YOUTHFUL CRIMES
SHOWN DECLINING
Children's Bureau Report After
Chicago Survey Replies to Ma
tional Wave Charge.

Figures to refute statements that
there Is a crime wave among the youth
of the Nation were issued today by the
Chil0ren'S Bureau of the Department
Of Labor. The bureau cited a sharp
drop in crimes committed in Chicago
by youths II to 20.
Census Bureau figures Of the country
at large also were quoted as showing
the number of 18-to-20-ye ar-old males
sent to penal institutions as decreasing
1T per cent in the Is years following
1910, which included the World War
period.
Chicago was taken as the sample for
the youth and crime" study because
it was the pioneer city in providing a
separate court for youths above juvenile
court age and below the age of ma
iority. Records dating back to 1915
were available to Dorothy Williams
Burke, who made the study under
supervision of Miss Katharine F. Len
root, assistant to the chief of the chill
dren's bureau.
Commenting that all but two States
have juvenile courts for children under
16, the report added that "the feeling
is developing that treatment different
from the usual criminal proceedings
should be extended to young people of
the next age group"
summary was made of 972 cases
selected for study, by Sampling at set
intervals the general run of the Boys
Court. Violations of liquor laws con-
stituted IL per cent of the charges.
Auto joyriding, with all its lawbreak-
ing possibilities Jumped together, COM
prised 1872 per cent of the whole group.
Four-fifths of all the charges were
based on disorderly conduct and Of
lenses against property. The delin-
quency cases decreased numerically
from 1900 in 1915 to 5,409 in 1925, the
report said.

The transcontinental glider pilot cut
loose from his tow-plane over Tucson
at 7:25 o'clock last night, just 10 hours
and 40 minutes from the time he left
San Diego, Calf.
Bobbing around like q cork ship on a

his lead-plane from Phoenix through a
stiff gale and landed here after dark
on a strange field, marked only by the
glare of automobile headlights. In the

made two landings-one at Yuma,

at Phoenix, where the first transcon-

Before noon the mountains of South

first refuelihg stop had been made and
the airtrain was riding a stiff breeze
toward Phoenix. Capt. Hawks said an
altitude of more than 5000 feet was
reached in clearing mountain ranges
en- route. At Phoenix he cut loose from
the lead rope at $500 feet and thrilled
spectators with a 30-minute glider dem

Today's hop called for refueling

of between 5000 and 5000 feet will be
necessary in order to pass over rugged

DAVIS SAYS HOME

Secretary James j. Davis of the De-
partment Of Labor, candidate for the
Republican nomination for Senator, re-
turned to Washington today from Pitts
burgh well satisfied with the manner
In which his campaign for the nominal
ton is progressing.
Mr.. Davis ridiculed the ctNrge of
Sedgwick Kistler, Democratic candidate
for nomination to hte Senate, that he,
Davis, was not eligible for election as
Senator from Pennsylvania because he
had been appointed in March, 1921 to
his present position as games j. Davis

seven years DID," said MIR. Davis.
Pennsylvania has been my home for
40 years. For the last % years I have

The records show that Mr.. Davis
was appointed Secretary of Labor by
the late President Harding as James
founder of Mooseheart Home and
School, in Illinois, and in 1906 became
director general Of the Loyal Order
of Moose.
In some quarters it has been sug-
geSted that perhaps President Harding,
In naming his cabinet on March 4,
1921, assigned Mr. Davis to Illinois so
as the better to distribute the cabinet
aphically. He had selected Andrew
w. Mellon of Pennsylvania to be Secre-
tary of the Treasury.
Mr.. Davis, however, does not take
this view. He said today he believed
it was the mistake of one of the clerks
at the White House. made at the time
his name was sent to the Senate.

born there, except those that were born
in Washington"
In the Congressional Directory, pub
lished in 1921, the ofhcial biography OF
the Secretary of Labor gives Pittsburgh,
Pa, as the home of Mr.. Davis and
each succeeding congressional directory
has carried the same home address.
Davises Lining Up.
This is the last day for filing nonni-
mating petitions in Pennsylvania. Sec
rotary Davis had one sheet submitted
to him, completed petition from Car
bon County, which bore only the names
of residents of that county whose sur.
name is Davis" One hundred and
eighteen "Davises" had signed this par
ticular petition, engaged in all kinds Of
occupations. The Davis family appears
to be lining up rather solidly for the
Secretary of Labor.
The Philadelphia Republican organi'
cation and the party organizations ir
| other cities, including Pittsburgh, are
lining up for Mr.. Davis. He said today
that he welcomed the support of al
voters in Pennsylvania.
II have never asked any one ir
Pennsylvania to vote for me-" declared
Mr.. Davis. THE tenders of support
have come to me voluntarily"

SUMMERALL URGES
DISCIPLINED ARMY
Asserts Loss of Panama
Canal Might Eliminate Navy
From Operations.

Army and Navy strategy in past and
possible wars is dealt with by Gen.
Charles P. Summerall, until recently
chief of staff Of the Army, in his an
nual report, just published, in which he
stresses the value of a well organized,
disciplined and of1icered force at the
beginning of = war. Loss Of the Panama
Canal, he asserts, might completely
eliminate the naval fleet Of the United
States in either the Pacific or Atlantic
Ocean, where it's presence was vitality
needed, while the capture of the Island
of Oahu, in the Hawaiian Islands,
which contains the big naval base ut
Pearl Harbor and the city of Honolulu,
would restrict Uncle Sans fleet to OPP
erations within limited radius from
the Pacific Coast.
Stresses Adequate Army.
Seeking to impress upon his supe-
riorS the need of an adequate standing
Army. Gen. Summerall said in his re-
port: :,
"A concentrated force of 10000 well
trained Regulars at the beginning OF
the Civil War would have won the bat
tie of Bull Run and, in all probability,
saved the Nation years of ensuing war
fare and many millions Of dollars.
The first expedition sent to France
by Great Britain in 1914 consisted OF
ave divisions of regulars, about loo, 1000
well trained men. In Is days after the
declaration of war this little force had
crossed the channel marched to the
front and fought the battle OF Mons.
Driven back with the French to the
southeast of Paris and subjected to all
the demoralizing influences OF long
retreat, its discipline and training en-
abled it to resume the offensive with
the French and take an important
part in the first battle Of the Marine.
In view of the critical situation OF the
French troops in the first campaign Of
the war, it cannot be doubted that the
British reinforcement Of 100000 men
was a very important, If not decisive,
factor in the issue of the battle.
Defense Of Panama Canal.
1.-THE Regular Army should assure
the ability of our naval forces to con-
centrate in either the Atlantic or Pa
cific, as required by the situation, b9
guaranteeing the defense of the Pan
anna Canal and our PACING base on
Oahu. The security Of these localities
is vital to successful naval action. Loss
of the Panama Canal might completely
eliminate the feet from operations in
the ocean where the situation demands
its presence. Loss of Oahu would re-
strict 1t to operations within limited
radius from the Pacific Coast Since
the situation may make 1t impossible
to dispatch reinforcements to our for
eign possessions at the outbreak of war,
their garrisons should be maintained
on Is nearly . war footing as the linn
tied strength Of the peace-time Regu-
lar Army will permit"
