European Stars and Stripes (Newspaper) - February 14, 1969, Darmstadt, Hesse                                Friday february 14, 1969 the stars and stripes Henry j. Taylor shocking failure of juvenile authorities assistant Fri director Thomas Bishop made a speech at fort Lauderdale flo., that Point out the shocking failure by courts correctly institutions and Juve Nile authorities in their Field. Attacking the subject head on expert Bishop stated that the latest Fri figures show half of All 1968 arrests for serious crimes involved persons 18 years old or younger. One Quarter involved those under 15. He revealed that of convicted persons released to the streets on suspended sentences 70 per cent Are rearrested for subsequent crimes. And he warned that this year on of every 50 citizens will be the victim of a crime and one of every 20 juveniles will commit a crime. I was recently in Philadelphia. There because of the violence at sports events for two years two schools have played their annual football game in total secrecy. Incredibly even the players Are not told in Advance the location of the game. They re put secretly aboard a bus that takes them to an unannounced Field to engage in the sport. Sometime ago i was in to Ledo Ohio. There night football had to be abolished altogether. In the nation s capital six High school games have had to be postponed because Washington school officials refused to take responsibility for the physical safety of either the spectators or the players. A game had finally resulted in injuring a person critically by gunfire. Are the rights of troublemakers More important than the sufferers at the great University of Miami near fort Lauderdale Bor rowing the vicious nonsense from the degenerate Zero dimension there s 9uite a Jam up in the courts so his Honor would like you All to take a turn at jury duty while you re awaiting trial group in Japan militant students at Many happenings boast that they can reach the True nature of things through pornography. The impression i got there among this group is that they regard youth itself As an achieve ment something of which they can be proud. They re smart enough to be 21 or under and the rest of us Are dumb enough to be 30 or Over. They seem to have a sense of the entire adult world waiting out there As full of Peculiar heavy Creepy peo ple you just can t Admire or wish Well. They keep talking about  Well i suppose love Means to take responsibility for something outside yourself a person an animal one s univer sity our country and How you measure up to it is Success or failure. These students take responsibility for nothing. That s love since the beginning of time there have always been those who follow a life of Drift and words and they rationalize selfish indolent or cowardly decisions by dressing them in the clothing of a higher cause. The so called new left Spear heading this movement and Well infiltrated by communists has demonstrated a political skill in the employment of organized and articulate pressures capable of blackmailing discrediting and breaking majority Rule and or Derly government. They promote the Black Flag of anarchy and the red Flag of Moscow Mao tse Tung North Vietnam and Castro s Cuba. The tactic is anybody we Don t want to hear nobody s going to  dissenters Are shouted Down or the microphone is wrested from them. Discussion exists Only among those who agree with the new left. They demand that oth ers follow democratic rules which they themselves defy. Their Pur pose is As Clear As that of a Fox in a Hen House. The similarity be tween their methods and those of the communist and nazi minority Goon squads is undeniable. They use the new left traditional Hammer lock technique twist a Little More push a Little More fight a Little More lie a Little More until the resistance can stand it no longer. Yet new York mayor John v. Lindsay himself no less encountering a riot on the Bronx Cam pus of Hunter College stated there is an entirely refreshing attitude of doubt thai Young people Are expressing toward their  then smiling benignly at a student demonstrator in a mini thigh skirt he added she s a living doll that  this sort of thing so obviously helps create the terrible situation or. Bishop described that any one must wonder what on Earth the mayors courts corrective institutions and juvenile authorities so heavily responsible for it think they Are doing to our families our youth and our country. C 1969 United feature Syndicate inc. Fill in Seaway task Force says John p. Roche so Buster is needed Alan Emory the Nixon administration has been handed a shovel and asked to fill in the St. Lawrence sea Way. Midwest congressmen arid senators want the president to throw the shovel away. The shovel is a politically explosive task fore re port that Calls for a virtual Dis mantling of the present Federal Seaway Agency a halt to All Seaway promotion a 20-to-40 per cent toll increase. It argues against building any new sea Way facilities and declares the waterway is bound to lose Busi Ness in the future that no amount of Effort can win Back. The task fore was formed by former transportation Secretary Alan s. Boyd in May