Walker, Chair- j man of the County ASC Committee. ! Farmers wiil note that there is a 1 eduction from their crop allotment allot-ment in previous years. This is duo to the fact that increased yields make it . necessary to plant less acres to supply the demand made on the wheat industry. The decrease de-crease will be about 3.4 nationally, nation-ally, which reflects the same reduction re-duction in MiUard County.

SERVING Volume 56 Number 11 7 1 own vawno&t r By INEZ RIDING "Young thugs and teenage criminals crim-inals may be pressing their luck by -increasing their violent escapades esca-pades whi'e blaming society for their faults", says J. Edgar Hoover in the Sept. 1965 FBI Law Enforcement Enforce-ment Bulletin. His article continues "It appears that the public is beginning to gag on the steady sociological diet of excusing the conduct of teenage hoodlums because 'society has failed fail-ed them'." Resort communities racked by senseless riots and citizens citi-zens who cannot venture from their homes without being assaulted and beaten are, getting fed up with pampered and insolent youth gangs. I Some courts in the troubled a-reas a-reas are taking a more realistic approach in handling those involved involv-ed in these outbreaks. New laws providing stiffer penalties are being be-ing enacted in a few places. Certainly, Cer-tainly, the mere desire of young miscreants to have a "blast" or to "let off steam" is no excuse to ravage a community and to maim and terrorize its residents." Mr. Hoover says that it is surprising sur-prising that strong public reaction did not come sooner. For several years, the increaseing volume of criminal acts by young people SPURRED ON BY THE LENIENT TREATMENT RECEIVED has presented pre-sented a clear barometric reading of what we are now witnessing. He goes on to say that the percentage per-centage of young age-group arrests ar-rests for homicide, forcible rape, aggravated assualt, robbery, burglary, bur-glary, lerceny and auto theft more than doubled the population increase in-crease percentage of the same age group between the years 1960 and 1964. The question puzzling most people peo-ple is what caused, the principles and morals of some of our youth to degenerate to near animal level. Mr. Hoover is convinced that one of the most damaging is the false teaching which tends to blame society so-ciety for all the frustrations, woes, and inconveniences, real or imaginary, imag-inary, visited upon 'our young people. peo-ple.

I reckon there's been one area which I disagree with his administration. ad-ministration. And I feel right badly about that but disagreed I did. I probably would again. Anyway, Ned, I think you've been a good mayor. One of the best things that has happened during Ned's administration administra-tion is the proper observance of the Fourth of July in Delta. The first time Ned and I talked about a celebration cel-ebration we were standing in three or four inches of snow. Richard Long was stLl teaching at D H S and was serving on the City Council Coun-cil at the time, also. He, too, was in favor of a big Celebration for the Fourth. I hope that the new mayor, whomever he may be, will continue the annual observance that began four years ago. Mayor Church will probably throttle me when this paper "hits the street".. He doesn't blow his own whistle and doesn't like it when someone else does. We've heard a few names tossed around as likely candidates for the office of Mayor of our fair city. We haven't heard any names for council. Maybe things are humming hum-ming 'neath the surface. We'll probably be getting information infor-mation soon, as the deadline for filing is not in the too distant future. fu-ture.
