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

Peet said that 2.0% rate of

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

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

However, It Is up to the
Individual hunters to save the
