Crime Cost More Than
Education in 1910

Two hundred thousand children
in the schools of America in 1910
will soon be joining the ranks of
criminals, according to an author
ity on research. This is more start
ling than the common reports that
the great majority of criminals in
the prisons are less than % years
old and large number are less
than 20.
More than four times as much is
being paid for crime in the United
States than for education. even in
GLIDING kindergarten and college,
10 billions of dollars for crime
billion SO million dollars for
education.
Estimates, 1940)
Preventive Measures
1. Education of parents. Impuls-
es for good or evil begin in the
homes.
Z. More Fairgrounds. Statistics
prove that crime is less in neigh
borhoods where there are play
grounds.
3. Cooperation of Parent Teach
er Associations with police. A
monthly conference among leaders
of local organizations with local
police with a view of precaution
and prevention of crime. Coopera-
ton among all social workers and
agencies which are doing con-
structive and protective work.
4. Protect first offenders. The
first offender is not yet criminal.
The treatment of first offenders
has made criminals.
Protect the youth of America
from crime now. NOW!
