Senate Group 10 Study
wartime DELINQUENCY

A special Senate subcommittee on
wartime health and education will
attempt to establish the facts OF
juvenile delinquency in relation to
the war effort and to recommend
remedies, in hearings this week.
Senator Pepper, Democrat, of

that although the subject has be-
come one of grave national concern,
there seems to be no compilation of
accurate and complete information
on the causes, extent, or result of
delinquency"
Our preliminary study of the
question" he said, indicates that
prevalent attitudes range from the
hysteria of those who treat the
problem as one purely of police dis

The RED CROSS

The Red Cross is the only pure
ly secular agency in the world en-
trusted with the care of the
wounded and the dying on both
sides of a battlefront. The allied
nations have no monopoly on the
Red Cross, for it functions as well
in the axis countries. 1t need not,
and actually does not, recognize
battle-fronts as barriers to its
ministers of mercy, because 1t has
no political or national purposes
in view. 1t operates for the bene-
fit of all men, regardless of race,
color or creed.
Though the Red Cross operates
in every land, whether friendly or
hostile, whether Christian or pa
gan, the spirit of its ministrations
is genuinely Christian. For per-
sons who are thoroughly imbued
with the splendid spirit of the Red
Cross accept and practice in their
work the truly exalted precept OF
! Christ: Love your enemies, dc
good to them that hate you"
"The Red Cross is on the
march, not to take lives, but te
save them and to mitigate human
suffering" That brief statement
taken from the official literature
of the organization summarize

They Betrayed
Their Country

The long delayed decision OF
the war labor board on the west
coast aircraft wage demands
grants partial increases but not
the large boost in rates request
ed Spokesman for the employees
in the industry say the workers
are sorely disappointed and the
union has called a massmeeting
for Sunday to discuss the situa-
ton and decide what to do about
it.
The problems involved in this
case appear to be unusually com
pick for the WLB took months to
resolve them and then divided
z to on the solution. We conse
quently can't presume to judge
the merits of the issue, but it is
plain that the Boeing airfraft
workers did not help their case
when they stopped work en- masse
few days since and demonstrat-
ed in downtown Seattle in an eff
fort to force quick decision
from the board.
By that action they forfeited all
right to sympathy and brought
angry condemnation down upon
themselves from all parts of the
nation and from none more Sc
verely than former fellow work
erse now serving in the armed
forces. One of these now serving
with tn air force in Texas, whose
letter of protest against the walk
out is quoted by the Seattle Post
Intelligencer. said,
1t may be ad sanced that at
this distance I do not know the
merits of this controversy. My
answer is that there are no
merits to work stoppage in
plane plants in war time.
That is the answer that every
true an honest citizen gives. 1t
is the right answer, the only an
swer, for work stoppage in the
making of any vital war material
is treason as criminal as desertion
in the face of the enemy.
Those who struck at Boeing's
or who strike in any war work
hurt their own cause, wrong ali
labor and betray their brothers,
sons and fellow citizens in the
armed services and the nation.
Such action can not be condoned
on any theory and as the casualty
lists pile up it will not be toler-
ated.

brought to Harborview hospital.
First of the priests to reach the
scene was Father Murphy, who
gave conditional absolution to as
many victims as he could reach.
Father Murphy later went to Ma
rine hospital and ministered to
the injured.
Father Cronin crawled on his
hands and knees through the
smoke and fire until he made his
way to the top floor of the flam-
ing packing plant and reached
the plane. There he gave condi-
tional absolution to those in the
bomber. Father Wilson, Wolter
and Squier also were active at
the scene, Drawing dangers, to ad-
minister to the injured and dying.
