Judge Morris Assai|s
Lack Of Special JaiIs
For District Youths

Federal Judge James w. Nor
ris has deplored the Districts
lack of special institutions for
young criminals, authorized by
the Youth Corrections Act, as "a
tragic situation"
The jurist made the observa-
ton in sentencing three young
men to prison terms yesterday
on charges of robbery and I'M
authorized use of automobiles.
Noting that the Federal act,
providing for specialized insti-
tutional treatment for youths
in an effort to rehabilitate them,
has not yet been supplemented
here. Judge Morris declared:
Surely it is to be hoped that,
with proper institutional treat
ment, these men may be reha-
bilitated." He recommended that
the trio, two 18 years of age
and one 20. be sent where they
can get the most constructive
training available.
Two Sentenced in HoIdup.
The 18-year-olds, Lawrence L.
East. jr., of the $500 block of
Thirteenth street NV, and
John F. Dieffenderfer, of the
400 block of Maryland avenue
S.W.. were given two to l2-year
sentences for the $85 holdup of
a gas station last December.
They also got concurrent two
to 12-year sentences for the sos
holdup of an all-night market
last November, plus concurrent
one to three-year sentences for
two instances of the unauthor-
lied use of automobiles.
The 20-year-old Bonnie Cas-
per. jr,, of the 600 block of G
street S.W.. was sentenced to
from two to nine years in jail
for taking part in the gas sta
ton robbery and from one to
three years for each of the au-
tomobile charges. His sentences
also will run concurrently.
In another case Judge Walter
NJ. Bastian gave David r. Banks,
%. colored. of the 900 block
of M street NV, a total of
from four to IL years for $40
robbery of an ice cream store
and a $50 robbery Of a liquor
store. Judge Bastian ordered
sentences of from two to six
years in each case to run con-
secutively. Banks had pleaded
guilty.
COdefendant Acquitted.
A codefendant in the two
robberies was acquitted by a
jury. The man acquitted is
Richard L. Anderson 81, COL
ored, of the 1900 block of N
street NV.
Samuel S. Watts, jr., %, COL
lored. who is from Liberia, was
given suspended sentences of
one to three years for nine check
forgeries and placed on probation
on condition that he leave this
country. Sentence was by Judge
Bastian. The checks ranged
from $35 to $50. Charges of
cashing the checks were dropped.
According to court papers
Watts came here last September
after having been awarded
scholarship to attend a local
business school. His address was
listed in the 1900 block of Six
teenth street NV.
Judge Charles F. Mclaughlin
gave Thomas H. Adams, 81,
coiored, of the 100 block of
Bryant street NV, from two
to eight years on a charge of
HOUSEKEEPING for entering the
S. S. Kresge store in the HOO
