A number of newsmen have pro

Only two days ago, the Asso

said "qualified newsmen should be
allowed to report first hand from
the mainland of China.
Secretary of State Dulles Tues

responsible newsmen to visit Red

He said any such "one-shot ex

Forty-eight per cent of the
young people we talked to go

another. Only 41 per cent favor
publication of the names. About
11 per cent didn't answer the ques

think that coddling in this as well
as other respects leads to further
transgressions, and that some
youngsters may be taught a les
son if their families are suffi
ciently humiliated.
Divided on Age Toe
If you are going to print names,
at what age should it start? About
half of the teeners thought it
should start before the age of 17.
The age of 18 was a popular one
for a starting point, but neraly a
fourth of the group thought that
publication should not start until
age 21.

On the treatment of delinquents,

other solution for inflation.
O'Mahoney told a reporter that
as long as "the administration is
unwilling to do anything about
this inflationary spiral we're hiv
ing, the cost of living is going
to keep on going up."
His comments were prompted
by new government data Tuesday
snowing that living costs rose
again in March to a new record
level for the seventh straight
month. The government's index
for March, at 118.9 per cent of
the 147-19 base period, was 37
per cent higher than a year earlier.
O Mahoney, a member of the
Senate-House Economic Commit

"tight money" policies, imposed
by the Federal Reserve Board in
the form of hieh interest rates,
have been ineffective in curbing
inflation. It has only meant, he
said, that citiiens have to pay
more for money they borrow and
greater taxes for interest on the
government debt.

Soldiers Los Battle
Against Whales And Sea
CAPE HENRY. Va. W Nine
small whales were tossed ashore
here Monday by a brisk northeast
storm. I.t. N. H. Jongeblood, at
nearby Ft. Story, was ordered to
"get them back to sea before they
die."
Jongeblood and his men attarhed
lines to the tails of the whales
and hauled them back into the
water.
When the soldiers returned to
the beach, there lo greet them

Nearly half a dozen times, the
soldiers repeated the performance

success seem to be within their

youngster who feels out of step

Most youngsters rest the burden
on the parents. The home envir

tenths of all delinquency, they say.

if the family is rich or poor it's
the parental interest that counts.
Thev reason this way:
Everyone has to feel important
somewhere. If parents don't care,
the child will likely as not fall into
bad company to find acceptance
among others who aren't wanted.
He'll get satisfaction, too, in be

But most teens are optimistic
A young delinquent can be turned
into i useful citizen, they insist,
if his parents will take hold with
love and understanding.
Of course, the young people In

as delinquents. Eight-four per

either.
In fact, they're pretty Indignant
about what delinquents which
they consider a small minority

British Journal Hits
At Trial Of Dr. Adams
LONDON I The trial of Dr.
John Bodkin Adams on charges
of drugging wealthy widow to
death may keep many doctors
from trying to ease their patients'
pain with narcotics, a British
Medical Journal said Wednesday.
Dr. Adama was acquitted early
this month on charges of murder
ing Mrs. Edith Morrell, 81, by giv
ing her massive doses of nar
cotics. The motive, said the pros
ecution, was to gain from her will.
The defense said Mrs. Morrell
was dying from a cerebral throm
bosis and the drugs were admin
istered to ease her pain.
