Part I REPORT OF THE COMMISSIONER OF PUBLIC WELFARE

This year Federal Aid and the National Recovery Act brought strong re-enforce- ments in the battle against the depression. Up to 1933, Massachusetts cities and towns had carried their own burdens and had financed mounting welfare costs by greatly increased taxes. In 1932, the welfare expenditures of cities and towns amounted to $30,000,000 as against $7,500,000 in 1929. Federal Aid was first accepted in 1933, in the sum of $7,500,000. To administer Federal Aid the Governor wisely designated the Emergency Finance Board, of which Mr. Joseph W. Bartlett is Chairman. No new case work machinery was set up. City and town boards of public welfare, strengthened much in the last two decades by new responsibilities, got this one, too. The Emergency Finance Board asked the Commissioner to assist in the supervision of the new expenditures and to make recommendations in regard to boards of public welfare for increases in staff and for improvement in methods of work. Our recommendations covering fifty-four cities and towns are being enforced by the Emergency Finance Board. As we analyzed the places in which the administration was bad, we were led over and over again to the conclusion that the faults lay chiefly in the form of organization. The most satisfactory system is a separate board of public welfare, consisting of three or five unpaid citizens appointed for revolving terms. The board should have the authority to determine policies and make regulations and to select its trained agent or agents who are responsible to it. The agent should be given full power to administer the policies and regulations of the board. In some places where we found trouble the individual members of the board were making decisions for personal or political reasons on cases which arose within their districts instead of leaving to a trained executive the power to make decisions based on uniform rules. Wherever the chairman of the board was undertaking to do the work of an agent we found an unsatisfactory situation. Wherever the agent was a member of the board we found an unsatisfactory situation. In these two latter forms of organization there is a confusion of the two functions, policy making and administrative, which should be kept separate and the board is not sufficiently independent to provide the necessary check upon the actions of its agent. Where there was^ an* almo«aer, without a board, there was a tendency to bureau cracy, the executive having no group whom he rnu^t consult on matters of policy. If a single-

c headed department caxinoi' be replaced: \>y: a board of public welfare, we urge the creation of an advisory *bpard each member of which shares with the executive the responsibility for adopiwn' of policies.

Pt. I. 3 Agents should be selected with as much care as is used in the selection of superintendents of schools, from an approved list of persons professionally qualified and without regard to residence. Direct assistance from the Federal Government came first in May through the establishment of the Civilian Conservation Camps. The Commissioner was appointed by the Department of Labor as its agent to select the young men, eighteen to twenty-five years of age, for these camps. Preference was given to men from families already receiving aid. At a series of three meetings the Commissioner gave detailed instructions to 66 agents of city and town welfare boards for the selection of men of good character likely to remain in the camps and make the plan succeed. Eight thousand seven hundred fifty men were selected and sent to Camp Devens in May and June. The Commissioner employed an agent to provide recreational facilities immediately in order to help maintain the morale at Camp Devens and at the work camps. From the State Employees' Unemployment Fund $2,570 was spent to donate radios, pianos, athletic equipment, magazines and small articles for the comfort of the men and to organize recreation under leaders in all the camps. The National Recovery Act created large opportunities for reemployment. In Massachusetts the textile code was particularly effective and by September first the long lists of persons being aided by public welfare were reduced 40 to 60 per cent from April first figures in most of the industrial cities and towns. The percentage of reductions in the cities was as follows: % % % Leominster . . . 72 Chicopee . . . 44 Woburn . 30

Lawrence . . 68 Attleboro . . . 40 Brockton . . 26

No better evidence is needed to prove that the welfare lists can be reduced when work is offered. Under the Federal program of public works, the following building projects at state institutions in this Department were approved State Infirmary: Kitchen and Dining Room Building; New Boilers; Fire Pre- vention; Storehouse; Water Supply. Massachusetts Hospital School: Cottage for Girls; Cottage for Boys; Sewer Main.

Lyman School for Boys : Extension to Kitchen and Storehouse. Industrial School for Boys: Cottage for Boys; Kitchen and Laundry Building. Because of the delay in starting these projects, the Federal Government in November put into effect with a rapidity resembling war-time speed a Civil Works program designed to give immediate employment in Massachusetts to some 130,000 persons. Chairmen of boards of public welfare were appointed local relief admin- istrators. The Commissioner was appointed Civil Works Administrator for the state departments and secured approval of the following projects for this department: State Infirmary: Repairs on building; Interior and exterior painting; Renovating and extending sewage filters; Lowering and cleaning brook. Massachusetts Hospital School: Exterior and interior painting; Clearing land. Industrial School for Girls: Exterior and interior painting; Sewage treatment plant and two additional sewer beds. Administration: Repairing at Robbins Farm, Walpole; 130 social workers, for whom the Commissioner arranged an intensive week of instruction before they went out to visit temporary aid cases. The employment under the Civil Works program was designed to give to welfare recipients fifty per cent of the jobs. It succeeded in removing from the lists large numbers of families. The Civil Works program has saved many thousands of families from suffering and has demonstrated again that the proper remedy for unemployment is not relief but employment. 4 P.D. 17.

DIVISION OF AID AND RELIEF Frank W. Goodhue, Director The Division of Aid and Relief includes five subdivisions: Subdivision of Settle- ments, Subdivision of Relief, Subdivision of Mothers' Aid, Subdivision of Social Service, and Bureau of Old Age Assistance. The reports of the supervisors of these subdivisions and of the Superintendent of Old Age Assistance are herewith submitted.

Subdivision of Settlements Edward F. Morgan, Supervisor The subdivision of settlements investigates the settlements of patients admitted to the State Infirmary, State Farm (infirmary department), state sanatoria, and :

Pt. I. 5 the Massachusetts Hospital School, and generally supervises the settlement work of the division. There were 5 persons remaining in the infirmary department of the State Farm November 30, 1933. These patients cannot be removed because of their physical condition. The facilities of the infirmary department are no longer available for the admission of dependent persons. The following table is a summary of the work done during the year in the examination and investigation of settlements of inmates of the state institutions:

Subdivision of Relief John B. Gallagher, Supervisor

The subdivision of relief supervises public relief rendered by boards of public welfare and boards of health to persons, in their own homes and in hospitals, who have no legal settlement. The subdivision also investigates, upon the request of the Division of Vocational Education, the circumstances of persons receiving vocational training, who apply for aid during rehabilitation. The special consideration of interstate cases has become an important function of the subdivision. During the year twenty-seven states were requested to receive and provide for 383 cases. Of this number, 216 cases were accepted, 89 rejected, and decisions in 78 are still pending. The subdivision also investigated 517 cases referred by twenty-five states, the District of Columbia and Hawaii. Of these cases 294 were accepted, 126 rejected, and 97 are still under investigation. Temporary Aid (General Laws, ch. 117, sect. 18). — Cities and towns are authorized by statute to furnish adequate assistance to poor persons having no lawful settlements, if so ordered by the Department of Public Welfare. On December 1, 1932, there were 20,603 continued cases including 87,562 persons, and during the year 30,266 notices were received from 316 cities and towns concerning 122,577 persons.

Shipwrecked Seamen (General Laws, ch. 102, sect. 5). — During the year no cases were reported.

Sick State Poor (General Laws, ch. 122, sects. 17, 18). — The sick law provides that no persons shall be sent to the State Infirmary whose health would be en- dangered by removal. Cities and towns are reimbursed for the support of persons having no legal settlement who are ill in their homes or in public or privately controlled hospitals, infirmaries, or institutions for the deaf, dumb, or blind, provided such persons are not in suitable condition for removal to the State Infirmary when applying for assistance. On December 1, 1932, there were 186 continued cases, and during the year notices were received from 212 cities and towns concerning 9,582 persons represented as too ill to be removed. Dangerous Diseases (General Laws, ch. Ill, sect. 116). — The law provides that a board of health shall retain charge, to the exclusion of the board of public welfare, of any person ill with a disease defined by the Department of Public Health as dangerous to the public health. If any member of a family is ill with a disease declared dangerous to the public health, the aid required by the other members of the family is furnished by the board of public welfare, unless the family is quarantined as provided in General Laws, ch. Ill, sect. 95, in which event the board of health furnishes all aid required. In hospital cases, reimbursement by the Commonwealth is governed by the provisions of General Laws, ch. 122, sect. 18. On December 1, 1932, there were 197 continued cases, and during the year notices were received from boards of health of 102 cities and towns concerning 1,727 persons ill with diseases declared dangerous to the public health. Burials (General Laws, ch. 117, sect. 17, as amended by chapter 298, Acts of 1923). — The law provides that if the expense of burial is not paid by kindred "An amount not exceeding $40 for the funeral expenses of each person over 12 years of age, and not exceeding $20 for the funeral expenses of each person under that age, shall be paid by the Commonwealth; provided that the board of public welfare shall file with each claim an affidavit of the undertaker stating the total amount of his bill, the amount received from the town, and the amount received from all other sources, and provided, further, that if the total expense of the burial, by whomsoever incurred, shall exceed the sum of $100 no payment therefor shall be made by the Commonwealth." The number of burial claims received during the year was 589 from 83 cities and towns. Vocational Education (General Laws, ch. 74, sect. 22B). — The law provides that the Department of Public Welfare shall, upon request of the State Board of . :

Pt. I. 7 Vocational Education, make an investigation of the circumstances of persons actually in training afforded by said board, who apply for aid during rehabilitation, and shall make a report of its finding to said board. During the year 8 applications were received and investigated, 7 of which were approved. Audit The number, amount, and allowance of the bills examined on account of cases of temporary aid, sick state poor, dangerous diseases, burial, old age assistance, and mothers with dependent children are shown in the following tabulation. It is to be noted that the total shown in this table may vary somewhat from the total paid out of the treasury during the fiscal year from the appropriation in question. This possible variance arises from the fact that bijls audited by this department are in some cases not actually paid during the year for which the audit is shown. For actual expenditures from these respective appropriations see page 61.

Removals The department is charged with the duty of removing sane poor persons to cities and towns within the Commonwealth, or, when not belonging in Massa- chusetts, to the state or place where they belong. The following table shows the removals made during the year: 1931 1932 1933 To other countries 63 121 97 To other states 346 473 537 To towns of residence 1,330 1,173 1,445

1,739 1,767 2,079 Supervision of Wayfarers' Lodges and Cheap Lodging Houses

Boston, like other large cities, gets its quota of the homeless. Boston is well equipped to care for these men. The Wayfarers' Lodge maintained by the city gives lodging, but because of the lack of sufficient bed room, arrangements have had to be made with several commercial and charitable lodging houses to care for the surplus. In two of the larger charitable lodging houses, the use of the so-called double decker beds has been abandoned which has reduced the bed capacity from 1,849 which was last year's figures to 1,634, this year's capacity. As stated in last year's report, the condition of all lodging houses of this class has materially improved. Many instances show complete renovation; new beds and bedding have been purchased in several instances. The establishment of a housing plan for transient men, at this writing contemplated, if effected will probably care for homeless men who have wandered into the State and City of Boston from the more remote places, and in whose behalf some system of rehabilitation will prove beneficial.

Distribution of Mothers' Aid cases: There were 3,103 active Mothers' Aid cases in 39 cities on November 30, 1933; 809 active Mothers' Aid cases in 176 towns on November 30, 1933, and no active Mothers' Aid cases in 140 towns on November 30, 1933. The Federal emergency measures have affected the recipients of Mothers' Aid. Under the Civilian Conservation Corps many older boys, discouraged and dis- heartened by two or three years of enforced idleness, have been sent to camp and have returned after six months in good health and trained to work. Many of them have re-enlisted for a second period. It has been possible to reduce the Mothers' Aid to the families of these boys by at least $25 a month while they are at camp. The Civil Works Administration projects for women have provided sewing, knitting, clerical work, library cataloguing, census enumerating and filing work for many Mothers' Aid recipients who have been paid from $12 to $18 a week for this work. Some of them have become wholly self-supporting and others partly self-supporting, so that the Mothers' Aid allowances have been suspended alto- gether or greatly reduced during the period of their employment. The Home Owners' Loan Corporation has helped several widows to salvage their homesteads. The Mothers' Aid Law has been in effect for twenty years. At the end of each fiscal year, November 30, boards of public welfare are required to send to this

At the end of the first fifteen-month period ending November 30, 1914, there were 2,334 active cases. For five consecutive years thereafter the number increased steadily until the peak was reached in 1919 with 3,743 cases. The World War and the influenza epidemic contributed largely to the increase during the years 1917, 1918 and 1919. A steady drop in the number of cases followed from the year 1919 to November 30, 1926, when a new low level of 2,600 cases was reached. This level was maintained during 1926, 1927, 1928 and 1929. Beginning in 1929 there has been a steady increase due to the business depression and unemployment. At the end of this fiscal year there were 3,912 active cases, representing a gain of 50 per cent in four years. This was the highest number reported during the entire twenty-year period. During the last fiscal year there were 1,135 new cases added.

