IN COURT CASES IN MONTANA Publish Delinquents' Names Mary Lynch Is Speaker At City Club In Montana, a judge began allowing publication of names of juvenile delinquents brought be- fore him. A sharp drop in cases of juvenile delinquency resulted. In Indiana, a judge gave ju- veniles a brief course on jury duty, had them "sit" on delin- quency cases and found he could accept all their recommended sentences, Involvement of this sort gave them better insight regarding the results of delinquents' ac- tion, he maintained. These experiments in the search for solutions to a leading social problem were recounted Tuesday night by Miss Mary Louise Lynch, an Ottawa law- yer and lone woman on Can- ada's five member National Parole Board. (Miss Lynch is.also the only Parole Board member on the Committee on Juvenile Delin- quency, now winding up a three year, cross-country study and due to publish its report soon.) "Most of our parolees started out as juvenile delinquents," Miss Lynch told Canadian Club members at last, nights Hotel Genosha meeting. "Often we get them near the end of the line. Their problems are many, not the least of which is the difficulty in getting a job." Miss Lynch said public epinion must be stirred because "people don't become concern- ed until they have a dangerous problem on their hands, | "Security, affection and dis-| cipline, all are needed to com-| hat delinquency.

The 58-year-old Cahill said that he would give no reason "at this time" for his resigna- tion from the post created by City Council on recommendation of the Woods, Gordon civic ad- ministration report completed Aug. 9, 1962. Mayor Lyman Gifford con- firmed that he received Mr. Cahill's resignation, but would comment no further. "I will acquaint the city council with the situation in the very near future," he said. (Council is meeting in commit- tee tonight but the mayor wouldn't insure that the matter would be discussed.) Mr. Cahill would not elaborate on his resignation. He said that his letter of resignation, - if it was ever made. public, wouldn't be released until council had been acquainted with it. His reasons, he said, were in the letter. The Woods, Gordon Report, completed at a cost of more than $10,000, recommended that the incoming director be in con- ast Bitrol of five civic departments-- Purchasing, Personnel, City En- gineering, Board of Works Yard and Parks, Property and Recre- ation -- but Council deleted the first two from his duties. STARTED IN 1963 Cahill's appointment as Direc- tor of Operations was made by City Council Sept. 3, 1963. Cahill took over in Oct., 1963, at a starting salary of $12,900 and was responsible for the "administration and co-ordina- tion" of three city departments ~-- Board of Works Yard, City Engineer and Parks, Property and Recreation. Cahill was employed for 15 months previous to moving here by the Catalyctic Construction Co. of Canada as project man- ager at the U.S. Air Base at 'robisher Bay. His duties in- volved supervision and admin- istration of all phases of con- struction, electrical power, steam and water facilities, with the over-all direction of assort- ed trades. Prior to that, he was a sec- tional superintendent on the Mid-Canada Early Warning Line for the Canadian Marconi Co. from February, 1960, to June, 1962. He also served from late 1957 to early 1959 as resident engi- neer for Canadian Car. Co., Montreal, on a $2,000,000 project on which he was responsible for many facets of the scheme. He was employed for 20 years with the City of Dublin, Ireland, and was responsible for the administration of such legisla- tion as building costs, housing and regulations. His duties as Council were: Ensure that all Council poli- cies and instructions affecting the departments under his con- trol are imnplemented as quick- ily as possible. | Direct the department heads under his control and co-ordi- nate the activities of their de- partments with other civic de- partments to ensure the smooth and effective operation of the civic administration. Assist his department heads in the establishment and main- tenance of long term plans for the guidance of council and its standing committees. Guide and assist department heads in the implementation of these plans. Recommend to counil the ap- pointment or removal of depart- ment heads under his control as the need may arise. Control the preparation and presentation to council of the annual operating and capital pudgets of departments for which he 1s responsible. Perform other duties as as- signed by Council. LIST REPORT The Woods - Gordon report recommended in part that there is a need for full time co-ordin- ation in the operating depart- outlined by Cahill Quits In Surprise Move "There have been a number of instances in the past," the report read, "where projects have been delayed through lack of communication between de- partment heads, so that while one may have done his part on a project, others have not, since they were unaware of need." The report says no criticism of individual department heads is implied, since im all cases each seems to have done his duty to the extent that he has been aware_of it. awa was unique in one respect, however. "In most city administrations under the Council-Committee system sooner or later one de- partment head emerges as a leader, to whom others go for advice, and who will undertake responsibility for functions, or who will follow through a project initiated by Council to ensure its comple- tion." "Such a man, the report con- tinues, becomes unofficially identified with the city adminis- tration and known as one who gets things done. While he may occasionally invite criticism for apparently overstepping his au- thority, the fact is that under the Council-Committee plan of organization such a man is al- most essential. "In the Oshawa administra- tion no such man exists," the report concludes. "There are a number of in- stances, the report points out, of Council instructions being frustrated for lack of co-ordina- tion. There are other instances of department heads asking to be relieved of responsibilities, although those responsibilities were not given to anyone else. "As a result," the report con- cludes, "it has fallen to Council to force departments to collab- orate, together with administer- ing functions such as property, airport administration and dog catching, rather than directin: the city as an_ integrated iments in the city. whole."

Through the CNIB they have access to a large library, with Braille and talking books on tape, The eight Braille.

Seventy per cent'of a young child's progress is achieved by copying the example of others, therefore extra effort must be made to explain the interest- ing everyday objects and hap- penings, and the CNIB pre- school department is available with helpinful tips for parents. The youngsters learn to swim and dig and play, just like sight- ed children, provided they re- ceive patient help and proper supervision. these activities play a valuabl role in helping the blind person to regain his ability to take his place in a sighted world. The CNIB carries a stock of specially constructed playing cards, dominoes and checkers. Mr. Hatton stated that the blind get a few concessions.
