Drive For New YMCA Building Fund Judge Raymond Thompson, Superior Court Judge, long a friend of the YMCA, lent his support to the current $35,000 building fund drive.

About the drive Judge Thompson said, "This building development campaign for the North Orange County YMCA is certainly for service to increasing numbers not premature. The opportunities of young people far exceed present facilities. "The Christian emphasis which is basic in a good YMCA program is certainly needed today. "Financial help to provide more effective "Y" leadership for our youth is a sound investment in improved citizenship. The above statements by Judge Thompson were made to Glenn W. Lewis, president of the North Orange County YMCA.

California Crime Trend Takes Decline, Criminal Statistical Survey Reports Several activities in California downward dip in 1959 with a cent decrease from the statistics, reported Attorney Stanley Mosk today. The first time in five years, California crime trend has distinct decrease," stated representing statistics com- mitted by the Bureau of Criminal Investigation of the State Department. Although this reduction in rate approximately 5 per cent, it is a two-year period that reflected a leveling off rates. This is a marked difference from the crime trends ex-pior to 1957, which had increased rates each year. Juvenile delinquency' pic-also shown a similar lev- tern over the last three the slight reduction expe-this year and the gener- able' crime situation as during the last three years result of many factors. Without doubt, the high level of competence achieved by all agencies involved in the administration of criminal justice in California is one of these factors." The crime reports, complaint filings, arrests and prosecutions were measured against a Depart- ment of Finance estimate of 15,-280,000 State population in 1959. This population figure indicates a 528,000 increase over 1958, or a 3.57 per cent population increase. San Francisco City and County had the best record with felony crimes reported being down 14.4 per cent, while arrests were up 8.9 per cent; complaints filed up 7.1 and superior court prosecutions up 7.4. A base of 100,000 population is used for the criminal statis-tics estimates to determine area statistics as well as over-all comparison on a per capita basis. The felony crimes reported totaled 202,923 in 1959, a drop from 1958's 208,292. A comparison with the 1954 statis-tics still discloses a 24.5 per cent increase over the five-year period. Crime rates kept climbing for five years, leveling off in 1958 and now showing a decline for the first time. In all categories, except grand theft and aggravated assault, which were up 1.5 and 0.2 per cent stopped by burglary with 108,002 reports, over 50 per cent of all crimes reported but dropped 6.4 per cent from the previous year. In the category of arrests, the Bureau of Criminal Statistics reports 80,661 persons 18 years or over were arrested in 1959. This is a reduction of 1,000 from 1958, or a decrease in arrest rate per 100,000 population of 4.7. Arrests were as follows: Homicide 888. There were two more homicide arrests in California in 1959 over 1958, but due to population increases, the rate was 3.3 per cent below 1958. Narcotics offenses 12,145, increase of 12.3 per cent. This is an increase of 1,705 narcotic arrests over 1958.