Subdivision of Social Service Miss Flora E. Burton, Supervisor During the winter of 1932-1933, in which presumably the depression reached the greatest depths, the State Infirmary had a daily average population of 3,069. On November 30, 1933, there were 3,097 patients, compared with 3,252 on Novem- ber 30, 1932, a decrease of 155, and a hopeful sign for the coming winter. Men Because the men's wards of the State Infirmary were so crowded in December, 1932, it was necessary to stem the tide of admissions. As Boston sent fifteen times as many patients as any other city, one of the social workers, who has worked with the men for years and who would know many who would apply, was placed, with the cooperation of the City of Boston Institutions Department, in its office, to interview all men applicants from January 1 to April 1, 1933. The objectives were to find out how many men really did need infirmary or hospital care and how many needed only lodgings and food. In three months there were 448 applications (218 in January, 111 in February and 119 in March). One hundred forty (140) men were sent to the State Infirmary as needing hospital care. One hundred thirty (130) were boarded at the Salvation Army Hotel, at the rate of $5 a week. These men had not had previous admissions to the State Infirmary, but were at the end of their resources due to long months of unemployment. Ninety-eight (98) men were referred to other social agencies for care and treatment, because of their youth or previous contacts. Forty-five (45) were sent to places of settlement for the local boards of public welfare to provide assistance. Thirty-five (35) were refused assistance and advice. In these ways 310 men who might have gone to the State Infirmary were served more intelligently and the Infirmary wards and service were substantially relieved. In April, when the service ceased, immediately the daily admissions to the State Infirmary increased noticeably. It is hoped that a social worker, with a knowledge of social resources and an understanding of the homeless man, may sometime be assigned to the Institutions Registration Department of Boston, the most important admitting office to the State Infirmary, to continue this work of dealing more intelligently with homeless men. Among the great number of men at the State Infirmary there are some who refuse to abide by the very simple rules of the hospital and need a kind of treatment which no hospital can give. Twelve (12) men with court records, who were constantly absconding and returning to recover from alcoholism, were sent by the Lowell District Court, at the request of the institution, to the State Farm at Bridge- water. The boards of public welfare can and should send such men directly to the State Farm as vagrants or chronic alcoholics, and not to the State Infirmary, which is a hospital. The State Infirmary would be a happier place if this dissolute and obstreperous group could be sent elsewhere. We can only appeal to the boards —

Pt. I. 11 of public welfare to be discriminating and cooperative in the effort to better the service of the State Infirmary to the sick. During the year there has been an increase of 121 in the number of patients with syphilis and gonorrheal infection. The patients have been obliged to stay longer than usual, three months or more, because they have had no outside resources on which to depend for a living or for clinical treatment and the wards have been greatly overcrowded. There is not sufficient work or occupation available for these young patients, who naturally become restless and present a social problem in the wards. Women Two hundred sixty-five (265) women and girls were treated for venereal disease 150 for syphilis and 115 for gonorrheal infection—an increase of 54. One hundred and eighty-seven (187) women and girls were admitted for illegitimate pregnancy. Seventy-five (75) came from institutions—36 from the State Industrial School for Girls, 29 from the Reformatory for Women, 6 from schools for the feeble- minded, 1 from the Monson State Hospital and 3 from the Defective Delinquent Colony. Of the remaining 112 illegitimate pregnancies, 36 were first offenders, 44 accompanied by 10 children were second offenders, 11 accompanied by 3 children were third offenders, 2 were fourth offenders, and 19 were married but illegiti- mately pregnant. Ten (10) women were admitted for legitimate confinement. Twenty-one (21) women with their babies were placed at work, but for very much smaller wages than in recent years—$1 to $3 a week, which was the wage scale in 1913—and the homes are not as desirable as formerly. It is increasingly evident that all unmarried mothers need advice and assistance, which should be extended to those who do not come to private or public care but who are struggling along in misery and loneliness without asking assistance from any one. Children

On December 1, 1933, there were at the State Infirmary, 244 children of whom 92 were between the ages of 15 and 21 years, and 152 were under 15 years of age.

The older group of 92 may be classified as follows : Thirty-two (32) were physically well and awaiting placement, 14 were pregnant, 14 had gonorrheal infection, 9 had syphilis, 10 were feeble-minded, 7 had tuberculosis, and 6 had miscellaneous ailments. The younger group may be classified as follows: Forty-three (43) were feeble- minded, 1 had diabetes, 1 had congenital syphilis, 2 had gonorrheal infection, 2 were cardiac, 1 was a behavior problem, 1 had lead poisoning, and 100 infants and small children were with their mothers, 70 of whom were well and ready for discharge, but whose mothers were under treatment, or awaiting social disposition. Of the whole number, 59 were wards of the Division of Child Guardianship, 42 under 15 years and 17 over 17 years of age and 32 were girls from the State Industrial School for Girls and 3 were boys from the Industrial School for Boys. These 75 young people create a real problem, in that they need more supervised work and recreation than can be given in a hospital. Those who come from the Industrial Schools could be given better supervision and equally good medical care in their own institutions. Seven (7) children, as well as adults, have been admitted from the surrounding communities for acute illnesses, which service the Infirmary is very glad to give.

Supervision and Placement

Replacements were more numerous than last year because it has been harder to find employers who were able to pay wages to women. As work for mothers with a baby has been more difficult than ever to find, many babies have had to be boarded. Two hundred thirty-one visits were made to hospitals. The Massachusetts General Hospital is always very generous in giving free service, medicine and cooperation, acting as an out-patient department for the State Infirmary. Another institution, the House of the Good Shepherd, has been most helpful in giving assistance to girls. 12 P.D. 17. Transients and Homeless This year has seen more homeless, hopeless, wandering men, women and families than ever before. The applications increased greatly and facilities for care remained the same. Insofar as possible the transients were returned to their homes, states or relatives, who were willing to receive them, after proper investigations had been made. But there were many who had lost all claim because of many years of travelling for work, and who had no kin who could assist. For these men there has been no solution, except shelter in the charitable institutions, until they find work or move to the next city or state to try the same disheartening task of getting food and shelter, but no work. It is this utterly homeless group that the assistance of the Federal Government will save from further mishap in well organized work relief camps. However, this Federal assistance will not provide for the local homeless persons who belong within the state or city. At present they are being inadequately provided for in shelters and lodging houses, some receiving a small amount of public aid to keep them from starving, but obtaining no work. Idleness is demoraliz- ing to the spirit of the men. It is possible for the state to develop permanent work camps in various parts of the state where work projects are available. Wages at such camps would not be so large as to attract able-bodied men to remain in them, but would give them temporary work and would give permanent work and shelter to an unemployable group. With such camps the able-bodied men would never need to go to the State Infirmary, and the state would not only be saving the lives but the souls of many by work and wages. In return the state would be benefited by actual work accomplished and by making more contented citizens. There are still comparatively few homeless transient women. For these women free temporary homes and relief may be supplied until work can be found for them. Families who cannot be returned to a home in some other state have been cared for with State Temporary Aid.

A group of students from Trinity Church, Boston, have been visiting the Infirmary as friendly visitors. Two Radcliffe College students have been giving regular service, carrying on through the summer by friendly cor- respondence. For this interested and kindly service from the outside world, the patients are always most grateful, and we appreciate the efforts and time given by these busy people, yet we are sure they are many times repaid.

Bureau of Old Age Assistance Francis Bardwell, Superintendent The close of the fiscal year, November 30, 1933, finds 18,399 active cases receiving Old Age Assistance, this as against 16,772 active cases at the close of the fiscal year, November 30, 1932. While the increase has been gradual, it is still an increase and as long as the gain exceeds the normal increase in the population of the Commonwealth, it cannot be said that the peak in this form of assistance has been reached. Pt. I. 15 The serious situation brought on by the depression and its attendant unemployment has in no small degree affected the lives of persons over seventy years of age. The inability of logical supporters to provide, the closing of banks impounding in many cases life savings of elderly people, the stagnation in the real estate market together with the impossibility of securing employment for those still able to work, all these factors have materially increased the numbers seeking this form of aid. It can be said, however, that the general public is beginning to realize that this form of assistance is not a pension and that only certain persons over the age of seventy are legally entitled to such assistance. From the start the Bureau has been besieged by interested friends and relatives of aged people who have lost sight of the fact that need is one of the essential qualifications for enrollment. While under the policies an individual is considered eligible if possessing an equity of less then $1,500 in real estate which must be used for a home, or having less then $300 in money, yet applications are made by people owning more. The fact is lost sight of that the real estate equity is allowed so that an aged person or couple can still continue to reside in their own home, but cannot rent this property and reside elsewhere. Again in computing equity the Commonwealth and local bureaus can only accept the value placed by the local assessors, irrespective of the oft-repeated contention that the property is over-assessed. Property whereon there must be payments of principal cannot be allowed, and some difficulties have arisen in the matter of adjusting cooperative bank mortgages to the straight mortgage plan. In some localities physicians' charges for attendance have been excessive, due not so much to the charge per visit as to the unnecessary number of visits. This bureau has felt that the recipient should normally receive the services of his family physician rather than a city physician if charges and visits are not excessive. It is naturally expected that a family physician is a doctor who has long been in attendance on the recipient, and because of his acquaintance and interest is willing to keep down the expense. Excessive charges, however, must of necessity lead to the employment of a city or town physician under whose care all cases needing medical attention will be placed. Local and state bureaus insist that children who are financially able shall assume their legal responsibilities. Doubtless this will always be a problem. Those in charge of the administration of this law propose to require full or partial support on the part of all children financially able to do so; and in those cases in the past which have reached the court, the contention of the local bureaus that the children are able to support has usually been upheld and in some cases the allotment required by the bureau has been materially increased by the court. The financial ability of the child or children has always been carefully investigated before any final action has been taken. With few exceptions local bureaus of old age assistance have been cooperative. With the increasing work placed upon local boards of public welfare, the supervision of the state visitors has in many instances gone beyond ordinary supervision and it has been necessary to assist in making investigations. Unfortunately there are some local boards who do not visit recipients in their homes and are not aware of unsatisfactory conditions until these are called to their attention by the state visitor. Our clients are old people, many of whom are in feeble health; some are easily preyed upon by unscrupulous persons. Especially in the case of those who live alone, visits should be frequent. Those living with relatives or friends do not need such close supervision because we are aware that any serious condition will be immediately reported. To some people complaint is a chronic habit. To such, no amount of material assistance would be adequate; they become known to local boards, the state visitor and the state bureau. They are a very small number and usually are backed in their complaints by relatives or others who expect to profit by any increase in allotment. But in the main our clients are contented and grateful, live in a com- fortable manner and are happy in the fact that sufficient is given them to continue to live in their own way. These people, the great majority, prove the wisdom of the law. The following regulation was approved by the Commissioner and the Advisory Board: .

16 P.D. 17. "In order to adjust removals of applicants who desire to take up residence in another city or town, or who temporarily move to another city or town for any reason, such as a temporary absence on vacation of the family with whom the aged person is living, local boards may pay a beneficiary under this law for a period not exceeding three weeks' absence from the place of residence. In such cases checks should be mailed to the beneficiary's last address within the town of residence."

