ALASKA BOARD
TO CURE ILLS
If Harding and Coolidge are victori
ous in the November elections, restor
ing the Republican party to power, of
ficial Washington will be asked by J.
C. McBride, national committeeman
for Alaska, to authorize the appoint
ment of a governing board of five
Alaskans, with full power to act on
Alaskan matters.
This was made knowrn in an inter
view recently given by Mr. McBride.
The board would consist of one
member from each of the four judicial
divisions of the territory, to be ap
pointed by the president, with the gov
ernor serving as chairman. Bach
member would be a bona fide resident
of his division, under Mr. McBride's
plan. Sittings of the board would be
arranged in the various cities of the
territory.
While he declared that he had not
drawn up any detailed plan, Mr. Mc
Bride said that he would favor a sal
ary of $10,000 annually, with expenses,
for each member. Congress would
also be asked to raise the salary of
the governor from $7,500 a year to an
amount corresponding with the pay
other board members wrould receive.
A bill has been introduced in con
i gress providing a similar board, and
its duplicate has been filed in the sen
ate. Under the provisions of this bill
three members w’ould constitute the
board’s personnel. This number is in
sufficient. Mr. McBride said.
The board wmuld be given wide
power to deal with existing problems
in the north, under Mr. McBride’s plan.
Where much red tape is now encoun
tered in doing business with the gov
ernment, because of interlocking bu
reaus, short cuts to the situation could
be made by the board, Mr. McBride
declared.
Mr. McBride said that as far as he
was concerned, the manner of naming
the commissioners could be decided
by the people of Alaska, if presidential
appointment of the members wras not
desired by the people.
So far no one has asked for “a job,”
Mr. MeBride said, adding that no no
tice wrould be taken of applications by
job hunters until after the result oi
the November election is known.

WAYWARDNESS -
BEING HANDLED
IN NEW MANNER
__ 1
DENVER, Colo., July 16 (by Asso
ciated Press).—A juvenile laboratory
is a new addition to the machinery of
the courts of Denver through which
tvayward boys and girls pass before
Judge Ben B. Lindsey. Upon the man
ner in which the boy or girl passes the
mental and physical tests depends
the ultimate disposal of his or her
case.
Judge Lindsey asserts that a way
ward girl has three ages. He explains
it in this manner: A girl may be 13
years old, have the physical develop
ment of a girl of 18 and the mental
development of a child of 10 years.
“All this, I have found, has a great
deal to do with the way of handling
cases of delinquent girls,” the judge
declared. “For example, take the case
of a 16-year-old girl who has run away
and married a mature man. What to
do with her depends largely on her
three ages. Chronologically the girl
may not be old enough to get married,
but she has been married and the
question to be determined is whether
it is best to send her to a reformatory
merely because she eloped, or permit
her to remain with her husband.
“If she is biologically three or four
years older than 16 (that is possesses
the physical development of a young
woman of 19) and if her mental de
velopment is that of a normal girl of
16 or older and if she loves the man
she married, why it seems that for
her sake she should not be punished
for marrying.”
The judge says that whenever a girl
| comes before his court, the first pro
cedure is to obtain her three ages,
through methods developed by medical
men and psychologists. He declared
1 he intends to make the juvenile labora
■ tory available to the mothers of Den
ver so they can obtain the three ages
of their children and use this informa
toin in providing against indiscretions |
and possible criminality. '
An appropriation has been granted
for the carrying out of the proposed
laboratory and the judge is seeking to
obtain the services of an expert psy
chologist to take charge of the work.
The judge describes in this fashion i
how the department already has aided
one mother:
“A mother comes to me the other
day and complained that she had a
i daughter of 19 who gave her no trou
ble and a daughter of 15 who desired
social privileges that no mother could
give a girl of her age. I told her that
the 15-year-old daughter was 19 biolog
ically and had all the impulses and
emotions of the older girl without any
of the good judgment that comes with
later years.
“The younger girl is the one who,
obeying nature impulses without ma
ture judgment, gets into trouble on
automobile parties and at dances.
“We have been used to classifying
girls as good and bad. Sometimes the
difference is merely that one who
came into mature life when she was
possessed of good judgment is the
good girl and the other came into
mature development when she is
young and foolish is the bad girl."
