tive In this connection was to see
that proper working conditions are
maintained.
Supervision of younger children
whose parents are working was
brought up and the possibility of
the Citizens Service Corps block
leadership system was suggested,
as an answer to the problem. .
Juvenile delinquency problems
were again brought to the atten-
tion of the council and President
Atkinson emphasized the need for
cooperative planning by both pri
vate and public agencies. A deten
tion home for boys, with a com
petent husband and wife In charge,
might be started if some initial
financial support from the Com
munity Chest could be obtained.

nationally observed Boys and Girls
week, scheduled for the last week
of April.
