Youth Crime
Rises, Local
Group Says
By JOEL BERGER
Unstable, unsatisfactory home
life coupled with sub-standard hous-
ing conditions and low family in-
come were named as two of eight
principal causes of local juvenile
delinquency in a report issued re-
cently by the Ann Arbor Citizens'
Council.
Submitted by the group's outgo-
ing president, Prof. Samuel Estep
of the law school, the report stated
that crimes committed by juveniles
today are of a more violent and
mass-destructive character than in
the past and that the numberof
juvenile crimes locally is both size-
able and growing.
Juvenile Repeaters
Of nearly 900 crimes committed
by. juveniles in Ann Arbor last
year, half of the law-breakers were
found to be repeaters. According
to the group's report, a continua-
tion of present rates of increase
will see from 1200 to 1300 youths
possibly apprehended for law vio-
lations in 1960.
Race conflicts, sometimes a
source of juvenile problems, do
not appear to occur in Ann Arbor,
the report continued. Instead, in-
ability to find worthwhile jobs,
pressure by the youth's contem-
poraries to conform to their ideas
and actions, along with the relaxa-
tion of other important social pres-
sures for his conformity to tradi-
tional ethical behavior were cited
as causes of local delinquency.
Both preventive and remedial ac-
tion in the field of juvenile delin-
quency was urged by the council.
As one of the main agencies for
acconplishing these ends the po-
lice department, according to the
report, needs "some type of juve-
nile bureau to handle delinquents."
Need Local Support
During the past year, a police-
woman and one man from the po-
lice force have been given speci-
fic responsibility for all juvenile
work. The report said, however,
that these people should receive
support from local groups such as
service clubs "in working with in-
cipient delinquents.."
"Big-brother programs, which
have proved successful elsewhere,
could be launched by these
groups," the report continued.
Prof. Estep's report said that
"our major recommendation is
that a separate juvenile court be
established. The probate court
needs more professional, qualified
staff members to handle the slow
and complex process of rehabili-
tating the delinquent youth and his
family."
Inadequate Facilities
Present juvenile-detention facili-
ties now available are "utterly in-
adequate," the report asserted.
In his paper, Prof. Estep said
that the council should "work for
a continuation and perhaps an in-
crease of staff of the visiting-
teacher program, along with more
teacher-training in detecting signs
of potentiallydserious maladjust-
ment in a child."
Other suggestions the report
made were an increase in special
aid for mentally and emotionally
retarded child along with more
help from a clinical psychologist in
dealing with the most serious
cases.
Continuing, the report made the
suggestion that courses in moral
values and pre-marriage instruc-
tion, emphasizing the need for
knowledge, patience and maturity,
in marriage be considered.

County Court House: Before and During

IU

DAILY OFFICIAL BULLETIN

ii

'

-Daily-Don Campbell

-Daily-Dick Gaskill

PRESENTLY ABOUT 65 per cent
completed, the new Washtenaw
County courthouse at the corner of
Huron and Main will probably be
finished before June 30, 1955, Wil-
liam R. Kelley, County Board of
Supervisors' courthouse - building
committtee chairman, said yester-
day.
Kelley pointed out that the struc-
ture, originally budgeted for $2,-
682,000, will house four county of-

fices not in the present courthouse
building. These offices-the Bureau
of Social Aid, the Welfare Bureau,
the county health department and
the county prosecutor's office -
are now in various buildings in
Ann Arbor.
Three sides of the modern court-
house are being built around its
predecessor, which will be razed
after equipment there has been
transferred to the new structure.
After the razing, a surface parking

lot accommodating 74 cars will
be built on the old courthouse site,
Kelley said. It is possible that in
the future an underground parking
lot may also be built beneath the
old courthouse, he continued. How-
ever, the Board of Supervisors
has not yet decided whether this
will be done.
Constructed of steel, Bedford
limestone and Minnesota granite,
the new courthouse will be head-

quarters for about 200 county offi-
cials and personnel when complet-
ed. Four court rooms with trans-
lucent windows will be in the com-
pleted building, Kelley said. Two
of the rooms will be for circuit
court sessions, while there will be
one probate and one juvenile court-
room.
Two bas reliefs on the Huron St.
side of the building were designed
by Carleton W. Angell of Univer-
sity Museums.

Court Rule
Rebuffs Ike
WASHINGTON (B - The Eisen-
hower administration yesterday
lost its fight for a Supreme Court
ruling that the President has broad
powers to remove federal jobs from
Civil Service classifications and
make the holders subject to sum-
mary firing.
Atty. Gen. Brownell had asked
the high tribunal to review and
overturn a Court of Appeals deci-
sion here holding that the White
House lacks such authority.
'Places Limitation'
"Palpably," Brownell said in his
appeal, "the decision has a signi-
ficance which goes far beyond the
particular facts . .. It places a
broad limitation upon the capacity
of the chief executive to manage
the federal establishment in the
manner which he believes will best
promote effective administration."
The government worker specifi-
cally is Leo A. Roth, a Justice De-
partment lawyer who was fired
from his $10,800-a-year job on July
31, 1953.
The Appeals Court ordered Roth
reinstated, but this was not done
pending the outcome of Brownell's
appeal.
No Comment
There was no immediate com-
ment from the Justice Department
on its next move. Roth is entitled
under the Appeals Court decision-
which the Supreme Court Monday
left in effect-to back pay from
the date of his dismissal, less any
money he may have earned in pri-
vate employment.
The issue involved in the appeal
was whether the President may
reclassify jobs from the classified,
or protected, status to the non-
classified, or unprotected, status.
This was done in the case of Roth,
whose job was reclassified to the
unprotected status by an executive
order.
350 Grid Ducats
Resold by Union
Three-hundred fifty football tick-
ets-a record number-were resold
Saturday through the Michigan Un-
ion football ticket resale service,
according to Mark Gallon, '55.
The service will continue to op-
erate for the remaining home
games, Gallon said yesterday.
Tickets may be turned in any day
from 3 to 5 p.m. at the Union stu-
dent offices and will be resold at
regular prices starting at 9:45 a.m.
Saturday. No student tickets may
be sold through the service.
