GANG WAR IN
u. S. CITIES

Many Americans living in
small communities and in rural
areas are unaware of the lawleSs
order Of life which has developed
among many youngsters in this
country's larger cities. This prob
lem, called juvenile delinquency,
is especially acute in cities like
New York and Chicago, where
gang wars often break out among
youngsters.
Recently, in New York, a fifteen
year old lad, William Blankenship,
Jr., was killed by the leader of a
rival gang because he was a mem
Der of the wrong gang. The killer
told authorities he had used a gun
because he was a boxer and did
not want to hurt his knuckles.
The dead boys father, William
Blankenship, ST., has already
moved his family from that city,
into Pennsylvania, but he is stay
ing in New York in an effort to
fight the rise of gang wars and
juvenile terror, so that New York
City can be made a safe place to
live in again.
The seriousness of what a
mounts to a jungle atmosphere in
many sections of this country's
largest cities has been emphasized
by a congressional study into the
problem. One approach to the
problem would be the sending of
juvenile delinquents into the ma
TONS forests and parks, in an eff
fort to teach them real values,
outdoor life, and to give them the
satisfaction of honest work. Some
such national approach to the
problem might be in order if the
trend toward gang-wars in our
cities is not reversed.
The present state of juvenile
delinquency in some of u cities
is a disgrace to the nation, and a
poor commentary on our social
system.

SCHOOL CHILDREN
SAVE FOR

Three thousand children in the
schools of British Columbia are
engaged in a joint saving effort,
designed to put them through uni
verSities and other institutions OF
higher learning.
From Vancouver, in British Co.
1umbia, comes the report that
some forty schools are participant
ing in this program. The plan is
known as the Credit Union School
Savings Club.
The whole thing began eight
years ago, and the idea was that
the students would carr money,
put it in a joint saving effort and
then have the money, or part of it
which would put them through
institutions of higher learning. A
club director of the program in
British Columbia said the children
in the forty schools have saved
100000 already, and r building
good citizenship and character.
We commend this system to
schools in the United States as a
character-builder and as a meth
cd of getting more of our students
to go to colleges.

Senator Humphrey, Democrat,
of Minnesota, said today the fall
of French Premier Mendes-
France could be a crisis for this
country because the future of
Western Germany is the most
vital factor in the struggle be-
tween the free world and COM
munism.
His warning was based on a
fear that the change in French
leadership might endanger the
half-completed treaties for re-
arming Western Germany as
part of NATO.
The Minnesotan, a member of
the Foreign Relations Commit
tee, added:
I'VE thought we had the situ-
alton nailed down in Europe. but
it is far from nailed down."
Keep Eye on Europe.
The Senator recalled that Mr.
Mendes-France pushed through
the French Assembly not only
the rearming of Wesv Germany
but also the Southeast Asia de-
fense pact, which the Senate
ratified this week.
Senator Humphrey also urged
Americans to keep one eye on
Communist intentions in Europe
while contemplating the critical
situation in the vicinity of
Formosa.
He intimated the Soviet may
be trying to get the United
States involved in trouble in
the Pacific, thousands of miles
away from Germany, which he
pictured as the more vital of the

Meanwhile, the State Depart

fall of another French premier
was an internal matter, on

not be proper.
American officials expressed
the hope privately that French
leaders would be able to agree
quickly on the formation of a

hoped the new premier would

with the agreements to bring

Change Might Be Fata

treaty that Spurred on the gov
ernment of Mr.. eS-France.
Change Might Be Fatal.
In this case, any amendment
of the treaty by the French
Senate might be fatal. The
Assembly would then be called
on to reopen debate on the whole
issue and, lacking firm govern
ment leadership, might well
accept radical changes in the
original version. At that point,
the prospect would become very
gloomy indeed: Another confer
ence like the one in Brussels last
August in which the French gov
ernment tried unsuccesSfully to
force sweeping amendments to
EDO on the other members of
the European community.
1t is paradoxical, perhaps, that
the German government, which
viewed Mr.. Mendes-France ar
rival on the scene with such pro-
found misgivings, should be so
upset by his departure. 1t is per-
haps some measure of satisfac-
ton to the former Premier that
he should be considered here
and indeed throughout much of
western coalition as the one in
dispensible Frenchman in the

Air Force Preparing
For Any Threats by
Reds, Twiining Says
BY the Associated Press

Gen Nathan F. Twining said
today the Air Force is equipping
its striking forces SO they will
be Immediately ready for Com
muniSt military aggression of
any type from limited to general
war"
The Air Force chief of staff
said the forces are being made
ready by converting all the long
range bomber forces from propel-
ler planes to jet aircraft and by
giving the tactical forces tire
mendous striking power as re-
suit of our increasing supply of
nuclear weapons"
Big Enough for Job.
Gen. twining voiced the opin-
ion, in a speech prepared for the
National Council of the Reserve
Officers Association that the
scheduled Air Force goal of 1877
wings by July. 1857, will be big
enough to handle the job. He
said all the wings must be of su-
perior quality in both men and
equipment.
Gen. Twining said the Russians
have worked hard to develop
nuclear weapons and that these
combined with their improved
airpower form the main military
threat to our continent.
He said the Russians have
slowed their campaign to in
crease the number of airplanes,
and are concentrating instead on
improving the quality of their
equipment.
Soon as Possible.
The Air Force chief said that
there will be clear-cut mobili-
zation day requirement for 81
combat wings in the National
Guard and Air Reserve and that
the Air Force wants to man these
units at war strength as soon
as possible.
Gen. Twining said the Air
Force will assign reservists to
specific M-day jobs whether
they volunteer or not. but we
will not force them to participate
in training" He. said the Air
Force believes it can get enough
voluntary participation to reach
an eventual strength of $4,000

Peiping S Attitude
Criticized by Three
Indian Newspapers
BY The Associated Press

NEW DELHI, India. Feb. S.
Peiping's rundown of the United
Nations Security Councils invi-
tation to discuss FormoSa
touched off a rare blast today at
the Red Chinese by Indian news
papers.
OF five English Language news
papers published here, three
raped the Communists. and one
mildly supported them. The fifth
remained silent but previously
had limited that Peiping should
accept.
Today's editorial comment is
the first big reaction here on
FormoSa since Prime Minister
Nehru went to the London COM
monwealth premiers' meeting.
The influential Times of India,
said Red China's attitude is
"tantamount to spuning the
United Nations while simultane-
ously complaining that 600 mil
lion people of China are not
represented in the international
organization.
Unimpressiye Claim.
The paper added it was "ele-
mentary" that the Reds claim
to a Security Council seat would
be more impressive if Peiping
displayed greater evidence of
sincere desire to cooperate with
the United Nations" in solving
the problem.
The pro-government Indian
Express said it regretted Pei
pings reply and added "the rea-
sons given are no doubt valid
but the uncompromiSing tone of
the reply was hardly warranted. A"
The British-owned Statesman
said Red China'S answer "looks
uncomfortably like a heavy blow
to the cause of peace" The
Statesman, which often reflects
the Indian Foreign Ministry
viewpoint, added that the Com
munists' wellwishers may well
be dismayed by such an ap-
proach."
Lone Supporter.
Only the strongly Nationalist
Hindustan Standard supported
Peiping. But even this paper
noted many would have liked
the Chinese reply to be little
less fortnight and a little more
conciliatory."
The Hindustan Times avoided
comment today but on Wednes-
day declared lit must be to
