Weapon Against Delinquency

To fight juvenile delinquency, we
must use our most potent weapon
publicity. Crime thrives in the dark.
Juvenile delinquency has increased 90
rapidly that now most people are be-
ginning to appreciate its seriousness.
While it will not make angels Of all
juveniles. going back to the old days
will seem heavenlike.
Juvenile delinquency has been con-
stantly on the rise since juvenile courts
were established and no publicity given
the names of the offenders. Juvenile
delinquents hate the spotlight and their
vandalism got its biggest impetus when
the sob sisters succeeded in preventing
the authorities. police officials and
newspapers from printing names Of
delinquents.
Let's get back to the old days and
publiciZe the names Of these offenders
and their crimes. am sure the parents
of good boys and girls will not permit
their children to play with miscreants.
If they know who they are. until they
refrain from their acts of vandalism
and become good children again.
We have tried the sob sister treat
ment and it has failed. and even the
"do-gooders" have no remedy for the
conditions they have fostered. other
than to blame the schools or parents.
or as few have suggested. pay the
little vandals to be good.

Templeton Jones was riding up in

It was stormy evening, mates, and
Jones was feeling good, as any man
ought to at the age of Is years in this
benighted world.
Jones was whistling. q thing young
men are inclined to, for reasons known
and unknown.
Temp Jones was whistling some such
popular ditty as I'm the Good Old

He wasn't thinking a thing in the
world about the unwritten law of no

say.

Who's that whistling?" snapped the
Big Guy. still himself.
Everybody else in the car looked for
the blow to fall.

Templeton Jones. who didn't have
enough sense to cringe, answered up
boldly enough.

Head In the eye.

Trumun's Hindsiqht on Reds

Harry Truman's face was flashed on
the television screen and he was asked
to comment upon President Eisenhow-
er's proposal to cancel the citizenship
of any one who conspires in the future
to advocate the overthrow Of this Gov
ernment. The answer of the cocky
little man, with one of his typical grins.
was that "All the Communists in my
government put in jail
This brazen Misrepresentation to a
vast television audience. was an insult
to every intelligent American. Our
memories are not so feeble that we
have forgotten the Truman efforts TO
cover up for Alger Hiss and Harry Dex-
ter White.
A fitting excerpt from Fletcher
Knebel's column on January II applies:
There's too much competition, any
way. in this business of chasing Com
munists-now that Harry Truman has
discovered how to put them in jail
retroactively."

This and That

Another secret Of success, in addition
to that of possessing big head. Is the
purely negative one Of permitting no
one to buffalo you.
That doesn't mean going around with
chip on your shoulder, as the Sa-
means say.
ITO buffalo" is a purely American
expression, an idiom from the Plains
States Of the Far West.
When a buffalo got after you. on the
same ground, you were "buffaloed."
and you knew it.
So did the buffalo.
In business pursuits Of one sort or
another, the Buffalo Heads come dime
a dozen, and when they bark at you,
you are supposed to roll over and play
dead, If your salary is less than theirs,
which it usually is.
Don't let them buffalo you. Get
your goat" is good Irish expression,
straight from the little green isle that
made the word emerald" famous.
Keep in mind how that goat man,
Templeton Jones, handled such situa-
ton.
Jones had many bosses. when he was
a young man, but just one real Buffalo
Head.
This man (and q really fine guy he
was tool hated whistling In his build
ing.
His dislike was well known. He didn't
have to put up any signs, or paste q
letter on the bulletin board about 1t.

Nobody was held on any leash, except

Federal Health Policy

hope I have misunderstood DR..
Paul B. Magnuson's proposal for ou1
Nations deficit-spending families to
meet the bankrupting costs of major
illnesses. AS able chairman of the
Presidents Commission on the Health
Needs Of the Nation, 1951-52, and
former chief medical director of the
Veterans Administration, his opinion
should and will command respect. He
proposes $50 limited indemnity health
policy bonded by Federal reinsurance
The Federal guarantee limits liability
to $500 for any one illness and would
not provide self-help until medical
costs exceed one months actual in
come.
Admittedly my objections are those
OF family doctor who is gravely
disturbed by the social insufficiency
of all available solutions for solvent
low-cost health security. None of
them come to grips with the ugly and
heartbreaking reality facing youthful
parents and senior citizens who have
ceased to be workers. Before writing
this letter, I called the Census Bureau
for basic data on income: In 1852,
30 percent Of the Nation, IA years or
older, had total income less than
$4,000.
Actually the MagnuSon plan is q
one-months income deductible in
surance against catastrophe illness.
that does not exceed $2,500a AS a fam
lily doctor see these obvious socio-eco-
nomic insufficiencies. First, in these
days OF Spartan hand-to-mouth family
budgets. why should 80 per cent have
to outlay 1888 (one-month'S income)
before being eligible for disaster relief?
A much less amount would gravely
jeopardize the solvency of the average
family budget. Second. what restraints
will this arbitrary income-level rule
exercise against inevitable presSureS
to initiate minor illness into indemnified
major illness?
1 guarantee that between chiseling
doctors raising their fees and conniv-
ing patients humanity conspiring to
convert deficit into the indemnified,
the plan will go bankrupt. The
Magnuson plan is wide open to
eventual insolvency unless he pro-
poses some method Of making desper-
ate taxpayers cooperate against their
reasonable self-interest. Third, and
most important. the method does not
guarantee low cost self-help for child
bearing unless costly complications
develop. Total costs for w-income
groups can and should be kept below
the one-month income level for normal
pregnancies. Ignore this fact and the
MagnuSon plan invites both doctors
and hospitals to make budget-un-
balancing normal pregnancies qualify
for Federal catastrophe insurance. And
II the farm crop supports are a head
ache to politicians they would be wise
not to invite the delirium inseparable
from inadequate support of the baby
crop. After all, the baby crop provides
future voters, taxpayers, consumers.
workers and defenders. It might be
good politics to treat them fair. The
baby crop is everybody's business.

