lion, many children are committed
sto an Institution simply bcejuiso .
authorities lack Information on
relatives who are capable of of
fering them good homes, she said.
"No matter how well-managed
an institution of the kind may be,
acquaintance, with it brings a feel
ing of insecurity and bewilderment
to tho child. Our problem is to
discover just which children would
bo better off in .institutions, and
homes offered." j paii s.
delinquency of children and care
of unmarried mothers is receiving
more attention by the. commission,
not because thesM problems are
necessarily Increasing, but because
, more effort is spent toward seek
ing them out, said Miss Marion
Ho wen of the state child welfare
bureau. She said broken home;
