Blames Older Girls For J Younger Girls’ Offenses New York, Oct. 4 — (UP)— Respon-* sibillty for the ruin of many young girls who transgress the moral code! may often be put upon older, nuye 1 1 sophisticated girls who first lead them; to question the wisdom or necessity of morality, declares Judge Charles O. Oberwuger of New York City in an article in this week’s Liberty magazine. ‘‘The menace of the mental stamina of the girl ot today is not the hoy of today," Judge Oberwager asserts, “but other, more sophisticated girls. It is the other girl who paves the way for the boy. The girl first Imbibes sophistication from other girls, older in years or experience. Her innate modesty, her inherent sex reticences, make this almost inevitable. Even in this day of free thinking and free doing, the young girl as yet unspoiled would shrink from the advances of a boy were they tinged with the slightest color of what she holds improper. And as yet the word 'improper’ covers a wide field.” o <■ Dynamite Wrecks Candy Factory; Two Men Hurt Wilkesbarre, Pa., Oct. 4.—(INS) — Dynamite plated in the stock room of the Pittston plant ot the WilkesBarre Maid Candy company early today wrecked the structure, injuring two men and damaging six adjoining structures.
