Urges Use of Strap to Nip Juvenile Delinquency in Its Early Stages. The Bronx was stirred to-day by | Magistr Max Levine's assertion in Morrisania Court that “there ap- te pears to be a genuine baby crime wave in the Bronx,” to which he Jater added the comment: “I think the mothers are most to blame. The case which evoked Magistrate Levine's outburst of indignation was one against Sidney Seigel, sixteen yeurs old, of No, 764 East 152d Street; Abraham Stonders, thirteen, and Michacl Freidman, eleven, next door neighbors of Seigel. These three boys were chargg@#@with a bold daylight hold-up of Mrs, Amelia Bloch of No. 983 Beck Street, whose pocketbook, containing $31.65, was snatched from her hand as she stood on the street talking with another woman. “A certain type of modern mother,” Magistrate Levine gaid, “seems to think more of gadding about, gossip- ing with neighbors and attending cheap motion picture shows than of raising boys and gtrls in the way they should go. It is the mothers of this type who are the real criminals in eases of this sort.” Detectives Herman Meyer and Mi- chacl Hezney of the Simpson Street Police Station, following that three boys had been seen di roll of bills In a yacant lot, Keigel, Stonders and Friedman. Seigel was held in $1,000 bail for further ex- amination to-morrow, while the other two were turned over to the Children's fociety and will be examined later in the week in Juvenile Court. “The combination of cheap motion | pictures and negligent mothers : produced a condition of Wild W crime here in the Bronx hich ean | be curbed best if women will use the strap on their w rd sons at the first signs of ous dereliction,” eaid Magtstrate Levine. ‘In the last two weeks I have been impressed by the number of cases uf small children caught in the commission of crimes. It looks as if we are having a baby crime wave. “The fault seems to be with the mothers. The fathers, having to pro- vide the living for the family, must necessarily be away from home, and the children are in the hands of the women, If mothers pay more atten- fion to vapid amusement than they do to the well being of their children it is not to be wondered at that the yeungster’s go ast “When I was a boy ‘on the east side the place had a bad reputation, but there were no children commit: | ting crimes in those days. Our moth- ers knew how and when to use the cat o' nine tails, and we all had to a ti eccount for our time and our move- ments. In other words, family life was real. There were no yellow movies and cheap pool rooms for boys then, and there should be none now.” PATHE EXCHANGE BUYS PARIS CO.
