School Principal bIames
Parents Of DeIinquents

Parents Of juvenile delinquents
have failed to assume their proper
parental roles Lester T. Walter,
principal of Powell Junior High
School, told a meeting of the Citi-
zens' Forum of Columbia Heights
last night.
Youth today differs little from the
youth of generation ago, Mr..
Walter said. Adding that environ
mental conditions, broken homes,
employed parents and transient
homes create the problems which
now confront educators and parents.
Mr.. Walter suggested an adult edu-
cation program to encourage inter-
est of parents in the activities of
their children in school, on the play
ground and at home.
Mr.. Walter said he would prepare
for the next meeting study of the
advisability of recommending small
fines on the parents of juvenile
offenders.
The students point of view on
youth problems was presented by
Albert DuGoff of the Roosevelt
High School Student Council. Young
DuGof urged more responsibilities
be given teenagers. He expressed
the belief part-time jobs, sports and
home duties would solve the stu
dents problems.
Miss Ina Brown stressed the need
for more and larger Fairgrounds
throughout the city, improved facili-
ties and greater number of trained
supervisors.
The association took under con-
sideration a proposal by Mr.. Wal
tiers that District school teachers
be given fiat increases of up to 5000
a year to compensate for higher liv-
ing costs.
The invocation was said by the
Rev. Frank J. Davis. DR.. C. j.
Fernald, president, conducted the
meeting, held at Powell Junior High
School, Hyatt place and Lamont
street NV.

Reds Assume Control
OF Budapest Radio
BY the Assoeioted Press

BUDAPEST, Mar. 18 Delayed).-
Reliable American sources said to-
day the Russians had assumed con-
troll Of the Budapest radio and the
affiliated Hungarian telegraph
agency, MTI.
1t was reported a fortnight ago
that the Russians had assumed a
supervisory position over the Buda-
pest radio, but not until today was
this verified by American sources.
These informants said the control
had been assumed on March 4 and
that the reasons given by the two
Russian controlling officers had been
to lend a helping hand in organiz-
Ing the Hungarian radio and tele-
graphic agency in a democratic
spirit"
These sources said the Russians
objected to the Hungarian radio
broadcasting religious sermons on
Sundays which the Russians consid-
cred undesirable, to the number of
pro- American and pro-British en-
ployes on the radio and MTI STATS
and to the handling of news from
Western sources.

YOUNGSTOWN IN RACE HARMONY MOVE

YOUNGSTOWN, o. fehA
(ANP) = This week in Youngs-~~
town, being celebrated as "race re-
lations week." marks the beginning
of a city-wide movement toward
more harmonious relations between
races through a newly formed coun-
Gil, representing racial, religious,
and national groups. Aiming for a
$4,000 annual budget for work of
the council, a financial campaign
began some time ago.
During race relations week."
sponsored by 65 churches affiliated
with the Federated churches of
Youngstown, trustees of the newly
founded Youngstown Intergroup
Goodwill council will elect officers
as the first step in opening an office
with a full time staff of three.
Trustees of the group, selected be-
cause of their familiarity with
Youngstown's social problems, are
seeking an expert in minority group
problems to head the new office.
The councils agenda includes
promotion of improved conditions
for minority groups in housing, en-
Iployment, health, recreation and
kindred fields. 1t also aims at wider
minority group representation in
community activities. The program
was formulated under direction of
DR.. George E. Haynes of New York,
director of race relations of the
Federal Council of Churches of
Christ in America.
Youngstown, melting pot" in
dustrial city of many minorities, in
Guiding 1860 Negroes, has long
been alert in the interracial sphere.
The move, now underway, had it's
beginnings back to 1919, year of
the steel strike here. About this
time disease and social delinquency
rates in the Negro section, "Mon-
keys Nest" skyrocketed. To help
in the eradication of causes of this,
the late John Chase, Youngstown
Playground Association director,
founded the interracial committee,
forerunner of the new council.