Statistics

On December 1, 1932, there were 16,802 active cases receiving Old Age Assistance. During the year 6,133 new cases were added and 4,536 cases closed so that there were 18,399 cases receiving Old Age Assistance at the close of the fiscal year, November 30, 1933. The new cases were classified as follows:

Old Age Assistance Appeal Board Chapter 285 of the Acts of 1933 provides for the creation of an Appeal Board to consider cases which have been refused assistance under the Old Age Assistance Law by local bureaus of old age assistance. The Board was organized consisting of the Chairman of the Advisory Board as Chairman, the Director of Aid and Relief, and the Superintendent of Old Age Assistance as Secretary. Two meetings have been held. Twenty-two (22) appeals have been made to the Board; 4 have been approved, 10 denied, 2 withdrawn, the cases having been satisfactorily adjusted, and 6 are pending, awaiting further information necessary to complete a thorough investigation. 18 P.D. 17. DIVISION OF CHILD GUARDIANSHIP Miss Winifred A. Keneran, Director Children in Care and Custody of the Division

On December 1, 1932, there were under the care of the Division of Child Guardian- ship 6,853 children, classified as follows: delinquent, 189; wayward, 10; neglected, 3,298, and dependent, 3,356. Children in the three groups first mentioned were court committed and the last named were received on applications from parents, guardians or boards of public welfare. During the year ending November 30, 1933, 1,171 children were admitted to care, viz: delinquent, 118; wayward, 2; neglected, 590 and dependent, 461. These figures show a decrease of 71 in all classes as compared with the number received the previous year. The total number of children under care for the year was 8,024. Although the number received in 1933 was 71 less than the admissions for the year 1932, we closed the year 1933 with 7,067 children, an increase of 214 or slightly more than three per cent. This gain in population is explained by the fact that we have been unable to return as many children to their parents as in previous years. Especially in the cases where children were committed by courts on account of neglect, we have found that many of these parents are satisfied to be relieved of their responsibilities and they are unwilling or unable to make an effort to reconstruct their homes and change their ways of living. We believe that if there were some way of reaching these parents shortly after the commitment of the children, with frequent visitation and follow-up, they might be encouraged to provide for their children within a reasonable time. As matters now stand there is no machinery by which they can be followed. Our Visitors are already carrying loads which are in many cases too heavy to warrant best results in caring for the children in foster homes. There are also a large number of parents whose children were received for temporary care and who continue their interest in their children but who, on account of the present industrial conditions and lack of employment, have been unable to make satisfactory provision for their return. There is always a certain group of parents who show interest in and affection for their children and who make repeated applications for their release; but they make no effort to improve their own conditions, and we are obliged in the interest of the children to refuse such applications. The number of children discharged from custody was 971. Only 86 of the 7,067 under care on December 1, 1933 were born outside the United States. Fifty-two (52) of these were born in Canada and the remaining 34 in European countries. Two thousand nine hundred ninety-seven (2.997) or 42.3 per cent of our entire number have one or both foreign-born parents. The percentage of illegitimate children remains about the same as in previous years— 1,815 or 25.68 per cent. We have in custody 413 colored children. Seven thousand, sixty-seven (7,067) l children remained in our care on December 1, 1933, viz: delinquent, 215; wayward, 9; neglected, 3,461, and dependent, 3,382. Six thousand, seven hundred eight (6,708) of this number are placed in foster homes under the following conditions: 5,292 or 74.8 per cent, are fully supported by the Commonwealth; 266 are partially supported, while 586 are placed without expense. One hundred ninety-five (195) of this last number have been placed with parents or relatives subject to our visitation and supervision. Five hundred sixty-four (564) —258 boys and 306 girls—are self-supporting. One hundred

1 In addition to these 7,067 children, the Department had under its supervision and visitation November 30, 1933, 504 boys at the Lyman School for Boys; 247 girls at the Industrial School for Girls; 278 boys at the Industrial School for Boys; 2,598 boys and 679 girls in the custody of the Trustees of the Massachusetts Training Schools, outside the schools; 110 boys and 97 girls, patients at the Massachusetts Hospital School; and 193 children, patients at the State Infirmary, who are either young infants with their mothers, or else under hospital treatment, making a total of 12,355 children in the care and custody or under the supervision of the department. There were also 2,105 children supported at the expense of cities and towns who were subject to the department's visitation, reported upon at page 57. Pt. I. 19 sixty-two (162) are receiving treatment in hospitals where board is paid and 143 are free in similar institutions. The whereabouts of 46 boys and 8 girls are unknown. One thousand four hundred twenty-five (1,425) foster home applications for children to board were received during the year. As may be expected at this time, the majority of these requests were from families who considered first the possibility of securing some revenue in the home in which the members were out of employment. These homes could not be accepted for placement of our children, and the applicants were so notified without investigation. In cases which looked promising we made the usual investigation with the result that only three hundred (300) homes were approved, as follows: for babies, 18; for children between three and twelve years, 166; for boys and girls over twelve, 116. We have been fortunate, however, in having a sufficient number of good foster homes to provide for our boarded children. Persons who are not familiar with foster home care will find it difficult to realize the splendid cooperation given by hundreds of our foster parents and the sacrifices which they have been obliged to make, especially during the past year. Realizing that the incomes in many families have been reduced, our visitors have endeavored to interest and instruct our foster mothers in food values, particularly stressing the value of milk as a material for growth. We have a very serious problem confronting us in making provision for boys and girls over sixteen years of age. Many of them have not sufficient mental ability to profit by further schooling, but there is little or no occupation where they may be gainfully employed and it is absolutely necessary that they should have employment or continue at school. We have encouraged them to attend school and we have thus been obliged to continue payment of board for many whose ages might indicate that they should be self-supporting. Fewer opportunities are offered to girls to assist in housework and wages are smaller than formerly. We have 212 girls so employed at wages varying from $2.50 to $5.00 per week. Other forms of work have been correspondingly difficult to obtain. Twenty (20) girls are employed in factories, 5 in offices and 31 as waitresses, cashiers, salesgirls, etc. Nine hundred eighty-three (983) girls over twelve years of age attend school, as follows: elementary, 348; junior high school, 260; high school, 309; special class, 23; trade school, 9; nurses' training school, 13; evening school, 6; continuation school, 9; teachers' college, 1; college, 1; business college, 4. The same difficulty in securing employment is true of the boys who present a problem even greater than that of the girls. One thousand, one hundred nine (1,109) boys over twelve years of age are attending school, as follows: elementary, 584; junior high school, 218; high school, 223; special class, 26; trade school, 23; continuation school, 5; Wayside Inn Boys School, 27; college, 1; evening school, 2. Seventy-five (75) boys are employed on farms and 20 in stores and offices, 28 in mills or factories, 11 in police barracks, and 17 in several other occupations. We were fortunate in having 76 of our boys, between the ages of eighteen and twenty-one, placed with the Civilian Conservation Corps. These boys were out of school and were, naturally, growing restless because of inactivity. The work project brought to them and to us most welcome relief. The. Wayside Inn Boys School has given opportunity to boys this year who are interested in agricultural pursuits. Twenty-seven (27) are attending school and 9 others, having completed the course at the School, are employed at the Wayside Inn, South Sudbury, or by the Ford interests at Dearborn, Michigan. For the tables showing the details of the work done during the year by this division, see pages 26ff.

Infants under Care

The number of children under three years of age on December 1, 1932, was 503. Two hundred seventy-six (276) were received, making the total number supported during the year 779. This number includes 4 foundlings who were committed under the provisions of General Laws, chapter 119, section 22, and 5 infants removed from unsuitable boarding homes under the provisions of section 28 of the same chapter. Seventy-three (73) were discharged from custody and 234 were transferred 20 P.D. 17 to the subdivision for older children, leaving 472 children in this group at the clos* of the year.

I. 21 The Mentally Deficient Group Children who are mentally deficient to such a degree that they cannot profit by attendance at the regular classes in school and who require specialized care in carefully selected foster homes are assigned to two visitors who supervised 404

I children during the past year. On December 1, 1932 there were 267 children in this group. During the year

1 137, ranging in age from 3 to 19 years, were referred for special care and included

• 62 boys and 75 girls. Thirteen (13) of these who were obviously of institutional type were committed to the state schools for the feeble-minded within eleven

i months after their reception by this division. The majority of the remaining 124 were placed in special foster homes for the purpose of training them for satisfactory social and economic adjustment in the community. Several of these children required temporary hospitalization on account of their depleted physical condition when received. One hundred eleven (111) children left our care and were pVovided for as follows:

Five (5) children of this group died during the year. The twelve (12) who were automatically discharged by reason of having reached their twenty-first birthday were placed with responsible relatives or transferred to the Department of Mental Diseases for further supervision. At the close of the year we had 288 children— 126 girls and 70 boys over twelve years of age, and 37 girls and 55 boys between the ages of three and twelve. One hundred eighty-five (185) children of this group are boarding in 39 special foster homes and 26 are employed in the community at wages. Seventy-seven (77) who are not placeable in the community and who require scientific care are in institutions, as follows: Hospital Cottages for Children, Baldwinville, 3; Monson State Hospital, Palmer, 20; State Infirmary, Tewksbury, 34; State Sanatoria, 3. The remainder, 17, are placed in other institutions which provide care suitable to their needs. Periodically, application is made to the state schools for the feeble- minded for the admission of all children in these institutions, and their names are added to the waiting list.

Subdivision of Investigation The fourth year of depression just passed prompts one to study with much interest its effect on the different phases of social work. A comparative table of the statistics of this subdivision for the last five years shows little variation.

Children Assumed by Applications Year Applications Received Private for Discharged Sect. 38 Agencies Discharge 1928-29 1267 334 87 175 108 1929-30 1363 359 70 187 151 1930-31 1572 407 133 145 107 1931-32 1358 339 97 163 113 1932-33 1488 310 100 188 141

In addition, 142 children were committed by the boards of public welfare under General Laws, chapter 119, section 22. Last year 141 were so committed and the previous year, 137. There is also no undue increase in the number of abandoned children. During the past year there were but four (4) foundlings. The noticeable difference is in the character of the case. In the earlier days of the depression the local boards of public welfare were not ready to meet the situation; sufficient aid was seldom given and many families appealed to this division as a last resort. Many times, though the father could not obtain employment, the mother was able to earn, and that seemed to them a sufficient reason for asking placement for the children. With the recognition of the problem by 22 P.D. 17. local boards, and their increasing readiness to handle the situation, in addition to lack of work for women as well as for men, the number of this type of case has decreased. There also have been fewer cases of children abandoned in boarding homes. The statistics of privately boarded infants show a decrease, which indicates to some extent a hesitancy to make a contract to pay board which one cannot keep and also an increase in unemployment for women. Reports of children placed and supported by boards of public welfare show a marked increase. Many boards have been using as foster homes the better type of family already receiving aid. Under careful supervision this plan works out very well. There have been many family cases where illness has been the cause of an appeal for help. One instance this year shows a case which in normal times would probably have been cared for by local agencies. An emergency call for help came from the State Department of Health for the care of nine children, all under twelve years, whose parents and an older sister were in the hospital on account of typhoid fever. This family lived in a small town and had been insufficiently aided by the local welfare department. The man had some work but the whole family was undernourished and a prey to disease. The children were received at once. Since all had been exposed to typhoid fever and had been inoculated, a special home was provided in which all the children were placed. Investigation proved that the probable cause of the infection was food which they had gathered from garbage cans and elsewhere in order to assuage their hunger. This family had no settlement, so after three months when all members had recovered, the worker from this division, in cooperation with the visitor from the Division of Aid and Relief and the local Red Cross agent, rehabilitated the family in a city where adequate aid was guaranteed. Since nearly all the household goods and clothing had been destroyed, it was necessary to spend a great deal of time and effort to reestablish a home sufficiently equipped to supply the needs of this family. Then all the children were returned to a suitable home and to parents who were fully recovered. One outstanding type of case involves the adolescent boys or girls who are dependent on relatives or friends. These children have been cared for with little or no compensation and now that there has been a falling off in resources and no opening leading toward self-support it becomes necessary to ask for help. Enforced leisure without supervision or constructive planning tends toward juvenile delin- quency whose existence is often the real cause of application.

The following are the Statistics of the Subdivision of Investigation:

No branch of our work is more satisfactory than the adoptions we sponsor. They mean that children are re-established in normal homes and are given the opportunity to grow up in good surroundings with the companionship of real parents. The foster parents seem more enthusiastic about their adopted children than they would if they were their own flesh and blood. Two cases were contested, one in Worcester County and one in Hampden County, but both were allowed by the court on the grounds of the welfare of the child which is the determining issue in all such cases.

Twenty-eight (28) children have been placed for adoption during the year. Twenty-nine (29) have been adopted, 8 boys and 21 girls. The oldest child adopted was a girl 19 j^ears old and the youngest, a boy 17 months old. There are now on trial for adoption 54 children.

