Head of title: "Prevention of crime better than cure."

"The Association has formulated laws for the consideration of the legislatures of all states, territories and cities relating to crimes among minors. Two ordinances, 'The American Curfew,' and that 'for restoring truant and tramping boys and girls to their homes,' where enacted and enforced are reducing crimes among youths in cities and towns with a promptness that has never before in our history been equaled." --p.
