Success of Curfew Laws Against
Juvenile Delinquency Is Debated
Chicago iU.B A big problem
now confronting many Ameri
can cities and towns is the enact
ment of curfnw laws, or the en
forcement of existing curfew
regulations to combat Juvenile
delinquency.
Authorities seem to disagree
as to whether they are necessary,
or even effective in preventing
teenage crime.
Lt. Michael Delaney, head of
Chicago's Crime Prevention Ba

It. (Oiv- l Htubttin), Hartford, Conn., U.S.A.
reau, is convinced that curfew
enforcement, especially in large
cities, is an important factor in
eliminating delinquency.
"Although there is more in
volved than merely setting up a
deadline when children under
specific ages must be off the
street." Delaney said, "it is,
nevertheless, a start in the right
direction."
Chicago now has enforced cur-,
few laws requiring children
under 16 to be off the streets by
10:30 p.m. Sunday through
Thursday, and 11:30 p.m. on Fri
day and Saturday.
Delaney is trying to raise the
age limit to include the 16-year-
old, as "this age group causes
the most trouble." It is the age
when many leave school. i
On the average, 200 juveniles
are picked up by Chicago police
every month, although the fig
ure is considerably more during
the spring and summer months.
Under present procedure, the
child is immediately turned over
to a juvenile officer, and his par
ents are tilled in to .explain why
their you igster is out in viola
tion of the curfew ordinance.
In the case of a first offense,
the parent or guardian is given
a warning, but in cases of repe
tition where a lack of coopera
tion is apparent, they can be
summoned to court and fined.
Only one such case reached
the court during 1955, Delaney
said. However, the one repre
sents only three chlidren who
violated the curfew law and does
not include the number picked
up on the more serious charges
of auto theft, drinking, purse-
snatching, etc.
In a study of curfew ordin
ances in Florida, the American
Municipal Association singled
out several worthy findings.
Of the 260 Florida munici
palities sent questionnaires, 57
of those responding have curfew
ordinances. The largest number
enacted in any single year came
in 1943, apparently due to war
time conditions. -
The most common time set for
young people to be off the
streets was 10 p.m., while the
most frequent age limits were
16 to 17.
Although youthful vandalism
takes place mostly at night, one
community found that most
such acts occurred during day
light hours and on week ends.
Another town found that only
14 per cent of delinquent activ
ity took place after 9 p.m.
Most authorities agree that
curfew alone will not adequately
combat juvenile delinquency.
Just as important. If not more
so, is the provision for recreation
programs.
Conditions causing anti-social
conditions among the younger
people must be examined and
corrections made accordingly.
Muncipal leaders believe that
curfews are useful chiefly as de
vices to focus the attention of
adults and children on the de
sirability of children being off
the streets late at night.
This opinion, of course, re
quires that the law enforcement
powers be sufficient to enable
police to apprehend any young
ster or group of young people
who are out late.

Chaplain Indefinite;
Hopes Grace Pregnant
Monaco tU.R) Nobody knew
for sure today whether Grace
Kelly was pregnant. But Father
Francis Tucker, chaplain to her
husband Prince Rainier, said, "I
sure hope she is."
"I have had no definite word
that she is," Father Tucker
added hastily in Paris, where he
was on his way back to the Uni
ted States. "But neither of- them
has made any secret that they
want to have children," he said.
"Nobody is taking a very b'B
chance when he says the princess
is expecting."
He noted a Berlin newspaper's
report that Grace is expecting
an heir in January, said he knew
nothing definite, but added "I
sure hope she is."
Father Tucker made his com
ments as Grace and the Prince
came back to Monaco from their
honeymoon aboard the Yacht
Deo Juvante II.
