DEVELOPMENT OF LAWS
DEALING WITH JUVENILE
DELINQUENCY
The fgis.ativ* progress of Connecti
cut ia dealing with children, from the
foundat’icn of the coioriy in '6S5 to the
nresert t;me. forms an interesting
chapter in a recently published bulletin
entitled "hildren Before the Courts
in Connecticut." ssuea by the Child
rec's Bureau. Department of tabor. ..
The study outlines clearly the gradual
change in public opinion as to the res
p-ons bi! ty a‘ the child for his unlaw
fs. acts, and points cut the slowly
or ae. amelioration of the laws con
cerning ju-. eaile de'ir.queaey in that
state.
T- s progressive amelioration in the
treatment of youthful offenders in Cos
nectcut is marxed. according to the
bulletin, by three distinct epochs: (1)
T-e cocnia: and revolutionary period
'SJo-'S'e during the greater part cf
w- c- medieval methods of punishment
Svc~ as t*"e stocks, the pi:'cry. flogging
and branding were made use of: (21the
transit ionper'iod (:S" f -' 35’ when the
statute establishing tne flr*t juvenile
refer-natory was enacted: t3 the mod
era pe-icd ' 35 * - * 9*7 . t-is new era.
which was inaursted by the passage
of the oft^e ■'e'hrm seneof act of 'So1,
also deluding the recent enactment of
several important laws which tend to
improve juvenile del nquency by irr
prov -g tre send e.an cf children out
side of institutions
Illustrating the rigors cf the ccierv
ta, “3 ue Law" in the r dealings wtn
youthful offende-s a clause frem the
■revised code d* '672 is quoted.
•-if an man have a stubborn or re
oeijic-s Sen sufficient understand
ing a-d .ears, via. '6 years of age.
which wiis net obey the voice cf his
Father cr tne voice of his Mother,
and that when they have chastened
r m he wiii not hearken unto them:
t*sn may his rat-er or Mother, being
r s natural Parents lay hoid on him
and prong him to t-e magistrates as
sembled in court, and testify unto
tie-" that their Son ;s Stubborn and
Kebe ous and will not ob-ey their
voice and chastisement, such Son
•hail be put to death.”
The gradua abatement in t-e se
ve- t-y c* treatment aceo-ded deiin
quent chi.dren finally found express
on no the '9’.7 -act concerning juven
ile offenders." which went into effect
n that year. This act. though falling
s-ort of the gereraily accepted mode!
standa-d of juvenile-court laws is yet.
n t-e opinion of experts, a genuine
advance in egis aticr. Since its en
actment better methods have been
possible in the matter of arrests, deten
t cn. privacy of hearings, and separa
t on of juvenile records.

THE ‘FLU’ GERM
Ms co H. C. Gibson, who died * few
days ago in Abbeville, France, it is
now announceddied a martyr to sci
ence almost at the hour when, with two
ether workers. Majo- Bowman of the
Canadian Army Medical Corps and
Cart Connc- of toe Australian Ar
my Medica Corps he had completed
t~e discovery of what s probably the
causa*, v? ge*mn o' t-e Influenza epi
demle.
A p-e minarynote regarding thih
germ was oubl shed on December 14.
19*3. »r> the "British Medical Jour
na and thus Major Gibson's work
takes precedence over later oublica
*icns .
At that ti — e proof of the discov

him. to work so h3rd t-at he finally tell
a v ctirr to a v rulent strain o" the

P'-eurrcnia followed
The ge-m be'ongs to tne order of
filter-passers and is grown by the
Noguchi methods. It is reported that
monkeys have been infected and easi
y rave developed attacks producing
s — ali hemorrhages. The chain of evi
dence seems strong.
Recently it was observed that per
sons worn ag m gas works seemed to
possess a degree cf immunity. While
it raged around tnem thef themselves
escaped in a large measure.
At tne same time It was noted in a
certain room cf a munitions factory
in .uerza did no* deve!op. though
pe’sers workng in other rooms got
it. An analysis of the air :n these
p:aces was made and this air contain
ed a concentration of the fumes of
sulphurous acid.
Tnis led to setting up steam cham
ber similar to those which are em
p eyed to d sinfect carriers of cere
t'O-spinal fever. The results have
been fully up to e-pectations so far.
There is no reason why disinfecting
stations should not set up lor the
