6 BUCKS ASSURED HMII Negro Boys’ Institution To Be Located on River in Adams ville District. As a resuit of Superior Judge Pendle ton's severe criticism of children s court conditions, the Fulton county commis sion has decided definitely to estau • a reformatory for negro boys. 3he in stitution will be located on the < i.itta hoochee river in the Adamsville distric between the Baker Ferry and Garrett Bridge-roads. . Members of the alms ano , ut. committee at a recent meeting voted unanimously on the proj< •< t, «<u tor z mg thepurehas. acres of and tn Adamsville for $55 a acre or *-3.090. Commissioner Shelby Smith, >h.t> man of the committee, said today that the commission would ratify the com mittee's action and work on the con struction of buildings for the reforma tory would be begun at once. To Care For 200 Boys. “It IS "the commission s plan, said Mr. Smith, “to construct frame build- | Ings on the property so as t® have the reformatory in shape to care or - hoys by spring. The county will follow the usual method of camp construction and will be able to erect temporary buildings from tlmbei now on the lam . "Nearly 100 acres of the tract is the finest bottom land in the county and will be available at once for farming purposes. The reformatory is certain to be self-supporting and in time will bring a revenue in to the county >y supplying other institutions with pro visions.” . , . According to Mr. Smith the county will pay one-fourth cash for the land and the remainder In three yearly in stallments. The tract includes land lots Nos. 56. 57, 55. 84 and 85. Result of Court’s Criticism. The commission's action came, as a direct result of Judge] Pendleton’s re cent severe arraignment of court con ditions. The Jurist, in discharging a grand jury declared the children's court as It now is administered, is "a mere incentive to crime." He said that the judges of the court had no place to send negro boys, since the law prohibited them from sending juveniles to jail ami, for this reason, offenders took the chil dren’s court as a joke. In addition to providing a reforma tory for negro boys the commission authorized the renting of the Shelter ing Arms building at Walton and Ma rietta streets for $1,200 a year, to be used as a detention home. The present detention quarters at 169 Central ave nue will be discontinued as soon as the Sheltering Arms authorities can find a new home. The Central avenue home costs the county S4BO a year. GOV.
