* 1940 I tjHiiiiiii imnin ?n ‘ ,i 1942 \ I gjjHHiffl jmiiii i<- ; tl(lnter Rwesrfh EXTENT of increase in juvenile “ delinquency is made bluntly realistic in this chart, based on lat* est government reports. A 38 per cent increase over 1940 statistics was checked against girls and 11.3 per cent against boys. Thus, as the chart shows, where there were thrdb girl delinquents in 1940 there were four in 1942 and twenty boys instead of eighteen. Their cases ranged from routine disorderly behavior to a serious rise in commercialized vice. Another grave report came from J. Edgar Hoover when, some months ago, he showed that arrests of girls under 21 had risen 55.7 since 1941. The government survey was based on a study of 83 courts in areas of 100,000 population or more.

But, on the disappointing side of the ledger, the railroad reports that dry weather has hindered planting of 1944 wheat to such an extent that five southwestern stales will be unable to meet thtir crop goal* next year. Sant* Fn says drought Is expected to limit 1944 wheat acreage fn Kansaa to 12.000.000 seres —instead of the 14,000,000-acre goal. Moisture still is inadequate for bumper wheat production in Oklahoma, Texas, Colorado and New Mexico. The Santa Fe’s survey shows that sugar beet production has been below normal in Colorado and peanut production disappointing in Oklahoma and Toxa*. On the other hand. Arlxona hn* a record yield of citrus fruits, and the sorghum crop is good In Texas.
