AT ABOUT 200 am. one morn
ing last week several boys rang
ing in ages from 10 to IS years
went on a rampage in the Liberty
City area. They broke glass win
dows of several business places
on 18th ave., then went over two
blocks ON 18th ave. and tried to
break into a grocery store by
hacking a hole in the roof Of the
place. A woman living in the vi
cinity heard the noise and aWoke
her husband. The husband seeing
that they were only kids, fired
shot into the air in an attempt to
scare them away.
They halted their nefarious
work and one yelled, "Shoot one
of us, damn you, and I'll have
you put in Jail"
That's juvenile delinquency,
they say, and it is also said lack
of play grounds and other public
facilities for kids is the reason for
these actions by them. But that
amt the way / see it!
In the first place, why are these
kids allowed away from home at
this hour in the morning. Surely
their parents must know that
they were not at home, a.o sh
be concerned of their whereabouts
or they just don't give a whoop.
Much of the juvenile delin-
Quency can be blamed on adult
delinquency and they are the ones
who should be helped or pun
lshed for the actions of their
offspring.
A man related to us about
nine-year-old boy who was not
ed for carrying a knife, pair o.
dice and always had cigarettes
and smoked them as regular as
we do, The gent tried to teach
the youngster that the things
he were doing were wrong. He
bought the kid little luxuries like
candy, ice cream, movie tickets
and fed him daily. Seeing that
his effort to help the boy was not
working, he approached his moth
er one day and told her about her
son. She listened attentively then
said, "My boy is not prisoner
here at home and when he wants
to go out and come in, that's up
to him.l"
The gent, who is patient sort
of fellow, lost control of himself
and told the woman, in no I'M
certain terms, just what he thot
about her and washed his hands
of the whole thing.
So, your opinion of who is the
delinquent. the child or the pa
rent Is just as good as the So
called expert on this problem!

Liquor License Transfer
To Grant 81. Protested

The Alcoholic Beverage Con-
troll Board today has under con-
Sideration a request for transfer
of a package liquor store from
1908 U street NV, to 4o01
Grant street, NE.
At a hearing yesterday, op-
ponents of the transfer told the
board a liquor store on Grant
street would tend to increase the
number of delinquent children in
that area.
Mrs. Edna Smith said there are
enough places in the area now
selling liquor.

the license for which transfer

AirIift and Airfreight
Carriers Held Vital

L. R. Hackney, executive vice
president of Transport Air
Group, today declared vigorous
development of a relatively new
part of the commercial air tran
port induStry-the airlift and
airfrieight carriers-is vital to
the Nations military survival.
He was addressing the Aero
Club of Washington in the
Washington Hotel.
The speaker, a specialist in air
transport and logistics for 20
years. emphasized in particular
the role of flexible aerial pipe
lines" in national defense. He
pointed out the critical need for
air mobility in supplying modern
military forces and in providing
relief for disaster areas.
While airlift and airfreight
carriers have by both war and
peacetime achievements won a
place in defense, commerce and
in human relief. Mr.. Hackney
said, carriers engaged in these
operations are faced with slow
elimination unless granted
greater recognition and support.

