Tho Uronx was stirred to-day by Magistrate Max Lcvlno's assertion in Morrlaania Court that "there ap pears to bo a gonulno baby crime wavo In tho IJronx," to which lio later added tho comment: "I think tho mothers nro most to blame." Tho caso which evoked Magistrate Lcvlno's outburst of indignation was ono against Sldnoy Selgel, sixteen years old, of No, 784 East 152d Stroet; Abraham Stonders, thirteen, nnd Michael Frcldman, eleven, next door neighbors ot Selgel. Theso three boys urere chargalvltli a bold daylight hold-up of Mrs. Amelia Bloch of No. 783 Bock Street, whoso pocketbook, containing $31.05, was snatched from hor hand as she stood on the street talking with another woman. "A certain typo of modern mother," Magistrate Levino said, "seems to think moro of gadding about, gossip ing with neighbors and attending cheap motion picture shows than ot raising boys and girls in tho way they should go. It Is tho mothers of this typo who aro tho real criminals In cases of this sort." Detectives Herman Meyer and Mi chael llezney of the Simpson Street Polico Station, following a tip that three boys had been seen dividing a roll of bills in a vacant lot, arrested Kcigel, Stomlers and Friedman. Selgel was held in $1,000 ball for further ex amination to-morrow, while tho other two were turned over to tho Children's Society and will bo examined later in tho week In Juvenile Court. ' "Tho combination ot cheap motion pictures and negligent mothers has produced a condition of Wild West crlmo here In the Hronx which can bo curbed best If women wul uso tho etrap on their wnyward sons at the first signs of serious dereliction," eaid Magistrate I.evlne. "In tho last two weeks I havo been Impressed by tho number of cases ut small children caught In tho commission of crlm03. It looks as If wo aro having a baby crime wave. "The fault seems to be with tho mothers. The fathers, having to pro vide the living for tho family, must necessarily be away from home, and tho children are In the hands of tho women. If mothers pay more atten tion to vapid amusement than they do to tho well being of their children It is not to bo wondered at that tho youngsters go astray. "When I was a boy n tho east aido tho place had a bad reputation, but there were no children commit ting crimes in those days. Our moth ers knew how and when to use tho ,cat o' nine tails, and wo all had to eccount for our tlmo and our move 'mcnts. In other words, family life was real. There wero no yellow jnovlos and cheap pool rooms for boys 'then, and thero should bo nono now."
