19-YEAR-OLDS TOP

CRINE'S AGE GROUPS

WASHINGTON, Feb. 12 (U. P.).— The 19-year-olds of the nation led all other age groups in crime for the third consecutive year. Federal Bureau of Investigation reports for 1941 showed today. FBI Director J. Edgar Hoover said: “Perhaps no single crime problem is so menacing as that of juvenile delinquency.” The persons under 21 charged with murder during 1941 numbered 864, while 4011 were arrested for robbery and 8100 for auto theft. Arrests for these offenses during

{1940 were: Murder, 79%; robbery,

3813, and auto theft, 7117,

NEW MAGAZINE

Liberal Press Editor Raps ‘Galilean’ for Attack on U. S. Leaders.

Silver Shirter William Dudley Pelley has substituted a new weekly for his Noblesville-published

“Roll Call.” He calls it “The Galilean Magazine,” printed ' artistically on soft, cream-colored paper. The magazine lists its “address” as an Indianapolis post-office box but the Fellowship Press, Inc. the publishers, are not anxious to meet their subscribers. In fact they urge subscribers to “not send registered mail matter requiring personal receipt by individuals.” Already Under Fire

Although “The Galilean” is less than two months old, the liberal press already has criticized it outspokenly, “The Hour,” edited by Albert E. Kahn, calls Pelley a Nazi hireling and describes his magazine as “treasonable propaganda.” “The Hour” for Jan. 17 quotes one issue of the Pelley magazine thus: « _ . We envision the Mikado remarking to the White House spokesman: ‘So Honorable Hyde-Parker wishes honorable boom-boom, eh? Very pleased to accommodate.” And before his envoys had finished their bowing, 12 to 15 of America’s finest ships of the line were kicking their propellers shamefully in the air, the Pearl Harbor flying field looked like an abandoned WPA project in Keokuk, and Gen. MacArthur found himself isolated in an acreage of Philippine shore, wondering how he was going to stave off two million Oriental China-War veterans with 40 squirrel rifles and a trunk of White House manuscripts.”

Call Attacks Venomous

“The Hour” described the attacks on the Roosevelt Administration as “particularly venomous.” “As a loyal servant of the Axis,” charges “The Hour,” “and a traitor to the United States, William Dudley Pelley has redoubled his efforts to stir up animosity against the leadership of this country and to promote dissension among the American people.” “The Galilean” is a 16-page publication with no advertising other than that of the Fellowship Press. One of the latter's ads concerns Pelley’s autobiography, “Door to

Revelation,” and contains a pencil

sketch of the Silver Shirt leader.

Human Bat Joins U. S. Paratroops

DALLAS, Tex. Feb. 12 (U. P.). —From now on the “human bat” will do all his swooping from a U. S. Army plane, Elmo Bannister, 31, Terrell, Tex., veteran carnival parachutist whose thrill specialty calls for “flying” most of the wayy to the ground with the aid of bat-like wings, was accepted by the Army parachute corps yestreday. Private Bannister, who would dispense with parachutes altogether, “if it weren't for the last 250 feet,” was ordered to Ft. Benning, Ga., to train with the paratroops. The Army waived the maximum age limit of 30 years because of his experience.

BOARD TO RULE ON

DUMPING PERMITS

The two-year-old fight of South Side residents to rid their neighborhood of dumping grounds may be climaxed at City Hall tomorrow. The Works Board will conduct a hearing at 10 a. m. to determine if permits held by operators of dumping grounds at Regent St. and Bluff Road and in the vicinity of W. Minnesota St. and the railroad tracks should be revoked. If it permits any of them to be operated as dumps, the Board may appoint an inspector to enforce regulations. The law prohibits the dumping of
