Notwithstanding the millions of dollars which have been spent, which may be said is that the results have been negligible and it would not be an overstatement to say that in some cases harmful." Discussing the supervisory system the presentment says: "The present house master system is impossible. House masters and matrons, sometimes designated ironically, it would house 'fathers' and house 'mothers' are hired from employment agencies and various other sources. Some are fair. some are mediocre and some the house masters have been brutal, but none has been of the type which should be found there.

Brutality Charged "The boys have been subjected from time to time to corporal punishment, sometimes as an alleged fatherly correction, sometimes out of sheer Although the evidence considered by this body was not of such a definite nature as to fix the day, time, place, facts and corroborative detail in such a manner as to warrant our finding, at this time, of indictments, nevertheless we are convinced that there has been an entirely unwarranted use of corporal punishment. "No competent dietitian has been employed, nor has any proper diet schedule been maintained. The boys' complaints relative to unsatisfactory, unappetizing, poorly prepared food are, in the main, justified. The expert testimony considered by us indicates waste, indifference, possible extravagance, badly prepared food, unbalanced diet, and an almost complete lack of appreciation of the food requirements of growing boys." Concluding its findings, the jury's presentment continues: "This grand jury respectfully adrises that if the people of our city are to continue this school that there should be a complete revision of the plan, scope, objectives, management and personnel." Specifically, it recommended that the school be made an experimental laboratory in the reclamation of boys before they develop into criminals; that it be provided with the best of modern pedagogical, psychological and psychiatric advice, that house masters be selected more carefully, that an expert dietician be engaged, that boys be allowed to visit their homes over weekends, that red tape be reduced to a minimum and that the authority of the director be greatly increased.

Deutsch, President of the Board of Aldermen, had nothing to say this morning when he arrived on the Ward liner Oriente, regarding the criticism of the speeches he delivered during a month's vacation in Mexico. Mr. Deutsch, who was censured by the Gold Shirts, who are Mexican Fascists, for alleged meddling in Mexican affairs, and by Catholic publications here for praising the freedom existing in Mexico, was met at Quarantine by Kenneth Dayton, his assistant, Maj. George Bronstein, chief clerk of his office.

They reached him before ship news reporters did and Mr. Deutsch appeared disconcerted at the prospect of an interview. The Aldermanic President excused himself from comment on published accounts of his speeches in Mexico by saying he had not seen an American newspaper in some time. Likewise, he would not discuss the proposed business tax for relief funds on the ground that he was not familiar with the measure. Mr.

Deutsch said he had found Mexico apparently free from depression and public works going on everywhere. He was told by Dayton that he will be acting Mayor for several days when Mayor LaGuardia goes to Chicago.
