< Sydney, Australia, like many an American community, has been plagued with juvenile crime. Duck-tailed ten-agers, called bod-gte-boys Down Under have wantonly destroyed automobiles, engaged in gang wars, and beaten innocent bystanders. Sydney’s answer takes the form ot a two-pronged ordinance. First, the parents must pay for the damage done by their delinquent offspring| Second, as Robert Ruark vividly phrases it, “A father must, in the presence of a police officer, apply six of the best to sonny boy’s stern — with a police whip, and to the satisfaction of the attending officer." Has Sydney set a precedent that every city and town could profitably follow? - o 0 When one sees and hears politics for a couple of weeks he wonders at the reasons and purposes. A political party's national convention is like the adult life of a May-fly — brief, spectacular and essential to the preservation of the species. The convention exists only to adopt a party platform and to nominate candidates for the Presidency and Vice Presidency of the U. S. While it is in session, it is the supreme organ of the party. But once its job is done, the convention turns over the party reins to the National Committee and dissolves, to reappear four years later. Yet, in its week or so in the sun, the convention does an awesomely complex and important job for the republic. In a country that has long countenanced only two major parties, each party must blend and compromise the dozens of shades of opinion on " scores of national and regional issues — some clear-cut, others vague and tenuous. And each must seek to provide, as its candidates,capable leaders Wo can guide the nation through four years of unforeseeable problems and crisis. A large part of the job, compromise and selection, must be done at the conventions. 34 Presidents, conventions have done their job surprisingly well. —-0 That the pioneer farmer was pelf-sufficient is agreed to by most of us. With help from hiA wife and children he produced most everything needed by his

family. Ho raised little beyond his own needs for markets were tew and inaccessible. He had no debt; his taxes were mere trifles; and he could get along with practically no money. With the advent of canals, roads, and railways, the growth of factories and cities, the farmer ceased to be self-sufficient. He raised as much as he could and even bought more land, the ultimate gains in sale of his products enabled him to buy manufactured goods and machinery. In this way he had become subject to the whims of market prices of the distant market centers. To the usual uncertainties of weather, plant and animal diseases and insect pests — was added a new uncertainty, the question of whether his products would sell for enough to buy the manufacturers needed by his family and farm operations. The farmer has done well to meet tax obligations as well as to raise his standard of living — he is deserving of the greatest tribute that can be paid. 0 0 Now in sight is elimination of a hazard that has caused the death of at least 115 children over the past ten years. Legislation passed during the last ses- • sion of Congress and signed by President Eisenhower requires manufacturers to equip refrigerator doors with safety devices so that they can be opened from the inside. Manufacturers are given 27 months to make the change over and apparently the industry has already taken steps to solve the problem. The result is the magnetic safety door with which many new refrigerators are u&w equipped,. The door Is held close Id" a bfr ’ magnet. There is no latch or other mechanical fastener. The pressure required to open it is such that it can be opened by a child pushing or kicking against it from the inside. All this is to the good, but a word of caution is called for. Some refrigerators not equjppedt duced for more than the next two years, and for a gqod many additional years such refrigerators will continue to be discarded. The owner of such a refrigerator may save the life of a child, perhaps his own, if he makes sure the door or fastener is removed before it leaves his home.

Farm,Labor Issues Are Chief Target. Skillen Plans To Hit Subjects Hard INDIANAPOLIS (UP)’ — State Democratic Chairman Charles Skillen said today his party's Indiana congressional nominees will “hit hard” the party planks on farm and labor issues in the November election campaign. Skillen said candidates who met for a strategy session late Wednesday discussed those issues and other planks in the national platform. Nine of the 11 state congressional nominees attended tbe meeting with Skillen and senatorial candidate Claude Wickard. “Our biggest project here will be the farm program and labor,” Skillen said. Candidates also will emphasise Democratic planks on veterans affairs and small busi-

neee, he said. Skillen claimed the Democratic farm plank promising a return to higta. rigid price supports would" be Star more attractive to Hoosier farmers than the OOP plank endorsing flexible supports. Gerald C. Carmony. Shelbyville. 10th District congressional nominee, said low far mprices during the Republican administration would bg “our big gripe" in efforts to unseat Hoosier Republicans in Congress. The present lineup is nine Republicans and two Democrats. Candidates also discussed campaign problems in their districts. Skillen said one big problem was getting voters registered. Attending the session were John Brademas, South Bend, 3rd District; T. Dean Bechtol, Garrett, 4th District; William C. Whitehead, Anderson, 6th District; John W. King, Greencastle, 6th District; Vernon R. HUI, Coalmont, 7th District; Rep. Winfield K. Denton. Evansville, Bth District; Wilfred J. Ullrich, Aurora, 9th District; Carmony, and John C. Carvey, Indianapolis, 11th District. Absent were Rep. Ray. J. Madden,' Gary, Ist District, and Thurman C. Crook," Logansport, 2nd District.
