in Oreron's basic rule soeed law.
This rule, as phrased

"The key to proper speed is simple vehicular

you are charged with full respong)ility for safe travel

By FRANK JENKINS
Big modern problem:
Juvenile delinquency.
Big modern question:
What to do about it?
THIS much-discussed prob
lem came before the West
ern Governors Conference in
Seattle recently and Governor
Pat Brown of California of
fered a solution that is quite
interesting in these modem
days. He told his fellow gov
ernors: "The best way to keep teen
agers out of trouble is to LET
THEM HAVE JOBS. Even
good boys get Into trouble
when they do not have any
thing to do. We should modify
our laws so as to make it
EASY for (Children to get jobs
instead of making it difficult
for giem to find employ
ment." He added:
"The trouble is that on one
hand we hear the argument
that work is hard on children
and on the other hand we
hear objections from the la
bor people who argue that if
children are permitted to
work it will reduce employ
ment opportunities for older
people. Personally, 1 feel that
these objections, on both sides,
can be met if we will stand
firmly together as gover
nors." IT'S a problem. There can
be not doubt of that.
It's tr MODERN problem
because in this fabulous mod
ern world EVERY HOUSE
HOLD HAS ITS FULL
QUOTA OF SERVANTS.
In a household full of serv
ants, it has always been dif-
dicult to find work enough
for the children to do to keep
them out of mischief.

For movie-goers who like
the stark, realistic approach
I would recommend "Fungi

For sports fans, the depart

All the films are available

servants. Very few people in
these days can afford serv
ants. The cost of living is
mucn too high for anything
of that sort. Servants in this
modern world are only for
the filthy rich."
WAIT a minute:
" When you need water,
what do you do? Do you send
the children to the well for a
bucketful of it? Of course not.
You call on a modern servant
and turn the tap. When you
want a fire to cook a meal,
do you send the children out
to split kindling and chop
wood? Certainly not. You turn
a switch, or twist a valve,
and a modern servant "elec
tricity or gas) builds the fire
and supplies the fuel.
And so on. Our modern
servants do most of the work
and leave little for the chil
dren to do.
THERE'S your problem.

Well, as Governor Pat says,
we shouldn't put obstacles in
the way of children who want
to work and are willing to
work and who, as he suggests,
will be far better off In every
way if they are permitted to
work. Isaac Watts, some two
centuries ago, put it flatly and
plainly when he wrote in his
Divine Songs:

Viet Nam cannot tell DrtsA

In the light of the country's

But the events in Korea
