Also Matching Bag Youth Delinquency Increases Again, Bureau Reveals Washington, D. C (U.R) Juvenile delinquency continued to increase in 1955, Dr. Martha M. Eliot, chief, children's bureau, U. S. Department of Health, Education, and Welfare, has an nounced. Dr. Eliot based her statement on two factors: 1. The children's bureau an nually receives reports from a number of juvenile courts on the' juvenile delinquency cases they handle. Preliminary es timates show that some 977 courts ' which reported to the bureau in both 1954 and 1955 have experienced a nine percent increase in juvenile delinquency cases over that period. Preliminary estimates based on reports of a trend group of 383 courts which have been re porting to the bureau for many years likewise show a nine per cent increase during the 1954 55 period. 2. The latest Federal Bureau of Investigation ' uniform crime report shows an 11.4 percent in crease in police arrests of young persons under 18 in 1955, as com pared with 1954. Their report was based on data from 1,162 cities. Data gathered by the child ren's bureau would indicate that some half a million children were brought to juvenile courts for delinquency last year, Dr. Eliot said. She pointed out that the offenses of some, children who get into trouble, with the police are not considered serious enough to warrant court action. While the nine percent in crease in cases was occurring, she pointed out, the child pop ulation in the 10-17 age group (generally the ages within the jurisdiction of the juvenile court) went up only about three per cent. "The C h i 1 d r e n 's Bureau, through its juvenile delinquency service division, has been receiv ing an increasing number of re quests for help from states and communities who are trying to plan services for delinquent children more effectively," Dr. Eliot said. "Our consultants are working with these people both in prevention and treatment pro grams. Hopefully, as we move ahead in the next several years, the joint efforts of local, state arid federal groups can pull the delinquency rate down," she concluded. Grove Gardeners Install Officers At Dinner Session Officers for the coming year were elected and installed at the last meeting of Grove Garden club, held in the cafeteria of Oak Grove school.
