Crime Boom
Washington Post

MT j. Edgar Hoover in his address the other day at Miami have startled even his audience of police chiefs by an assertion that the criminal population of these United States numbers round six million This is to say out of every 9 or g inhabitants of the country been arrested criminal charge. Since however not every person who is arrested is convicted and since at least innocent of the crimes of which they accused, it is fairly safe assumption that MT Hoover's figure was somewhat exaggerated.
 But even after the necessary discount it is beyond any doubt that crime is now among the most serious of our many serious national problems. Indeed, MT. Hoover who is seldom given to false optimism, fears that We may be on the eve of another criminal era such as characterized the 192Os This he said, will certainly be the if the organized criminals once get a start and find they can succeed"
 This internal danger threatening the country has grown mainly out of the failure of American com munities or, at any rate the larger communities, to find ways to check or prevent the increase of de-
 nquency among the young of both sexes The young denquents of yesterday the gangsters and racket eers of today It is this generation says MT Hoover who are now becoming postgraduates Of crime and committing the more desplcabe oi- lenses The spiritual domestic and economic disloca- tons and the collapse of moral standards, resulting from the settlements and anxetieS of the war, have created a most favorable climate for the growth of crime among the young MT. Hoover pointed out that arrests of young girls under l9 mostly for promlscuy and other sexual offenses has nearly trped since 1859 Among boys under l0 arrests TOT rape nave credSeu by 70 per cent for drunkenness by more than
 100 per cent for assault by P per cent and for homicide by 48 per cent.
 Two days later at Miami, Chief Inspector O'Connell of the New York City police gave further plausibity to MT Hoover's apprehensions survey Of police records in American cities for the first six months Of 1945 he said, showed incerase nearly "A per cent over the months of 1944 in arrests of boys under 2l on such charges homicide, rape and felonlous assault Today it is boys between Il and b and girls between Is and 21 who giving the police their most serious headaches
 Most police officials apparently, are agreed that among will be exceptional rather than common However the veterans may inadvertently contribute to the troubles of the police. MT Hoover called the attention of his colleagues to the increasing store of weapons which might easily fall into the hands of criminals Already it seems, many weapons used Tn crimes of violence service pistols or souvenir weapons the soldiers allowed to bring home be- cause of lax regulations Such weapons, he said have a way of ultimately getting into the hands ot black market operators who resell them to hoodums and criminals" MT Hoover wants this dangerous traffic curbed or stopped and we think he is right.

ATOM SCIENTISTS

Modern Scientists have brought forth the most world shaking in- vention of all time, the atom bomb. But sometimes, when it comes to less complicated things, they are completely at sea.
 Some of the Federation of Atomic Scientists were gathered at their office recently to have their pictures taken by magazine photo grapher Ike Vern.
 Vern remarked at the lack of heat in the building Haven't you furnace?" he asked
 Yes" said one of the scientists, but we don't know how to light it."
 A moment later the phone rang. Colombia's brilliant Dr. Harold Urey tried to answer it, but the phone was equipped with three buttons.
 My God" exclaimed Atomic Scientist Urey, which button do I push?"
 Experiment, man, experiment. /" replied Dr. Leo Szilard Copyright. 1945, By Bell Syndicate, Inc.)

THE NEW YEAR

After four New Years" when January simply meant another year of had begun for us today Americans everywhere start out on new year which can be fully dedicated to peaceful pursuits.
 Never Jess 1946 will be year of easy living. The job for today just as great as 1t was last year and the year before-but the work should be much more pleasant.
 During the last months of 1a45, however, Americans did not cease to fight though the war was over A civil war without bloodshed fared up between labor and managementand the settling of this strife is the one big job ahead of the nation for 1946.
 The new year will bring to those laborers still working their first reduction in income taxes since 1929 Likewise businesses still in operation it will bring a reduction in corporate taxes
 As soon as labor and management can get together, the nation can start out on job of catching up at home with all of the normal pursuits which were shunted into the background during the war but according to all present indications that time is still a long way off

NEED STRONG STATE DEPARTMENT

While the Douglas-Air Forces relationship probably was closer than that enjoyed by other com panies, all the U. s. companies selling airplanes to Japan and there were others-did so with the War Departments okay.
 Thus, the State Department was put in the position of outlining a policy and then having another branch of the government under mine it. Secretary Hull in 1888 had requested all airplane manufac- turers not to sell planes to Japan. He did this because CD Jap planes were bombarding innocent civilians in China, and (2l all reports from the Far East showed that Japan was about to embark on a cam paign to conouer the Pacific.
 One word from the War De- partInent to Douglas Aircraft or other com panies would have stopped them dead in their tracks. Their main market was the Army, and they could not afford to of fend their best customer Yet the Army not only did not say the word, but turned around, married the daughter of the president of the firm and made the vice-presi- dent major general.
 Later, when the State Depart ment was shown to be right, and the Army wrong, Hull was forced to modify his own foreign policy at the request of the generals be- cause they had unwittingly cut the ground out from under him.
 All of which shows that you need a strong, homogeneous State Department to set foreign policy and then to force all other branches of the government to stick to tiff we are to head of. another war

WEDNESDAY. JANUARY 2

Mingled good and adverse aspects rule today which may be conducive to weariness and depression. Think ing may be muddled as great events are recorded by press and radio.
 HEART AND HOME
 Respect for the aged may be eu- phasized under this sway which re- yeals the value of experience to guide I946 social and domestic plans. Reaction from wartime liberty and license is forecast. Young folk will be more circumspect in behavior.
 BUSINESS AFFAIRS
 Dangers threatening private en- terprise will gradually vanish but not until there is nationwide concern over regimentation. Individuality and independence will continue in the commercial world.
 NATIONAL ISSUES
 Culture, education and economic security will belong to all citizens of the United States in the distant fu- ture, the seers foretell. Labors de- mand for increase in wages is due to stars which exercise global in- fluence. In the Aquarian new world poverty will have no place.
 INTERNATIONAL AFFAIRS
 Hatred and revenge must be elim- mated in the restoration of Europe and Asia. Among the foes are many innocent women and children. Even enemies must be succored, astrolo9- CTS emphasize.
 Persons whose birthdate it is have the augury of much unexpected good fortune in 1946. Satisfactory em- ployment may be expected.
 Children born on this day may be sensitive and imaginative. An inclination to talk too much should be curbed

happening. Today, perhaps even more, State Department personnel and foreign policy are being en- gulfed by the Army and, to a lesser extent, the Navy. In China, U. s. policy has been set almost as much by Gen. Al Wedemeyer and Adm. Dan Barbey as by the State Department-up until the arrival of another military man Gen. Marshall, who now takes over as Ambassador.
 In Belgium, the State Depart ment is recommending Alan Kirk, a mediocre admiral, as Ambassador, partly because he is a friend of Dean Acheson's sister.
 In Greece, Gen. Barney Giles is being considered as new U. s. Ambassador, repla cling Lincoln MacVeagh.

 What the State Department needs, of course, is to take both politics and the military out of diplomacy, and appoint the very best men the nation can find, re- gardless of political party, as ex- pert envoys on our first line of characterization diplomatic mis- sions abroad.