Investigation of Petitions for Adoption

During the year ending November 30, 1933, the number of notices for investigation of adoptions received from the fourteen Probate Courts in Massachusetts was 659, and during the same period in 1932, 686 notices were received. Our investigations reveal two distinct types of adoption that are easily recognized. The first group is usually comprised of childless married couples who deliberately plan to find a child whom they can adopt, whi,le the second group is made up of persons who become interested in a particular child through contact or association. The first group furnishes the better adoptions because potential parents of this type give thought to the wisdom of the act, and after carefully considering their financial standing, their ages, and their prospects in life, they decide to look for a child whose parent or parents are willing to give him up and upon whom they can bestow the advantages thejr had hoped to give to their own children. The second group of adoptions furnish more variety and less stability. These adoptions arise from association. There is no serious thought given until a situation has been created from which the adopting parents are unable to extricate themselves without much suffering. For instance, a married couple, in order to increase the famity income, may take a child to board. If the child is illegitimate, little consideration is given by the natural mother to the expense of boarding the child. Her motive is to have the child placed before it is discovered that she has become a mother. Before long, however, the weekly payments become onerous. Either the baby becomes sick and needs medical treatment, or the mother loses her work, or her wages are reduced. Difficulties of one sort or another arise between the mother and the boarding couple who wish to make an adoption. No one has given thought to the assurance of a reasonably satisfactory future for the child. Some of the immediate sources of trouble are a demand by the boarding parents for the entire board bill for the child, a threat by the mother to remove her child, the marriage of the mother and her desire to take the child into her new home, and the refusal of the foster parents to yield the child under any condition. Some of the persons who take children for adoption are men and women of advanced age. Often thejr have reared a large family and usually they have grandchildren upon whom they could bestow their affection. The ages of one such couple were eighty-seven and seventy-seven respectively. Some justification ma}' be allowed for an adoption of this kind, provided the adopting parents have wealth, but when the proposed parents are the recipients of Old Age Assistance the child's future is insecure. Should men and women be allowed to adopt children whose parents are inmates

of hospitals for the mentally ill, schools for the feeble-minded, or institutions of a similar nature? For years this division has refused to recommend the adoption of its wards if the mental or moral background of the child is poor. How a child of a feeble-minded mother will react to a good home and proper environment, it is impossible to tell.

We cite two cases that came to our attention recently in which low grade children i were placed in excellent homes:

Case 1. The child of an unmarried mother who is 23 years of age and who i has had two illegitimate children. The mother has a mental age of ten years and eleven months, has tubercular tendencies and is now an inmate of a correctional her mother died of tuberculosis in a institution. Her father was alcoholic and j hospital for the insane. A brother was insane and a half brother is epileptic, receiving hospital care. The adjudicated father of this child whose adoption is :

Pt. I. 25 sought is low-grade mentally and his mother has served a sentence in the House of Correction. Case 2. The father of this child is insane in a state hospital and is tubercular. The mother is also seriously ill with tuberculosis. Both parents show positive reaction to the Wassermann test. The maternal grandparents died of tuberculosis. Four legitimate children of this family and one illegitimate child are in the care of this department. The sixth child, for whom the petition for adoption was presented in court, has congenital syphilis.

Social Service for Crippled Children Miss Margaret MacDonald, Supervisor

The work of this subdivision is devoted largely to the supervision of the annual census of physically handicapped children as provided for under General Laws, chapter 71, section 46A. An increasing number of children, however, are being referred to the division each year through other public and private agencies or interested individuals. During the past year 929 children were reported to the division, 872 of these through the census and 57 through other agencies. The social service departments in many of our hospitals are now reporting children, upon their discharge from the hospital, when it is apparent that they will need special consideration, educationally, as handicapped children. The problems of these children and those referred by interested individuals, we are always willing to take up with the local authorities, and do whatever we can to assist in their solution. Five hundred fifty-eight (558) of the children reported during the year were cripples, while 371 had handicaps such as cardiac disorders, chronic medical conditions, deafness, blindness, epilepsy and mental disorders. Thirty-five (35) of the total number of children reported had a mental handicap and 74 had both a mental and a physical handicap. Three hundred seventy-seven (377) children (208 crippled and 169 otherwise handicapped) were approved for home instruction. It is the policy of the division before approving home instruction to visit the home to make sure that the cripples are receiving appropriate treatment, and that no more adequate program of education can be arranged. In the majority of cases this year, we found that the children were under active medical supervision. In the cases of those who were not receiving needed treatment every effort was made to have treatment begun. Approval 32 P.D. 17. of instruction was withheld in one case, where the child's disability had not been determined, and where it was felt the educational program adopted should be based upon a competent physician's recommendations. The child was referred to a local social agency for the case work necessary to assure medical supervision. In another instance, the school nurse was asked to make frequent visits in a home to supervise the diet and amount of exercise two children were getting. Although the children attended a clinic monthly, the mother seemed unable to regulate their diet and exercise satisfactorily, and was grateful for the nurse's assistance. Two hundred ninety (290) of the children reported, were attending the regular public school classes. Nine (9) others were recommended to return to school with transportation to be provided for four of them. Thirty-four (34) children were receiving care and training in special schools or institutions, such as those for the crippled, the blind, the deaf, or the feeble-minded; and institutional care or hospitalization was recommended for 48 other children. A number of the children now attending school had previously received instruction in their homes but as soon as their physical condition warranted, they were encouraged to return to the classroom; or, when it became apparent that further hospitalization or institutional care was necessary, this was urged. Many of the teachers engaged in instructing these children in their homes have done very creditable work in helping their pupils make happy adjustments in the classroom, or in encouraging parents to decide in favor of the hospitalization recommended. The remaining 62 children reported were classified as follows: 18 were acutely ill and receiving medical attention—9 in hospitals, and 9 in their homes; 4 were receiving private instruction and medical attention; 5 were referred to the Division of Vocational Rehabilitation; 3 children, over 16 years, were temporarily disabled and not in need of further training; 1 was working; 5 were home-bound cripples, over 16 years of age, who were dropped from the home-taught classes as they had received education commensurate to their requirements; 3 were pre-school children who were receiving adequate care at home; 8 had died during the year; and 15 were reported to have moved—6 of whom were located in other Massachusetts cities, 5 were out of the state, and 4 were not located. The value of the annual census with relation to the crippled child becomes more apparent as the work of the division continues. The opportunity which it provides for studying the individual problems of the children over a period of years, cannot be overestimated. While at present with our limited force, there is little opportunity for detailed case work, we do make a determined effort to review the cases each year and give what assistance we can in overcoming new problems as they arise. We had followed one boy over a period of three years, had watched his heroic efforts to adjust himself happily in the public school, and had seen the sacrifice the parents were making in carrying him to and from school every day. This year, when it became clear to the parents that their son was becoming more and more sensitive to his handicap, especially because of his dependence upon others, they were grateful to be able to turn to us for assistance in getting him placed at the Massachusetts Hospital School. Another child, followed for the same length of time, was seen in school and directed to necessary hospital care. Later she was given home instruction over an extended period of convalescence, and finally returned to the regular public school classes prepared to go on with her own class. As we study the problems of the crippled children reported to us, it is apparent that there are certain gaps in the program for the care and education of the crippled in Massachusetts. One of these we believe to be the limitation of the census to children of school age. The interpretation usually put upon the term "school age" is the compulsory age of attendance—seven to sixteen years. There are a sufficient number of cripples, under six or over sixteen years who are in need of assistance, coming to our attention through other agencies, to make us feel that the census should be extended to include all crippled children under twenty-one. Another problem of the crippled child which deserves further consideration, is the matter of transportation for certain cripples to and from school, when the parents cannot provide it. This is an especially acute problem for the cripples who attend the junior and senior high schools. Because these schools are usually centralized it often makes the distance from home to school too great to be travelled by a crippled child who has any marked degree of handicap. 9 34678 847 :4538: : :

Pt. I. 33 Finally, and we believe this to be the most serious gap, there is the problem of adequate care for feeble-minded cripples. Many of these children, it is true, present an utterly hopeless problem mentally and physically. And, it is our experience that the great majority of parents, when they realize the hopelessness of the condition, prefer to care for their children in the home as long as they live. Therefore, when it becomes apparent that a home should be relieved of the care of such a child it is too discouraging to find that months, and sometimes years go by without relief being effected, regardless of the agencies appealed to for assistance chiefly because of the lack of adequate institutional accommodation. There are others whose mental and physical capacities, we believe, could be developed under favorable conditions, at least to the extent that they might become happy, useful members of the household instead of increasing burdens through lack of any training. As we study these children we believe they are as susceptible of education as many of the more physically competent patients in our feeble-minded schools, and because of their physical limitations, they may be returned to the community after a period of training without so great a risk of becoming social menaces. Yet, with our present facilities, these more promising ones must also wait months and years for admission to suitable institutions—those important years when they are most susceptible of training. Tuition of Children under the Care and Control of the Department Under the operation of General Laws, chap. 76, sects. 7 to 10, inclusive, as amended by Statutes of 1921, chaps. 272 and 214, and Statutes of 1930, chap, 290, governing reimbursements by the Commonwealth for tuition and transportation of state wards in public schools, bills received from 237 cities and towns, for the tuition and transportation of 4,994 children, amounting to $326,629.62 — viz., tuition, $301,327.67; transportation, $25,301.95 — were audited by the department and paid by the Treasurer of the Commonwealth during the year ending November 30, 1933. The location of the children was as follows:

DIVISION OF JUVENILE TRAINING Charles M. Davenport, Director (41 Mt. Vernon Street, Boston)

Robert J. Watson, who was for thirteen years Executive Secretary of the Division of Juvenile Training, died on February 13, 1933. By virtue of his legal education and training, his genuine interest in the lives of young people, his industry and his zeal for a high standard of accomplishment, he gave to the Trustees and to the Commonwealth a service of very high value which deserves especial recognition in this report.

On November 30, 1933, the total number of children who were wards of the Trustees of the Massachusetts Training Schools was distributed as follows:

In the On Schools Schools Parole Total

Lyman School for Boys . 409 1,460 1,869 Industrial School for Boys 278 1,231 1,509 Industrial School for Girls 247 676 923

934 3,367 4,301 —

Pi I. 35 The total number in the schools on November 30, 1933, is 124 less than on No- vember 30, 1932. The Board of Trustees held 12 regular meetings and 2 special meetings during the year, in addition to 47 meetings of various committees. A total of 126 separate visits have been made to the three schools by members of the Board of Trustees during the year. In addition to these visits made by the trustees, the executive secretary of the Board visited the three schools 8 times up to the date of his death, February 13, 1933. Boys and girls may be paroled from the training schools at the discretion of the trustees. Applications for parole may be made, either in person or by letter, to the executive secretary of the trustees, who will see that they are acted upon if the boy or girl has been in the training school a reasonable length of time. The average length of stay at the three schools was slightly longer in 1933 than in 1932. Avekage Length of Stay 1932 1933 Lyman School for Boys ..... 12.84 mos. 13.18 mos. Industrial School for Boys .... 8.04 mos. 9.75 mos. Industrial School for Girls .... 18.63 mos. 19.83 mos.

Boys' Parole Branch C. Frederick Gilmore, Superintendent

On November 30, 1933, there were 2,691 boys on parole in the care of this department, 1,460 of whom were on parole from the Lyman School for Boys and 1,231 on parole from the Industrial School for Boys. This represents a net loss of 50 boys. From the Lyman School there were paroled to their own homes or to relatives, 458 boys; paroled to foster homes at wages, 56; paroled to foster homes, at board, 172; a total of 686 boys. From the Industrial School for Boys there were paroled 518 boys; 437 to their own homes, or to relatives, and 81 to foster homes. During the fiscal year 468 boys were returned to the Lyman School for Boys 404 for violation of parole and 64 for relocation and other purposes. Of the above number, 312 were returned from their own homes and 156 were returned from foster homes. During the same period 184 boys were returned to the Industrial School for Boys—159 for violation of parole and 25 for relocation and other purposes. Of the above number, 145 were returned from their own homes and 39 from foster homes. The supervision of boys on parole in foster homes is most important. It is essential that every boy be placed in a foster home where he will do well. In many cases this means trying the boy in several foster homes before finding one best suited for him. Boys paroled to foster homes are those who have no homes, those whose homes are too poor to be considered, and those whose homes, even though good, show lack of proper supervision. Records show that of the 2,691 boys on parole at the time of the last report, about 73 per cent were doing well; 6 per cent were doing fairly well and 6.6 per cent were doing poorly. It has been extremely difficult at times to find work for our wards. This may be readily understood when it is considered that men of experience have been willing to accept the bare necessities of life in return for their labor. Our visitors have spent 1,804 hours in trying to procure work and both free and wage homes for our wards. The Trustees granted honorable discharge to 33 boys on parole from the Lyman School for Boys and 31 on parole from the Industrial School for Boys. These boys had done exceptionally well. Visits: 21,434 visits were made during the year, 9,171 to boys on parole from the Industrial School for Boys and 12,263 to those on parole from the Lyman School for Boys. Investigations: 1,293 home investigations were made, as well as 284 investigations of foster homes. To readjust boys, there were 701 relocations made. 36 P.D. 17. As in the previous year, the wisdom of saving a boy's wages and depositing same in the savings bank for him has been well demonstrated as many young men have been aided over trying circumstances because of these savings. On November 30, 1933, this department held 526 separate bank accounts for boys in its care, with total deposits amounting to $17,692.10.