to com up with a program that would counter an expected 1969 sea Way legislative package in Coj Gretl it a headed by a tis Jant Secretary m. Cecil Mac key although the report has not Ben mad Public its Cut Nti Hay already created a Wnm lion on Capitol Hill. It hints strongly that ther it no need for a presidential appointed leeway administrator and recommends a new to adv looking into the posit duty of a full Hak up of the Seaway Ope Atlon including turning Thop rating control Over to the coast guard. The report questions the need for thre agencies in the area the army engineers the coast guard and the St. Lawrence sea Way development corporation. It recommends a Fatur Strong hand for the transportation Sec rotary in All policy dealings with or at lakes St. Lawrence Harbor and Channel work. The report gloomily forecasts that Seaway traffic cannot grow by mor than 9.8 per cent by 1980a prediction even mor pessimistic than a special economic study for the task fore by . Management consultants inc., of Washington which put the figure at 11 per cent. The task fore urged no action on building bigger Seaway locks and channels saying All the waterway traffic was captive and growth would a limited. This runs sharply counter to the positions of Midwest senators and outgoing Seaway administrator Joseph h. Mccann who Havar Gued that Biggor facilities would bring in mors away Hutinet. The mock a task Force argues that promotion of Seaway Busi nets works against oth pm the ill of transportation and raise the possibility of Ono port s gain big business at the expense of another. O North american Neap apr Alliance there is still no hard news on who is going to run the state department but i am depressed. At a far wll party for Secretary Rusk i noticed a Largo number of foreign Servic officers purring like contented pussycats and Sev eral observed to a with a frankness i had not noticed Dur ing my Whit House tenure that the Amateur hour was Over. The press too has been full of articles about under Secretary Alexis Johnson the ultimate professional , and the retire ment of Charles Bohlen and new Llyn e. Thompson has triggered All sorts of inspirational essays on the Virtues of the foreign service. In my considered judgment nothing could be mor disastrous than permitting the mandarins of the foreign Servic to formula american foreign policy. I hav immense respect for a number of sos i hav met in my travels and nothing i say Here is in tended to disparage their Dedi cation or their accomplishments. My objections run against the very concept of the foreign serv ice an american imitation of a British 4i corps of administrator which interestingly enough hat just been drastically reorganised. The notion behind the Post ten Servic we that an intelligent gentleman endowed with a Good dast Teal education could handle this it the idea admittedly in caricature but it was based on a Central fallacy that Wisdom can to institutionalized. There Are Brilliant men in the foreign service but there is absolutely non a scary connection Between their brilliance and their train ing which amounts to a pro longed apprenticeship Likely to emasculate All but the most discreetly virile. For roughly 20 years the aspiring so must Inch up the ladder avoiding Contro Versy deferring to those who will write his efficiency reports worrying whether his wife has been sufficiently deferential to the ambassador s wife and above All making sure that he can t have any mistakes blamed on him. This hat resulted in what i Call the Standard crisis Cable. These Quence goes As follows 1 the president Loams from the associated press ticker that ther has been a sudden coup in East Pom Erania. This comes As a bit of a Shock since East Pomerania has not been on the crisis list and has not even made the funny Papen As a called the daily top Cret state Dep atm it sum maty. President inquires gently what in Heji it happening. 2 "flasjt4 Cable gee out to Mem Freoff by Tome Mia noting concern by highest authority Ait Inow rift in formal Ian Guage a that the my it happen ing. 3 Cable Comet in from country team East Pomer Ania paragraph 1 we be Lieve. Para. 2 on the other hand. Para. 3-"yet. Para. 4"none the less. Para. 5"would appreciate your  the most distinctive thing about this Cable is of course that nobody is Ever going to get hanged on the basis of it though in one Case i know of the presi Dent threatened to abolish the embassy and turn its functions Over to the associated press. Every alternative is covered the Odd numbered paragraphs can be used later to justify one position the even numbered ones provide defense against another out come. This is Why the president needs what is known in the Trade As an so Buster Well up in the state department preferably As under Secretary. He can t be an Amateur. Ideally he is someone who has a distinguished record in the system but is not a product of it. Averell Harriman might serve As the Model and i suspect that after a few months of the innocence of under Secretary Richardson and the blandness of under Secretary Johnson president Nixon will be desperately searching for a younger version of that magnificent old pirate.
