At Percy Jones General Hospital
in Battle Greek, for instance, there
are approximately three times as

a RebirtIl of ENTERPRISE

The remedy was made clear by j.
Clifford Folger, president of the In
vestment Bankers Association, in
convention at Chicago.
The fnancier pointed out that
"the best encouragement for venture
capital will come with tax relief. -
He added: Based on present tax
larOs, no banker can conscientiously
put his clients in anything but risk
less Investments. Security offerings
in the last 10 years WiH tell the
story"
The banker then referred to the
predominance of senior bond obliga-
tons in public financing for a decade.
"The fow OF real venture CAPT
fal,"h concluded, "has slowed doDn
TO trickie. What rOe need is real
stream"
Mr.. Folger is right, and, if the
national economic problem is handled
constructively, the people will derive
rich dividends in the form of material
progress and resumption after the
war of rising living standards.

great potential promise for lifting

In order to attain the postwar

promptly to restore the system of

Santa for SeFVicemen

zach year at this time this news.
~ paper conducts the Santa for
Servicemen campaign to provide
Christmas gifts for servicemen and
women stationed in Michigan, many
of whom are far removed from their
own homes at Yuletide.
The first Santa for Servicemen
drive was launched in the fall of 194l,
before Pearl Harbor. Our aim then
was to send gifts to the Detroit and
Michigan men who had left home for
camps and naval stations throughout
the nation.
Since that suspicious beginning
when more than 10000 gaily-
wrapped Christmas packages were
donated by patriotic Detroiters-the
campaign has grown III importance
and scope until now it is one of the
most significant of the entire year.

T PROPOSE to inaugurate in the
i Lewiston municipal court, sys-
tenn of juvenile juries, worked out in
cooperation with the schools and the
probation office, which will give the
children of Lewiston an opportunity
to take a hand in the Juvenile de-
linquency program.
BY facing a jury of their peers,
their own classmates and school
mates, | believe the delinquents will
be made to understand that court
appearance is not huge joke, or a
method of becoming "big shot, as
many of them do at present.
| believe such a system will teach
-eHf boys and girls the fundamentals
of our court system and develop IN
them a higher respect for the law.
Our juvenile jury system will, | am
confident, not only discourage de-
linquency but result in the develop
ment of better citizens.
TN COURT work we can take
/ page from the school departments
of the nation. Schools have pointed
the way through development OF
student government groups. ju-
veniles have conducted their own
student governments under the lead
ership of teachers and principals and
with conspicuous success.
Juvenile juries call them kid
iuries if you like-represent new
approach to the juvenile delinquency
problem. Such juries will enable Ju-
veniles to tackle their own problems.
They may not arrive at the best solu-
tions at all times, but neither have
we in our adult courts.
1t is my contention that no child
should be sent to a reform school,
until every ether possible course has
been tried. Too many reform schools
have been found to breed crime.
T PLAN to conduct juvenile hear
L ings in an informal manner, while
preserving the general scheme of
Jury trials in our court system. Rules
of evidence, involved cross-examina-
tons, and legal technicahties will be
admitted only as they may aid par
ticular case. Legal details that must
be introduced will be simplified as
far as possible.
Panels of juvenile jurors will be
selected from Jury lists in both the
public and parochial schools. In each