Girls' Parole Branch Miss Almeda F. Cree, Superintendent

Eight hundred seventy-two (872) girls plus 59 illegitimate babies were supervised by the Girls' Parole Branch during the year, and 676 girls were on parole at the close of the year. In this time of social unrest the necessity of careful parole for the girls removed from the communities, for the special study and training of an institution, was never more manifest. Girls committed to the Industrial School have had very little in their lives of the wholesome example of good parents and intelligent home discipline which help one to face the responsibilities of good citizenship. For this reason they need a long period of training, both in the institution and on parole. To review briefly the background of the 129 girls committed to the Industrial School in 1933 will give a better idea of the land of material committed to the Industrial School, from year to year, for training and education, which will be passed on later to the Parole Department to be readjusted and rehabilitated in the community. Seventy-one (71) girls had immoral or inebriate relatives living in their homes; 25 girls had one or more members of their immediate families in penal institutions; the parents of 29 girls were separated; 37 girls had lost, by death, one parent, and 5 girls had lost, by death, both parents; 24 girls had one step-parent living in the home; 6 girls were adopted; 5 girls were illegitimate; the mothers of 19 girls worked outside the home to eke out a living for their families. This number is much smaller than in previous years, due to unemployment. Consider also some of the unfortunate experiences of the girls, prior to commitment, such as:—107 girls admitted unchastity; 14 girls were expectant mothers; 5 girls had had illegitimate children; 42 girls were known to have had gonorrhea or syphilis and some had both; 53 girls had previous court records; 21 girls had been disciplined in other institutions; 93 girls had been supervised by private or public agencies. The mentality of these 129 girls should also be noted. One hundred and nine (109) girls were given mental examinations before commitment with the following results: 11 per cent of the group were diagnosed as normal; 16.5 per cent were found to be dull normal; 47.7 per cent were reported as borderline, and 24.8 per cent were diagnosed as feeble-minded. No undertaking in the world can be more difficult than that of reforming the misshapen lives of these young girls into those of self-respecting and self-sustaining young women. No adequate statement can be made of the innumerable things which must be considered in placing and supervising a delinquent girl in the community. The general unreliability of our girls, their mental deficiency, and their emotional instability present many difficulties in selecting places which offer possibilities of success. A girl's chances of making good on parole depend not only upon the right selection of a home for her, but upon the watchful care of the visitor, who has to supervise the girl and her employer or boarding woman constantly, or the girl and her relatives in their mutual adjustments. Three hundred twenty-seven (327) girls were in housework positions during the year. Three hundred forty-three (343) foster homes were used 486 times. Seventy (70) girls were paroled from the Industrial School to foster homes for the first time, 72 girls were paroled to homes of relatives for the first time, and 26 girls were paroled to hospitals for the first time. Forty (40) returned girls were paroled to foster homes and 28 returned girls were paroled to their own homes, making a total of 257 girls who were paroled from the Industrial School during the year. Pt. I. 37 The visitors visited their girls 6,942 times during the year. The department interviewed 7,889 persons in doing its year's work. The conduct of all girls (676) on parole on November 30, 1933, classified itself as follows: 376 girls or 56.03 per cent, good; 167 girls or 24.97 per cent, fair; 53 girls or 7.2 per cent unsatisfactory; 80 girls or 11.9 per cent uncertain, as those girls were living out of the state or were runaways and not heard from recently. It may be well to note the mentality of the girls on parole, November 30, 1933. Fifteen (15) per cent of the girls were normal; 1 per cent, super-normal; 47 per cent, dull normal; 21 per cent, borderline; 14 per cent, feeble-minded; 2 per cent, psychopathic personalities. Every encouragement is given to the girls to continue their education. Eighty (80) girls attended school during the year 1933; 37 attended High School; 20 attended Grammar School; 5 attended Primary School and Special Classes; 3 attended Business College; 15 attended Continuation School. Fifty (50) girls remained in school throughout the year. Thirty (30) girls left school for various reasons during the year. Eight (8) were returned to the Indus- trial School; 9 left school to assist their families financially or in the home cares; 2 girls became pregnant; 4 girls ran away; 9 girls graduated from high school, and 2 of them returned for postgraduate courses. Our school girls are a promising group. They work hard to stand well in their classes. They face many discouraging situations, especially when it becomes known that they are on parole from the Industrial School. The school group is much more expensive than formerly because of the small wages and the scaicity of families that will give a school girl a free home in exchange for light duties about the house. Board is paid for many of these girls and all their other expenses are met by the state. Six (6) girls will graduate from high school in June, 1934. They all stand high in scholarship and are ambitious to go forward and fit themselves for work other than housework. One girl plans to attend Business College; another girl wants to take a course in dietetics at the Young Women's Christian Association; a third girl plans to study beauty culture; still another girl desires to be a nurse, training at the Peter Bent Brigham Hospital; one girl aspires to be a kindergarten teacher; and the sixth girl hopes to be able to take up occupational therapy. If they attain these goals they will need to be assisted financially through the Female Wards Trust Fund. They are meritorious wards and deserving of help. The health of our girls is carefully watched. During the year, 356 girls were escorted 1,560 times to hospitals, private doctors, and dentists. There were 103 ward patients. The supervision of girls who have venereal disease makes up a large part of our hospital work, as the hospital requires weekly, and sometimes semi-weekly, treatments for those girls. Frequent trips to the hospital have an unsettling effect on our girls. The employers are not pleased with the idea of giving the girls the extra time, and furthermore the employers are disturbed about having girls in their homes who need so much hospital attention. The total bank savings of 270 girls under twenty-one years of age, on November 30, 1933, amounted to $9,773.31. This total is much smaller than in former years, due to the small wages paid to our wards and to the help which they contributed to their families. The largest account was $325.21. There were five accounts between $200 and $300, and twenty-two accounts between $100 and $200. One hundred and seventy-four (174) girls passed out of the care of the Trustees during the year; honorably discharged, 57; attained majority, 92; committed or transferred to other institutions, 21; died, 3; illegally committed, 1. TOWN PLANNING Edward T. Hartman, Consultant on Planning The year shows but little change in territory covered by planning and zoning activity. No new boards have been established, two have been abolished, a few admit that they are dead. The Orange board was established along with the town manager form of government. The latter was abolished and the board went with it. Nahant reports: ''Each year a planning board was elected at the annual town meeting, but none of them would qualify, so this year the town voted 38 P.D. 17. to abolish the office." The Athol report for the year reads: "No calls made for action. No action taken. No money appropriated. No money expended." Milford reports that "the planning board does not function." A number of boards show new life, and activities are extending into new fields. This is due to the injection of new blood into the boards. In several cases a new member has inquired into the possibilities, has made independent investigations as to conditions, has presented his findings and suggested action, and new work has resulted. If a board has one member with an inquiring mind and a few members who will cooperate, work can usually be started along constructive lines. Once substantially started, work of this kind will usually progress; for there are always problems to be solved and hazards to be anticipated and forestalled. No zoning laws have been abolished and two places, Sharon and Carlisle, have adopted comprehensive zoning. In each case there are new features worthy of note. Sharon established but one business district. It is of sufficient size to meet all needs for some time, and is more likely to give the desired protection to residential areas than the plan proposed, but not adopted, of 50 business districts in one Massachusetts town. It is difficult to see the need of 50 trading centers in a town, mainly residential and rural, and suburban to a city where much of the buying is done. Fifty trading centers in a town of 25 square miles will effectively block any substantial development of high-grade homes, and the result would invariably be high taxes and poor community services. When such a condition begins to show results it generally means a breakdown, which grows worse with accelerating speed. Fifty trading centers in a suburban town is like a face badly pock-marked. It requires an operation to remove each blemish. A third town, Middleton, adopted an elementary form of zoning. Carlisle contributes a new and significant feature in development regulation by limiting lot sizes to a minimum of one acre, with a minimum frontage of 150 feet, and minimum yard widths, front, side, and rear, of 40 feet. Last year we discussed the appropriateness of considering the manifest destiny of a town, the best thing- it can do for itself in the general environment in which it is located. The manifest destiny of Carlisle is residential—gardening—agriculture—grazing. If she adheres to her plan she will surely become one of the most desirable residential towns in the region. Many people are looking, even yearning, for such a town in which to live. The need is great and the chances for such a development are all too few. On the other hand, for all who want a 20-foot lot, on a 30-foot street, amidst billboards, stores and filling stations, the opportunities are abundant and rapidly increasing in the numerous towns adhering to the laissez-faire policy. There are plenty of such chances in zoned, but zoneless, towns, as we shall bring out later. If Carlisle adheres to her plan she will have to fight for a time, for there are always those who seek to exploit such areas. But, again, if she adheres, she will avoid the warty, wen-like, goiterous, cancerous development which too many call growth. It is growth, but why want it?

The Need of Planning Is Being Demonstrated Just now scores of towns are looking for NRA money to give work to their unemployed. But they seldom have any plans at all. Numerous proposals are coming in, some of them involving millions of dollars, but they are mere links in an unstudied system. Many of these proposals have but one justification, they would employ men. When a town can't show that there may be a reasonable return for money spent it should not spend money. An error in administrative law may do but little damage, for the people can ignore it. But an item of planning, once carried out, either serves or fails to serve. It it fails to fit into a general scheme of development, it doesn't function and the town has to hobble along or do the work over again at terrific cost. Even as this is being written word comes from Washington saying, in effect, "We learn you have no plans. Therefore we will consider the preparation of plans as proper work under the C. W. A." So much do the authorities think of planning. They will finance no enterprise based on no plan; they will first finance the plan. Some places may get going early enough to get financed development from financed plans. Most places will get nothing. Pt. I. 39 Planning Boaed Activities

Legislation After two years' work the recess committee presented new enabling laws covering municipal planning and zoning, and a state planning board. Only the zoning enabling law was passed. Chapter 269, Acts of 1933. The failure of the planning bills gave the movement a serious set-back. It leaves the municipalities and the state very much handicapped. The board of survey work should be in the hands of planning boards, there should be definite subdivision control, and local authorities should be empowered to require in all new streets, opened for residential development, the services essential to health and safety. If these services are not required, over-development results, and municipalities face bankruptcy if they provide services for a scattered development. There is no reason why towns should thus bear the chief cost of unwise and harmful land speculation. Almost every place already has laid out more undeveloped lots than it has developed lots. Towns are bleeding themselves white in order to keep land developers active doing wasteful and unnecessary things. A state planning board is much needed. Its first studies should be to find the best social use to which land may be put. At once this is needed for housing proposals. Homes should not be built where the best set-up would locate business or industry. The converse is true, and more mistakes are being made on this side. This would be but the beginning of studies for land utilization for the entire state. A state master plan would follow. Each step actually taken would thus become part of a comprehensive whole. Enormous savings would result, efficiency would be promoted. While all industries are demonstrating the wisdom of planning, we should be able to see that no state, county or town can afford not to plan.

