e Child Adoption Plan Inaugurated l OLYMPIC (AP In the words of the social Wker. "Peter is a bright, friendly, likable littie fel low who gets along well with chil-i dren. He is unafraid, easy going and good natured." Peter would "like to have a mommy and a daddy. Meantime, Mr. and Mrs. W. W. are a "stable, mature attractive rnuDle. who can offer lots of ' warmth, affection, financial secu rity. They enjoy outdoors, have many hobbies." Thev would like to adopt a child. i Until a short time ago, the young . couple didn t know about Peter and Peter didn't know about them. Their cases were beinz handled by separate adoption agencies in different parts ot the state. This is no longer the situation. . Washington state has started a program to bring together children who need homes and couples who want children, regardless of which agency is involved. H is called the Washington Adoption Resource Exchange, un der the direction ot Miss Grace Semenza in the State Department of Public Assistance. Its purpose is primarily to find homes for children, who, because! of their age, color, physical handh caps or emotional problems, have been dhtictilt to place in adoption. Each month, the department sends a bulletin to the 39 county welfare offices and six private adoption agencies, listing the names and descriptions of avail able youngsters and parents. The bulletins are also mailed to tlie 12 states and two Canadian provinces which have similar ex change programs. . i . , Thus, if one agency doesn't Sura you can manag -a new model this year!

To keep the exchange list up to date, the private agencies are urged to inform the exchange of fice in Olympia of all newly- available children and parents. Miss Semenza said the exchange now has a list of Its children, but only 12 prospective parents. The new program, which just recently got under way, hasn't yet led to any adoptive placements, but Miss Semenza says it holds great promise of accomplishment. She said inquiries have already! been received from an Indiana couple who wanted an Indian boy. and a California family looking for an Oriental youngster. Among the 110 children current ly on the exchange are 36 N'egros, 27 Indians, and 3 part-Orientals Half of the youngsters are more than six years old.
