The Fifth Commandment - Roderick C Meredith - June 1960

Roderick C Meredith

WHY so much juvenile delinquency? WHY so much disrespect for all law and constituted authority? The true answer is found in this fifth installment of a series expounding God's Ten Commandments. YOUTHFUL violence and insolence characterize the age in which we live. Broken homes are increasing. Teen-age crime IS literally skyrocketing! Senator Thomas C. Hennings, Jr., chairman of a Senate subcommittee to investigate juvenile delinquency, recently stated: "Although our child population has increased only 25 per cent from 1948 to 1957, appearances before juvenile courts have increased almost 150 per cent in the same period. This is a shocking situation." - Information Supplied By: Herbert W Armstrong Library
