SIX MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE Friday, November 5. 1954, No Single Cure-Ail Found for Problem of Juvenile Delinquency Washington U.R) Juvenile delinquency is a many-sided problem, and there is no single cure-all for it. But much can be done to check it. That was the general conclu sion of some 460 experts at a recent national conference on the subject. According to the experts, time and money, too but most of all teamwork and understanding are needed to solve the prob lem. As Dr. Martha Eliot, chief of the Children's Bureau said, "It takes prolonged effort to combat delinquency." The problem starts with the Expert on Stocks Slated at Banquet Walter Maynard, senior part ner and head of the research de partment of Shearson, Hammill and company, New York' Stock Exchange member firm, will be the featured speaker here Nov. 8 at J. Henry Henser and com pany's annual information ban quet, slated for the Jackson hotel. Reservations for the evening dinner may be made by writing or telephoning Paul W. Horn beck, resident manager, 411 Lev- erette building, Medford. Horn beck's telephone number is 2 6025. A nationally known market analyst, Maynard is scheduled to discuss "Security Ownership and America's Future," with an ex amination of the nation's eco nomy and of security prices at certain key dates in the past as compared them with the present. Izvestia Sees Vote Negative Indication Moscow (U.R) Izvestia, the government newspaper, said to day the American elections gave merely a negative indication. . It said the voting reflected a "protest against Republican pol icy" rather than support to Demo crats who had not held any con crete program in front of the Republican one." Izvestia said Republican at tempts to present the Manila pact on Southeast Asian defense and the Paris agreements on re arming West Germany as "tanta- . mount successes for Republican policies" have "produced an op posite effect on voters despite the White House's direct inter vention on that ground." "The returns show that the American people do not approve the policy of Fascis mand aggres sion promoted by U.S.A. leading circles," Izvestia said. Caller Pleased To Learn Representative Reelected Washington U.R) The Washington Daily News report ed today that a telephone caller Inquired whether Rep. Thomas M. Pelly (R-Wash.) has been re elected. Told he had, the caller remarked: -"Good. I take out his daugh ter, and I just wanted to be sure they'd be back." Nashville, N. C .(U.R) Rep. Harold D. Cooley, who is sched uled to be the new chairman of the House Agriculture Commit tee, says a "vigorous" effort will be renewed in the 84th Congress for a 90 per cent farm parity pro gram. , fact that no one knows just how many really delinquent young sters there are .in the country. Reports to the bureau showed slightly more than 1,000,000 de linquents last year. That is roughly 2 per cent of the na tion's children under 18. Delinquency Up Nearly Half But reports from some cities lump a child who rides his bi cycle on the Sidewalk or com mits some other minor offense in the delinquent column along with young burglars or killlers. Even so, the figures show a startling increase in the number of delinquency cases serious enough to reach juvenile or other courts. Last year a record high of 435,000 youngsters were taken into court, 45 to 50 per cent more than in 1948. In the same 1948-53 period, the nation's population of 10-to-8-year-olds increased only seven per cent. The seriousness of some juve nile crimes was brought out in a Federal' Bureau of Investigation report on arrests across the na tion last year. They showed that youths of 18 and under commit ted 54 per cent of the auto thefts, 49 per cent of burglaries, 16 per cent of rapes, 5 per cent of assaults and 4 per cent of homicides Against this background of the juvenile delinquency prob lem, judges, police officials, wel fare workers, educators, P.T.A., religious and civic leaders spent three days discussing what can be done about it. Educate Parents, Too Better schools, better trained police, more parent education, more community services for families and better institutions for young delinquents were some of the answers suggested. There was some suggestion that adults need help, too, to re adjust to rapid social change. Parents need education on their responsibility for their children, but they also need reassurance fo avoid worry, one erouD said. Another emphasized that there should be no "double stan dard" of conduct for children and adults. As an example, it said, adults shouldn't expect children not to cheat if they try to get by with it themselves. The experts agreed that there is no single cause for juvenile delinquency and the solution, therefore, is a job for everyone.

RR Traffic Control Begun in Mountains Eugene "Push-button" rail roading was expended to cover Southern Pacific tracks between Eugene and Klamath Falls this week when signal crews finish ed the installation "centralized traffic control" along 95 miles between Eugene and Crescent Lake. Installation between Crescent Lake and Klamath Falls was completed a year ago. Total cost of the improvement was approxi mately $6,500,000. A total of 273 miles of the Shasta route be tween Portland and San Fran cisco now has this modern type of traffic control. A complex electronic system by which a dispatcher can better control the movement of trains, CTC allows heavier-than-normal traffic loads to be handled more efficiently over a single track. By pushing buttons, he can line up switches and set signals to direct an engineer on a train many miles away. More trains can be handled, running times substantially re duced, and more cars and loco motives can be made available, Rail switches in the Cascade mountains between Eugene and Klamath Falls are equipped with propane-gas heaters to keep snow and ice from forming on the switches. CTC operators at Eugene and Dunsmuir, Calif., can start the heaters burning many miles away by pressing buttons when temperatures drop to the danger point. VISITS STRICKEN AREA U. S.
