WHAT MAKES YOUNG cR1M1NALst

Is the unwillinsness of the young
men of to-day to do manual labor re-
sponsihle for the prevalence OF crime
among youth?
Judge Thomas c. O'Sullivan, of the
Court OF General Sessions IN New
York. thinks that the question must
be answered afirmatively.
He has specially Investigated the
large number of youthful prisoners ar
raiGned in his court. and he finds that
the creator proportion OF them are
the sons OF respectable and hard
working parents. who had sent their
sons to school until they were sixteen
or seventeen years old. These boys,
however, learned no trade, had never
had any regular employment of any
sort and showed distinct dislike for
manual labor
Judge osullivnn thus summed up
the causes for the increase OF crime
among young men in New York City
"a lack of religious or moral in
struction in the schools.
Reduced wages. which have, de-
privcd parents and their children OF
former comforts or Injuries.
a dissemination on the part of
young men to work. partly because or
their having been spoiled at home and
partly because of their own realiza
tion Of the inadequacy OF tho wages
they viii get in the trades.
Bad associations or the streets IT
night"
what Is true of New Yorl, is true
of other cities. Unfamiliarity with
real work makes for familiarity with
vice and crime.