Britain, Holland and France, to say
nothing of our own position in the
Pacific, are not calculated to give
strength to our claims to be the
saviours of civilization and man
kind. If Russia follows the leads
set by Great Britain, World War
III is Immediately in the offing.
But back to these interminable
strikes. 1t takes no prophet to see
how short step it is from where
we are today, to a general strike
with all of it's sinister implications
This country is on the verge of a
general strike that will usher in
what may eventually culminate in
a revolution. At any rate the pat
tern of a general strike can be def
nitely outlined on the face of cur
rent events. Karl Marx may yet
prove himself one of the major eco
nomic prophets whose doctrines
hold portents of dire revolution
with all of it's tragic possibilities.
What is daily transpiring before
our eyes amounts to a revolution il
rehearsal! It need not be further
doubted that labor is in the saddle
now; and whittier it directs is the
chief question before this nation
Whether we like it or not, the houl
of the common man has struck. The
days of the exploitation of thu
masses by the classes are almost a
an end. Even the days of Negro sub
ljugation in America are hastenin1
to close! 1t is difficult to imagin,
how the common man would MAKE
a greater mess of things than thu
powers that be have made. Roose
velt tried hard to get the privileged
class to make concessions in the in
terest of perpetuating democracy
in this country but we were SLOW
of heart to believe; and joined a.
we were to our idols, we let pass
one of the big opportunities of his
tory-the opportunity to indefinite
ly postpone the revolution or miti
gate its rigors.
Such misfortune as the curren
filibuster is vivid illustration O
the handicaps of a democracy il
competition with dictatorship lik
Russia. It is difficult to imagine
more potent example of democ
racy's disadvantage than that bein,
currently displayed by the southern
contingent in congress filibusterin,
against a bill for fair employmen
practices. The depravity of thei
position is one of the saddest com
mentaries on the spirit of the ma
tion which above all others Nigh
point this world towards the goa
of better things.

Bez1ueen The 2i>.e4
Dean Gordon B. Hancocks

By Lean cora.
What he was to do with Christ,
was a question that vexed Plate
sorely. 1t was a question that the
vacillating Plate never answered.
His lack of moral courage doomed
him to eternal ignominy. The ques-
tion propounded by this week-kneed
monarch is vexing men today as in
the days of Roman power. What
shall we do with Christ? The ma
tions have utterly failed to meet
this question squarely and they like
Plate are left suspended between
vexing present and an uncertain
future.
The decision cannot be much
longer postponed, because there is
a now-or-never" urgency in all
human affairs that makes a def
mite decision imperative. The Jesus
of Pilates day is still on hand! Just
as Christ and his teachings were a
problem to those of his day, so are
the doctrines of Karl Marx press
ing upon the present generation of
economists for consideration.
What our economists are to do
with Karl Marx is a pressing ques-
tion. In his Das Kapital and in the
Communist Manifesto, Max presup-
posed a general strike which would
usher in the new socialistic order,
with capitalism banished from
among the nations. Many faults
have been found with Marxism and
it's cardinal doctrines; but events
are ever recurring that remind us
of the doctrines of Marx and his
followers.
| have from time to time made
little of the possibilities of gen.
eral strike even as master-minded
economists have minimized these
same possibilities. But the stage is
being daily set that could easily
eventuate into a general strike the
outcome of which no one can pre-
dict. This we do know that we are
not wise if we continue to minimize
any possibility that is fast turning
into a probability. Capitalism as we
know it is being weighed in the bal
ances. It's position is becoming more
and more precarious. For better or
worse socialism is knocking at the
door of the nations. What is more,
the exponents of democracy and
capitalism do not seem to have any
effective safeguard against the
much-feared and much-denounced
socialism. The position of the demo-
cratic nations is not such as to give
the world the assurance it is crav-
ing. The imperialistic tendencies of
the so-called democracies have dan
gerous implication for the future.
