Monday, January 29, The Civil the far nort law which phantom $150,000 to hand the JUVENILE DELINQUEN The curbing of juvenile delinquency is becoming a more and more serious problem not alone in Juneau but in nearly every sizeable community in Alaska. The number of juvenile cases that law officers | gnirt, who was secretary of the Palmer Airport Assc and the courts have had to deal with in recent months leads one to think in terms of crime waves.

No. 1 is that the President has partially abdicated to Eisenhower the national leadership in regard to European policy. It will be up to Ike to sell Congress and the na- tion on sending U. S. troops to Eu- rope at a time when isolationism is growing and when thousands of mothers do not at all relish seeing their sons leave home. No. 2 is the fact that Eisenhower though trained as a milittary man, has now become a political figure. Furthermore, Eisenhower’s politi- cal development is bound to accel- erate for his job of welding dif- ferent nationalities into a smooth- working military machine is much more political than military. For some time, Ike's critics—and he has some—have harpei on his political proclivities. Long ago, (Imyl claim, Ike learned that the pen is mightier than the sword. It was Major Isenhower, they recall, wrote General MacArtl fare- well message to the Army when Mac retired as chief of staff—one of the most appealing documents ever issued by a chief of staff. Political General Ang though they criticize Tke for having been a political general dur ing the invasion of Europe, it must be remembered that one of his jobs was to smooth the ruffled feathers of General Giraud, get the cooperation of the difficult General De Gaulle, tone down the passicr for publicity of Field, Marshal Montgomery and weld the hetero- gen tically minded armies of Europe One b that griped some Am- ericans, for iustence, der that there was to be no crit- icism of the British during and af- ter the D-Day invasl of Nor- mandy. He also placed a British of- ficer alongside each American of- ficer in key jobs where coopera- tion was essential, This may have slowed military movements at times but it built Allied harmony—which was all-important.
