PoIygamists' Children
Create School Problem
BY The Associoted Press

PHOENIX, Ariz., Sept. Is.
Phoenix schools yesterday re-
ceived a new group of students
rs children from the Short
Greek polygamy colony.
They were enrolled, but John
H. Barry. Maricopa County
School Superintendent, said he
did not know who was going
to pay for their schooling. He
said he would ask the Arizona
Attorney Generals Office to clar-
ify the matter.
The youngsters are part of the
165 children and their mothers
brought to Phoenix from their
isolated village near the Utah
border last month.
Two Superior Court Judges,
Lorna E. Lockwood and j. w.
Faulkner, ruled last Friday at
the conclusion Of a series of
juvenile court hearings that the
children can never return to
Short Greek.

Petwonh Citizens
Urge Co-ordinated
Fight on Delinquency

The Petworth Citizens Asso-
citation last night joined the
growing demand for a co-ordi-
mating group to fight Juvenile
delinquency.
The group asked the Com
miSSioners to set up, as soon as
possible, a master organization,
responsible only to the city heads,
to direct the efforts of all agen-
cieS.
The association acted after
hearing three experts in the field,
Welfare Director Gerard M.
Shea, Sixth Precinct Police Capt.
Reid Hammann and Miriam
Gutenberg, reporter for The Star,
testify that the problem is in
creasing in urgency.
Also approved by the asso-
citation were resolutions calling
for enactment of parental re-
sponsibility laws and greater ef-
forts to get hardened" juve-
niles out of Juvenile Court hands
and into adult courts for trial.
Mr.. Shea said the first need
a co-ordinating group would sat-
isfy is that of information. He
said an effective campaign
against juvenile delinquency
must begin with survey of who
tie offenders are. how they are
distributed in the city and why
they went wrong"
Setting Up Registry.
Already, he said he is moving
TO set up a central registry Of
juvenile cases. Capt. John Ryan
Of the police Juvenile Squad has
agreed to the plan. Next Mr..
Shea hopes to line up Juvenile
Court and Board of Education
officials on the plan, he said.
Capt, Hammann said that,
while his precinct has less de-
linquency than any other. police
efforts to prevent and control it
would be aided by new legislation.
He said compelling parents to
make good any property damage
by their children would go a
long way toward solving the
problem. He also contended that
an overworked Juvenile Court
staff cannot check the develop
ment of hardened juveniles who
ought to be dealt with by adult
courts.
Miss Gutenberg summed UP
the recommendations under five
heads:
/. Such groups as the Council
on Law Enforcement should ex-
anime Juvenile Court practice to
see if young repeaters are being
turned over to higher court in
enough cases.
2. The Commissioners should
set up a co-ordinating group
which would be powerful enough
and representative enough of all
agencies concerned to take over
direction of the fight.
Would Increase Staff.
3. More case workers and case
work supervisors should be added
to the Juvenile Court staff.
4. Welfare Department insti-
tutions should be increased in
size to improve the rehabilita-
tion chances of juveniles. First
on the list of needed facilities
is the addition to the Receiving
Home.
5. More police should be added
to the force to stop delinquency
before it happens.
The PetWorth association, cele-
brating its golden anniversary
this year, has been active for
some time in urging a more
effective approach to the de-
linquency problem. Last year
the association proposed

nate citizen and official efforts.

He said such a man should

He seemed surprised that
mention had been made Of the

Gated that what he would like
to see is that the Corporation
be developed to the point
where it could at least break
