A PROCLAMATION

WHEREAS the youth of this Nation is its most precious asset and best hope for the future; and WHEREAS the incidence of juvenile delinquency is a reflection of the failure of our society to afford to all of its young people a full measure of protection and opportunity for health and happiness, and to inculcate in them a sense of the true values of life and citizenship; and WHEREAS in November 1946 many important agencies, governmental and private, national and local, and individu als the country over, banded together, at th call of the Attorney General of the United States, in a National Conference on Prevention and Control of Juvenile Delinquency, to study and make recom mendations for immediate action in every State and community for the solu tion Of jvenile delinquency problems;
and WHEREAS this National Conference has now made available for use by indi viduals and organizations throughout the Nation, certain Action Reports, which are the-best available tools for the preven tion and control of juvenile delinquency, and has urged upon the States and com munities immediate action with respect to the recommendations in those Reports, and, in particular, the holding of State and community conferences, developed on the general pattern of the National Conference on Prevention and Control of Juvenile Delinquency; and WHEREAS the prevention and control of juvenile delinquency, to be effective, must be pursued primarily in the States and communities where daily contacts are maintained with the children them selves:
NOW, THEREFORE, I, HARRY S.
TRUMAN, President of the United States of America, dp hereby call upon the peo ple of the United States, in their homes and churches, in the schools and hos
pitals, in social welfare and health agen cies, in enforcement agencies and courts, in institutions for the care of. delinquent juveniles, afid in their minds and hearts, to act, individually and together,, for the prevention and control of juvenile de linquency, so that our children and youth may fulfill their promise and become ef fective citizens in our Nation. I further urge them, as the most direct means to this end, to respond promptly to the call of the National Conference on Prevention and Control of juvenile Delinquency by carefully preparing for, and holding, wherever possible during the month of April 1948, State and community confer ences, developed on the general pattern of the National Conference, and at these conferences, or otherwise, to study State and local conditions in the light of the recommendations of the National Con ference; to put into immediate effect such of the recommendations as are pertinent to State and local conditions; to develop firm foundations for continuing com munity action; and to take such other action as may be useful in-solving this vital youth problem and in developing the genuine opportunities for useful living to which our young people are entitled. I
urge this to the end that in no part of the Nation shall action be omitted which is practical and useful in reaching the ob jectives of the National Conference in the prevention and control of juvenile de linquency in this Nation.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have here unto set my hand and caused the seal of the United States of America to be affixed.
DONE at the City of Washington this 27th day of January in the year of our Lord nineteen hundred and se a l forty-eight, and of the Inde pendence of the United States of America the one hundred and seventysecond.
