Mccormick Reminds Droft Requirements

Calling attention to the fact that failure to register is a viola tion of law and makes the de- linquent liable to penalty, John L. Mccormick, Alaska Director of Selective Service today out lined registration requirements under the Universal Military Training and Service Act, as amended, which he said he be- lieved were not thoroughly un- derstood by all of the general public.
 The obligation to register - MT. Mccormick said, lis a con tinuing obligation and must be

required to register at a local board within six months follow ing the date of their entry.
 The maximum penalty for vii olation of any of the provisions of the Selective Service Law, MT Mccormick pointed out, is five years in prison or a fine of $10,000 or both.
 The registrar in Seward is Mildred Kirkpatrick, at the Seward Record office on Fourth Avenue.

tance of the registrant giving his permanent home address as his place of residence when he registers at a board away from home, since the place of resi- dence which he gives when reg istering determines the local board which will always have jurisdiction over him.
 Any person who changes from a status which did not re- quire his registration to a status which does require it must reg ister promptly to be within the law" Mccormick said.

Makes lis Sd Arrest

The Maryland Border Patrol,
organized to stop the flow of
illegal whisky from the District
into the State, made it's third ar
rest over the weekend.
Agent Robert N. Lucke said he
charged George H. Mowbry 81,
of Brinklow, with the importa-
tion and possession of whisky not
bearing the State tax stamp Mr.
Mowbry posted $27.50 collateral
and a hearing was set in Silver
Spring police court for January S.
Agent Lucke said he .ollowed
the car across the District line
and made the arrest as it was
being parked on the Ward street
lot off Georgia avenue in Silver
Spring.
Seventeen fifths of assorted
whiSkies were confiscated, the
agent said. He warned that in
Montgomery County the law
allows confiscation of a car used
in the importation of illegal
beverage.
The law permits the importa-
tion Of one quart of alcoholic
beverages, including beer. at a
time and not more than two
quarts a month. The agent said

Mr.. Shea also called for
psychiatric service for welfare
wards, more staff to serve in
emphasis on remedial reading
in the schools, more employ
ment opportunities for teen
ayers and establishment of a
family court as recommended by
the Judicial Conference of the
District. He said establishment
of such court would be "a
forward STEP"
Chief Raspberry told the. SUBJ
committee that vandalism in the
parks has decreased steadily to
low of 90 cases in 1852. Other
juvenile cases, however. he re-
ported have increased, but these
are mainly acts of the nuisance
variety.
The more serious complaints,
he told the subcommittee, in
volve children living in southwest
Washington but some are COM
mitted by children living in Sec
tions where more and better IA
cilitieS are available.
Cites Need for Facts.
Although juvenile delinquency
is not a major problem with the
Park Police. Chief Raspberry
said. he realizes that the expe-
riences of District police and
others show the immediate need
for increased juvenile corrective
programs and changes in pres
sent-day corrective methods.
Contending that a freer ex-
change of information with
Juvenile Court would be helpful,
he said he could not understand
why the court hadn't given po-
lice dispositions of the cases a
long time ago.
Eve should be working in close
harmony" he said.

Virginia Seeks More
FIood-ConfroI Aid for
Potomac Watershed
BY the Assoeia,ed Pres.

Representative Harrison, Dem
ocrat, of Virginia wants Mary
land Congressman to cooperate
in a drive for more money for
soil conservation in the Potomac
River watershed.
Mr.. Harrison said in an inter-
view that he plans to discuss the
matter with the Marylanders
when Congress meets next
month.
He contends the Potomac
basin. particularly in Virginia,
has been disseminated" against
over a period of years in alloca-
tions for local flood control work.
His campaign, he emphasized,
is not for larger overall appro-
priations, but seeks merely
justice for the Potomac tribu-
taries within the limits of ap-
propriated funds"
In a recent letter to Soil Con-
servation Service officials, Mr..
Harrison charged it is "perpetu-
ating a discrimination against
the Potomac watershed in Vir-
ginia" by baSing it's budget allo-
cations for upstream flood con-
troll work on an obsolete survey.
He called on the service to
take prompt steps within the
limits Of available funds to cor
rect what he described as errors
in estimates of Potomac water
shed needs.

surance as an individual citizen
can make.
while l consider the uniform
footman the best deterrent to
juvenile or adult crime" Chief
Murray said. II feel that prob
ably the next in Importance in
the field of prevention would be
your Police Boys Club and other
such clubs in the city"
The chief cited an example.
Last Halloween the nine
branches of the Boys Club at
tracted $4,000 youths to commu-
nifty parties. And from a police
standpoint, that was the quiet
est Halloween in memory.
1t. Forrest L. Binswanger. di-
rector of the clubs, said delin-
quency decreases in proportion
to the increase in the number
and size of the parties.
That fact was established
years ago Former Police Chief
Ernest w. Brown conducted a
survey which showed that much
trouble from vandalism origin
ated with underprivileged boys.
He established the Boys Club,
offering a good environment for
the development of good citizen
ship as a substitute for unsuper-
vised street gatherings.
The first club, in the subbase-
ment of the fifth police precinct
station house, Fifth and E streets
Sc, was an instant success. It
is still in operation as the South
east Club for colored lads.
There are three other clubs
now for colored boys. They are
at 1910 Third street NV. at
1900 U street NV. and the
Southwest Club at 472 I street
S.W.
A total Of five branches were
established for white boys: At
816 Sixth street S.W.. 1901 Ninth
street Sc, All Souls Unitarian
Church, Fifteenth and Harvard

house and Brookland School,

Boys Too Busy in Police Clubs
To Have Time for Delinquency

In nine clubhouses scattered
throughout the District, 1000
Washington youths gather each
afternoon and evening to par
ticipate in a program that is an
obvious deterrent to juvenile de-
linquency.
Competent authorities esti-
mate that these boys daily ex-
pend at least a couple million
footpounds of excess energy that
could easily be directed toward
vandalism and other criminal
acts.
This program sponsored by the
Metropolitan Police Boys Club
ranks second only to uniformed
patrolmen as a weapon for COM
batting juvenile delinquency
here.
The club, which is supported
entirely by citizens contribu-
tions, offers an athletic, educa-
tional, social and recreational
program that channels the in
terest of underprivleged boys
away from the street-corner
gang.
1t promotes craft projects, a
band, a drum and bugle corps
and two free summer camps.
On February % it will COM
plete its Goth year of operation,
with a total membership of 49,
900 and the daily attendance of
1000.
A lot of Washingtonians agree
