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

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.
