[John Henry Smith]
I met with the Religion Class board. Elder Henry Peterson said he had visited the Juvenile Court and the Records showed that in the past 6 months 83 girls and 742 boys have been before that Court for Various Crimes, largely violations of the Curfew law. That about seventy five percent were the children of the L.D. Saints.
