He testified before the House
Committee on Foreign Affairs,
which is conducting hearings in
to the Mutual Security Program.
DR.. Nuesse's testimony support
ed a previous statement made
before the Committee by Father
James l.. Wizard, ST., vice-pres-
ident of the National Catholic
Rural Life Conference.
DR.. Nuesse specifically men,
toned statements made by His
Holiness Pope Plus XII and three
Catholic organizations on assist
ance to underprivileged nations.
He said "the Catholic Associa-
ton for International Peace
(CAIP), the National Catholic
Rural Life Conference and the
National Council of Catholic
Women have followed the
development of foreign aid pro-
grams with keen interest"
He quoted from a statement
made by the Pope in 1855 TO q
World Petroleum Cong ess.
The Pope said then: THE ma.
tural riches Of a region, a eoun-
try or a continent are destined
not Just for the economic profit
of a few. but for the improve

of all material, but also and

Dr. HueSSe SAID that the CAIP
has repeatedly emphasized in its
policy statements that economic
and technical assistance pro-
grams should be accepted as one
of the most effective long-range
means of more justly distributing
the worlds resources of knowl-
edge and skill to all men !"
The policies of the us. in aid
ing foreign countries, he con-
tinued, "ought to rest on convic-
ton and principle, not upon ex-
pediency and competitive bidding
in the cold war"
He said that programs of mill
tary assistance and economic aid
should be separate, because "this
would eliminate much confusion

and il would help to clarity

Juvenile
Crime Hits
.NelU High

NEW YORK-NC) - Juvenile
crime has spurted to a new high
in 1856, the annual report of the
New York Police Department dis
closed.
To cope with the problem, Po-
lice Commissioner Stephen P.
Kennedy told Mayor Robert F.
Wagner in a letter accompanying
the report, the home, religion,
school and other community agen-
cies, both official and non-govern-
mental, must assume their fair
share of this concededly enor-
nous responsibility"
II was the eighth consecutive
year when an increase in youth
crime occurred, the report said.
Arrests of children under is in
creased by 32.5-the greatest per-
centage increase for any cate
CORY of arrests. Girls accounted
for IL per cent of the arrests
for juvenile delinquency. In the
16-to-20 age group, arrests in
Ncreased 1877 per cent, the report
said.
Commissioner Kennedy told
Mayor Wagner that the report
showed a decline in the number
of juvenile delinquency cases
where concentrated police activ-
ity has been specifically focused
on the problem of youth crime"
However, he pointed out that
the problem of juvenile crime
was not one for the police alone
Neither the police nor any
other criminal law enforcement
agency" he reminded. has ever
been able by itself to build char
acter, or develop all the desirable
habits, attitudes, interests and
ideals necessary for worthwhile
life in the community"
