BY JAMES LEE ELIENWOOD
Executive Secretary of the New York State YMCA
DELINQUENCY is always the result when the forces
- of constructive agencies arrive TOO LATE WITH
TOO LITTLE And too often, in many sections of city,
the forces just do not arrive.
Previously have listed the five factors to keep in
mind when planning to youth The church, school,
home character building agencies and adequate municipal
controls If all the factors could operate at their best
there would be few delnquents.
But we must keep in mind two considerations They
must reach ALL THE YOUNG PEOPLE and they must
carry conviction when they meet them is right at this
point that losses are experienced
LRST of ALL only of these five factors the school,
l. comes close to reaching all.
The other four touch only certain groups The result
Is that there which serious effort is
being made to reach any considerable number.
In typical city after YOU have added all the groups
who served by character building agencies you still
find that the ma jOry is untouched For that reason
am in favor of board of planning i'm every community
Often such board would uncover enough dupica-
ton in areas to cover the neglected areas.
But as serious as is this spotty distribution, am
more convinced with the quality Of work being done
OF course, there should be youth centers and parks
and all kinds Of facilities
But in themselves these do not give the whole answer.
Good leadership and program planning is essential
GONE folks seem to feel that if you keep boy busy
- all the time ne will stay out of trouble That's prob
ably true. But what job that is Constant SUPERVISION
steady chaperonage, perpetual suspicion.
IF IN KEEPING HIM BUSY FOR TIME. YOU
CAN USE THAT TIME IN TEACHING HIM SOME
THING. YOU ARE REALLY DOING SOMETHING.
THIS IS THE WHOLE IDEA OF THE BETTER AGEN-
CIES THAT WORK WITH YOUTH
All along the line youth agencies have failed to
recognize that strengthening character is not casual
business
CITIES HAVE BEEN TOO LENIENT IN PER
MTTTING ADULTS TO MAKE MONEY AT THE EN-
PENSE OF YOUTH.

closes the church is concerned with
the possible outbreak of violence.

Health Needs Cited
In Joint Conference

Representatives Of the Council

in a conference on community
services at the Central Y.W.C.A.
last week.
Declaring that Detroit has one
Of the worse records for venereal
diseases in the United States,
Anthony TaShnick. business agent
for the Michigan Public EN-
ployees Council II tAFL) urged
that the responsible agencies
conduct an extensive program Of
sex hygiene to combat the prob
lem. MIR. Tashnick served on the
panel discussion on health serv-
ices.
JAMES ODEN, director OF COM
pensation and research at Ford
Local 900 made a plea for a prepaid
plan for medical care TO take
care Of those who do not qualify
for social aid but who are unable
to afford the necessary medical
care they need. Oden urged that
the only answer TO the problem
lies in some form OF group medical
insurance which will permit this
segment Of the population to stay
healthy and on their jobs.
DR.. Maurice Radkin. serving on
the health panel said that workers
in industry should submit ia
periodic examination in order "a

ployers. In answer TO questions
from the floor, DR.. Raskin declared
that periodic examinations should
not be used by employers as
means Of getting rid OF employee:
and that the unions should guar
antee safeguards against such pos
sibilities.
1T WAS the concensus OF opin
ion by all at the conference tina
the unions now have a definite
stake in the social services Offered
by the community and that thu
agencies of the Council OF Socia
agencies should work in harmon,
with the unions to make sure tina
the proper job is being done amont
those people who need the services
most.
