Arlington Tightens
Collateral Rules for
Reckless Motorists

Arlington motorists who are
charged with reckless driving in
connection with an accident will
not be permitted to forfeit collat-
eral, under a new policy an
nounced yesterday by Judge Hugh
Reid of County Court.
Judge Reid said the change was
made possible by a reduction in
the number of cases coming be-
fore him since the appointment of
Judge Paul D. Brown as assistant.
The new policy also is part of
a safety program which is sched-
uled to culminate in creation of a
new Traffic Violations Bureau
early next year.

Hog Gains

Hogs which were confined in a
small area consumed more feed
and made more gains than hogs
which were induced to take daily
exercise. There was little differ
ence In economy Of gains between
the two groups. On the other hand
the hogs with exercise had firmer
carcasses and thinner back fat.

The figures for Dover show that
the town is still the second largest
in the state. although the figures
from Newark and New Castle are
still to be released. Increases are
expected in both of those commun-
tiles. Compared to the total counts
for the Sussex County towns re-.
leased earlier this month, the fig
ures for the four Kent County
towns indicate the possibility that
the percentage Of increase IN Kent
will be higher than that IN Sussex.

Most enlightened thinkers tack
ling the problem of Juvenile de-
linquency agree that, broadly, the
solution is in doing two things:
strengthening the character of
children, and weakening the evil
forces in the community.
There is no shortcut. II is a
hard and demanding task and calls
on every citizen, whether q parent
or not, to take share in il.
We can't shift all of it TO the
already burdened shoulders Of
parents and think the answer has
been found.
1t is easy TO accept the glib
statement: There are no delin-
quent children: there are only
delinquent parents" pass a law
furnishing the parents in cases OF
delinquency, and dust off our
hands, in the shallow confidence
that the Juvenile delinquency
problem has been disposed of.
A nationwide study of juvenile
delinquency, recently made, failed
to disclose q single instance where
juvenile misbehavior was reduced
by furnishing parents. And a ju.
vsnile court Judge In Toledo found
