Lesson oi Crime
By J. EDGAR HOOVER
D ire c to r, Federal Bureau of Investigation
Yount thugs and teenage c rim in a ls may be pressing their
luck by Increasing th e ir violent escapades while blaming society
fo r th e ir faults.
. . .
... . m u »
It appears that the public Is beginning to gag on the steady
sociological diet of excusing the conduct of teenage hoodlums
because “ society has failed them .” Resort communities racked
by senseless rio ts and citizens who cannot venture from the r
homes without being assaulted and beaten are getting bed up
with pampered and Insolent youth gangs.
borne courts in the troubled areas are taking a more
re a lis tic approach In handling those Involved In these outbreaks.
New laws providing stlrte r penalties are being enacted in a te»
places. We can only hope that authorities everywhere w ill follow
Oils trend. C ertainly, the mere desire of young miscreants to
have a “ b la st’ or “ let off steam” Is no excuse to ravage a
community and to malm and te rro riz e Its residents.
That holiday rio ts and s im ila r antics by carousing youths
have evoked widespread concern Is not surprising. It Is su r­
p ris in g , however, that strong public reaction did not come
sooner. F o r several years, the Increasing volume o f crlnrinal
acts by voung pe o p le -sp u rre d on by the lenient treatment
received—has presented a clear barom etric reading of what we
are not witnessing. For instance, from 1960 through 1964, the
percentage of young age-group a rre sts fo r homicide, fo rclb e
rape, aggravated assault, robbery, b u rg la ry , larceny, and auto
theft more than doubled the population Increase percentage of
the same group. A rrests of persons under 18 fo r simple assault
rose 79"!. drunkenness and related violations 52%, disorderly
conduct 18%, and concealed weapons 17% during the same five
years. In the light of this shameful p ic tu re , we cannot say that
we were not forewarned.
The Immediate objective, of course, Is to put a stop to
these rumbles and mass vandalism. Meanwhile, the question
puzzling most people is what caused the p rinciples and morals
o f some of our youth to degenerate to near a n lm a lle v e l. Rec­
ognizing the problem comes much easier than Its solution.
However, o f all the factors Involved, I am convinced one of
the most damaging Is the false teaching which tends to blame
society fo r a ll the frustrations, woes and inconveniences, real
o r Im aginary, visited upon our young people. Teenagers, and
th e ir parents, have been subjected to a foolhardy theory which
condones rebellious conduct against authority, law and order,
o r anv regulatroy measures which re s tric t th e ir whims, wishes,
d esires, and activitie s. This astonishing belief has spread Into
the schoolroom, the living room, the courtroom , and now Into
the streets of our Nation In the form of w ild, drunken brawls.
No doubt, society has failed our youth, but not In the way
many seem to think. Rather, the d ereliction has been In the
fa ilu re to teach them the meaning of d iscip lin e , re s tra in t, s e lf-
respect, and respect fo r law and ordei and the rights of others.
Consequently, the lesson now Is both p a i n f u l and costly.
Child Safety
Week Dated
In cooperation with the Am­
erican Safety League, Governor
M ark Hatfield has proclaim ed
the period September 8 through
15 Child Safety Week In Ore­
gon.
Hatfield urged “ parents, tea­
chers, police, school and sa­
fety o fficia ls and the public
generally to combine In an effo rt
to educate school children In
safe tra ve l habits. M oreover,
there Is during this p a rticu la r
tim e need fo r Increased a le rt­
ness on the part ol m otorists
traveling In school zones, near
playgrounds, o r In areas where
groups of children are active.”
The Governor asked “ that
each Oregonian cooperate In
every possible manner, not only
during National C hild Safety
Week, but throughout the year,
so that our streets and high­
ways are safe fo r a ll, and so
that the needless to ll of ac­
cidents, fa ta litie s and econom­
ic loss may be reduced.”
Unemployment Rate
Low In August
High employment In most out­
door activities In late August
brought the rate of Insured
unemployment to Its lo w e s t
level fo r the period since 1959,
J. N. Peet, com m issioner, De­
partm ent of Employment re­
ported here.
Peet said that 2.0% rate of
u n e m p lo y m e n t among the
state’ s covered w orkers com­
pared to a rate of 2^4% four
weeks e a rlie r and 2.1% for the
comparable week In 1964. In
1963, the rate was 2.4% for the
comparable week; 2.8% In 1962
and 3.0% In 1961.
For the week ending Aug. 7,
the Insured unemployment rate
fo r the United States was 2.5%
and In Oregon, 2.2%. Number of
weeks claimed last week totaled
8,957 compared to 10,737 four
weeks e a rlie r and 9,100 a year

The
Slow Train
Have you ever waited fo r what
seemed to be hours while a
fre ig h t tra in slowly lumbered
across the street ahead of you?
Have you ever said to your­
se lf, there ought to be a law?
The c i t y of P leasantville
passed an ordinance p ro h ib it­
ing the operation of any train
across its street crossings for
periods longer than five m in­
utes.
Sometime after the passage
of this ordinance, one of the
Short Haul Railroad Company’ s
tra in s blocked a P leasantville
street for almost 15 minutes.
The city brought a legal action
against the ra ilro a d company
under Its new ordinance.
“ Five minutes Is an unreas­
onably short tim e ,” said a rep­
resentative of the ra ilro a d com­
pany. “ Such an ordinance dis­
rupts interstate comm erce, and
as such is unconstitutional.”
The tr a il court found the time
lim it was reasonable. It decided
that the ordinance was valid, and
that no unreasonable burden
was placed on Interstate com­
merce.
The S h o r t Haul Railroad
Company appealed.
Can a city pass an ordinance
lim itin g the tim e that a train
can block Its city streets?
Yes, said the Supreme Court
of Wisconsin In a recent case.
The use of railw ay crossings
Is a proper subject fo r reason-
aide regulation under the police
power of the city, ahd public
Interest requires such regula­
tion.
A statute o r ordinance w ill
be held constitutional unless the
contrary Is shown beyond re ­
asonable doubt. In this case no
facts were presented to the
court which would Indicate that
the city ordinance was unreas­
onable o r invalid.
The city of Pleasantville won
-the case,— -----------------------------

New regulations In effect this
year provide that hunters with
five c o n s e c u t iv e rejection
notices w ill receive p rio rity fo r
the unit or areas of th e ir choice.
In other words, all hunters
with the five rejection cards
w ill be accommodated fir s t tip
to the established p e rm it quota
before other applications w ill
be considered.
However, It Is up to the
Individual hunters to save the
rejection notices they receive
following the drawings. No rec­
ords of rejection are m aintain­
ed by the game comm ission,
so If hunters lose o r discard
these notices they w ill have
to start a ll over. A lso, If a
hunter obtains a p e rm it In the
In te rim , the chain Is broken
and he must start again on the
