Poverty
Many people believe, with Clar-
ence Darrow, that .'Most people are
sent to jail because they are poor, !"
the contention being that person
who Jacks material needs viii. take
the things he needs to satisfy his
wants. While it is probably true
that the poverty stricken lack skilled
attorneys and are likely to become
convicted and given the maximum
penalty for delinquent or criminal
act than persons in the higher IN
come brackets, the determination Of
the relationship between poverty and
crime i extremely difficult. In the
first place it is not easy to draw a
line between the poverty stricken
and those who are not poverty y-strick-

some are the responsibility or or

recent findings on delinquency have
been reported BY Healy and Bronner
in their book, New Light on Delin-

A study of about $4,000 prisoners
who were committed to prison in

Of the general population.
Wealth
The theory that our enormous in
crease in wealth itself is one Of the
underlying causes of crime and de-
linquency is exploded when we find
that the relationship between the ex-
istence Of wealth and the number
Of crimes against poverty is negli-

been clearly determined. AT resent
it is possibly to deduce that both
poverty and delinquency are symp-
tons Of underlying difficulties, and at
most a superficial relationship exists
between poverty and delinquency.
Ii is true that the same areas which
produce our major delinquency prob

but it Is equally true that there is
.arge proportion Of thepopulation
which is economically self-dependent
and is also delinquent.

CAUSES OF DELINQUENCY

Many Of the early investigators
Of delinquency sought single cause
Of anti-social behavior. Some would
have it that criminals are born that
way and that society neels only
to eliminate the defective families.
Others have centered attention upon
poverty, feeblemindness, disease and
other so-called unit causes. In COM
paratively recent years penologists,
psychiatricts, police, social workers,
and others have inclined toward the
viewpoint that delinquent tendencies
result from many factors, the actual
delinquency being merely symptom
of the real problem. some Of these

Jail Two After
Soldier Injured

An unconvincing story of how a
Fort Lewis soldier received severe
injuries kept two other men behind
bars in the city Jail Monday as
police sought to establish their
connection with the case.
After physicians at the Pierce
County hospital removed bits of
splintered glass from several two
inch gashes in Harold L. Barkers
scalp. the 39-year-old soldier was
removed to the fort hospital for
more treatment.
Bankers condition was brought
to police attention early Monday
morning when two men drove to
police headquarters with him. The
two said they had found him lying
near the roadway a short distance
from the Seattle-Tacoma bridge.
Barker's nose appeared to be
broken, and he was bleeding pro-
fusely.
Grilled by police, the two ad-
mitted that Barker was their COM
panion. and was hurt in fight.
One. Robert w Adams. another
soldier. said he struck Barker with
his fist, but police found parts of
a broken bottle on the floor of the
car and believed the bottle was
smashed over the victims skull.
Adams was booked for investi-
CATION. The other man, Thomas II.
Cupit. 1856 Pacific ave, was
booked on a charge of drunkenness
and also held for investigation.

Police Catch
Many Motorists

Motorists ran the gamut in traf-
fic violations over the weekend,
police said Monday.
Police said George V. Howard,
Rt. 3 box 224, explained he was
in a hurry and mo traffic was in
sight, anyway" when he was
ticketed for failure to make an ar
terial stop at So. Saith and Pacific.

rections by car parked almost in
the center of the street at 18th
and Commerce Saturday. The
triple parked car won a ticket for
Jack c. Kajiwara. box So. Orillia,
Wash. charged with blocking traf-
fic. H. X. Carbon, 4405 No. 18th
st.. who allegedly left his car
parked double for an hour and a
half at the same place drew
similar ticket.
The neutrality-suspicious. speed of
Dix A. Liddle. 1893 No. Steele St.
attracted the attention of officers
Saturday who said Liddle ex-
planned he was trying to get to
South Tacoma before store-closing
time. His disregard of traffic re-
suited in reckless driving charge.
Charges were also filed against
Geo. Sigafoos. 80, arrested Satur-
day evening when he was halted
by Officer Rick johnson at So.
Seth and Pacific, and against Ray
Gentry, Tacoma, nabbed by Officer