Against Relaxing Blue Lows

The attack by the Rev. w. H. Bran
son, president Of the General Confer
ence Of Seventh-Day AdventiSts. on
revived enforcement of the Maryland
blue law, as reported in The Star.
should arouse citizens and churches to
the defense and greater enforcement
of the so-called Blue Laws" which
prohibit certain labor on Sunday.
The Rev. Mr.. Branson is quoted as
having stated that Maryland has
among its citizens thousands Of
Seventh-Day Adventists-all Of whom
rest and worship on Saturday. En-
forced rest also on Sunday would there
fore deprive these citizens of q portion
of their livelihood"
The Blue Laws Of Maryland are said
to be 23l years old and they. together
with similar laws Of other States, are
the very fundamentals Of the people
Of the United States where Sunday has
been and still is the lawful national
day Of rest and religious observance
since the very foundation of America.
If the Rev Mr. Branson were to have
his way, where would other churches
stand with respect to traditional Sun
day observance? They would soon find
it impossible to carry on their religious
work against the fierce competition Of
an "open Sunday" with houses of
amusement open all day, hundreds Of
thousands of people forced to work on
Sunday, taverns and other places of
iniquity running fun blare and few. if
any, available to 60 to church.

More Punch for NATO

The firepower of the North Atlantic Treaty
Organization continues to increase on signifl-
cant scale The latest evidence Of this is the
announcement that our Air Force will send two
"squadrons" of pilotless Matador bombers to
West Germany this year.
According to the little that has been re-
vealed about it thus far, the Matador is
truly formidable ground-to-grourd guided
missile Looking much like jet plane minus
the pilots cockpit, and equipped with an
auxiliary rocket engine for launching purposes,
1t is said to have range of more than 300
miles and a speed approximating the speed
OF sound. In addition, as weapon OF extra
ordinary precision, it is reported to be subject
to full electronic control from the time it is
let loose until it reaches its target And the
general assumption iS-an assumption hardly
to be doubted-that it is capable of delivering
tremendous atomic wa1lop
Although conventional squadron OF piloted
light bomberS usually Is made up OF Is planes,
squadron" of Matadors-since they are
unnamed and xpendable-probably has con-
siderably more than that number of missiles
in 1t. In any case, now that our forces in
West Germany are to be equipped with these
air weapons (and there are other guided types,
further advanced, for varying uses), the de-
fensive and offensive potential Of the Atlantic
Alliance obviously will have additional punch
in it-over and above what is being added by
the process of bolstering our NATO divisions
with several" battalions (six to battalion)
of our giant -millimeter atomic guns.
All this is In keeping with the National
Security Councils basic decision to promote
interallied security by relying primarily on mas
sive retaliatory power to deter Red aggression
Certainly, coupled with A-cannon and strategic
air power, things like Matador squadrons in
West Germany can help materially to Offset
the numerical superiority of Soviet infantry
perhaps enough 80 to dissuade the Kremlin from
ever attacking free Europe.

New Setback for the Parkway

Prospects for completion of the George
Washington Memorial parkway along the Vir-
ginia shore of the Potomac River have become
bleaker than ever. The latest setback was the
failure of Governor Battle to include park
way appropriation in his proposed budget for
the next two years. This was not just an
oversight. Virginia's retiring Governor ap-
parently was out of patience with the Federal
Government for its long delay in keeping its
part of the parkway bargain. At matter Of
fact, Virginia has a right to be disgruntled.
1t was at the urgent request of the National
Capital Planning Commission and of Northern
Virginia authorities that Governor Battle made
a special and successful effort to obtain from
the previous General Assembly $150,000 ap-
preparation for the project. This sum was to
be matched by Arlington and Fairfax Counties
and the total of all these contributions then
was to be matched by the United States Under
q similar division Of COSTS the memorial park
way has been extended along the Virginia
palisades as far as Lorcom lane, in Arlington.
Rights of way have been purchased as far as
the Fairfax line and the latter county has al
lotted funds to share its part of further right
of-way acquisitions.
All of Virginias contributions have been
contingent on Federal appropriations. But
for the past three years Congress has refused
10 appropriate any money Whatever Tor the
parkway. presumably for economy reasons. To
add to the encouragement of parkway spon-
sors, the Federal Budget Bureau last year in
r dicated that it might recommend abandon
ment of the whole Capper- -Cramton parkway
program and the return of such development
work to Virginia and Maryland. Such policy
would virtually mean the end of further work
on the George Washington Memorial parkway.
Congress ought not contribute to the prema-
ture death of this important project. Certainly,
If the Federal Government reneges on its
agreement the States cannot be expected to
take over the whole project and carry it to
completion.

