Brookings Urges Joint
Congress Funds Group

A report made public today by
the Brookings Institution recon-
mends the establishment Of joint
congressional committee on appro-
priations, with a permanent staff of
specialists on budgetary and finan-
cial affairs.
The joint committee would be
similar to the Joint Committee on
Internal Revenue Taxation and
would end the present system of
compromises by which the in
dependent House and Senate COM
mittees usually reach agreement on
budgetary matters.
DR.. Daniel T. Selko prepared the
study on which the report was based
and stressed congressional respon-
sibility in the preparation of the
budget.
The report suggested that the
clerical staffs of the present COM
mittees be increased, even if a joint
committee was not created.
In discussing the revenue system
of the Government, the report sug-
gests that all political appointees in
the Bureaus Of Customs and Internal
Revenue be replaced with trained,
permanent workers and that these
bureaus be removed from the Treas
ury Department. Both changes are
suggested to protect the Treasury
from partisan political influences.
The report further urged that the
accounting and reporting system of
the Government be overhauled and
urged that Congress should retain
tight supervision of the Nations
purse.

together with civil and religious lib

Throughout the ages, these three
institutions have gone hand in hand" /"
Prentis said in his broadcast. "They
are inseparable. When one goes,
all go :. the spiritual principle of
the sanctity of the individual soul is
the foundation of our entire Ameri-
can system of government, economics

Prenti added "this mobilization

Rallies Industry To Support
Principal Of Private Enterprise

The National Association of Man
ufacturers called on American in
dustrialists to mobilize" in coun-
try-wide campaign for the principle
of private enterprise.
III. w. Prentis, Jr., association
president, sounded the keynote by
asserting that ''henceforth, industry
will decline to turn the other
cheek. 1t viii meet unjustiied at
tacks with undeniable facts, always
courteously, but nonetheless mill
family and decisively."
In radio address, Prentis cou-
pied announcement of the drive with
a denunciation of national econ
omic planning.
Under such planning, he said,
you would have here eventually just
what you see in the dictator-con-
trolled countries &. :"
Explaining the campaign in a
statement supplementing his broad
cast, Prentis said 5000 association
members would enlist 10000 other
manufacturers in drive to impress
on the American mind this one ele-
ment:
"The fundamental American prin-
ciple that private enterprise is in
separately linked with our representa-
tive democracy and traditional civil
and religious liberties"
Industry and private enterprise,
he asserted, "will never be fully un-
derstood as long as the confidence
destroying attacks of demagogic de-
tractors are allowed to go unchal-
lenged."

Held In High Esteem

The death yesterday of Miss Grace L. White, supervisor of the city's Public Welfare Department, occasioned many expressions of sorrow and sympathy for the deceased's family. One of the youngest of our city officials Miss White in the brief period she had spent at the head of her department had won both confidence and esteem. She was not merely an efficient director, but highly sympathetic and understanding person, well suited for the exacting work in which she was engaged.
 Waterbury will go far before finding the same type of person to assume man. agement of the Public Welfare Depart ment. Of recent years more and more importance has been attached to the op- eration of this bureau of the city govern ment owing to conditions that have existed here, as elsewhere. Not merely must the head of such department be competent to handle the many and diverse problems thrown up each day, but training in dealing with them must have been considerable.
 Many personal friends of Miss White were aware of the seriousness of the ill., ness which had incapacitated her ot recent months, but to the general public her death came as a sudden shock. The obvious serious purpose of her endeavors coupled with her youth had made her not merely a great favorite among other off cials and workers, but had enhanced greatly her reputation in the state and the East as a welfare directress.

Keep Youngsters Out of Trouble

Commission of a crime is much easier the second time. After anyone has once wandered off the Straight and Narrow, he is likely to keep popping back into courtrooms. The chief concern of law enforcement agencies and Soclologlsts today is to keep youngsters away from that first offense. And the young peo- pie who must be guarded most closely are those between the ages of 16 and 21, according to report just issued by the American Law Institute and based on study by Dr. ThorSten Sellin, University of Pennsylvania criminologist.
 Associations with criminals, bitterness and contempt for the law, feeling of social stigma attached to the initial arrest are all held contributory to subsequent brushes with authority. The feeling de- velops that there can't be much more to lose and that possibly the crime-does- not-pay adage isn't all it's cracked up to be. The law institutes study was concen- trated in New York City, but the results represent cross-section of conditions among youthful criminals. In the 16-21 group, for example, 69 per cent of those brought into court during 1929 for prop erty offenses were first offenders. For sex crimes, the percentage was 81; for property crimes involving the person, such as robbery, it was 57; for assault, 79; for civic offenses, 66, and for homicides, 55.
 Iii 1888, the report indicated, more than one-third of the prisoners paroled had committed their first offenSes when they were between the ages of 16 and 21. A survey of prisoners received at Sing Sing penitentiary in 1880 and 1881 established that 25 per cent of the incoming prisoners had committed their first crimes during this same period in their lives The most disturbing feature about the report is the implication that crime is not being quar- antined among group of established criminals. Each year the ranks of crime are being increased with new recruits, many of them scarcely out of knee pants, in proportions that may vary from 25 to 81 per cent, in some categories of crime.
 Most youngsters are persuaded to try their hand at crime either because they are idle and therefore restless or because they need money. The solution to the crime problem, then, is obvious but diff ficult: Give them something to do that will bring them money-give them jobs
 No one is criminal at birth. He becomes on because of the con- ditions under which he grows up. Active young people must be given wholesome outlets for their vitality, or they will find unlawful methods of re- leasing their nervous energy. They must also be assured some hope of the future. Inability to find employment provides only bleak prospects. They turn to crime largely because even such a precarious existence looks better than unprofitable inactivity. The crime problem is defi- nitely linked with the unemployment problem, and it cannot be divorced Lads with jobs have neither the time nor the disposition to plot and execute crimes against property. Crimes of passion will not be as abundant if youngsters are given a chance to live normal lives.
