They are deeply con cerned now, . (Editor's note: This is the first of a series of five articles that will analyze major aspect of events involving the morals of young Americans which have made news recently. It will report the reaction of educators, law-enforcement officers and others who are dealing with the problem.) By RELMAN MORIN New York, Aug. 21 W) Three times within the past few months a startled nation suddenly has been confronted with some painful facts of life. The facts were doubly painful because they all involved young Tells of Illness Sister Elizabeth Kenny is greeted at Los Angeles, by Actress Rosalind Russell upon her arrival by Pan American plane from Australia en route to the interna tional infantile paralysis conference in Copenhagen. The famed nurse confirmed reports that her illness is "the be ginning of Parkinson's disease," and said that she is losing the use of her right arm and partial use of her right leg. (AP Wirephoto) Waxey Gordon, Beer Baron, Seriously III New York, Aug. 21 (P) Wax ey Gordon, the 63-year-old beer baron of prohibition days, lay very ill today in a federal jail with the possibility of remain ing behind bars for life. Gordon, who is being held on narcotics charges, will be turn ed over to New York state for prosecution on dope charges. If convicted by the state, he would be subject to a life term as a fourth offender. Federal law has no such provision. The decision to turn Gordon over to the state was revealed in federal court yesterday when his attorney sought reduction in his $250,000 bail.

Berning, Ml. Angel, Ore., has completed r Costly Fire Every 6 Years Since 1933 By th AMOclated Prfcu) Kvery six years since 1933 there has been a costly fire in the Tillamook Burn and 1951 again is the sixth year. Here is the way the past fires have attacked, and been fought: 1933 Fire started on Gales Creek; 270.000 burned acres; fought by 3,000 men; one CCC worker killed. 1939 Reproduction growth burned along with 28,000 acres of green timber; total burn area that year was 225, 000 acres. 1945 The last of the seed sources were destroyed; 110, 000 acres burned; fought by 4,000 men; three lives lost. 1951 (April) Some 7,500 burned. (July fire figures not complete). First, a series of reports show ed that teen-agers and young adults in increasing numbers arc rcguler users of dope. Many of them are now confirmed addicts, possibly beyond cure. To get the money for it, they resort to shop-lifting, burglary, robbery and prostitution. Narcotics offi cers say the practice exists in small towns as well as big cities, and that it is spreading. At about the same time, de tectives began unravelling a skein of crooked operations on college basketball. Athletes were charged with accepting 2 1 bribes to control the scores of the games. Starting in New York city, the trail soon led to other basketball centers. And finally, the story of a broken code of honor at West Point shocked America as noth ing comparable has ever done. www In fact, no true parallels exist in American life for any of these phenomena. A narcotics officer would hoot at the suggestion that the gin-and-jazz age of the 'twenties was the equivalent of dope ad diction by young people in 1951." "You didn't find a high school kid pulling stickups to get the money for a bottle of gin," the officer says. "He didn't crave it that much." A long generation ago, the Black Sox" scandal saddened the baseball fans of that day. But the participants were older men and professional athletes in the official sense of the word. 355-day production test in offi cial herd improvement registry. 1 "tern to nrro "It's tkt Water" rli (rawht Co. Olymflto, Wok.lt S. A. TWWwfiOWntaaj Sale Ends Saturday! PLASTHC "ALPKir SEAT COVERS Every generation worries about its children. But today the professionals are worried, too. Those men and women who deal with young- Their concern focuses on the conditions in which young peo ple have to live today. They cite four main sources of danger: 1. The parents themselves, and lack of discipline. 2. The fear of another great war, which will mean sudden death for many young people, and a totally uncertain future for all of them. 3. The examples of conduct set forth by persons of prestige in the eyes of youngsters. 4. The impact of more power ful channels of information, driving home these aspects of life more vividly and in greater volume than ever before. Whether any of these condi tions is subject to any remedy or control is a matter of debate. An expert probation officer, Miss Doris Clarke of the magi strate's court of New York, says: "I am less disturbed about the youngsters than I am about their parents. Too often, the origin of the trouble is right at home." The experience and opinions of persons who are in daily con tact with young people all adds up to the same conclusion: Youth, as always, is reacting to conditions, and conditions now are not so good.
