"A pansy aaved is a E-rtabliahad 18 M Ml«i a UNITED STATES DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE Federal Bureau of Washington, D. C. TO ALL LAW ENFORCE¬ MENT OFFICIALS: YOUNG THUGS and criminals may be pressing luck by increasing their escapades while blaming for their faults. It appears that the public beginning to gag on the sociological diet of excusing conduct of teenage hoodlums cause “society has failed them. Resort communities racked senseless riots and citizens cannot venture from their without being assaulted and beat¬ en are getting fed up with pam¬ pered and insolent youth gangs. Some courts in the troubled areas are taking a more realistic approach in handling those in¬ volved in these outbreaks. New laws providing stiffer penalties are being enacted in a few places. We can only hope that authorities everywhere will follow this trend. Certainly, the mere desire of young miscreants to have a “blast »» or to “let off steam” is no ex¬ cuse to ravage a community and maim and terrorize its residents. That holiday riots and similar antics by carousing youths have evoked widespread concern is not surprising. It is surprising, how¬ ever, that strong public reaction did not come sooner. For several years increasing volume of crimi¬ nal acts by young people—spurred on by the lenient treatment re¬ ceived — has presented a clear barometric reading of what we are now witnessing. For instance, from 1960 through 1964, the percent¬ age of young age-group arrests for homicide, forcible rape, aggra¬ vated assault, robbery, burglary, larceny, and auto theft more than doubled the population in¬ crease percentage of the same group. Arrests of persons under 18 for simple assault rose 79 per cent, drunkeness and related 1 vio¬ lations 52 percent, disorderly con¬ duct 18 percent, and concealed weapons 17 percent during the same 5 years. In the light of this shameful picture, we cannot say that we were not forewarned. The immediate objective, of course, is to put a stop to these rumbles and mass vandalism. Meanwhile, the question puzzling most people is what caused the principles and morals of some of our youth to degenerate to near animal level. Recognizing the prob¬ lem comes much easier than its solution. However, of all the fac¬ tors involved, I am convinced one of the most damaging is the false teaching which tends to blame so¬ ciety for all the frustrations, woes, and inconveniences, real or imagin¬ ary, visted upon our young people. Teenagers, and their parents, have been subjected to a foolhardy theory which condones rebellious conduct against authority, law and order, or any regulatory measures which restrict their whims, wish¬ es, desires and activities. This as¬ tonishing belief has spread into the schoolroom, the living room, the courtroom, and now into the streets of our Nation in the form of wild, drunken brawls. Nd doubt, society has failed our youth, but not in the way many seem to think. Rather, the dereliction has been in the fail¬ ure to teach them the meaning- of discipline, restraint, self-respect, and respect for law aad order and the rights of others. Conse¬ quently, the lesson now is both painful and costly, J.

The Act also permits rural hous¬ ing loans to be made in rural com¬ munities with population not in ex¬ cess of 5,500 and authorizes up to $50 million in grants for housing for domestic farm labor during the next 4 years. The Act continues the authoriz¬ ation to make direct loans at 4% to individual senior citizens for rural housing and to low-income families for minor repairs needed to make their homes safe and sani¬ tary and to make direct loans at 3% interest to rural families whose buildings have been de¬ stroyed or damaged by natural disasters. The interest rates on loans made to non-profit groups for senior cit¬ izens rental housing is effective immediately. The other provisions will be¬ come effective as soon as fund* are made available. Under the insured loan program the Farmers Home Administration will make rural housing loans from funds provided by private investors with payment guaranteed by the Government. Previously such loans were made from funds borrowed from the U.S. Treasury. In addition loans can be insured each year for families with income above the moderate level. These facilities would pay interest at 5% per cent Loans for the purchase of pre¬ viously occupied dwellings and building sites in the past were available only to rural people 62 years of age or older. The interest rate on loans for non-profit groups for rental hous¬ ing for senior citizens was 3%% during the 3965 fiscal year. Previously loans had been made in rural communities having up to 2,500 population, As with all loans made or in¬ sured by the Farmers Home Ad¬ ministration applicants are eligi¬ ble only when they are unable to obtain credit ait reasonable rate* and terms from other sources.
