Two Views On The Federal Narcotics Law Problem: Ii - Need For An Effective Treatment And Education Program In The Federal Narcotics Law, Howard W. Jordan

Cleveland State Law Review

Our interest in the extent and nature of the narcotics problem stems from our experience as a social worker and probation officer over a number of years in trying to supervise narcotic users on probation. However, our interest was crystallized in 1951 at the increased number of such cases appearing in our court since 1950, and we became genuinely alarmed.

McManus, to study this problem and to conduct a preliminary survey of the problem in the State of Ohio. The study pointed …

The Juarez Stake Academy, Dale M. Valentine

Theses and Dissertations

While the history of the Latter-day Saints who colonized in Mexico is probably not generally known by the majority of Latter-day Saints living throughout the world today, it nevertheless comprises an exceptionally colorful and exciting chapter of the history of Mormonism.

Probably one of the chief concerns of the Mormon Colonists in Mexico was to establish in their society a culture which would be lastingly enduring and which would progressively improve. Secondly, it is also probable that they were passionately desirous of …

Juvenile Delinquency: Approaches And Treatment, Nancy Fischer

Senior Scholar Papers

The Certain Areas In Which Omaha High School Youth Desire Counseling, Mabel B. Carlson

Student Work

Human engineering is a great job. Many individuals fail to do their part in solving such problems as war, crime, and international intrigue because they have the attitude that the part they can play is so minute that their services would have little significance. However, these serious social problems have origin in individual selfishness; in the indifference of an individual to the needs and welfare of others; in jealousies and unfriendliness which individuals evidence in their day-by-day relations to others. People are taught to feel and think about themselves and others; and if our institutions of learning are to make …