At the end of the fiscal year there were 3,097 persons in the institution, 155 less than the previous year. The largest daily census was 3,356 on February 17, the largest in the history of the institution, and an increase of 104 over 1932. The smallest daily census was 2,825 on July 10, being 36 more than in 1932. There were 501 deaths. Of the 6,433 cases cared for during the year, 6,185 were in the general hospital wards; of which 4,568 were males and 1,617 were females. Of this number 1,651 were discharged well, 699 were improved, 870 not improved, 463 died, and 2,502 remained in the hospital at the end of the year. Of the number cared for in the hospital, there were 408 cases of tuberculosis, 25 of epilepsy, 115 of alcoholism, 5 of erysipelas, 17 of influenza and 1 of measles. Among the 463 deaths there were 84 due to tuberculosis of the lungs; 61 to cancer; 71 to diseases of the heart; 121 to arteriosclerosis; 20 to pneumonia; 5 to chronic nephritis, 2 to enteritis, and 2 to spinal cord disorders. In the tuberculosis wards, the number of patients treated, 408, shows a slight increase compared with 397 cases the previous year. There were classed as minimal, 33; moderately advanced, 118; far advanced, 245. Of the number admitted, 324 were in the men's department and 84 in the women's department. There were 217 cases discharged; 69 relieved, 66 not relieved and 82 died—65 males and 17 females. In the non-pulmonary group there were 22 cases: 18 male and 4 female. To the treatment of pulmonary tuberculosis which in former years consisted of rest, fresh air and diet, the use of artificial pneumothorax has been added, with 91 treatments for 12 patients. Mercury vapor lamps and heliotherapy have also been used in the treatment of the non-pulmonary group. In the men's hospital, relief from the overcrowded condition which existed was obtained by converting one of the wards on the main floor of the men's house into a convalescent ward, with a capacity of 69 beds, bringing the total numbei of hospital beds to 673. This is an increase of 103 beds but is, however, inadequate to the midwinter demands. A total of 2,732 male patients were admitted to the receiving ward in this department for examination, classification and transfer to the other wards. A total of 171 major operations were performed, an increase of 44 over the preceding year; also 110 minor operations. Twenty-eight (28) orthopedic operations were performed with very satisfactory results. Braces and arch supports were supplied to 31 cases, a total of 136 patients being seen in the orthopedic clinic, many of whom have been returned to the community to become self- supporting, after years of disability. 42 P.D. 17. The eye, ear and nose consultant has visited the institution on an average of once a month, seeing a total of 112 cases with 16 operations and 75 refractions done. The clinic for the treatment of varicose veins continues to produce satisfactory results. The average weekly attendance was 10 patients. This work has proved to be particularly effective in hastening the healing of ulcers, which have existed for years in manjr cases. The number of male patients under treatment for venereal diseases has increased considerably; 115 patients with gonorrhea were treated, in comparison with 94 the previous year. One hundred thirty-five (135) male cases of syphilis received antiluetic treatment. In the women's hospital, the work consists of innumerable general medical treatments: the bulk of the work has been in caring for cases of cardiac and arthritic conditions and malignancy, also many pediatric cases, infant feeding and the infectious diseases. There were a total of 807 admissions, and 861 discharges, including 114 deaths. At the end of the year there were 1,017 remaining in the hospital. In the maternity departments there have been 172 births, 92 males and 80 females. Nine (9) were still-born. In the women's surgical clinic there were 87 major operations performed. In the nose and throat clinic for women there were 28 operations performed. In the venereal clinic for women there were 140 cases of syphilis treated and 137 cases of gonorrhea. In accordance with the administrative policy, no patients were committed to

the department for mental diseases ; there were no admissions by transfer and but one readmission. There were 40 deaths in this department, 14 male and 26 female. Eleven (11) were discharged from the books, 4 males and 7 females; 4 women were improved and the remainder unimproved. An increase of 8 deaths is noted in comparison with the previous year. The deaths from tuberculosis in this department were 5. During the j^ear 47 patients of the general hospital department, 40 men and 7 women, were committed as insane by the Lowell Court to other state hospitals. Many cases in the general hospital department were studied in reference to mental illness, and about 75 young women, many of these sexual delinquents, were given psychometric examinations. Twelve young delinquents were studied in the Lowell Court. At the close of 1933 there were 605 patients under treatment in this department, compared with 788 in 1929. This decrease is due to the fact that no more transfers are being made to this institution. As in previous years, every effort has been made to keep as many patients occupied as possible, and a daily average of 76 men and 219 women were kept at some form of productive work. The dental department is a busy place: 1,731 chair patients; 2,126 extractions, in addition to much laboratory work, treatments, etc. Occupational therapy at the institution has been extended during the year. An average of 114 patients, monthly, has been treated. Thirty-three (33) in the central workshop, 31 in the men's hospital, 30 in the women's hospital and 20 in the mental department. The industrial activities, reorganized and removed to the newly constructed industrial building, show a marked increase in the unusually large amount of industrial work accomplished. Some of the larger and special items are listed as follows: bedspreads, 150 dozen; pillows, 877; overalls, 24 dozen; shirting, 7,085 yards; toweling, 21,165 yards; bath robes, 57 dozen; laundry bags, 190 dozen; mattresses, 841; shoes, 660 pairs; pillow slips, 739 dozen; sheets, 844 dozen; towels, 2,440 dozen; women's aprons, 287 dozen; women's dresses, 247 dozen. A gain in the amount of farm produce is shown, which includes the following items: beef and veal, 18,148 lbs.; poultry, 11,000 lbs.; pork, 75,176 lbs.; milk, 1,300,000 lbs.; eggs, 19,600 dozen; ensilage and fodder, 840 tons; green feed, 260 tons; alfalfa and hay, 485 tons; apples, 150,000 lbs.; and smaller fruit, 18,000 lbs.; potatoes and other root crops, 6,450 bushels; squash, 5,500 lbs.; sweet corn, 38,800 lbs.; cabbages and cauliflower, 102,400 lbs.; and other green vegetables, 92,000 lbs. The dairy herd of 213 head of accredited Holstein stock consists of 120 cows, 40 heifers, 48 calves and 5 bulls. Pt. I. 43 A satisfactory gain has been shown, placing this herd on the honor roll by the National Dairy Association for the seventh year. Innumerable repairs and improvements have been made in all parts of the institution, likewise much new equipment and some small buildings. With an appropriation of $925,100 plus $30,800.98 brought forward from balance of 1932, the total amount available for maintenance was $955,900.98. Of this amount $912,342.68 was expended. Of the amount expended $442,157.28 was for salaries, wages and labor; $470,185.40 for all other expenses. Net weekly per capita cost of maintenance, $5,691. Total receipts from all sources other than the State treasury, $125,449.48. Net cost of maintenance to the Commonwealth, $786,893.20. Ratio of daily average number of persons employed to daily average number of inmates, 6.0. The trustees estimated the sum of $998,427 for maintenance in 1934.

44 P.D. 17. Of the 657 cases cared for during the year, 357 were discharged,—282 from hospital care and 75 from the school. There have been admitted 348 children 292 to the hospital and 56 to the school. There remained at the close of the year, 271 crippled and deformed children in the school and 29 sick minor wards in the hospital. The average age of all children admitted to the school department during the year was 11 years, 1 month and 4 days; the youngest child admitted was 1 month and 28 days, while the oldest was 19 years, 8 months and 23 days. Of the 348 children admitted during the year, 308 were born in Massachusetts; while 30, or 8.6 per cent, were born in other parts of the United States; 5, or 1.4 per cent, were born in foreign countries, while the nativity of 4 was unknown. Eighty-six (86) fathers and 147 mothers were born in Massachusetts; 48 fathers and 41 mothers were born in other parts of the United States, whije 128 fathers and 120 mothers were foreign born and the nativity of 85 fathers and 39 mothers was unknown. Of the 75 orthopedic school cases who were discharged, twenty received diplomas of the school. One of the graduates is going on in the Industrial School high school course in Boston; several others are doing well in public high schools, and others are continuing vocational work at this school. At the Bradford Infirmary 240 surgical operations were performed by members of the resident and consulting staff. As a routine practice the dental hygienist examined the mouth of each child on an average of every 3 months and has given prophylactic treatment in 1,124 cases during the year. One thousand six hundred ninety-five (1,695) dental operations were performed. Educational activities and the responsibilities of the teaching staff are definitely separated from the medical and nursing service. Yet each must be co-ordinated at many points and adjustments also made to harmonize our efforts for the welfare of the children with their parents and with the community. The solution of many inter-departmental and community problems has been found through social service which has maintained its place as one of the most important branches of the work. A total of 285 different pupils have been registered in the school during the year with an average of almost 95 per cent of attendance. An annual census of all crippled children of school age, required by the Acts of 1930, makes it possible to obtain scientific and practical classification of all crippled children in the Commonwealth. The visitation of such children by an expert from the State Department of Public Welfare gives us an easy access to a very complete record of each crippled child. For the last two years the attention of the Trustees has been called to the advis- ability at an early date of connecting the institution with the Metropolitan Sewer System, thus doing away with our filtration sewage beds. In October, 1933, the citizens of Canton petitioned the Emergency Public Works Board for allocation of sufficient funds for the construction by the Board of a sewer for the Massachusetts Hospital School, leading from said school to the present town sewer. This was approved by the Emergency Public Works Board and later by His Excellency, the Governor, for the expenditure of $60,589, without cost- to the town. This appears to be an equitable solution of a much needed project. In response to an invitation from the Emergency Public Works Board, our Trustees submitted recommendations for erection, as soon as conditions would permit, of a new 30-bed cottage for girls and also a duplicate of the Ellis Cottage for boys. These two projects carry an appropriation of $1 15,000 under the National Industrial Recovery Act. It now seems probable that the recommendations will be approved so that construction may begin early in the new year. From our farm there have been 120,353 quarts of Guernsey milk produced; 10,217 dozen eggs, 6,5413/2 pounds of dressed poultry, and 12,085 pounds dressed pork. With an appropriation of $173,360, plus $1,464.22 brought forward from balance of 1932, the total amount available for maintenance was $175,824.22. Of this amount, $169,024.56 was expended. Of the amount expended, $109,214.70 was for salaries, wages and labor; $59,809.86 for all other expenses. Net weekly per capita cost of maintenance, $10.74. Total receipts from all sources other than the State treasury, $70,081.28. Net cost of maintenance to the Commonwealth, Pt. I. 45 $98,943.28. Ratio of daily average number of persons employed to daily average number of inmates, 2.6. The trustees estimated the sum of $171,534.50 for maintenance in 1934.

from the school, 1 ; from hospitals, 23. The average length of stay in school of all girls was 1 year, 7 months and 25 days. Of the 268 girls released from the school during the year, 88 were released on parole to parents or relatives; on parole to parents to attend school, 12; on parole to other families for wages, 102; on parole to other families to attend school, 8; to attend court, 2; for funeral, 6; ran from Industrial School for Girls, 3; transferred to hospitals, 32; committed to Belchertown State School, 1; committed to Depart- ment of Defective Delinquents, 8; committed to Walter E. Fernald State School,

1 ; committed to Wrentham State School, 1; transferred to Reformatory for Women, 3; discharged, illegal commitment, 1. Of the 129 girls committed to the school, 126 were born in the United States and 3 in other countries. The newly committed girl receives special attention—is interviewed by the superintendent, given a thorough examination in the school hospital and sent to the receiving cottage where she is studied, tested and helped until she has become acquainted and adjusted to the routine life of the school. After a two months' stay in the receiving cottage, where she has begun her initial training, she is transferred to one of the training cottages and the regular work of the school begins. Various household duties are assigned, among which is the care of her own private room, and she is entered at the general school building to be placed in a grade where she can meet the requirements. The academic work has had as its basis the fundamental requirements of the public schools. At the same time consideration in the planning of the courses of 48 P.D. 17. study has been given the girl who is to be returned to the school in the community, and the girl who will not have further opportunity to attend school. Moreover, special provision has been made in all grades below the eighth for instruction in mathematics and English, where this is most conspicuously needed. All primary and intermediate grades are represented in the school and a commercial course is provided for pupils of the first three years of high school. The entire school curriculum is based on the sincere desire to meet the needs of the girls in as broad and worth-while a way as possible. The year 1933 has marked the continuance of the plan for half-time academic work and half-time hand work. Extra time in the academic department, however, has been given to young children, to a few children of foreign-born parents who needed special help, and to certain high school pupils to whom extra time so spent was an advan- tage. The main purpose of the school is character building — the formation of habits in self-control and stability, and a better understanding of spiritual values, in order that the individual may become better adjusted and acquire an ability to cope with present social conditions. This is a slow process—a gradual growth. To accomplish this purpose, the school plans to give the girl wholesome activities, both of work and play, to maintain constant and untiring effort in the maintenance of high standards, to study intimately the ability and interests of the individual girl, to make provision and opportunity for individual responsibility, and to discover the girl's real difficulties—the keynote of the whole problem. The handwork department offers excellent training in sewing, including dress- making and embroidery, basketry, rug-making, and chair caning. Elementary sewing is required, but other than that, the type of work given depends on the individual. Special thought is being devoted to this subject at present due to the increased need and value of leisure time interests, more especially as many girls are not "book-minded", and have so few resources within themselves. The gymnasium is now in use practically the entire day, including evenings, when a schedule of basket ball is played by the various cottages. The work of grading the athletic field has been completed, and a community playground made available for outdoor volley-ball, tennis courts, etc. The farm production for 1933 compared favorably with that of other years. The supply of small fruit was normal with a good yield of apples. Potatoes and other vegetables were produced, sufficient to cover the requirements of the institution. Milk and butter were furnished by the dairy; 900 dozen eggs and 1,000 pounds of chicken by the poultry department; 17,300 pounds of pork was dressed. Three hundred fifty (350) bushels of potatoes and 8 barrels of salt pork were sold through the State Purchasing Bureau to other institutions. Eighty (80) cords of wood were cut. From an appropriation of $130,250 a total of $121,698.72 was expended for maintenance of this institution. Of the amount expended, $66,430.27 was for salaries, wages and labor; all other expenses, $55,268.45. Weekly per capita cost of maintenance, computed on expense less sales and refunds from maintenance, $7.80. Total receipts from all sources other than the State treasury, $1,061.83. Net cost of maintenance to the Commonwealth, $120,636.89. Ratio of daily average number of persons employed to daily average number of inmates, 1 to 3.8. The trustees estimate that $132,879 will be necessary for maintenance in 1934. SUPERVISION OF INSTITUTIONS

In the matter of financial supervision, the Department examines and analyzes institution expenditures, keeping constantly in mind the function of the institution and the relation of its business to the care, education, and welfare of the inmates. The following tables are designed to show in detail the financial condition of each institution.

