NEGRO CRIME STATISTICS MISUSED

This Is the article which we be-

ton on Negro crime rates as set
forth in statistics we have read
Negro Crime
Editor-In your january 20 ac-
count Of the hearings conducted in
San Francisco by the United States
Commission on Civil Rights, I am
quoted to the effect that statistics
relating to crimes committed by
racial and ethnic minorities are
the most inadequate and misused
Of any statistics on any public &C
tivity." I would like to use your
letters columns to extend my re-
marks and support that generaliza-
ton -.
When one looks at basic records
on Negroes held in JAIL weight
should be given these considera.
tons: Proportionately more Ne.
groes are retained simply because
they lack money for bail. Court
officials are reluctant to release
Negroes on their own recognize.

ance. Also, judges, aware that Me-
groeS II released might be less
coerced to appear for trial by social
pressures, are hesitant to waive or
reduce bail. Moreover. the crowd
ing of court dockets delays trials,
and this results in more and long
er Incarceration for Negroes. Thus,
II one looks at jail records only,
he gets the impression that Me-
groes perpetrate more and greater
crimes and, further, are poor bail
risks. Such differences are, Of
course, quite tnwarranted.
The bare figures for indictments
and convictions are also mislead-
ing. Cases involving Negroes have
less chance Of being nol-prossed or
dismissed. On equivalent charges
Negroes are more likely to be In
dicted. After indictment, the pos
sibility is greater that Negroes
win be convicted. AS In the matter
Of bail Negroes frequently lack
funds for a good counsel who
might be able to obtain q dismissal
or acquittal.
If Negro cases are handled by
the public defender, his investiga-
tive and trial staff may be too
small to develop and present evid-
ence that would lead to acquittal or
dismissal, in which circumstances
the public attorney may conclude
that the best interest Of his Negro
client is served by pleading him
guilty to a lesser charge acceptable
to the court and the prosecution.
Moreover, after Negroes are con-
victed, they are less likely than
whites to be placed on probation,
the judge concluding that the Of
fender, forced to live in a high
crime area Is a greater recidivist
risk.
Prison records Of Negroes also
give a false impression, for colored

inmates are more likely than others
to serve their full terms, or to be
assigned longer terms under indie
terminate sentencing systems. Ne
groes are generally considered
poorer parole risks. Why? Because
when released they don't as readily
find suitable employment and lv-
ing conditions necessary to success
on parole. Moreover, as a result Of
poorer social and educational baik-
grounds, they are harder to reach
through the overall correctional
program. Thus, their chances for
parole, to say nothing Of their
chances for success If paroled, are
markedly reduced.
And so at every step-from ar
rest to release from prison-raw
data on Negro offenders are mis-
leading because Of distortion by
hidden Var1ables. 1t must be OBJ
vious from the above discussion
that many aspects of ''Negrocrime"
are economic rather that racial
Yet official agencies and public

zens, commonly accept such re-
cords at face value. The result is
a highly inaccurate picture of not

Dear Dan: We've got a big
argument going in our family.
about bathing suits. 1 bought a
two-piece outfit last week and
it's as cute a suit as a girl could
want but my mother says it's too
revealing. My Dad doesn't think
so but Nom is the final authority
on my clothes, so 1 suppose I'll
have to return it.
The thing that gripeS me is nv
brother and his swim trunks. Talk
about something being revealing.
his trunks are just about there
and that's about all. My mother
says l don't have an argument
because swimming suits for girls
and swim trunks for boys are
two entirely different subjects.
What's your opinion, Dan? -
Mermaid.
Dear Mermaid: It may surprise
you but since spring set in, I've
been receiving a number of letters
similar to yours, with mothers
and daughters disagreeing on
sizes, styles and ,coverage areas of
bathing suits.
Your mother is right in that
you can't base your argument on
what you think about your
brothers Swimtrunks. However, I
do know that today some trunks
are ridiculous. Not having seen
your swimming suit, 1 can't say
anything one way or another but
imagine your mother knows best.
For my part, l enjoy seeing a
good looking girl in a bathing suit
but when a suit is obviously too
skinny, I actually feel embarras-
sed for the girl and I'm sure many
other men do too, believe it or
not.

you've been planning to do or &C.

Dear Lindsay: Your girl is
wrong in saying it's your decision.
If you two are that sure about
each other that you're considering
marriage, the decision has to be
both yours. l can't rightly tell you
what to do because there's much
more to the problem than what
you wrote.
l do know if your burning am
bition is to be a teacher and coach.
you'll never be as happy in any
other profession regardless of the
money you make. On the other
hand, if you start college, there's
nothing in the book that says your
girl and you can't get married in
a year or SO. Thousands of girls
have married boys in college and
have seen their husbands become
successful doctors, lawyers, teach
erS and engineers. Therefore, 1
don't think your problem boils
down to what job you should take
or what college you should attend
but rather, how strongly your girl
and VOlI feel about each other and
how many sacrifices you're willing
to make for each other.