/ SEATTLE, Wash, Oct. L.
Watching the Nations newest
and most powerful jet bomber
take off is like being in the
worlds noisiest boiler factory
with a pair of three-dimensional
glasses on.
The powerful whine of the
YB-52 Boeing Stratofortress'
eight jet engines is the loudest
noise this writer has ever heard.
And the size of the plane, which
is about equivalent to the B-36
intercontinental mber in
length (but Sc mingly much
larger in appearance) over
shadows everything.
This airplane, and the F-1O0
fighter are going into stepped-up
production, as just pointed out
by Secretary of the Air Force
Talbot. The YB-52 tits one
completed sister ship is the "XB"
modeD is of such advanced de-
sign that few reporters have
been allowed to see the aircraft.
let alone watch it take off from
the long concrete runway at the
plant of the Boeing Airplane Co.
here.
Most Data Still Secret.
An idea of what the monstrous
YB-52 looks like can be cleaned
from these measurements:
weight, more than 100000
pounds; wing spread, 1875 feet;
length, 153 feet and height of
its vertical tail fin, 48 feet above
the ground. Practically every
thing else about the airplane still
is secret. The flaps on the wing
are equivalent to the size of one
whole wing section on the DC-3
transport.
A ground crew of about 20
mechanics, engineers and other
technicianS hovers around the
airplane before it is rolled out
onto the line. They take care of
an extensive pre-f1ight check on
the ground.
An air compressor then goes
into action to help start the
eight Pratt & Whitney J-57 en-
gines, the most powerful in ex-
istence today 1t is known that
the YB-52 can generate about
10000 horsepower at operating
speed and altitude. This COM
pares with 50,700 horsepower of
the six-jet B-47B Stratojet
bomber; 47,00O horsepower for
the B-36, which the SIS will re-
place; $4,000 horsepower for the
B-50 medium bomber and $500
horsepower for the old Boeing
B-29.
Pilots in "Space Suits"
AS the portable air compressor
does it's work, the engines. one
by one, start their whine. When
all eight engines are warming
up, the noise is deafening. A
swirl of dust kicks up behind
and around the airplane.

With Christmas just a few

ency to wind up in disorder after
too much alcohol and perhaps
too much amour.
That interoffice activities
should be kept within the bounds
of decorum is beyond all ques-
ton, but that phase of the sit
uation is too self evident to need
further discussion at the mo-
ment. What I'd like to do now
is direct few words to all wives
who, at one time or another, do
participate in business gather
ingS.
They should appreciate, first
of all, that, when invading busi-
ness premises, they are on for
eign territory. A woman may
be queen of her own home, but
she's only visitor in her hus-
bands office.
1t is especially important for
her to be gracious, not authorita-

bar forever all invitations to out

at him and I guess he was plenty
irked at me when he got my
message. So. the situation had
all the makings of a fine, full
blown feud.
Happily, Earl obeyed an i'm
pulse to telephone me. planning
probably to tell me just what he
thought of me. I answered in
the same gentle spirit. But
luckily before we even got started
on mutual recriminations, we
discovered the facts and it was
clear that there was no quarrel
at all, just a misunderstanding.
We had a fine long conversation,
a good if embarrassed laugh and
when we hung up, our friendship
was intact.
Two days later I got from Earl
a letter which I want to quote,
for it is not only a generous
admission of a nice man but
there's a good moral in it. II
think what's happened is a
rather interesting study in pre-
serving friendships" Earl began.
Then he went on to tell me that
when he first heard of the can
collation. of our interviewing date
he flew into a huff and angrily
began to think about ways to
get even.
"Then I suddenly had an at
tack of common sense, which 1
have too rarely, and said to my
self, This doesn't sound like
Mary Margaret-why don't call
and ask her?' So. then I did
and we smoothed it all out beau
tifully. I'm truly pleased that I
wasn't foolish enough to wind
up our friendship through not
making a telephone call.

cooperative business associa-
tionS.
So, if future Office parties
happen to be a blight on your
horizon, if you know from past
experience that they may exceed
the bounds of good taste, and if
you are trying to make them
husband-and-w wife affairs, don't
show your concern. Point out
to your husband. or to the indi-
vidual in charge of the gather
ing, the advantages of including
wives, but don't let it be obvious
that you are motivated by dis
trust, jealousy or apprehension
about hubby's conduct. And,
for heavens sake, if you do win
your point, prove it.
Don't attend a party solely
for the purpose of spying on
your man and his attractive
secretary, or to learn how many
girls call him by his first name,
or to ferret out any questionable
friendships among the staff.
You're guest, remember, and
you will be closely watched for
any possible slips. Don't make

people will wonder how they
ever did enjoy a party without