Capacity, Population and Inventory Table I gives in brief a statistical representation of the size and value of the five institutions under the supervision of the Department. Part I deals with the number of persons served by the institutions. Part II deals with the value of the property. Pt. I. 49

Pt. I. 55 THE COUNTY TRAINING SCHOOLS

Under the provisions of General Laws, chapter 77, section 2, the five county training schools for truants and habitual school offenders are subject to the visitation of this Department, which is required to report thereon in its annual report. The names of the schools and the Superintendents are as follows:

Essex County Training School, Lawrence, W. Grant Fancher Hampden County Training School, Springfield (Feeding Hills), William H. McGarry Middlesex County Training School, North Chelmsford, J. Earl Wolton * Norfolk. Bristol and Plymouth Union Training School, Walpole, James H. Craig Worcester County Training School, Oakdale (West Boylston), Alton W. Peirce

Table I shows the trend of the population in the County Training Schools during the past five years.

Table II shows the numbers and the movement of the population in these institutions for the fiscal year ending December 31, 1933, and also the average weekly per capita cost of maintenance, $14.49, subtracting all receipts from private sources. As will be seen from Table II there were 373 children in the five schools during 1933. The year opened with 217. In the succeeding twelve months 157 were admitted and 158 were discharged, leaving 216. The average age of the children at the time of their admittance was thirteen years, six months, ten days. Every child must be discharged, by requirements of the statute, upon reaching the age of sixteen.

LICENSED BOARDING HOMES FOR AGED PERSONS Francis Bardwell, Supervisor Under section 22A of chapter 121 of the General Laws, which provides that "whoever maintains a home in which three or more persons over the age of sixty years, and not members of his immediate family are provided with care, incident to advanced age, shall be deemed to maintain a boarding home for aged persons," this department is delegated to issue licenses and to make, alter and amend rules and regulations for the government of such homes. During the year ending November 30, 1933, 55 applications for licenses were received; 56 licenses were issued; 13 licenses were renewed, and 35 licenses were cancelled. There are at present 250 licenses in force in 84 cities and towns, as follows

The Department found it necessary to issue orders in twelve homes to have patients over sixty removed from the third floor. In five homes there were found to be patients behind locked doors. These locks were removed by order of the Department. Five complaints regarding boarding homes for the aged have been received and thoroughly investigated. Some of these were found to be justified and warnings have been issued to the license holders. The local building authorities cooperate by inspecting and approving buildings to be used for convalescent homes. We do not grant a license unless the home meets with the requirements of the local building authorities. The Department maintains an index of homes by localities, prices, and names of persons maintaining these licensed places. This has been found helpful to many people as well as to local welfare boards. The homes range in price from $7 a week to over $100 a week. During the year 792 visits were made to the homes. SUPERVISION OF THE SETTLED POOR RELIEVED OR SUPPORTED BY CITIES AND TOWNS

General Laws, chapter 117, sections 3, 36, 37 and 38, and chapter 121, section 16, provide that the Department of Public Welfare may visit and inspect all places where city or town poor are supported in families, and require the Department to visit, at least once a year, not only all children who are maintained by the Com- monwealth, but all minor children who are supported at the expense of any city or town. Children illegally retained in city or town infirmaries must be removed therefrom and placed at board at the expense of the city or town concerned.

The Settled Adult Poor Provided for in Families Of the 411 adult persons reported by local authorities as fully supported in families on January 1, 1933, 38 had died, and 47 had been removed before visits were made. The remaining 326—195 men and 131 women—were all visited and reported on by the Department's agents. They were supported bj' 129 cities and towns as follows

Their ages were as follows : 9 between 21 and 30 ; 8 between 30 and 40 ; 21 between 40 and 50; 54 between 50 and 60; 93 between 60 and 70; 89 between 70 and 80; 46 between 80 and 90; and 2 were unknown. For their support there was paid in 15 cases from $2 to $3 per week; in 41 cases feeble from $3 to $4 per week ; in 270 cases—mostly of old and persons—the rate varied from $4 to $18 per week according to the amount of care required. Of the whole number, 205 were reported to be in good or fairly good physical condition, and 292 in good or fairly good mental condition. In all cases they were apparently receiving good care. There were 80 able to do light work either in the house or about the premises. In 168 cases, according to the reports the members of the local board of public welfare complied with the law requiring them to visit these persons at least once in every six months; in 69 cases they were visited once during the year; and in 80 cases they were not visited at all. Dependent Minor Children with Settlement Provided for in Infirmaries Visits were made to 118 children—59 boys and 59 girls—reported to be cared for by the following cities and towns in their infirmaries:

Andover, 1 Fall River, 10 Maiden, 4 Northbridge, 1 Attleboro, 2 Gardner, 1 Methuen, 1 Somerville, 1 Boston, 55 Haverhill, 1 Monson, 1 Springfield, 22 Charlton, 1 Holyoke, 7 North Adams, 1 Stoneham, 1 Dedham, 1 Lowell, 1 North Attleborough, Worcester, 4 In addition to this number 20 had been removed from the infirmaries before the time of visitation and 1 had died. Of the number visited, 58 were so defective in either mind or body as to make their retention in an infirmary desirable. Dependent Minor Children with Settlement Provided for Outside Infirmaries As shown by the department's visitation of the 2,105 children reported by the authorities as fully supported outside the infirmaries on January 1, 1933, and July 1, 1933, 283 had been removed before visits could be made, 1 had died, and 12 were supporting themselves.

Total, $1,151. The following towns have not as yet completed their returns: Freetown, Prince- ton, Worcester, Boston. RECOMMENDATIONS FOR LEGISLATION

The Commissioner of Public Welfare made three recommendations for legislation this year. These recommendations were forwarded to the Secretary of the Commonwealth on December 6, 1933, in accordance with the provisions of section 33 of chapter 30 of the General Laws. The recommendations were as follows:

I. Relative to the Interstate Transportation of Poor and Indigent Persons Because States have such different laws in regard to the length of time during which a person must have resided to gain a legal settlement, many conflicts arise between Massachusetts and other States as to which is responsible for the care of persons who are in need. Some States require a five-year period of residence, others a three-year period, and others a one-year period. In order to settle these disputes and to insure better care for the families who are affected by them, the Committee on Interstate Problems of the American Public Welfare Association is endeavoring to secure the passage in all States of statutes giving to the state departments of public welfare the authority to enter into agreements relative to this matter. These agreements are based upon a period of residence within and absence from the State. Laws similar to the bill here proposed have already been enacted in New Hampshire, Maine and Con- necticut. In order to make the agreements effective, the duty of transporting and of receiving families must be centralized in the state departments of public welfare. If it continues to be left to each city and town to send persons to cities and towns in other States, there can be no amicable relations between the States, and many controversies arise based upon the action of local boards. For this reason the bill gives to the state department the authority to arrange with local boards of public welfare for the acceptance and support of persons under the reciprocal agreements made with other States.

II. Relative to Aid furnished to Certain Poor Persons The Temporary Aid Law, under which the Commonwealth reimburses cities and towns for aid furnished to persons with no legal settlement, requires that the cities and towns shall give five days' notice to this Department when they begin ——— —— —

Pt. I, 59 to aid a family. This bill proposes to increase the period of notice from five days to ten days. This period of ten days has worked satisfactorily in the case of Mothers' Aid. This bill would make both laws consistent with each other in this respect, and we believe that in operation the result would be more satisfactory.

III. Relative to False Representations to Boards of Public Welfare The law which penalizes a person for making false representations to a board of public welfare for the sake of securing aid applies only to written misrepresentations. It seems desirable to make this law more inclusive and include any knowing and wilful misrepresentations, whether written or oral. We recommend that the word "written'' be omitted from the statute. LAWS AFFECTING THE DEPARTMENT PASSED BY THE LEGISLATURE OF 1933 Chap. 181 An Act Authorizing Local Boards of Public Welfare to Aid Needy Persons in the Cultivation of Vegetable Gardens Whereas, The deferred operation of this act would tend to defeat its purpose, therefore it is hereby declared to be an emergency law, necessary for the immediate preservation of the public convenience. Chapter one hundred and seventeen of the General Laws, as appearing in the Tercentenary Edition thereof, is hereby amended by inserting after section two the following new section: Section 2A. The board of public welfare may, subject to such conditions and terms as it may prescribe, furnish any such poor and indigent person applying therefor with seeds, plants, fertilizer and tools to cultivate vege-

table gardens of their own. [Ay-proved May 11 , 1933] Chap. 219. An Act Relative to Eligibility for Old Age Assistance Whereas, The deferred operation of this act would tend to defeat its purpose, therefore it is hereby declared to be an emergency law, necessary for the immediate preservation of the public convenience. Section one of chapter one hundred and eighteen A of the General Laws, as appearing in the Tercentenary Edition thereof, is hereby amended by striking out, in the fourth line, the words "arrival at such age" and inserting in place thereof the words:—the date of application for such assistance,—so as to read as follows:

Section 1 . Adequate assistance to deserving citizens in need of relief and support seventy years of age or over who shall have resided in the Commonwealth not less than twenty years immediately preceding the date of application for such assistance, subject to such reasonable exceptions as to continuity of residence as the department of public welfare, in this chapter called the department, may determine by rules hereinafter authorized, shall be granted under the supervision of the department. Such assistance shall, wherever practicable, be given to the aged person in his own home or in lodgings or in a boarding home, and it shall be sufficient to provide such suitable and dignified care. No person receiving assistance hereunder shall be deemed to be a pauper by reason thereof. [Approved May 26, 1933.] Chap. 285. An Act Providing for Appeals by Persons Aggrieved by Failure of Cities and Towns to Render Old Age Assistance Chapter one hundred and eighteen A of the General Laws is hereby amended by inserting after section two, as appearing in the Tercentenary Edition thereof, the following new section: Section 2A. Any person aggrieved by the failure of any town to render assistance under this chapter shall have a right of appeal to a board composed of the superintendent of old age assistance in the department, the director of the division of aid and relief and a member of the advisory board of the department designated by the commissioner of public welfare, which board shall forthwith make a thorough investigation and determine whether or not financial assistance should be rendered, which determination shall be final. [Ap- proved June 23, 1933] Chap. 328. An Act Further Regulating the Granting of Old Age Assistance Whereas, The deferred operation of this act would tend to defeat its purpose, therefore it is hereby declared to be an emergency law, necessary for the immediate preservation of the public convenience. — —

60 P.D. 17. Chapter one hundred and eighteen A of the General Laws, as most recently amended in section one by chapter two hundred and nineteen of the acts of the current year, is hereby further amended by striking out said section one and in-

: serting in place thereof the following Section 1 . Adequate assistance to deserving citizens in need of relief and support seventy years of age or over who shall have resided in the commonwealth not less than twenty years immediately preceding the date of application for such assistance, subject to such reasonable exceptions as to continuity of residence as the department of public welfare, in this chapter called the department, may determine by rules hereinafter authorized, shall be granted under the supervision of the department. Financial assistance granted hereunder shall be given from the date of application therefor, but in no event before the applicant reaches the age of seventy, and in determining the amount of assistance to be given for any period preceding the date on which the application was favorably passed upon, consideration shall be given to the amount of welfare relief, if any, given to such applicant during said period under any other provision of law. Such assistance shall, wherever practicable, be given to the aged person in his own home or in lodgings or in a boarding home, and it shall be sufficient to provide such suitable and dignified care. No person receiving assistance hereunder shall be deemed to be a pauper by reason thereof. [Approved July 17, 1933.]

