Mad Dogs And Criminal Perverts

In a Today period this month, the headlines told nearly
30 stories of young girls being molested by men. Three of
the children were murdered. In each case where the
criminal was captured, he was found to be a pervert of
record. In other words, he had already notified the au-
thorities of his fiendishness by previously being caught at
sexual molestationa of children, and then HAD BEEN
TURNED LOOSE ON THE PUBLIC.
Release of known offenders of this type is like allow
ing mad dogs TO roam the streets at will. Sooner or later.
one of their deeds ends in the murder of the victim. And.
at that. would it not be better for the victims if all ended
in murder? Certainly such an experience forevermore
blights the lives of the children. both physically and psY-
choloqicallY.
There are those who advocate that sex offenders be
treated as mad ~dogs-wipe them out. But most Of the
monsters plead insanity and get away with it. There is
an argument for the stern treatment of these people-pun-
ishment should be for the crime and should not be temper
ed because of a popularity of the criminal. Yet, if the law
allowed capital punishment for murder committed by
madmen-who presumably are not responsible for their
aets-then it may be stretched to allow capital punish
ment of juveniles, who also are regarded as not responsible
for criminal acts.
But something must be done. DR.. Windred Overholser.
a top psychiatrist and director of st. Elizabeth's hospital
in Washington, D. c, says that the recent murders were
unnecessary. Had the killers he stated, "been COM
mitted until cured after they were first detected with signs
of madness on them, the killings that shocked the nation
never would have happened"
1t is obvious. then. what must be done: The legisla-
lures of the various states that have not already done SO
must provide sharp-toothed laws to remove criminal per-
verts from society until they are cured.
DR.. Overholser said that mere jail terms from which
offenders eventually are released might a~eeentuate their
criminal tendencies. State statutes should provide medical
and p~sychiatric treatment for those who can be helped.
For the ineurables, the law should provide lifelong in
generation.
We second the motion and call it to the attention of
Mississippi legislators.

Open: Millions OF Fertile Acres

The location of the US Fish and WIldhfe Services TWO
experimental fishing vessels in the Gulf marks one of the
most significant steps ever taken towards the orderly and
scientific development of the Cuffs little known but vast
resources for the economic benefit of the millions of people
that live along its shores.
One of the vessels, the Alaska, will be a Floating
laboratory" while the other, the Oregon, will conduct ex-
ploratory fishing operations designed to discover new fish
ing grounds, trace the migratory path of the many COM
mercial varieties of marine life that swarm in Gulf waters,
develop new methods and new and modern equipment for
harvesting the abundant crop produced along our shores.
As announced exclusively in this weeks issue of the
Chronicle Star and Advertiser. Pascagoula has been Sc
lected as the home port for the Oregon.
Immediate benefits to Pascagoula and this section will
be the employment of a dozen or so local people. as crew
for the vessel. and other economic benefits that will come
from the purchase of supplies and the permanent location
here of three Wildlife Service fishery engineers" who
will direct and correlate various phases of the exploratory
operations.
Long-range benefits stagger the imagination, Little
is known of the Gulf and its resources. Just how little
was summed up tersely and briefly by Jack B%aughman,
chief biologist for the Texas Game, Fish and Oyster Com
mission, during a conversation last week in Miami at the
Gulf and Caribbean Fisheries Institute.
Pool all the scientific knowledge we. have accumu-
lated over a period of years concerning the Gulf and its
resources" Mr.. Baughman said, land it would be about like
comparing your little finger nail to the whole of the United
States in relation to what we don't know"
Development of Gulf waters will be like bringing into
abundant production millions OF acres OF fertile but dor
mant land whose fruits and harvests will accrue to the
economic benefit. and a better living. for the many who do
the harvesting.
Last, but not least, we believe that credit should go
where credit is due. Hervey Petrich of the Western Boat
Building Co, Tacoma, Wash, Pascagoula's rowing ambas-
sador, first brought the vessels to the attention of local
officials. State Rep. Hermes F. Gautier took over from
there locally. Cong. w. M. Colmer, aware of the potential
Importance of these vessels to the economy of the Gulf
area, introduced and pushed through Congress a bill trans
ferring them to the Wildlife Service and a companion
appropriation bill setting up funds to operate them.
1t was good and productive work by all concerned, and
many future generations of our citizens will continue to
reap the benefits.

Race Bios Without Race Hate
Is Lotest Southern Concoction

MOBILE, Ala amp The
South, ever on the alert to concoct
an excuse which might be consid-
cred plausible to maintain its ira
ditional two-system citizenship,
has evolved new wrinkle which
says:
"Southerners can demand
racial segregation without preach
ing racial hate"
This idea, currently supported by
several members of the Alabama
Democratic Executive Committee,
was made public by Committee
Chairman Gessner T. McCorvey.
He said:
alabama, and the South gen.
orally, is one section of the country
in which the right-thinking people
neither have nor tolerate any racial
hate or religious intolerance. This
Is entirely different from the de-
mands which thoughtful Southern
ers will make and insist upon that
our segregation laws and practices
be maintained in full force and
effect"

be asked to ban candidates for
governOrship, or any other pub
lie office, from campaigning on

Street Scene
By OTIS d. BEAN

As one walks along street,
any street, on Christmas morning,
there seems to be a special type of
spirit that permeates the early
morning air, manifesting itself in
various forms and ways. Be it hot
or cold, wet or dry, this spirit
seems to invade each and every OBJ
ject, both animate and inanimate.
One might see the spirit of Christ
mas reflected in some small boys
face as he brings new toy out
on the sidewalk to get an early
morning start on this day. One
might get the spirit from the
solemnity written on. the faces of
some group returning from early
morning services at the church
of their choice. Some early morn
ing worker, whose job is no re-
specter of holidays, on his way to
his task, wearing special smile
of happiness because he has a
job to go to. One might see the
spirit reflected in the Keeling walk
of some reveler, returning home
from an all-night celebration. The
activities in the kitchens, and
( ate from the houses along the
street.
AS one walks along the street,
the words Peace on Earth, Good
Will to All Men," seem to have
special meaning, especially when
the greeting is exchanged =
MERRY CHRISTMASw
