Major Crintes in United States Set Time Washington - (IIPII - FBI Director J. Edgar Hoover re ported Thursday that major crimes committed in the Unit ed States last year rose by 3 per cent to a new all-time peak. Hoover especially deplored the increase in arrests of youngsters under 18 in recent years. He called it "one of the major problems plaguing law enforcement" and said that unless the trend is re versed, it will result in "se rious consequences for the fu ture of our country." The FBI chief said his agen cy's uniform crime reports show there were an esti mated 1,926.090 serious crimes committed last ycar an.average of four every min ute. Crimes against property -robery, burglary, larceny and auto theft - increased by 4 per cent in 1961. Crimes against the person - such as murder, rape and aggravated assault - showed an average 1 per- cent gain. Outstrips Population Growth Since the nation's popula tion rose by 2 per cent last year, the national crime rate showed a 1 per cent increase. But Hoover said the rate of growth of crime has outstrip ped population growth by nearly five to one over the past five years.

Statistics reported by 7, 800 law enforcement agencies showed that arrests of boys and girls under 18 increased by 4 per cent in 1961. These arrests made up 15 per cent of all criminal cases last year, Hoover said. "Young people were in volved in 59 per cent of lite auto theft arrests. 47 per cent of the burglaries, 48 per cent of the larcenies, 22 per cent of the robberies, 17 per cent of the forcible rapes, 12 per cent of the aggravated as saults and 8 per cent of the i murders," the FBI said in its breakdown on arrests. 71 Policemen Killed Other figures in the 1961 report showed: -About eight of every 100 policemen were assaulted on the job. There were more than 13,000 incidents of this kind. A total of 71 law en forcement officers were kill ed in the line of duty. -The 8,600 murders last year represented a decline of 4 per cent from 1960. Rob beries were down by 1 per cent and the number of rapes were unchanged at 16,010. -Average number of police men per 1,000 inhabitants was Page 2-A kjTRIBUNE FRIDAY.

Chet Holi field, (D-Calif.) would present the committee's approval of the plan to the House as a committee amendment to the AEC authorization bill. The legislation is scheduled for action Monday or Tuesday. The House last year reject ed an earlier proposal for fed eral construction of the pro ject. Rep. James Van Zandt (R Pa ), who led the successful fight to kill the project then, voted merely "present" in Thursday's closed-door meet ing. Rep. Craig Hosmcr, (R Calif.) joined Van Zandt in voting present rather than :n opposing the bill. Only one vote was cast against it. That was by Sen. Albert Gore (D-Tenn.). The amendment, as pro posed by Jackson, included a requirement that WPPSS, a municipal corporation, offer at least 50 per cent of the 1.9 - unchanged from 1960. -An estimated 326,200 auto thefts were reported to police last year - one stolen car every 1.5 minutes. Hoover, summing up the figures, declared: "We have yet to learn as a nation that law enforcement is every body's business and that crime can only be curtailed by ef fective law enforcement agen cies backed by aroused citi zens."

However, he said all had agreed to accept it in order to help gain approval of tha project. Hurd sent telegrams to th president of six private util ities in Washington, Oregon, Idaho and Montana offering the power. He said none had yet responded. Jackson said the action by the committee had created a basis for proceeding with the proposal, which has been hanging fire for many years. He said the amendment, it accepted by Congress, would meet objections of the Gen eral Accounting Office, which had held that a contract be tween the AEC and WPPSS would require congressional approval.
