Res. 62 as Extended, Eighty-Fourth Congress, Investigation of Juvenile DeliThe subcommittee met, pursuant to notice, at 10:30 o'clock a.m., in the main courtroom, U.S. Court House, Miami, Fla., Senator Estes Kefauver (chairman of the subcommittee) presiding.Present: Senator Kefauver.Also present: James H. Bobo, general counsel. Ernest A. Mitler, special counsel. H. Patrick Kiley, investigator. William F. Haddad, consultant.Chairman Kefauver. The subcommittee will come to order.This is a special subcommittee of the United States Senate, a subcommittee on the Judiciary, composed of Senators Wiley of Wisconsin, Langer of North Dakota, Hennings of Missouri, Daniel of Texas and myself.Unfortunately, in this hearing the other Senators are either out of the country or engaged. We hope that possibly Senator Langer may be able to come at a later time. He has a physical disability which prevented him from coming down last night.I have the pleasure of being the chairman of the subcommittee. The Senate of the United States gave this subcommittee the responsibility of finding out what the extent of juvenile delinquency is in the United States, what the causes of it might be, and of investigating and recommending to the United States Senate and to the Judiciary Committee suggestions for laws insofar as interstate commerce is concerned, narcotics and other problems in which the Federal Government has a responsibility.It gives me personally a great deal of pleasure to be back in Miami among all my old friends. I did want to say that for the past few days we have had some members of our staff who have been in Miami arranging these hearings.Our chief counsel, Mr. James H. Bobo, is on my left. Mr. Ernest Mitler, who is associate counsel and who was formerly with Mr. Frank Hogans department as assistant district attorney in New York, is on my right, and he has especially worked on one part of our hearing, the part that has to do with illegal traffic in the adoption or placement of children for adoption. On my extreme left is Mr. Bill Haddad, the man who handled public relations and many other general things for the subcommittee.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
