State supports aged veterans while urging aid for "soldiers of industry"
The report to Governor Capper urges Kansas to adopt county homes on the colony plan to house the aged, veterans, widows and dependent workers who cannot support themselves. It argues for extending juvenile and parental pension laws and placing public funds to secure elder care, while noting many aged individuals have labored long for society and deserve private and public support. The board also highlights that many problem youths stem from urban areas, with data from the Topeka Industrial School showing 268 boys from towns versus 24 from rural districts.
