Police Chiefs Endorse
Youth Employment Act
Police Chief Robert Oliver was
informed by U.S. Sen. Hubert
Humphrey that hundreds of police
chiefs throughout the nation have
endorsed President Kennedy’s
Youth Employment Act.
The chief said: “The need for
this legislation is based upon the
undeniable fact that unless the
government adapts job-creating
measures such as the Youth Em
ployment Act, there will be an un
precedented rise in youth em
ployment as the ‘60s progress, be
cause of an explosive rise in the
number of young people entering
the work force.
“A new Labor Department re
port on the nation’s young work
ers notes that over the next three
years, 5.5 million youngsters, most
of them 18 and 19 year olds, will
be looking for their first full-time
jobs. As many as 2 million of these
will not have graduated from high
school. Among the 2 million drop
outs. the unemployment rate will
be much higher — a socially disas
trous 25 per cent. Worse still, un
less the drop outs somehow re
ceive additional training, their
chances of ever landing a decent
paying job will almost be nil.
"Police chiefs realize that un
less job opportunities are provided
for our youth that delinquency,
crime and violence will increase.
The consequences could be explo
sive.
“The Youth Employ men t and
Conservation Bill was passed by
the Senate is expected to go before
the House in the near future. The
primary purpose of this Youth
Employment legislation is ‘to pro
vide work and training for youths
from the age of 16 through 21.’
“The need for this new youth
program is now because if these
youngsters reach a gateway of
life’s most important years and
find job opportunities closed, many
of them will fall into delinquency.”
SANDY SNYDER VISITS HERE
Sandy Snyder, who for many
years was associated with the
North Star Bakery and who has
been living in the Fairbanks area,
is here for a visit. For the past

Magistrate's Court
On drunk charges Carrie Beal
is serving ten days and Roy See
gock is serving five days in the
local jail.
One of the best ways to show
kindness to an older person is
merely to sit and listen to him
reminisce now and then. Psychia
trists say that one of the greatest
needs of the aged is to have an
audience for their memories.

NICE WORK IF YOU CAN GET IT, especially when the mer
cury soars in the 90’s. A Kansas City, Mo., manufacturer of a
de-icing compound chose the hottest day of the summer to
send out individual snowballs—that’s right, snowballs!—as a
reminder to customers that winter is less than 90 days away.
Air Express shipments went to cities throughout the U.S. and
Alaska (where they’re having their own summer heat-wave).
Snowballs were real, but arrived intact due to insulated boxes
and overnight Air Express delivery.
