Women Can Help Fight Cri,7q
Political Study club Is Told |
BY Ruth Dean

Club women can help fight the
growing crime wave In this country
through organized effort in their
communities, Hugh H. Clegg. Of the
Federal Bureau of Investigation,
told meeting of the Political Study
Club over the week end.
Addressing the group, which met
Saturday at the Washington Club,
Mr.. Clegg, who is assistant director
of the Training and Inspection Di-
vision, cited the growing number
of ofenses being committed by boys
and girls not yet of voting age. He
warned that if their acts are allowed
to go unhindered, we will have a
potential criminal army of 5000 600
The speaker directed blame for
this increase In crime on neglect,
indifference and misdirected senti-
ment," which yearly are Turing
thousands of the nations youth into
the parade of crime.
MIR. Clegg expressed hope that
this can be stopped through in
telligent and planned community
programs. Only a small percentage
Of the juvenile offenders are serious
delinquents, he said, and now is
the time to direct the rest from
turning mischievous pranks into
crime.
Outlining a four-point program
Mr.. Clegg illustrated how Women,s
clubs can help through calling for
legislation that will strengthen the
law-enforcement arm of the gov
eminent by higher salary levels and
retirement privileges which would
| put it on a career basis and keep
it away from politics.
1.-THE protection of society is of
paramount Importance" the speaker
pointed out, and when the rights of
the individual interfere with the
security of the community, the
rights of the community must be
considered first.
MIR. Clegg called for a positive
rather than a negative community
attitude toward youthful offenders.
They must not be excused" he
said, "but must be made to see the
consequence of their acts and be
encouraged along constructive lines

 T was one of the first 90 men to enter this theater of war (Jan. l., 1042) and since that time I have been to every American and R. A. P. installation in China, Burma and India. It is amazing when you know that the Army would never have installed these clubs on it's own initiative. I defy MT.
