Improvements Noted Twice this week editorial comment has been directed towards the handling of juvenile affairs. A good deal of comment has been made on this. Most of it which has come to the attention of the newspaper has been favorable, at least to the discussion of the question. While the court’s opinion on the matters of allowing the public to know whether cases have been disposed of, or even of informing the school children that their colleagues who err pre being punished, not just released, has not changed, some salutory effects have been noted. First, it is reliably reported that a number of juve- - nile cases have actually been held in the past few days, clearing up some of long standing. Second, at least one case which occurred recenlty is being taken care of in a business-like manner. This is very good news. But better news will come when the courts of this state realize that the people feel very strongly that they have the right to statisical data concerning juvenile courts. People feel, and quite correctly, that justice is thwarted if cases brought before any court are not disposed of promptly, efficiently, and in a matter so that everyone realizes that crime does not pay, and does not go unpunished. ’ Neither this newspaper, nor any reputable newspaper, wishes in any way to harm any child’s reputation by printing his name as a juvenile offender. This should not be done, unless after repeated convictions the court and the newspaper is fully convinced that further protection of the child’s name would only endanger rather than protect that child. But statistical information, on the number of cases, their disposition, seriousness, number of arrests, number of offenders—these things are necessary for the public to know. Only by knowing’these can the effectiveness of general law enforcement be judged by the people, who are responsible for initiating necessary changes in the law.

Republicans Ran To Overhaul Parly Seeking To Reshape Attitude Os Public DES MOINES, lowa (UPD—The Republican National Committee rallied today behind a move to reshape the public attitude toward the GOP with a new declaration of what the party stands for. Party Chairman Meade Alcorn expected to appoint a committee of prominent Republicans within a week or |wo to draft the statement. He hoped it would finish the job within three months. Vice President Richard M. Nixon' was reported to be among those who might be invited to participate. If the project should succeed, Alcorn believed that, it might do more than anything else to solve what he believed to be one of the party’s biggest current problems. Tliis is to persuade voters that the GOP is not a “big business" party. With President Eisenhower's blessing, Alcorn offered the proposal at Thursday’s opening session of a two-day national committee meeting. It was only part of a broad gauged plan to overhaul the party for a comeback from its 1958 defeats. Plan Draws Cheers His entire plan drew a round of cheers with a lone vocal dissent from Mrs. Katharine Kennedy Brown, Ohio national committeewoman and prominent backer of the. late Sen. Robert A. Taft, who lost the 1952 presidential nomination to Eisenhower. Alcorn carefully avoided calling the proposed declaration a new party platform. He said it would offer ‘‘guideposts that would help * the party lead this country into an era of peace, progress and general well-being.” — * ■ ■ ■■ v '

Asked how It would differ from a party platformi he said it would set out long range principles whereas a platform was a campaign document aimed at a specific election. He said he was not prdposing that the GOP write its 1980 platform now. Atom’s other proposals included a GOP - sponsored radio-TV show, a party magazine, a program to recruit an additional two million precinct workers, an enlarged field force ana a plan to screen potential candidates. Cttee Objections Mrs. Brown objected because the plan had not been cleared with Republican congressional leaders and because it was advertised as a “face-lifting ’ job. with obvious reference to the Eastern Republican bloc which had dominated recent GOP conventions, she said there was a group which had been “experimenting” with the party for w long time. She said the party should be stressing unity and a program to bring out stay-at-home voters disgusted with the GOP. The proposal for a new party declaration was intended to satisfy demands which have come from various segments of the party. Such demands have been voiced by Chairman Richard M. Simpson of the Republican Congressional Campaign Committee, Sen. Jacob K. Javits of New York, and Texas National Committeeman H. J. Porter. When Simpson heard Thursday that the President was calling for a statement of party goals, he promptly demanded that the White House itself lay them out. And of the Eisenhower call for year-round campaigning, he said the White House too, should do just that. The sure way to spoil any good thing is to keep it in the first person singular.
