A. (All payabU Memtw ol the Audit Barean of VOLUME XLIV No. 155 Problem Of Delinquency Delinquency involving the welfare of minors seems to become more and more complicated. And discussion thus far has done little to improve the situation. First, the Issue was juvenile delinquency, and special court procedure was set up to rescue young folks whose wayward conduct indicated they were headed in the wrong direction.

They were victims of association with evil companions. Segregation of mcorrigibles was tried and various other schemes, but the time never came when reformers could sit back and say that the problem of juvenile delinquency could be considered solved. Then a new term was introduced: "parental Juvenile court judges, impressed by the number of cases which indicated parents were not meeting their greatest responsibility, cracked down on parents who did not maintain home conditions conducive to the proper raising of the young. Always there was the reform school, or correctional school or industrial school to which youngsters could be committed. The state takes over where the home has failed to bring up the child In the way he should go.

The only way the state can function is through an institution. From time to time disturbing reports have come from these institutions. In our neighboring state of Iowa unfit persons evidently have been employed to exercise authority over the young. -Recently a mutiny broke out in a reformatory Which eventually led to an investigation and employees were charged with manslaughter. Iowa's case is not the only one.

In Missouri a reform institution says the Kansas City Star, has become better known as a "breeding school for The newspaper describes a condition Which may be said to be typical of such institutions: "Because the space is adequate for only about half the number of boyg who use it, there is no way to separate the promising from the nearly hopeless, the 14-year-olds from the 20-year-olds. intelligent from the stupid. Without the facilities, the best of superintendent is blocked. "The Booneville institution is only one symp- ton of a State's failure to accept normal responsibility for the guidance of children who need it. Its lack of policy goes back to the courts, back to the local institutions, back to the parole system or lack of it" Governor Donnelly of Missouri has appointed a commission to make a thorough investigation of the reform school situation.

This, The Star thinks, is an encouraging move, for it will lead to adoption by the legislature of a state policy for giving wayward children the aid they need. The only conclusion is that no quick and easy program to solve the delinquency problem has yet been devised. It is not yet possible for citizens to relax and say that the thing is permanently settled. Rev. Walter Rundin, speaks at the auditorium Wednesday evening on the subject of price control.

He is a preacher with a collection of extra- curricular activities. Some years ago when the volunteer firemen held their state convention here, Rundin was chaplain of the association. He served on the OPA Community Information Panel at Wahoo, and made something of the Job. We had a panel organized here, but it wasn't very active. His message should be worth hearing, Wednesday evening.

OUT OUR WAY The Upper Room The dean of Beatrice bankers, veteran of more years of financial service than any other in the community, a few years ago was exchanging yarns with the Lincoln banker who died last week. The Lincoln man, referred to affectionately by his friends as "Chape," related that ho had come to Beatrice many years ago on nn errand connected with his floral business. were not flush and he was practicing thrift. Came late Afternoon and completion of his business in Beatrice, he paused at Sixth and Court, pondered whether ho would go west on Court to the U. P.

station and wait for the northbound train, or start walking north on Sixth. The train probably would be late; waiting would be Irksome. He struck out walking north and next morning about sunup arrived in Lincoln, having got a lot of fine exercise and having saved $.1.50. The Beatrice man, known to his friends as "Wall," told his story: Many years was in his arrived in Lincoln by train LIKE 1C DON'T MUCH SiTTIIsl BORM THIRTTV YEARS. TOO SOOM Beatrice, Tuesday, Jan.

Omar Bradley la cutting away the jungle of veterans administration red tape. Gen. Paul Hawley's threat to resign as Gen. Bradley's chief medical adviser unless congress laid off its efforts to force the VA to take over army anil navy hospitals was one of the explosions.

I've heard Gen. Bradley hold forth on the VA hospital problem and it's simply that neither he nor his key medical men want to take on the I geographical and structural white elephants which the armed forces built or converted (frequently under congressional pressure) during th. war. Not generally publicized, however, is the fact that Gen, Bradley is doing one of the most thorough jobs of housecleuning- that any government department has undergone in years. Through a military system of unannounced flying inspections of regional offices and hospitals, he's catching much inefficiency and cause for complaint at the source.

Strictly a minor item, but typical of the way the general Is going about things is his order that from now on VA hospitals will be called from noints west.

Which was more than Edith, herself, felt at the moment.

So she liked peace and beauty and quiet too! "And at other last so thought my father and being much alike hoped that "Don't build Ruth." The Japs never caught on. Ruth's underground forces numbered 40,000 or more. In addition, the OSS boys trained 10,000 guer- rillas.

They built airstrips in the jungles, set up weather stations, operated radios, rescued American and British flyers and in general operated one of the best spy and intelligence rings of the whoie Jap war. All this time OSS and "OWI were pumping propaganda into Thailand, telling the natives about the Atlantic Charter and what a bright new world this was going to be, come peace. When peace came, a delegation from the free Thai government was flown to Lord Louis Mount- batten's southeast Asian supreme headquarters at Kandy, Ceylon. The British proposed to move in an army of 20.000 to accept the surrender of 70,000 to 100,000 Jap forces of occupation. That was all right, though the Thais felt they could have done that job themselves.

Also, the Thailanders were willing to make good on damage to any British property. But along with these purely military terms, the British negotiators, led by Maberley E. Dening, British foreign office adviser to Mountbatten, presented a set of economic demands. These demands have never been made public. They were presented as being joint U.

S. and British terms. Actually, U. S. officials in Ceylon and Thailand had never heard of them, as the Thai negotiators discovered session with the president than with Montgomery when he was passing through Washington.

He helped her up on Nancy's broad back and Edith said goodbye, Reeling as forlorn as she had ever felt in her life.
