ment: Warden Lewis N. Lawes of Sing Sing Prison; Edward P. Mul. rooney, New York state commits sioner of correction; Byrnes Mac- Donald, director of the juvenile aid bureau of the New York police de. partment, and Judge Anna M. Kross, New York City magistrate, will be among tho speakers.
 The proceedings will be opened by Mayor Fiorello II. La0uardia of New York after Q welcome from Mrs. ogden Reid, vice.president of the Herald Tribune. Following each talk, the floor will Do opened to questions and discussion 50 that the speakers may be of particular help tN delegates in solving their own community crime problems.
 "This first round table talk on crime has been planned as Q result of numerous requests for preiimin. ary panels on immediate questions in addition to the annual forum on current problems" according to Mrs. William Brown Meloney, editor of This week, who has been chair. man Of the yearly Herald Tribune forums since their inception in 1880 and who will preside ct the round table.
 "The object of the discussion will be to outline the status of crime in the United States as 1t affects the youth of the iation," she said. Specialists in crime agree that to- day we face Q national crisis which cannot be controlled except with the full understanding and cooperation of the public.
 "The facts on the status of crime are alarming, but the problem ig particularly acute for boys and girls between the ages of ten and twenty. Statistics show that the average age of criminals in Sing Sing is nineteen years.
 We hope the round table will be of assistance to leaders of organi- zations in their understanding of the many aspects of juvenilt crime and in the correlation of their group programs with other agencies in tho field," Mrs Malcney de- ciared.
 Part of each of the four sessions vii be broadcast over stations WIZ and WEAF through the courtesy of the National Broadcasting Com- pany.

Catholics Dominant Note Authority Asserts Rev.
 Theodore BObilin

The Catholic religions dominant note is authority, declared Rev. Theodore 0. Bobilin of the First Methodist church yesterday morn- ing In Q sermon ct the First Con- gregational church. Rev. Dr. James D. Gregg of the First church spoke at the First Methodist church. "A New Person for c New Age." was Rev. MT. Bohilin's topic while Rev. pr. Gregg spoke on "Transference of Friendship"
 While the Catholic religions doni- inant note Is authority. he said, Protestants represent the youth ate titude toward authority of the el- ders and Protestantism lists as It's attributes freedom and independ- ence. Discussing the title "Father" used in connection with priests of the Catholic church, he said the practice goes back to the name Pope" which may be traced tt the early Anglo-Saxon "Papa." Both Catholicism and Professionalism have in the past and will in the future meet Q real need, he asserted.
 Rev. Dr. Gregg in his sermon urged an effort to increase 1ne's circle of friends in spite of tkM risk involved and the need of faith.
