast increasing business Below we mention a few of our many shoe bargains. Remember that our stock was purchased atter the
shoe market had dropped in prices, which in itself would be a saving without reducing our prices.