Supervisors Miss Florence G. Dickson Miss Alice M. McIntire Miss Mary C. Robinson

Government supervision of private charitable corporations is provided in three legislative enactments, the first of which requires the Department of Public Welfare to investigate all applications for charitable charters, while the second and third call for annual inspection and annual reporting. In the following pages of this part of the report the functions of the department and the year's work under these several statutes are explained. This statement is followed by a tabulation of some of the essential figures showing the financial condition and the number of persons aided by the various charities.

Investigation of Charitable Organizations Seeking Incorporation

During the year ending November 30, 1933, 54 applications for charters have been referred to this department by the Secretary of the Commonwealth for investigation under General Laws (Tercentenary Edition), chapter 180, section 6. In 11 cases the applications were withdrawn from this department before the hearing and in 1 case the application was withdrawn from this department after the hearing. Two (2) cases are pending action of the Secretary of State at the end of the year. Four (4) cases are pending action of this department at the end of the year. This department has investigated, given hearings and reported on 39 applications, including 5 received prior to the beginning of the year. Thirty-eight (38) applications as listed below have been acted upon by the Secretarjr of the Commonwealth.

Inspection of Charitable Corporations

General Laws (Tercentenary Edition), chapter 121, section 7, requires the Department of Public Welfare, upon the request or with the consent of a charitable corporation, to make annual inspection or investigation of such corporation. One hundred two (102) inspections have been made during the past year involving numerous conferences with directors and many visits to institutions. There have been 779 inquiries in regard to particular charities and general matters connected with the field of private charity.

Number and Classification of Incorporated Charities in Massachusetts Of the 1,245 charitable corporations which made returns to this department during 1933, 123 are homes for the aged; 142 are child-helping agencies; 251 are hospitals or other institutions for aiding the sick; 135 are agencies giving family aid; and 200 are organizations doing community, neighborhood or club work. The remaining 394 corporations form a miscellaneous group chiefly civic or elee- mosynary in their nature.

Annual Reports of Charitable Corporations General Laws (Tercentenary Edition), chapter 180, section 12, provides that every charitable corporation must make to this department an annual financial return on or before the first day of November in each year, and further provides that if any corporation fails for two successive years to make the report, the Supreme Court may decree its dissolution. Figures from the financial reports of corporations for the last year are given on the following pages. The abstracts are arranged by towns in alphabetical order under each town. An analysis of the returns made in 1933 showed the total property, real and personal, of all these charities to be $356,537,430. Subscriptions and donations, including gifts restricted to capital, brought in $16,174,764. Earnings and refunds, including receipts from beneficiaries, amounted to $21,889,099. Interest, dividends, annuities and rentals brought in $9,680,639. Legacies were received to the amount of $4,169,400; of this sum $2,176,908 was unrestricted. The current receipts were $48,665,654. The current expenditures were $46,812,867 of which $19,698,760 was paid for salaries and wages. The agencies reported 21,076 paid employees.

Endorsement of Private Charitable Organizations The Department of Public Welfare endorses no private charitable organization or agency. This rule is absolute, regardless of the known standing of any such society. Inspection and the publication of the annual return in this volume do not mean approval; on the contrary, inspection may mean the discovery of conditions calling for condemnation. No agency is warranted, therefore, in using the fact of inspection in such manner as to lead the public to believe that the department approves or in any sense commends its work.

Francis Bardwell, Supervising Inspector of Infirmaries

Laws Relating to Infirmaries (General Laws, Chapter 47: Tercentenary Edition)

For the information of boards of public welfare, superintendents of infirmaries and others concerned, certain laws relating to infirmaries are here summarized. The Department of Public Welfare is required to visit annually all city and town infirmaries, and to include in its annual report a statement of their condition and management, with its suggestions and recommendations relative thereto. (Gen- eral Laws, ch. 121, sect. 7.) The superintendent of every infirmary must keep a register, in the form prescribed by the Department of Public Welfare, of the names of the persons received or committed, the cities or towns to which they belong, and the dates of their reception and discharge. (General Laws, ch. 47, sect. 8.) Every inmate of an infirmary able to work shall be kept diligently employed in labor. If he is idle and does not perform such reasonable task as is assigned, or if he is stubborn and disorderly, he shall be punished according to the orders and regulations established by the directors. (General Laws, ch. 117, sects. 21 and 22. See also opinion of Attorney-General given to State Board of Charity, November 21, 1904.) The only children who can be lawfully supported in a city or town infirmary for a period of more than two months are: (1) those who are so defective in body or mind as to make their retention in an infirmary desirable; (2) those who are under two years of age; and (3) those who are under three years of age, with mothers who are infirmary inmates and suitable persons to aid in taking care of them. In cases of failure of boards of public welfare to remove children illegally in infirmaries, the Department of Public Welfare is required to remove them and provide for them otherwise, at the expense of the city or town concerned. (General Laws, ch. 117, sects. 36-38.) Provision is made that tramps and vagrants, as well as criminals, shall be con- fined in separate and distinct quarters in all infirmaries and shall not be permitted to associate or communicate with other inmates. It should be noted also that tramps and vagrants, if physically able, shall perform labor of some kind, and shall be lodged under conditions prescribed by the State Department of Public Health. (General Laws, ch. 117, sect. 20.) The Department of Public Welfare is authorized to advise with and assist local boards of public welfare in preparation of plans for infirmarv buildings. (General Laws, ch. 121, sect. 38.)

Inspection of Infirmaries As required by law, every infirmary has been visited once by the Department's inspector. Four have been visited twice. Conferences have been held with various municipal officers—mayors of cities, local boards of public welfare, and special committees—and architects concerning matters of importance relative to the management and administration of infirmaries or for the discussion of improvements or new construction. There are in Massachusetts 121 infirmaries which cared for 13,200 inmates during the past municipal year.

Infirmaries Closed Due to the fact that the infirmary at East Bridgewater was partially destroyed by fire, the inmates were removed and the house closed for repairs. Because of a lack of funds the repairs are being held up and the inmates are being cared for in the infirmary at Middleborough and in the home of the former warden and matron. Pt. III. 121 The infirmary at Groveland has been permanently closed because there is no longer a need for it. Construction — New and Contemplated Charlton — Plans have been drawn for an addition, as even with the new wing for men recently built there is need for additional room. Chicopee — Plans are being made to put on an additional wing to accommodate hospital patients and also to provide a dining room for the inmates. There is also a feeling that because of the age of the present buildings it might be wiser perhaps to erect a new institution. Springfield — The supervising inspector met with the Board of Public Welfare of Springfield to discuss plans either for future improvement and enlargement of the present infirmary or for the construction of a new institution. Recommendations Made

Charlton — It is recommended that the child now in the infirmary be provided for elsewhere. Fairhaven — That one of the inmates be examined by physicians to determine whether or not she should be committed to a hospital. Gloucester — Again recommend that the infirmary be improved for the safety of the inmates as it now presents a great fire hazard. Marblehead — That one of the inmates be examined by two physicians to determine whether or not he is committable. Methuen — Again recommend that other provisions be made for inmates who are on the third floor as there is inadequate egress from the house. New Bedford — That two of the inmates be examined by physicians for possible commitment for observation.

STATISTICS OF POOR RELIEF Numbers Relieved The following information covers public relief, whether rendered in institutions or outside, and aid rendered bj^ all public agencies, whether State or local. The table given below is arranged to show numbers relieved and their analysis by those aided in institutions and outside. The tabulations are concluded by figures for cost of all relief. Table I shows the number supported or relieved by the several cities and towns during the year beginning April 1, 1932, and ending March 31, 1933. In addition to this number are 4,927 aided in State institutions. All persons are included, regardless of settlement. The total number receiving aid in any form, exclusive of vagrants and wayfarers, was 580,621. Of this number, 20,417 were aided in institutions; 560,204 outside, either in private families or in their own homes. Of the persons aided in institutions, 9,791 were relieved in the various city and town infirmaries, leaving 10,626 who were cared for in other institutions. It should be noted that certain cities which have city hospitals have not reported persons aided therein under "poor relief". To include these would add approximately 45,000 to the persons aided in "other institutions." Of the outside aid, 13,880 cases were aided in private families other than their own, while 546,324 were reported as having been aided in their own homes. This last figure comprises practically all city and town aid usually known as local public outdoor relief, including that under Chapter 118 of the General Laws. There is an increase of 5,294 over the preceding year in the number aided in institutions, and an increase of 167,658 in the number aided outside, 20,412 being Old Age Assistance cases. Tables II to XI, the analyses of data in regard to the individuals aided, which have been printed in previous years, are omitted this year foi the following reasons: It has seemed to us unwise to require each year during the depression that cities and towns send us the names and social statistics of all persons aided because of unemployment. A sufficient indication of the facts about this group is contained in the Annual Report for the year ending November 30, 1932. Since that time the burden upon cities and towns and upon this Department in collecting and tabulating these statistics has become so heav}' that it creates an unjustifiable expense to attempt to analyze each family eveiy year. Cost of Poor Relief The funds laid out b}T the several cities and towns for all poor relief within their respective fiscal years are shown in Table XII. The aggregate is classified as "ordinary," or maintenance, and "extraordinary," or special. Together with the ordinary outlays are shown the receipts on account of maintenance, and the difference set out under "net ordinary expenditures." The ordinary outlay is classified as expenses in institutions and outside. The subdivision follows the classification in Table I regarding the nature and the place of aid. The grand total in Table XII shows that an aggregate of $43,406,963.26 was laid out by the several cities and towns. Of this sum, $43,175,405.62 was ordinary outlay, or maintenance; the remainder, or $231,557.64, was expended for sundry improvements, mostly at the city and town infirmaries. Of the money expended for maintenance, $2,397,534.61 was expended for infirmary care and $1,130,299.20 for relief in other institutions. Care in private families took $667,960.41; aid to mothers with dependent children, $2,602,127.91; and relief in the recipients' own homes, i.e., outdoor poor relief, totaled $30,356,570.21. Four million, six hundred forty-three thousand, nine hundred one dollars and sixty-seven cents ($4,643,901.67) was expended for Old Age Assistance. The cost of administration, including salary and office expenses of the local public welfare boards, but exclusive of institution administration, came to $1,377,011.61; the total receipts on account of ordinary expenditures were $6,645,654.06 — classified as receipts on account of institutions, $460,319.24; and all other, $6,185,334.82. This latter portion of the receipts is made up mostly of reimbursements by cities and towns ultimately liable and from the state treasury in unsettled cases. Sub- tracting receipts leaves $36,529,751.56 as the net ordinary outlay. »

Pt. III. 129

In Table XIII the analysis shown for cities and towns by Table XII is carried out for cases aided out of the State funds. 01 the $6,004,703.01 expended for this purpose, $5,981,794.73 was on account of ordinary expenditures, laid out as follows: At the State Infirmary, $509,288.35; at the State Farm, $14,041.12; at the Massa- chusetts Hospital School, $85,570.67 and all other expenditures outside of institutions, $5,372,894.59. Extraordinary expenditures totaled $22,908.28 — all expended for special improvements at the several institutions just enumerated. Inas- much as it is impossible to trace institution expenditures to the separate individuals receiving the aid, the figures set out under the State tables of cost are arrived at by taking from net cost of maintenance that proportion which the average number relieved in the institution bears to the average inmate population of the institution. In Table XIV State and local outlays are added, showing that of the $42,766,012. 21 expended for public poor relief, $42,511,546.29 was for ordinary outlays, of which $3,676,414.71 went for institutional relief and $37,458,119.97 was for relief outside. The total of extraordinary expenditures was $254,465.92.
