YOUTH PROBLEMS
Modern Pressures Berid the
Young Toward Delinquency
pier in the mass teachers, the
clergymen, law enforcement of
ficers, etc. usually remain fair
ly detached and serene about
recurring crises in manners and
morals. 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

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

use of her right arm and partial use of her right leg. (AP

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.

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.

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.
