Excerpt from Juvenile Delinquency: Hearing Before the Subcommittee to of the Committee on the Judiciary, United States Senate, Eighty-Third Congress, Second Session, Pursuant to S. Res; 89, Investigate Juvenile Delinquency in the United States, September 17, 1954 The subcommittee met at 9:30 a.m., pursuant to notice, in room 412, United States Courthouse, El Paso, Tex., Senator William Langer, chairman of the Committee of the Judiciary, presiding. Present: Senator Langer. Also present: Hon. Morgan Ford, judge. United States Court of Customs; James Bobo, assistant counsel; Harold Strong, social-service consultant, and Thomas Sullivan, investigator. Chairman Langer. The hearing will come to order. Mr. Bobo, will you make the opening statement. Mr. Bobo. As you know, the Senate Subcommittee To Investigate Juvenile Delinquency has been holding hearings throughout the country, having so far held hearings in Washington, D.C., Boston, Mass., Philadelphia, Pa., and Denver, Colo. We have been exploring some of the problems that might be causing the increase in delinquency that we have been having around the country. We noticed in the last few years that there has been a terrible increase in the incidence of delinquency, in 1953 some 40 percent over 1948. Our purpose is not to come into a place in the sense of criticism of the local officials. We are trying to get a proper perspective of what the delinquency might be in every section of the country. We are also interested in finding levels where Federal legislation might be enacted, where the Federal Government might help the local communities and States to fight the problems of delinquency. For that reason we are in El Paso this morning, to inquire into some of the problems you are confronted with, seeking to determine with which problems the Federal Government could help you. It is a real pleasure for the subcommittee to be here. The city has been most cooperative; everyone we have talked to has shown a genuine interest in the problems of delinquency. Chairman Langer. I want to make it plain it is no reflection on any of the public officials here that we are here. Mr. Bobo. That is correct. We had hoped this morning to have Mayor Hervey appear first, but I think we all know the reason for his not being here, as he is out of the city.
