WILD PARTIES NOT
 CAUSING DECLINE
Modem Ctaeraion No Worse
 Than Any Other

Sacramento, Cal. Sept. g (uP) Gin fixes. wild parties, excessive smoking and riotous living-deciared by moralists to be responsible for the rapid increase in juvenile delin- quency-in reality have nothing to do with it.
 That is the opinion of Dr. H. M Adler of Chicago noted criminolo- gist. who conferred with the cover- nor here after meeting with the California commission for the study of problem children.
 It's a mistake to think that hoys and girls of today are any worse than in previous generations" said Dr. Adler. ''As a matter of truth, juvenile delinquency is on the de- crease. all over the nation. The present so-called crime wave, in California and elsewhere, is largely a result of a general loos- ening of the social structure of the country following the World War. It is not problem of morals, nor of mind. nor of physiology"
 California should have state di- vision devoted exclusively to the study of behavioristic disorders in children. the Chicago expert sug- gested. Such indications are the surest proof of criminal tendencies
 The critical age ia young peo- nln ic tA he is during this stage that our most dangerous criminals are developed. Our purpose in searching for crimi- nal tendencies in children is to pro tect the community. and make it . safe place to live in. The state doesn't want revenge; it wants adequate protection.
 Schools should be on the alert for criminal tendencies in children. When a little child enjoys being cruel to animals. it is time to watch that child. Callousness and cruelty are sure indications of a criminal instinct.
 "An ideal solution would he . two-way state institution-betWeen the state reform school and the state prison where individuals who are not hardened criminals could either be restored to society quickly. or placed behind the bars.
 Parole is nor, successful than probation. because it continues penal authority and watchfulness after the prisoner is released"

Hoover Watches south

The south appears to have been much in Mir. Hoovers thoughts dur ing the present week. Interrupting preparation of the speech he will deliver on October 6 in Tennessee, he received a delegation of first voters from Virginia, and told them that the republican party was big enough to look after the needs of every section of the country.
 The present plans of the repub- ;ican nominee will not take him be- yond the border country but other republican speakers of prominence are to go into the heart of the south. Where the usually placid po- litical waters arc still in comlnotion. Already Senator Borah has been s,umping through the border states and Hoover's running mate. Senator Curtis, has returned 10 the same disputed sector after swing through the vest.
 In Missouri Curtis pathway cross ed that of the democratic vice presi- dcniial nominee, Senator Robinson. The situation there is so intriguing that both sides are willing to spend freely of their best talent.

civic orsanizaticns of the community and receiving the support and CO., operation of the mercantile and di- versified interests of the municipali- ty." said Steve Robb, president of the Chamber of Commerce today.
 "New Britain is known as the Hardware Center of the World, yet in our own city, there is a great deal that we who make our homes and earn our livelihood here, may learn about our city. It is to promote that spirit of knowing more about our community and to further inculcate in the minds of our citizens, that exalted sense of civic pride which all of us should manifest. that this ex- position Is being arranged and spon- sored.
 "The welfare associations Of New Britain will exhibit the progress of their activities in their respective fields of activity as their contribution to the exposition: the civic clubs are doing their share in describing to the people of the city. what they are accom- plishing in their work, and from the business standpoint, the mercantile and other business inter ests will show the products manu- factured here, as we'll as other na- tionally known products carried.
 This. the first Home Progress Exposition in the history of the city is deserving of the support of the entire community and the Chamber of Commerce hopes that everybody will take the opportunity to visit the Stanleys Arena on Church street when the exposition opens next We'd nesday, October and continues through until Saturday night.

RUM, RELIGION AND
 FARM BIG ISSUES

remained silent on all of these sub | jects as he conferred with his aides at his Washington headqua uarters. The reply to Senator Bruce was made by his secretary. George Akerson. who said Mir. Hoover had not taken a drink since he became constitu- tional officer of the government. Chairman Work and Senator Moses replied to some of Governor Smiths Mrs. Wiliebrandt made her own de- nial
 This silence on Mir Hoover's part did not go unchallenged by Cover nor smith. but thus far the challengr has gone unheeded. At Helena the democratic nominee sought to ad- dress himself to his opponent on the l subject of Teapot Dome. and declar- ed he wanted no answer except from Mir. Hoover himself.
 Sn,it, Loudly Welcomed A constant roar of welcome and acclaim has accompanied Governor smith throughout his western swing. Whether the personality under the brown derby has made a dent in re- publican hopes, and whether the cheering can be translated into votes remains for the ballot boxes to dis close. but certainly this visit to the western country has coinciIed with certain developments which have given no aid or comfort to the re- publicans.
 Senator Norris Of Nebraska. an in dependent republican and a. poii,ica. leader Of parts. particularly in the northern farm states, yentured the opinion that Smith's Omaha speech ought to satisfy everyone who favor cd the principle of the McNary- Haugen bill and that his Denver speech on water power was the most progressive" ever delivered by candidate for the presidency. Nor ris disagrees with the Smith prohibit ton specifications, but regards water power as the paramount issue.
 Wisconsin's Pace Questioned
 In Wisconsin, here Smith speaks tonight, another republican. Senator | Blaine, announced that he could not support Hoover, while the same state committee member who is objecting to Mrs. Willebrandt advised his su- psriors that impartial observers now were placing Wisconsin in the dem- ocratic column.
 From North Dakota a warning of serious trouble among the farmers was given Mir. Hoover himself by Senator Frazier, and at the same tune the North Dakota governor, Walter E. Maddock. was telling Gov ernor smith that so per cent of the farmers of the state were ready to
 the democratic ticket.
 ne republican retort to these con- tirued signs of fermcnt in tie farm belt is that much time remains be- fore election day, and that none of it will be wasted. Many repub- lican politicians believe their nom- inee will say something further about farm relief. and that he is likely to say it in the farm states. : in the course of an expanded speak ing trip just at the close of his cam- pcign.

