Tough Problem

We did not envy Judge Fraleys predcament this week.
1t his responsibility pass sentence upon two juveniles
who apprehended last week they about make
a getaway with merchandise valued at more than $1,100
from local store. There certainly definite RESPONSE
bty to society, to parents and to the individuals directly
CONCERNED The entire problem of what to do with juveniles
who violate the proper rules of society is tough
We all wonder what is the correct answer Sunday School
and church participation is certainly the in many
may series of lectures nterspersed in the
high school curriculum the junior high level is plain
that these things happen spite of parental They hap
pen regardless of the fact that these youths presumably
engaged in worthwhile activities such Little League Pony
League Junior High basketball TeenAge club Boy Scouts
and all the rest So just the fact that parents take in
terest in keeping children occupied in worthwhile programs
isn't always the
1t should make keeny at all times that the
directors and sponsors Of supervised recreation pro-
should be of the finest moral character They should
be examples that young boys will want to follow The Little
League for instance would have lasting effect young
if the adults who running league do not por
tray the highest type of craftsmanship themselves The
holds in Scouting, high school athletics, or any
other youth activity
In general ought to feel fortunate in our own COM
munity In talking to people from other areas especially
cities, get the general idea that don't know well
off The troubles youngsters get into this com
munty appear mighty small compared other sections of
the state nation
But that doesn't give the right to be complacent
about the situation In spite of what attempted here
children just can't abide by the rules and as re-
suit they going to be properly disciplined We realize
it is hard parents But if these youth continue to 90 un
punished for actions that reach serious proportions are
unfair to the children themselves eventually and to society
in general right Let these other youth who have SINH
lar tendencies learn good lesson from this occasion in add
ton to the two who will have plenty of time to ponder
their folly.

sylvania and West Virginia
DR.. Kenneth B. Babcock, com
mission director, said in the report
there are approximately 5000 hos
pitfalls eligible for accreditation
and that the omission of a hospital
from the list did not necessarily
mean it had failed to pass an ac-
creditation test. He said the pro-
gram is a voluntary one and only
those hospitals which request sur
veys and arc visited and undergo
a study of its facilities and patient
care arc eligible. Hospitals with
fewer than 25 beds arc not eligible

Red Cross Is Asked
To Extend Campaign

A request that the Red Cross
campaign for funds be extended
because of the fact that national
funds are at an all-time low, due to
many disasters, was received this
week by Mrs. E. Z. Tower, county
chairman, from General Walter
Gruenther, president of the Ameri-
can Red Cross.
Apparently campaigns all over
the country are tagging and addi-
tional effort will be made in en-
deavor to obtain the desired quotas.
In this county, with a goal of ST.
200, Mrs. Kermit Glotfelty, of Acct
dent, roll call chairman, said that
approximately $1,000 had been re-
ceived to date. Mrs. Glotfelty said
she was asking each community
chairman to make plans for some
activity in which communities may
participate following the Easter
holidays. They are also being
urged to make doubly sure that
their entire territory has been COW
cred before turning in final fig
urcs.
Last year the total amount raised
was $1,000, which also fell short Of
the goal.
A breakdown of the Red Cross
dollar shows the following distri-
button; Disaster relief, 8 cents;
home nursing, 4 cents; fund drive,
3 cents; first aid, cents; telephone,
postage and kilograms, 16 cents;
civilian and veteran services, 81
cents; whole blood program, 35
cents.

Six Persons Apply
For AssessOrship

Six persons had made applica-
ton in writing for the position of
County Assessor this week, it was
learned yesterday at the office of
the County Commissioners. Appli-
cations are for the position made
vacant by the death of John II.
Stevenson.
The applicants were Arthur Cal
houn, Paul w. Fisher, G. Harold
YutZy, ROLAND G.. Schoch, John l..
Fitzwater, Jr., and r. T. Brohawn.
1t was understood that others also
were interested
The salary involved is $500, half
of which is paid by the State Tax
commission. A bill which passed
the legislature but which has not
yet been signed by the governor
would increase that salary to S.
600, while also increasing the sal
airy of the Supervisor of Assess
ments to $4,000. Under the recent
legislation sixty percent of the sal
airy would be borne by the State
Tax commission.
1t was probable that the appli-
cants would be interviewed in the
office of the State Tax commits
sion and a test given to each appli-
cant, after which the commission
would indicate those who qualify
to the County Commissioners. The
Commissioners would be respon-
sible for the appointment