Stotes and the Voting Age

There seems to be nothing intrinsicaliy
wrong with the idea of lowering the minimum
voting age in this country from 81 years to 18
Many 18-year-olds undoubtedly have at least
as much political sense as some people in their
S0s 40s Sos, COS and 70s. Further. as has been
asked on more than few occasions in the past
ESPECIALLY during the Second World War;, If
these younger folk have the duty Of serving
in the armed forces of the United States, why
should they not also have the privilege Of cast
ing their ballots in presidential and congress
sional elections?
Actually when it comes to voting, nobody
knows exactly why our country and the Anglo
Saxon world as a whole have for so long re-
garded 81 years as The best minimum age
Ancient Greece and Rome were less finicky
about the matter, and today many nations
including the Soviet Union and several in Latin
America-have an electorate broad enough to
embrace the 18-year-olds. Indeed, one of our
own States-Georgia-haS had such an electo-
rate since the presidential election of 1914, and
II all the At other States followed suit, and
thus increased the number of voters by about
10 per cent, the political impact of the change
would be mild enough except in the rather
improbable event that the newly enfranchised
youngsters would side overwhelmingly with one
or the other Of the two major parties.
With all that SAID, however, tnere IS Stlu
reason to question the wisdom of President
Eisenhower's proposal for a constitutional
amendment to lower the minimum age for
voters from 81 to 18 AS it now stands, our
Constitution leaves it to the individual States
to determine all such voting qualifications for
their citizens The principle Of States rights
which the President has repeatedly indorsed-
IS involved here. Why push 1t to one side in this
particular field? Why not let the various States
decide for themselves whether or not they
want to do what Georgia has done and what
Governor ByrneS now advocates for South Caro-
lima? The issue is not an urgent or pressing
one. The life of the Republic is not dependent
on resolving it in hurry. So why try to deal
with it by tinkering with the basic law Of the
the realm Of State responsibility?
If there must be any kind of constitutional
amendment on voting lit is difficult to see why
there must be-, and If the objective Is to in
crease the size Of the electorate, then the
President and Congress might be better advised
to seek change that would make it compulsory
s-as in New Zealand and Australia-for eligible
citizens to vote in national elections. Tre-
mendous numbers of Americans ignore that
privilege and duty and perhaps they ought to
be obliged by law to end their apathy. But
that, too, like the question of lowering the
minimum age, seems to be primarily a State
responsibility. Taken as a whole, this Is field
in which there is considerable reason to doubt
the soundnesS or necessity Of Federal action.

To the Editor Of The Star:

II HIS is the protest Of one aroused
i housewife, and ] might add very
bitter one, under the circumstances.
We hear that the butter surplus
may be solved by exporting to-
all people-the Russians! oh shades
of 43 when butter became al
most extinct>for US. In those days It
was stockpiled for the Armed Forces.
and we came of necessity to be re-
signed to mash UP the white stuff and
try to fool ourselves that 1t tasted the
same, II used sparingly. And while
there was inadequate supply for normal
civilian use we were told that butter
was going as a special treat to recupera-
tive Russian soldiers. recall few
people voiced skepticism at the wisdom
Of cultivating taste for butter among
a people ordinarily not accustomed to
it when q variety of fats would have
been Of equal benefit and just as
welcome.
Now we find again that because Of
the farmers unwillingness to face
falling-of Of their high-level incomes.
price supports must be maintained.
But since most of us cannot buy all the
butter we would like and could ad-
vantageously use. we pay for it only by
contributing toward its support, to
keep it away from our tables. And now
the Russians will benefit by our inabil-
ity to use what we would like and need
and cannot touch because, while it is
surplus, it Is financially out of reach.
And the Russians will get it at a price
half what we pay. At that price
would use at least four times what I
use now and If others did likewise the
surplus would come into balance quite
normally. 1t sometimes seems as If the
simple thing were too obscure for the
highly trained specialists who tangle
our problems for us.
Perhaps it is time for the housewives
to organize a militant force which
could make itself felt believe we
could become quite articulate. and by
persistent propaganda we could elimi-
nate butter entirely from our diet.

Wants Music HuIl

We Washington music lovers should
unite and use as our slogan: 1--WE Want

place suitable for opera, concerts and
balletS becomes more apparent with

spoiled the acoustics, but we must not
forget that the OAR Hall is pri-
marily for meetings and not for musical