|C0LLETT AND VAN
 VIE IN FINALS
Wom,n's Coli Championship to Be Decided oa Coarse Today

Hot Springs, Va. Sept. 2S.-O4- Two widely different roads leading to the woman's golf shampionship of the United States. converged to- day for the final ss-hole stretch. The youthful Virginia Van Vie of Chicago, after a four day struggle against the most difficult opposition. reached the cross roads with Glenna Collett of Providence. who came through the second bracket in the manner of a steam roller. The covet- ed crown lay at the end of the sttu greater test Of endurance.
 Miss Collect, probably the longest driver among the women golfers. encountered for the Arst time in the tournament an opponent who might force her to the limit from the tees. Rut it was in, another department of the game that the Chicago star ex- ceIled-the long iron to the green. There was little fault to find in the short game of either player.
 After the first day of the tourna- ment. when she defeated Mrs. Stew art Hanley of Detroit. 2 and $, Miss Van Vie found the going difficult. and her endurance and fighting heart received a rigid test. It took 19 holes to dispose of Edith Outer. of Reading. and the full IS to out. distance Marion Rollins of New York. but most difficult of all was the great uphill semi-final battle against Mrs. Dorothy Campbell Hurd of Philadelphia Mrs. Hurd is rated among her associates as one of the greatest match players in the game.
 In contrast to these gruelling matches. Miss Collect is yet to play the last two holes in competition, al- though the cards turned in by her opponents have frequently showed sub-par figurea The long hitting Providence girl first disposed of Beatrice Gottlieb of New York. five and three; then conquered Mrs. J. S Disston of Philadelphia. s and [. It was in the third round that she reached her best form. defeating Virginia Wilson of Chicago the Canadian champion. three and two. In the semi-finals she was out in even l's or six under par, against Mrs. George H. Stetson of Philadel- phia. herself a former champion. and won four and three despite the bril- liant finish with which Mrs Stetson won three holes and halved two on the incoming nine.
 Miss Van Vie, who will be 20 in February. had thrice failed to win the crown she sought today. while her opponent had been acclaimed champion in 1922 and 1925.

ably rest all of the remainder Of the week before starting out on h., second swing of stumping. The itinerary for his tour still Is in an indefinite stage.
 By spending two nights in Mii- waukee, Gov. Smith and his political lieutenahts planned to make the best of their odd moments getting some first hand information on his pros poets in Wisconsin in November.
 The late Senator La Toilette car ried the state four years ago rum ming on an independent presidential ticket and it is the old followers of this republican progressive upon whom democratic managers are banking heavily to aid Smith. Wis consin normally has been republican in presidential elections. although Cleveland corralled its electoral votes in 1892 and Wilson carried 1t in 1912. with Roosevelt and Taft in the field.
 Young Dob" La Toilette. who is up for reelection to the senate this year. and Senator Blaine. republi- cans of the so-called progressive school. are looked upon hopefully by Smith managers for assistance in Wisconsin and other northwestern states in view of the formers state- ment that he could not support the republican platform and the latter'a pronouncement of this week that he would not support or vote for Hoover.
 Smith supprters also are count ing on large proportion Of the German vote in this state. as well as that of the Scandinavian elements. and hope to poll enough votes in Milwaukee. which incidentally has a socialist mayor and the only socialist representative in congress. to offset possibility of republican gains in the rest of the state.
 John Callahan. democratic nation al committeeman. who accompanied Gov. Smiths party from st. Paul to Milwaukee. has informed the nominee that he need have no fears about Wisconsin for it was ''in the bag" for him inc day he was nominated. Others. however. arc not so sanguine and feel the presidential contest here will he a stiff one.
