IN NEW BERN TODAY
Although the great majority of
our New Bern High school students
are never guilty of lawlessness, all
of us suffer criticism when local
teen-ager‘s da wrong.
Any young person who thinks
it is smart to break the law, and
figures on getting away with it,
.should read these words by the
head of the FBI, J. Edgar Hoover.
“A valuable ally in the fight
against crime, the news media of
the nation can afford further pub
lic service in focusing the spotlight
of public opinion on those mem
bers of the judiciary who, in the
face of the present crisis, persist
in endangering the public by un
leashing young terrorists appre
hended at great risk by law en
forcement officers.
“Parents who, through bad ex
ample, indifference, or lust for
worldly gain, inflict upon their
fellow men the scourge of vicious
offspring deserve to feel the sting
of public indignation and to face
legal and financial responsibility
for the criminal acts of their chil
dren.
“At this time, when the increase
in youthful crimes constitutes the
bulk of the shameful rise in our
national crime, serious considera
tion should be given to towering
the age distinction between a ju
venile and an adult violator. We
are dealing with vicious young
criminals, and they should be
treated as such.
“The prevention of juvenile de
struction lies in the establishment
I of juvenile discipline. Assuredly,
j this is the responsibility of every
; individual interested in his own
' safety and the welfare of his coun
try.”
These are words that not only
our students but parents of stu
dents should seriously consider.
All of us, as teenagers, feel quite
often that our mothers and fathers
are too strict. However, it is true
that juvenile crime often origi
nates in homes where there isn’t
enough discipline.
When our parents have faith in
us, and give us privileges, we owe
it to them to justify this faith.

This year we’ll all counting on a
brighter situation. There’s nothing
wrong with balloon displays, if the
quality isn’t lacking. America’s big
gest Christmas parades utilize
them, and find the inflated figures
a spectacular success.
So borrow a little of the faith
your youngster has, and join him
in the e.xcitement and expectancy
that has had him jumping out of^
his skin all day. Santa Claus is
