Plumley asserted. saying there were not
so many outside interests then to re-
move young people from the family in

more than anything else, for the ex-
cited viewpoint Of youth which sends
many young people into crime for the
thrill of it.
Fight on Crime Urged.
She urged women to fight crime by
concentrating their activities on i'm
provement of home life.
The speaker also discussed similarity
of the present era with that during
which this Nation was formed. The
years around 1889, she said, marked o
period Of political decentralization and
the present time is a period of economic
decentralization. She emphasized re-
sponsibility of the minority unselfishly
to support the President in his effort
toward recovery.
Another speaker, Miss Henrietta At
titon, sixth deputy commissioner of the
New York Police Department, said the
only way to prevent crime is to prevent
juvenile delinquency. She told the
women that statistics at the Crime Pre-
vention Bureau in New York show most
professional criminals have juvenile
records
