iix educaiorv arui you trp a s-teady beep Jbeep beep aHt the window" S8P -y rS rS Spells New Middle EDITORIALS Youlh And Crime-Big Problem (By Fred Pool la East Texas Magazine) among youth has always been a problem but even in day juvenile offenders against the law made up a very infinitesimal percentage of the criminal population Even then mosrttif the petty thieves for that waa the extent of most criminal of-fenses were being coached by adult leaders who directed their activities But today it is different With the majority of our crimes being committed by youngsters who should be in school or at work at some honest endeavor we are up against a monster which we as a people have done much to create and too little to eradicate Herman Sapier Superintendent of the Texas State School for Boys at Gatesville said in an interview recently with Felton West of the Houston Post boys wc get here especially from the big cities like Dallas and Houston have very little to learn in the way of crime" When we realize that many of these young criminals could have turned out otherwise if people at the local level cared enough to be concerned it appears that a judge might well recommend sthat the grand jury return an indictment against the citizens themselves Neglect on the part of all of us in the matter of a real parole system in Texas has been a contributing factor to the appalling situation in which we find ourselves But and this is the important thing jt would be doubly tragic if we should fail to act No city or town should put this problem lower than first on its agenda and no club civic organization church or political party should even think this important matter too unsavory for its attention The growing problem of juvenile crime will not be solved ever by moving away from it either phys-- ically or mentally-It is with us in awful formr and it should be tackled with every bit as much zeal and concern as any problem facing us today either locally or nationally It is axiomatic that we cannot remain strong as a torce for good in the world if we decay from within May Be Beginning Of The Eiid For years the West has been looking wishfully for signs of a fatal flaw in the Soviet system a crack in the wall We are grateful for Komsomol Pravda the publication of the Young Communist League for that long-awaited sign of impending dissolution of the Marxist myth Soviet taxi drivers reports the publication have begun to complain that they get no tips (a and inadmissable practice" Komsomol Pravda warned) i Taxi drivers being the opinion-makers they are the tip demand will likely spread to clerks waiters bootblacks and perhaps even to housewives Then will the whole massive structure of the classless society and the monolithic state collapse amid the demands of each group for a 10 per cent tribute from every other group But count on it Age May Be Factor In Wisdom lence For lack of targets the mob had cooled Is help I asked This I confess was my real purpose for calling said Rabb clear the The foregoing episode is all the more surprising because In an earlier article in the series former Mayor Mann tells what he planned at one time in the way of an escort of the Negro children by the federal government through the Arkansas National Guard cordon around the school Mr Mann writes: had in mind the use of United States marshals Looking back on the I am still surprised that the Justice Department did not adopt this approach at the start or even later The extremist agitators would have hesitated to interfere with these local representatives of the federal law and no such outcry would i have arisen as came with the use of federal troops" Mr Mann is right about the use of deputy marshals There were 5000 deputy marshals used In the strike riots in Chicago In 1893 during the administration of President Cleveland The very law which the Department of Justice is citing now in support of the use of federal troops at Little Rock says that they may be used only when obstructions make it impracticable to enforce the laws of the United States in any state by the ordinary course of judicial proceedings" Novel Course Followed The "ordinary was not followed and a court order was enforced instead with federal troops even though a federal law known as the Comitatus' specifically forbids the use of armed forces to enforce court orders The responsibility for maintaining law and order within a state is left by the Federal Constitution to the government The assertion by the mayor of a city that he may disregard the governor of his state and directly request military intervention from the federal government so as to preserve order locally is novel In the Constitutional history of the United States Maybe the foreman of the grand jury in Brooklyn can cite the Little Rock precedent whenever Mayor Wagner and Gov Harri-man disregard his requests for police in the school buildings or if he happen to like their

protecting a state domestic The collaboration between the White House and Mr Mann in preparing the way for federal troops is commented on by the former mayor of Little Rock as follows: read Max Rabb my telegram He and I a couple of mlpor The text of the message sent at 9:15 am by Mr Mann was as follows: immediate need for federal troops is urgent The mob is much larger in numbers at 8:00 am than at any time yesterday People are converging on the scene from all directions Mob is armed and engaged in fisticuffs and other acts of violence Situation out of control and police cannot disperse the mob I am pleading to you as President of the United States to provide the necessary troops within several hours Actiqby you will restore peace and order in compliance with your Help Mr Mann writes

The mayor of New York and the governor seemed reluctant for awhile to put police into the schools but judging by the revelation of what happened at Little Rock just written by former Mayor Woodrow Mann in a series of copyrighted articles in the York Herald Tribune" it necessary to ask the mayor of New York City or the governor of the state for police help Ordinary authority apparently can be bypassed and a direct request can be made to the White House by any official agency of a local nature If the Little Rock precedent is upheld this could mean the immediate dispatch of federal troops to the scene Consult Officials Mr Mann discloses that he did not even consult his own chief of police in Little Rock because the mayor like the chiefs politick views He also was at odds with the Governor of Arkansas Chief Potts did not know that I was in- constant touch with Washington" writes former Mayor Mann of Little Rock He adds that he told Maxwell Rabb presidential assistant in charge of minority questions on Tuesday Sept 24 1957: far as concerned we need action as quickly as possible We need federal Former Mayor Mann says that on the morning of the same day Mr Rabb Told him that he should send telegraphed request for federal because this was necessary clear our The mayor complied and within a couple hours the President issued an executive order sending federal troops to Little Rdfck All the details of the mayor's part in urging the use of federal troops have never before been disclosed They constitute an extraordinary' chapter in the story of federal intervention in Arkansas without the consent of either the THE PAST litical league Venezuela-bound plane and two bombsights for use in attack on Caracus seized in Augusta Ga by FBI Fifteen Years Ago Greatest battle of Pacific believed near stated Secretary of Navy Frank Knox Manpower commission sought law To draft men and women into war industries Twenty Years Ago Rotarians were told of growth by Powers Cleveland and George Manning all of Overton 65 warships 25 French massed for patrol of Mediterranean against submarine piracy of shipping vessels Your every banking need Is served best by your friends at Kilgore National Bank (adv) -4 News that the Navy plans to send up simple form of life in the shape of yeast should cheer those of us who feel badly about the Vanguard fizzle No doubt the yeast will aid in making the missile or satellite In addition to warning signs for the car of the driver who is learning maybe we should have them for the driver who Is The Air Force fires a big Atlas trans-ocean missile Watching It one veteran pilot said wistfully: goes an awful lot of flight Ike says homesick for military life Oh for those old army retreats at instead of all-day retreats with the BARNEY GOOGLE AND SNUFFY SMITH I lines crossing Syrian territory and the Suez Canal There is a hint they can use this position as a club over the West Syrian-EgypTian unity will encounter much difficulty from the lack of a land link The new nation will be a sort of Middle East Pakistan Its east remains separated from its west by a hostile Israel and Arab countries whose governments view Gamel Abdel Nasser and the Syrian military clique with deep suspicion There seems little doubt that FOR TODAY Now thou son of man take' up a lamentation for Tyrus 27:2 Our land is rich and beautiful There is abundance and pushbutton ease for almost every one Have we reached the point of Tyre and said land is perfect beauty we are perfection there is nothing more to You sing a song of lament unless something went wrong Wonder what will be our song of the future?
