RESCUE: Journalist Haywood

a Yale alumnus who had rescued
a child from the path OF a run

Just like a Yale man to do 1t

New Attitude Noted
For the most part, the FBI

officers willing to cooperate in
civil rights Investigations.
An attitude has developed -
and is growing-that If police

brutally and denied him his civil
rights, then the officer deserves

true, then the officers innocence

In Government

Chicago who was slain in Missis-
sippi after he allegedly made in
decent remarks to a white
woman.
The Justice Departments
Criminal Division decided that
the FBI should not enter the
case.
Local Prejudice
The reasoning behind this de-
olson was that while murder no
doubt had been done, the Fed
eral Government had no au-
thority to investigate and prose-
cute murder unless a Federal law
had been violated. Unless and
until Congress passed a law COW
ering such cases. Federal inter-
vention would be an invasion of
States rights.
One OF the greatest barriers
encountered by the FBI in civil
rights violations has been local
prejudice. Juries have refused
to convict even when defendants
confessed.
In l947 in South Carolina, a
cab driver was fatally stabbed
near the town of Liberty. A
Negro suspect named Willie Earle
was arrested and taken to the
Pickens County Jail for question:
ing. He protested his innocence.
Word Of the arrest spread.
Soon a mob armed with shotguns
and knives was racing for the
jail. Earle was dragged from his
cell and pushed into an auto
mobile. Near the Saluda Dam.
the caravan halted and the
prisoner confessed" to the
crime.
The mob beat Willie Earle and
stabbed him with knives. Finally
shotgun blasts snuffed out the
last small flame of life.
Confessions From rs
The Justice Department au-
thorized the FBI to conduct a
full investigation because Mr..
Earle had been in custody OF an
officer and there was a posibi-
lily that his civil rights had been
denied under color OF law" by
his iailer's willingly giving help
to the mob or being derellct in
his duty. The FBI's investigation
exonerated the jailer.

THE COUNCILS VIEW
Lorraine was very wrong TO
tell Harold what her family and
frineds said about him. Evidently
she felt 1t was not true since
she went ahead and married
him. She probably does not feel
1t is true now. but is using it as
a weapon against him to stop
his nagging for more money.
On the other hand, Harold
was wrong to make an issue OF
the money when he saw that his
wife did not wish to ask for 1t
Most married persons feel as
Lorraine does, and do not like
to come to their parents fol-
money. unless 1t is absolutely
necessary.
Harold is also wrong to set
himself UP as judge OF what his
in-laws can well afford" 1t Is
unlikely that he has full knowl-
edge of their resources and their
plans for the future. He Is
assuming a certain right over
their income which his marriage
to their daughter does not grant
him.
Lorraine should try to put the
poisonous suspicious about her
husband out Of her mind and
recognize the significant facts
that Harold points out--that he
asked her to marry him before
he knew about the dowry and
that he has not absconded with
her money but invested 1t In a
business which will probably
benefit their children. II was
natural for him to react by treat
ing her "coldly" when she showed
him the suspicious OF her mind.
Harold and Lorraine owe each
other apologies--and forgiveness.

in order that we may prevent
it tomorrow. One of the primary
causes of the alarming increase
In crime among our young peo-
pie, for example. has been the
disintegration of the home as a
guiding influence.
1.-THE tremendous number of
parents who have entered the
armed services and war indus
tries no longer can exercise suf-
ficient control over their sons
and daughters"
Much of the crime increase
could be accounted for by the
increase in the Nations popula-
ton. But that wasn't the whole
answer by any means. From
1a45 to 1856, population in
creased 24.3 per cent while crime
increased 44.5 per cent.
Juvenile Rate High
A few statistics tell a part of
the story. The major crimes
committed in 355 cities in the
prewar years, 1937-39, averaged
630.257 each year. These were
crimes Of murder, manslaughter,
rape. robbery. aggravated assault.
burglary, larceny and automobile
theft. In these same cities. the
major crimes in the postwar
years 1865 averaged almost
100000 each year. In 1855, a
serious crime was committed on
an average of every 1879 seconds.
The most shameful part of the
postwar crime record was the
number of teen-age children in
volved in major law violations.
Boys and girls under Is were
involved in 42.3 per cent of the
arrests made for major crimes.
and almost half of these were
under is. The reports showed
that 62.2 per cent of those ar
rested in 1855 for automobile
thefts and SGT per cent of those
arrested for burglary had not
reached their 18th birthday.
FBI Starts School
The bare statistics standing
by themselves gave the fright
ening impression that young
people had no moral restraints
and were running wild. Such an
impression was false, Of course,
but the situation was disgraceful
and there was confusion across
the land.
AS early as 1916, Mr.. Hoover
considered the problem so press
ing that he directed the organi-
cation Of an FBI Juvenile Delin-
quency Instructors School in
which special agents were as
signed to a broad research
project. supplemented by lee
lures from well-known authori-
