Woodshed' Method
Held Best Way 10
Curb Delinquency
Ex-Judee Tells Probers
1t Would Eliminate
Need of Detention
By Miriom Ottenberu

Senate probers Of juvenile de-
linquency today heard their first
advocate of the "woodshed''
method of coping with young
persons.
Former Judge John Gut
knecht. now States Attorney of
Cook County, ILL.,, said judges
and prosecutors have to step in
with more severity because the
classic method of handling bad
boys in the woodshed has been
forgotten.
>"We've got to use the detention
home or the jail to take the place
Of the woodshed," he declared.
when the woodshed comes
back we can forget the jail"
Cites Chicago Approach.
Judge Gutknecht, who spent
18 years on the bench, described
Chicago's current approach to
juvenile delinquency, which in
wolves sending certain boys to
the county jail for such periods
as two days a week or a month
while the disposition of their
cases is postponed.
Letters written by the boys in
jail, he said, indicate that "the
little toughie" may not have been
helped, but the vast majority
leave jail knowing they better
not take another chance, and
the ones who have not gone to
jail realize that if they get into
trouble it will have serious con-
sequences.
To show the method is getting
results, Judge Gutknecht noted
40 per cent decrease in auto
thefts by juveniles in the few
months since the Jail method
was started.
Two Greatest Mistakes.
Judge Gutknecht was asked
about the fate of children with
influential parents. He replied,
"Forty-eight hours in jail for the
So-called better element does
them more good than it does the
underprivileged."
Judge Gutknecht said the two
greatest mistakes that can be
made in this field are to punish
the boy who is innocent and to
let a guilty boy walk out of
court feeling he has put some
thing over on the judge, police,
his parents and society.
Judge Gutknecht advised the
committee not to be afraid of
public opinion, which he said
favored ''mollycoddling" the
juveniles.
AFTER the social worker has
his chance" he added, there
is a time for society to be pro-
tected."
Differs With Anslinger.
The next witness, Edward j.
Mowery Of Scripps Howard
Newspapers, criticized figures
given the subcommittee yester-
day by Federal Narcotics Com
missioner Harry j. Anslinger. In
contrast with Mr.. Anslinger's
figure of about $500 teen-age
addictS in 1852, Mr.. Mowrey es-
timated a minimum of $4,000.
He also criticized high Gov
ernment officials" for minimizing
the size of the problem and for
what he called the opposition to
narcotics education programs in
the schools.
He urged decent hospitaliza-
ton" for juvenile addicts, perma-
nent removal of licenses for sea-
men caught smuggling. deporta-
tion of aliens convicted of dope
peddling, creation of a national
advisory board of experts to sur
vey the problem and a large in
crease in the manpower for Gus
toms control and the Narcotics
Bureau.

Of the Senate Juvenile Delin-
quency subcommittee said the

Charges Program
Of Indictment
By Suspicion
BY the Assoeiated Press

ATLANTA, Ca, Nov. "a
Former Gov. Adlai Stevenson of
Illinois, titular head of the Dem
ocratic Party, today blasted
what he. called the Republican
program of indictment by sus-
picion, or conviction by accu-
sation."
Gen. Eisenhower promised
the people a new morality, but

weapons without regard for their
effect" Mr.. Stevenson declared.
"They have taken McCarthyism
away from Mccarthy What an
end to the great crusade!"
The Democratic presidential
nominee of 1852, in a speech
before the Georgia Legislature,
advocated disclosing the mis-
takes and failures of the past
and roofing out agents OF COM
muniSm.
Urges Dignity.
But for the love of heaven"
Mr.. Stevenson pleaded, "let us
do it with dignity, objectivity
and justice. and with some bet
ter motive than partisan strife
that can only seriously weaken
the United States.
mo one. wins this way. Sus-
picion of past Democratic mis-
takes is balanced by suspicion
of present Republican motives.
The people are confused, conf
dence in both parties under
mined, the Nation injured.
"The issue isn't which party
detestS communism most, but
how to deal with the serious
problem of espionage in our Gov
ernment. And it won't be re-
solved to the Nations advantage
by shouting matches and de-
grading circuses Of political
profit"
Praise for Truman.
Mr.. Stevenson referred to
former President Truman as the
individual who has done more
than any living man to check
the forward thrust Of commu-
nism," and he raped those
whose words imply disloyalty."
Applauding the enormously
improved" position Of minority
groups, particularly the Negro.
MIR. Stevenson called progress in
the South "even more conspicu-
Gus than that in the North"
II believe, and I think in COM
mon with the great majority of
thoughtful white people Of the
South" he continued, "that this
improvement must and will con-
tinue."
Mr.. Stevenson asserted that to
keep the promises made by the
Republican Party in 1852 would
have been about as easy as for
one Siamese twin to jump off the
Brooklyn Bridge while the other
kept the skillet hot for the fish
fry"
Cites Democrats Role.
And he emphasized that on
two-thirds Of the key issues in
the last session, the Democrats
brought about what he termed
the salvation Of the Republican
administration from the Repub-
lican Congress.
The attitude of many Repub-
lican leaders seems to be I like
Ike, but I don't like what Ike
likes" he remarked.
Mr.. Stevenson asserted that
his party ''looks more united
than it has for a long time"
Until lately the dopesters
were freely predicting that the
North-South cleavage would pull
the Democratic Party apart at
the seams" he said. I'VE lost an
election in 1852, but we did not
lose our vitality or sense of mis-
sion. And the sheep that strayed
are daily coming back into the
fold"
The former Illinois Governor
declared that no one should be
more thankful for the Demo-
cratic record in the last session
Of Congress than the President
himself.
Democrats supported the ad-
ministration when they thought
it was right, which has some
times been confused with sup
porting the President for his
sake rather than Democratic
principles for their sake" Mr..
Stevenson declared. "It will be
harder now after this degrading
assault on President Truman"
