was learned that weathermen

OF Misuse Of Term
Child Delinquency

A warning that use of the term
Juvenile delinquency" in connec-
ton with the programs Of such
organizations as the Boys Club and
Boy Scouts tends to discourage
attendance by youngsters looking
for wholesome recreation was made
last night by Charles M. Fyfe. di-
rector of the Boys Club of Wash
ington, before the Board of Educa-
tion's Advisory Committee on War;
time and Postwar Problems of the
Child.
Mr.. Fyfe, who spoke in connec-
ton with a report by subcommit-
tee on recreation which dealt with
activities of private, nonproflt rec
reational agencies, explained that
young people are apt to resent being
associated with programs designed
to correct misbehavior.
The subcommittee report pointed
out that most agencies dealing with
youth have had wartime problems
aggravated by the exodus of trained
and competent personnel to military
service and other fields. Under the
circumstances" it asserted, "unnec-
essary and unwarranted destruc-
tive criticism of such institutions
does not tend to assist in their ad-
justment for increased service.
Action Rather Than Words.
I'VE must bear. in mind that
children and youth read the papers,
listen to the radio and overhear
adult discussions" it continued.
Thus, it would appear to be de-
sirable and necessary to correct
mistakes, cease nonconstructive
criticism and substitute action for
words"
Full use of existing facilities be-
fore the projection of new programs
to meet wartime problems of the
child was major concern of the
subcommittee, it was pointed out by
Milo F. Christensen, superintendent
of the District Recreation Board.
There are many recreational IA
cilities in Washington not now being
utilized to full capacity" the sub
committee reported.
Mr.. Christensen and Mr.. Fyfe.
members of the subcommittee. pre-
sented the report in the absence of
the chairman, c. Melvin Sharpe.
Discusses Behavior Survey,
Robert L. Haycock, superin-
tendent Of public schools, discussed
the recent survey of the behavior
problems of pupils in the elemen-
tary schools which involved a study
of about $4,000 pupils from to 12
years of age based on reports from
more than l,500 teachers.
Reports from teachers indicated
definitely that the wartime situation
has developed conditions in the
home and in the community that
affected adversely the general well
fare OF young boys and girls" Mr.. |
Haycock reported. In an abnor-
NAL environment pupils seem to
have been developing an unfor-
tunate feeling of independence of
action and an attitude toward law
and order that showed indications
of lack of self-control and be-
havior outbreaks that represent an
unfortunate instability"
Mr.. Haycock called special atten-
ton to important findings which
indicated that one of the most seri-
GUS factors in the social life of the
children is the large number of
broken homes. THE survey indi-
Gates that more than 6,4O0 pupils

he added. that in approximately 20
per cent of the homes for white
pupils both parents are at work and
that about one-third of the pupils
in colored schools have both parents
at work during the day. ALSO it
was reported by the teachers that
nearly 5000 pupils are actually living
with persons other than their
parents" he said.

Pointing out that principals and
teachers have been active in pro-
viding preventive and remedial
measures to offset the delinquency
problem, Mr.. Haycock said that
