Lost Douphin Mystery

The court Of appeals in Paris has de-
cided that the Lost Dauphin really died in
the Temple, June 8, 1795. Weeks OF argu-
ment by eminent lawyers ended In q ruling
that Karl wilhelm Naundorff was not In
fact Louis Charles, son of Louis XVI and
Marie Antoinette. The verdict inferentially
contradictS the claims Of some 80 other
pretenderS who at different times sought
recognition as Louis XVII. In effect, the
court held that the Revolutionary records,
such as they are, must be regarded as
correct.
But 1t probably is too much to hope
that the world will accept so easy q solution
of one of its favorite historical mysteries.
The official explanation Of the fate Of the
Dauphin was rejected by the investigators
employed by Louis XVIII in 1914 and by
long list Of scholarly inquirers since that
date. A whole library Of books representing
dozens Of theories has accumulated, but no
hypothesis meets all the requirements. The
Lost Dauphin was person Of consequence,
especially after the execution Of his father
on January II, 1893 Partisans of the Rev
olution--JacqueS Rene Hebert for ex-
ample-wanted him iquidated. Several of
his MISUNDERSTANDING the Count Of Pro-
vence-deSired him eliminated. On the
other hand, Naundorn and other subse-
quent claimants had vested interest in
keeping alive the popular notion that "the
child OF the Temple" did escape. Even today
members OF the Bourbon and Hapsburg
lines would be pleased II proof were forth
coming that Louis Charles survived the
Terror, provided he did not leave too
many descendants to challenge their own
pretensionS.
Little, II any, trustworthy evidence now
is known to be extant. The testimony OF
witnesses summoned before the investiga-
tory tribunal l40 years ago was contradic-
tory. 1t added " the prevailing confusion.
The same observation applies to the results
Of the elimination Of the supposed body Of
the Lost Dauphin in 1916. II Desault, the
boys physician. had outlived hins the truth
might have been revealed; but the doctor
died, perhaps Of poison, Just week before
his small patient. George Lenotre, who
spent the best portion Of his career In re-
search on the Revolutionary Era, declared
that "the history Of the captive Dauphin
Is finished" when his custodians. the 81
mons, left the Temple on January ~, 1874.
After that date nothing positive has been
established. The mystery Of ten-year-o ld
Louis XVI parallels in its defiant qualities
the mystery Of the Man IN the Iron Mask.

Juvenile Criminals

The problem posed by the rising tide of
Juvenile crime is not apt to be solved by the
kind Of thinking reflected in Representative
O'Hara's attack on the "coddling theories Of
social workers" or in Senator Hendricksons
recent handwriting speech In which he
denounced the notion that Juvenile "aggreS-
sion" can be successfully met with ag-
gression.
II a satisfactory answer Is found, 1t will
be discovered somewhere between these ex-
tremeS.
At the outset, however, distinction
should be made between juvenile delin-
quency and juvenile criminality. They are
not one and the same. Methods which may
be adequate In coping with the former, such
as the procedures embodied in the Juvenile
Court concept, are grossly inadequate in
dealing with the latter. And the best evil
dence Of this Is found In the sharp rise in
Juvenile crime-Serious crime.
The current controversy revolves around
the bill to transfer Jurisdiction over juvenile
felons from the Juvenile Court to the United
States Attorney. The Star believes that the
passage Of some such legislation is desirable.
This however, would be only one corrective
step. II the tide finally is to be turned in
this losing war against juvenile crime, the
secrecy now imposed by law on the opera
ton Of the Juvenile Court should be abol-
iShed. The mounting juvenile crime Stats
tics argue persuasively that this court Is
failing to do the job for which 1t was de-
signed. And in all probability it will con-
-tinue to fail as long as it is permitted to
Function In the dark.

Somehow you cannot help relating

factors that may be contributing to
current Juvenile" alterations Is the
horror and crime" comic books. He is
guilty Of not making this point clear.
but he presumed that his professional
readers. at least. would not forget the
movies, television, and the radio and
related commonplace forms Of human
communication. At least, that Is the
way I read DR.. Wertham's not par
ticularly significant II well documented
opus.
Immediately. with Freudian COM
pulsiveness. the comic books become
the cause and "raison d'etre" Of all
juvenile delinquency in spades. Maybe.
some comic books have made con-
tribution to what kids are now, as

Castillo and Guatemala

In electing Colonel Carlos Castillo Ar
mas as its President, Guatemala's ruling
military junta-now reduced from i've men
to ttree-has done the logical and expected
thing. After all, as leader Of the revolt that
;overthrew the Communist inf1ltrated Ar
benz regime, the colonel has been more in
line for the office than any Of his compa-
triotS, and the fact that he has been placed
In 1t by unanimous vote indicates that he
enjoys not only popular support but also
strong army backing.
This makes it seem likely that the
junta, under the coloneps direction, will be
able to proceed in good order and on
stable basis to restore q normal way OF life
to Guatemala Presumably, arrangements
will be made in due course for general
election to supplant the present military
rule with a new government equally anti
Communist which Castillo most prob
ably would still be President In any event,
the civil liberties suspended by Arbenz are
scheduled to be reinstated this summer
and there are good signs that the junta's
members believe In the democratic process,
with the proyiso that the right to vote must
be limited to those who can read and write.
AS matters stand, therefore, 1t is more
than probable-and Secretary OF State
Dulles has so intimated-that the United
States will soon extend full recognition to
the junta as regime that has full govern
Ing control and Is pledged to abide by its
international obligations. Such recognition
can hardly fail to strengthen President
Castillo's appeal to his countrymen in what
ever he may undertake to do In an effort TO
promote good future for Guatemala.
