PRICE SPEAKS ON
YOUTH DELINQUENCY

There was a time when it was
generally believed that nearly all
social evils were bred in slums OF
the cities and their counterparts in
the towns, but in his work in Yel-
lowstone county he has found some
of the worst cases of juvenile de-
linquency come from homes one
would least suspect, E. @. Irice
or Billings said during an address
here Tuesday at a meeting IF the
Rotary club. He is County juvenile
and was introduced by DR..
D. A. Nottingham, Il member of
the clubs program committee for
December. The present year, 1!i49,
is the fiftietk since tire first iuven-
lie court was established.
Such courts in Montana are I'M
der supervision of dist"ic. court
judges. When he began his work,
Price said he thought he had a
position; since then he hac cnnclud-
ed he has a job. 1t gets him up
ut all hours, requires the best q
man has to give it, and at times
presents well-nigh battling stu
atoms. In the period from Jan.
[ 70 Oct. 81 this year he has had
500 cases.
He quoted a good many statistics
the early part Of his address,
lmong them that in the period
here were 81 ungovernable giIls
md II ungovernable boys. The
proportion varies in the different
linus of offenses.
Some of the wors. offenders are
nentally deficient. in, speaker
