"Boys seek the street and the outside, and become receptive to the criminal ideas and ideals of tough pals or gangs, usually for just one reason: somehow, whether because of indifference, ignorance, laziness, or stupidity, the home and parents have failed," he reasons out of 15 years‘ experience based on hundreds of cases.

Reductions in Cost of Governmentâ€" Local Control Over Reliefâ€" Appeals to Town Board A great need is being felt for a reduction in the cost of our State Government. I favor reductions in State appropriations as far as posâ€" sible without crippling proper State functions and without failing to proâ€" vide proper relief funds to those acâ€" tually in need as a result of general unemployment conditions or other causes largely beyond their personâ€" al control. I believe that if payâ€" roll padding were largely eliminated and unnecessary public payrollers were discharged that the net reducâ€" tion in general appropriations would be considerable. Also, I believe that a strengthening of our Civil Service Laws and a requiring of a more businessâ€"like administration of the of School Laws of Eiir;;i';;l;;ui;im; codified and harmonized. A thorough investigation should be made in regard to our election laws for the purpose of ascertaining means and methods of providing greater protection against vote frauds and our election laws should be revised accordingly. A revision of the Parole Law should be made so as to protect the public from the parole of habitual criminals. The Civil Service Law should be strengthened so as to proâ€" tect employees from political influâ€" ence or assessments. Itemized appropriation bills should be required in all cases practicable in order to offset the evils of blankâ€" et appropriations, which are often used for padding payrolls at election time. Legislation should be enaeted which would require a business adâ€" ministration of our penal and charâ€" itable institutions, and prevent such scandals as have taken place at With the experience gained durâ€" ing his first term Kelsey believes he will be in better position to look after the interests, of the disâ€" trict and seeks the support of the voters for reâ€"nomination and reâ€" election ~~ _ Willis H.
