CRIME WAVE
I he warning by I BI Chief J. Edgar Hoover that we are heading into a
postwar crime wave prompts the question: What can we do about it?
Mr Hoover implied the answer when he pointed out that the greatest
crime increase since 1939 has been among the 'teen agers and that this
has been due largely to the failufe of parents and communities to concern
themselves sufficiently with the welfare of their youngsters.
Although juvenile crime is a much greater problem in large cities and
although some of the smaller localities are comparatively free from it,
every parent and every community should re-examine their attitude to
ward their youngsters to determine if they are doing all within their
power to understand the problems confronting the rising generation
and to do the utmost toward helping them enjoy happy, normal lives.
