Strong Family Ties Said Foe Against Delinquency (Editor's note: Judge Em ma Fell Schofield, New England's first woman jur ist, mad a study of juve nile delinquency during more than 25 years on the bench. Now . retired, the judge, 73. suggests ways to solve the problem.) By JUDGE E. F. SCHOFIELD Written for UPI Boston -0JPD- There is less juvenile delinquency abroad than in the United States, so I decided to find out why. Visits to 10 countries in Eu rope and Africa led me to the growing conviction that the adequacy of parents and the strength of family ties are the chief factors to be considered in attaining good citizenship. In Spain, Portugal and Greece, family ties are strong. Children obey and defer to their parents long after child hood. Divorce is not permitted in Spain and Portugal. Countries plagued by delin quency also could take a les son from Switzerland, where life is much more simple and natural. Television sets are scarce, movies are regulated, and bicycles are more numer ous than autos. Little Thievery Remembering the number of bicycle thefts in my own country, I was amazed to see hundreds of bicycles stacked around railroad stations while the owners took weekend trips in the mountains. Yet bicycle thefts are a rare oc currence, the Swiss said. In Hawaii, authorities set Up a School for Delinquent Parents. When a court judged a child delinquent, his parents were legally obliged to attend classes and lectures at the school. The judge of the juve nile court in Hilo told me there have been few repeater delinquents among children whose parents attended the school. What causes juvenile delin quency? Too often people are inclined to attribute it to one or two things, then propose one plan for the solution. But Exceptional Portrait Values for . . . "Early Bird" Big Advantages If You Pose Now 1.

At PHONE SP 2-5238 120 EASY TO FIND . i s van i - J I delinquency must be attacked on many fronts. The aftermaths of World Wars I and II have contrib uted to the situation. These include mass communication, TV, movies, radio, greater availability of automobiles, emancipation of women and children, working mothers and the resulting feeling of insecurity on the part of chil dren, small apartment living, broken homes, drinking par ents, lack of religious training and salacious literature. If social disorganization and the gradual disappearance of the closely integrated family unit is one chief cause, it would seem necessary to de velop new values and tech niques to keep up with chang ing times. , We can't go back to the big, roomy houses or prohibit mothers from working. But we can establish mental hygiene classes and courses for parents so they will be able to teach themselves and their children self-discipline. To bring about self-disci pline in children, adults must be models of good behavior, and the home and school must have an atmosphere of dignity that will give children a sense of trust. New Discipline Intelligent parents are dis covering a new approach to the art of child discipline. They realize there is a middle road between the "don't spare the rod" school and the ex cessive leniency that has spoiled so many children. The objective is to teach the child to control himself and to make him understand that restraint is the obvious way of getting through life easily. To help accomplish these objectives, we should teach more religion of a non-sectarian nature in the schools and we should bar liquor adver tising from billboards, TV and radio. Children are beginning to regard the drinking of alco holic beverages as part of the American way of life.

This is the second year the Medford chapter has sold mints as a benefit for Chil dren's Hospital school in Eugene. Last year the 60 Oregon chapters donated $7,388 to the school. George Safford, manasine director of the school said, "The various chapters of ESA have been of real service to us. In addition to raising monies to employ well qualified therapists for cur school, offering campships for hospital school children, contributing for the shoe and brace fund, they also help us locate and assist children re quiring the services of the Hospital School." Local chapter members are enthusiastic boosters of the school. Several visited the school last April and ex pressed amazement at the ac complishments of the handi capped youngsters. Average attendance is 30 to 35 chil dren, whose ages range from 5 to 15 years. They come from all over the state and several from Jackson county have attended. It is a day school and the children live in foster homes in Eugene. They are taught handicrafts, as well as regular scnool 'ork and most receive ther apy treatments each day. The public school system supplies the classroom teach ers, but all therapists, etc. are paid for by donations from or ganizations and individuals.

Sept. 27 I picked up acorns (leaves too, but they are easy) under our big oak tree. There were lots of them. In the evening I enjoyed the program about backaches on the TV because I had one from this bending work. According to the Sunday paper this day had a tempera ture range of 50 degrees, 45 to 95. It is remarkable to have such a difference between day and night. Cool nights and warm days are also very delightful. These are great days for people also for birds, bees, butterfiles and many other creatures. Sunday, Sept. 28 This was another fine day, so after church we took a picnic lunch up on Roxy Ann. We went to the most im proved picnic spot, on the north side of the hill. However, let people be warned; not all the poison oak is eliminated even from inside the fence at this place. There are always birds there because of the spring. Steller's jays, acorn wood peckers, white-breasted nuthatches and juncos were among the expected birds we saw. More unexpected was a hermit thrush, and what I thought was a golden-crowned kinglet. In the evening I gave a bird talk to a church group. As usual I learned some things. One man told about how the acorn woodpeckers kept putting acorns through a little hole in a barn wall as though they were trying to fill the whole barn. They caused this same mai quite a little trouble be cause they completely filled a plumbing vent with acorns. These are busy birds and, as with people, not all their busy ness is of benefit to them. Monday, Sept. 29 I picked up J. H. and we went up the Appiegate to xne ct-ito lino hnv-e Pnnnpr This is a fine river with many beauty spots along it.

