Child Abandonment
Bills in Legislature
Salem; '(U.R) State Sen. Carl
Francis " of Dayton today had
three bills working in the Legis
lature to make it tougher' on
dads who left the kids with mom
too long.
One of his proposals calls for
making it a felony instead of a
misdemeanor for contributing to
the dependency of a child. This
would make violators liable to
a prison term as well as a fine.
A second bill would require
the attorney general to institute
criminal proceedings in aban
donment cases and the third
would allow persons convicted
of such an offense to work on
the state prison farm.
