C o M M U NICATION TO THE NUGGET

It seems to me that the people in this world are getting very small when it comes to the point where they begin to protect those who contribute to the delinquency of minors.
 realize that I am a CT and that l am not supposed to enter into civic affairs. But I will say this, that under our democratic form of government, am free to determine my own thoughts and to speak them as long as I do not discriminate against any per- son or organization. As an Amer ican citizen and a father of two fine boys, I sincerely believe that 1 would give up every year of my Army career to fight for the prin- ciples in which I believe. One of the foremost is the welfare of our youth. My two boys are part of this, as are all of the children in this world.
 Through two wars the men and women of America have fought to preserve the freedom and protec- tion of America, their homes and families. Thousands upon thou sands have given their lives to protect their children. know that if those who gave their lives were alive today and could see the situ- ation in Nome and in their home towns today, they would be will ing to bear arms against those

who are contributing to the de- linquency of these children.
 As an example, I will give you two figures for New York City. This is just one city in this world. It alone should be the basis for us to try to help these children. The New York Police Department states that the problem is ever increasing to the point where it is almost out of hand. Why? Because adults are willing to give them liquor or sell them dope. In one year, in the 16- to 21-year age group, the figure rose to 12,470, a Is percent increase. In the 16 and under group, the figure increased 25 percent in one year.
 Now, I have a little information that should set many parents to thinking, In New York's China Town, where 10000 people are living on eight square blocks, there is no juvenile delinquency. Why? The answer to this question is a refutation of many of our cherished beliefs concerning the training of our children and a stinging rebuke for our own ac- tions: as parents and citizens, inc Chinese parents do not fail. They teach their children an age-old custom, filial piety. This is the basis of virtue and culture. It be- gins with serving ones parents and leads to serving ones kind, and ends in establishing ones character and doing the right thing according to the right nor als, thus leaving a good name to posterity. We, as parents, citizens and teachers should follow the example set by the Chinese.
 Our juvenile problem has aris- en from our failure to meet the emotional and physical needs of our children and our failure to protect them from harmful com munity influence. We have to back our police department in every move that they make to curb this ever increasing prob lem. If we do not back them, then there is no need to have a law enforcement agency
 In many of our cities, such clubs as "non-virgin" clubs have been started. This is a club where innocent girls join and are then forced into being used After this, they are disgraced and too ashamed to go to their parents and explain to them what has happened. They leave home and soon have to become prostitutes

Dulles Asks Egypt To Consider Plan For Suez Canal
Continued from Page One) economy than small tankers passing through the canal.

There is talk of new pipelines. I would hope that the governing board of the users association would keep in touch with all the projects and keep all of the mem bers informed of any serious de- velopments which would materi- ally affect our economic lives"
 Dulles has denied the associa- tion might organize a boycott of the canal. But he has offered to make loans available, thru the Import Export Bank, to those na- tions that would be hit by the higher costs of shipping goods, especially oil, the long way around South Africa.
 q know that the government of Egypt can always, by the use of force, interrupt traffic through the Suez Canal, and that there fore transit must depend upon Egypt's good faith and good will" y" Dulles said. But there are many sanctions against open and fore ible interruptions of free passage" "

CONVENTION NEWS
FLOOD TAKES TOLL
or TYPEWRITERS

From The Star Convention Bureau
CHICAGO-Gift-h orse-in-
the-mouth department:
A leading manufacturer
of typewriters put several
dozen spanking-new ma
chimes at the disposal of the
press. here to cover the
Democratic National Con-
vention.
Within 48 hours of their
installation in a press room
at the Conrad Hilton Hotel,
the hard-to-satis newsmen
were calling for help.
Nothing was wrong with
the typewriters themselves.
1t was just that with the
reams of convention copy
being written the ribbons
were wearing out.
A haStily-placed order for
400 typewriter ribbons solved
the problem and Gained the
writer's frayed nerves, too.

to the music. One had no way OF
knowing whether Mr.. Truman
was approaching Mr.. Regan's
Gaelic harmonieS or the tinkling
of the accompanying piano.
1t was obvious, as he testified
before the platform committee
that Mr.. Truman relished the
role imposed on him. But he per-
sisted in denying that he was an
"elder statesman" AS he had
pointed out at his press con-
ference earlier in the day, IAN
elder statesman is a dead pol
itician."
And no one in his right mind
yesterday would have commended
that Harry S. Truman was any,
thing but very much alive.

