_Judge of the Juvenile and Family Court of Denver, Colorado._
Judge Lindsey is one of the best known of Americans. He is an authority
on child welfare and juvenile treatment--a writer of note on the
subject, a lecturer, a man whose opinions are sought.
In January, 1899, he was appointed public guardian and administrator
of the County Court of Denver, that under the first Colorado Juvenile
law of April 12th, 1899, became the Juvenile Court. The following year
he was appointed, and ten times since has been elected Judge of that
Court, in which he is now serving his twenty-sixth year. In Who’s Who
for 1925 he is listed as the “promoter of the juvenile court system and
originator of some of its features and has international reputation as
an authority upon juvenile delinquency.”
Judge Lindsey is author of the Colorado Juvenile Court laws and with
his collaborator (Wainwright Evans) the recent much discussed book “The
Revolt of Modern Youth.” In this book Judge Lindsey takes a firm stand
against censorship.
The following address was delivered by Judge Lindsey at the Fourth
National Motion Picture Conference in Chicago, Ill., in February, 1926.