He said they were bathing in pot-holes by 4Va rixraf -irti4 Hlictincf in tVlO Call H We Hid not find such ereat numbers, but did find quite a few, not right along the river but back in the trees where they seemed to be feeding on madrona berries. There were probably lots more in the trees that we didn't see. I am glad that these wild pigeons, unlike the extinct passenger pigeon, are able to hold their own and even withstand hunting pressure. We saw one dipper (water ouzel) on the river. This is the interesting gray, thrush-like bird which feeds in the mountain streams. It doesn't have web feet, but "flies" in v, einr it ctnVihv winss. The onlv new fall bird that we saw was a couple of water pipits which were feeding along the beach of the river opposite Ruch. There were also quite a number of mergansers on the river about that same place. At home I noted the first Audubon's warbler of the sea son on the place. Wednesday. Oct. 1 - Today I saw the first junco of the season on the home place. J. H, had them at his place several days earlier. I also noticed lesser goldfinches feeding on the Michaelmas daisy seeds for the first time. Since the flowers are still blooming further down the stem we now have flowers, butterflies and goldfinches all at once, a very nice combination I was going through Camp White so I turned off to see what birds were feeding on the old roads where the pears are put to dry. I ran across Charlie Hoover himself and he showed me where the pit is that the juice is collected the birds got drunk on. I think that with the hot weather most of the alcohol has evaporated and that is why we didn t see any drunk birds. . On a road above Eagle Point where I had occasion to go T annah snarrows.

The figure compares with 53.000 Dermits issued during the entire year of 1957. In Oregon, the association issued 301 international per mits so far this year, an in crease of 30 per cent over last year. This fall a group of AAA club managers, including Ray Conway, manager of the Ore gon association, will visit seven countries in Europe to evaluate the AAA program of travel assistance. The group will be gone about a month. Spanish Rica Canned Spanish rice is ideal for quick casseroles. Combine tuna, shrimp, or salmon with the Rice; put into individual casseroles and then into the oven just long enough to get hot throughout. Sometimes sprinkle grated Cheddar cheese over top just before putting into the oven. Noth ing could be easier, and yet so good! Pie Variation For a variation of apple pie, sprinkle the top crust with grated cheese in the last 10 minutes of baking. Let the cheese melt, then remove the pie from the oven, serve warm.

Robert D. Holmqs. The Governor, who led fights through the Western and National Governors' Con ferences to keep the Depart ment of Defense from going through with announced plans for drastic cuts in the National Guard, said he was "tremendously pleased that the decision has been re versed." Governor Holmes said he had been advised by Secre tary of the Army Wilber M Brucker that the decision to cut National Guard strength from 400,000 to 360,000 had been reconsidered and that as a result the Oregon-Washing ton 41th Infantry Division would be allocated five bat tle groups instead of three. Other than restoring the 41st Division to full strength basis, there was no other final decision on disposition of troop units. Oregon now has 78 company-sized Army units. Governor Holmes reported that Maj. Gen. Thomas Rilea, Oregon's adjutant general, had been elected to -the exec utive council of the National Guard association at its clos ing session Wednesday in Washington, D. C. Gen. Rilea, as Oregon's top ranking delegate to the na tional conference, extended an official invitation to the delegates on behalf of the Governor to visit Oregon next year and attend the Cen tennial celebration, the Gov ernor said.

She's jealous of all my intellectual interests. Lillian F. - My husband and I have been married five years and have two children. We have been quite happy ex cept for one thing, which we constantly fight about. It is his friendship with a particu lar girl he knew at college. -Al admitted to me that at one time before he met me he believed he was in love with this girl. However, nothing ever came of it. But he kept in touch with her over the years. Recently he helped her get a job in our city and they have been seeing one another regularly. He says their rela tionship . is strictly platonic and I believe him. But I feel this girl is really very aggres sive and wants to win him from me. Albert F. - I feel Lillian is letting her jealousy run away with her in more ways than one. Unfortunately, she was not able to go to college, and she has often shown her bit terness about this. She is al most as jealous of my intel lectual interests and of my men friends as she is of Dianne. This girl is a very unusual person and I really value my contact with her. She has given me a lot of encourage ment to do some of the work I want to do, but lack the self confidence to begin. I can't talk to Lillian about these things because she really doesn't understand them at all. Whenever Lillian hears me telling something to Dianne that I never told her, she goes crazy with rage.

It is natural for any partner in a marriage to want to share the strongest interests and deepest aspirations of his or her partner. Any sincerely lov ing man or woman would feel hurt at being systematically excluded from a mate's most important confidences. Albert admits he goes to Dianne for encouragement in something very important to him. We suspect he has been getting flattery, rather than deeply considered encourage ment, from this girl.

Perhaps he is somewhat afraid to confront his wife with his ideas, not because she would n't understand them, but be cause she understands too well his desire to shine without, putting himself to the test. Lillian should try to con tain her jealousy of Albert's educational background and make an effort to share some of his interests. It is a mistake to feel that the secrets of knowledge can only be attain ed at a formal institution. Albert, on the other hand, should recognize that he has been very crude in allowing his wife to feel so left out of things. If his attitude toward her were truly loving and considerate, she might feel pride in his attainments. (Copyright 1958. General Features Corp.)