straight as a ramrod and his lips
parted in a grin, strobe across
the lobby toward the committee

disappeared into that hot box

He and his encourage retired
to an aforementioned suite up
stairs. and returned to the May
fair Room on the dot of 2::30
for his appearance before the
platform committee.
Bouquets for "Mr. Democrat"
There was nothing at the COM
mittee meeting too nice for the
committee members to say about
Harry Truman. He was one of
the greatest Americans and one
of the greatest Presidents, &C
cording to Chairman John
Mccormack of Massachusetts.
Other committeeman prefaced
their remarks with kind words
for the party's former standard
bearer.
A delegate from Puerto Rico
injected a little Latin fire into
the proceedings by rafting off,
in Spanish-accented English, an
to Mr.. Truman, whom
he called the greatest of leaders.
Even Phil Regain, the Irish
American singer who vocalizes
at Democratic conventions as
Gene Archer does at G.. o. P.
meetings, dedicated his song,
"Toora-Loora- Loora," to Mr..
Truman, whom Mr.. Regain ap-
pointed an honorary Irishman
for the occasion.
The honorary Irishman sat

Mr.. Truman's appearance. Dele

nlgnt the 7Z-year-Old former
President was the conquerine
hero.
He played the role to the hilt
and made no secret of his en-.
joyment, which at times ap.
peared to approach glee.

hell a polite household phrase
knew that the faithful were hun.

Though he professed early If
the day that he didn't know
what a reporter meant by 8

on he managed to disencumbel
himself of this all-encompassine
indictment of the hated Repub-
licans:
II don't think the present ad-
ministration knows anything
about anything it's doing any
where"
dig lnrOng AT station
Mr.. Truman came in from
Kansas City on an overnight
train and was greeted at the sta
ton by a huge throng of polit-
ically minded persons of all ages.
Among the we'll wisherS up
bright and early to welcome him
was Adlai Stevenson, by all re-
ports the front-runner at the
convention which opens here
Monday.
So great was the crowd on the
narrow platform between two
trains that even Mr.. Stevenson
got pushed around a bit.
Miraculously. nobody pushed
Mr.. Truman. Almost as if he had
a flying wedge in front of him,
the ubiquitous crowds gave way
a little whenever he approached.
There seemed to be for him not
only great affection, but also
great respect.
If any element of the Demo-
cratic Party was hostile to the
former President yesterday, and
reports are that some delegates
from south of the Mason-Dixon
line hold him in adherence
their hostility was not manifest
anywhere.
Crowds Along the Way
From the cheering throng at
the railroad station, Mr.. Tru-
man escaped for a few moments,
only to run into an equal crush
outside the Sheraton-B Blackstone
in narrow Balbo drive, which
separates the Blackstone from
the huge headquarters hotel, the
Conrad Hilton.
He got through that one to
encounter another crowd in the
lobby of the Blackstone.
For roughly an hour "a
half yesterday morning, Mr.
Truman had relative peace and
quiet in his suite. Then he went
downstairs to an uproarious. hi
larious press conference in the
grand ballroom. where more than
200 reporters were waiting for
the word from the man who
yesterday. at least-was Mr..
Democrat.
The next appearance Of the
former President was before the
platform committee in the swell
tering Mayfair Room, half a
flight above the Blackstone lobby
Mr.. Truman was scheduled to
appear at 2:30. BY Q o'clock, the
lobby was damned.
In contrast to other meetings
of the platform committee, to
which the public was freely adj
mitted--and for the most part
stayed away in droves-the May

properly eliminated or relegated

Durante's loyalty to his part

standable and their collabora-
tons together can be enjoyable.
But when the Durante show was
reduced from an hour to a half
hour show, their part remained
the same and it threw the whole
out of balance. In cutting down
on the contributions Of the guest
stars, the heart of the show was
seriously affected.
Next season, it's reported that
Durante and company will drop
the half hour series and resume
on a once-a-month basis. I hope
these rumorS are correct.

infinitely preferable to three
