The mother was standing in front of the home when she noticed the car following the little girl as her daughter turned the comer. The child told her mother that the man had followed her and said “bad things" to her from inside the car. It's not only the duty of a parent to report such incidents but it should be part of the home training of school children in the observance of certain precautions that may mean the difference in saving of their lives from sex degenerate. NELL RI’SSEIJ Sex oriminal » are the most difficult kind of criminal to detect other than the homicidal maniac who kills without motive to the spur of a twisted impulse Sex criminals are often respected, outwardly law-abiding mem bers of the community. The families of their victims are shamed into silence because of the “embarrassment” and publicity that comes with reporting such attacks. If you have children In your home, you should begin to school them as early as possible about what to do and what not to do when they are accosted by strangers. Most parents like to feel their children are likeable. Often as not the mother considers It quite a compliment when a stranger “takes to" her child and the child seems to get along with strangers. The psychological damage that can result from a child's contact with a sex degenerate may ruin her or his personality for life. It can Instill in a girl a deep-seated aversion and terror of the sex act which will make it impossible for her to ever assume a normal role as a wife and mother. a These are the recognized precautionary measures with which you can instruct your child: 1. Tell them they are never, under any circumstances, to ac cept rides, money or treats from strangers. 2. Tell them not to go off alone with strangers who offer “jobs.” 8. Tell them not to loiter around public toilets. 4. Warn them against playing in alleys, deserted building or other Isolated spots. 5. Teach them to scratch the number of any automobile that follows them or accosts them in the dirt of the road, or on the sidewalk with a stone. The same precautionary measures can pretty much apply to adults. Women who live alone or have to be in a house alone at night should never, under any circumstance, open a door full swing unless they know who is on the other side. The best precaution is to keep a foot firmly planted against the comer of the door. Even better protec tion are the one-way mirrors that allow you to see who is on the outside although they can't observe you. If you are on the street alone at night and feel or know you are being followed, you have two courses to follow. If you are near home, run like the devil and have your key in your hand when you reach the door. Once Inside, call the police. If you aren’t within running distance of home and you know you are being followed, my suggestion Is to hit for the nearest house, duck In, and If necessary ring the bell or bang on the door while you scream your head off. If you ran afford it, always take a taxicab if you are out late. Ask the driver to wait until you are In the house. AND get the name and number of the driver from his Identification plate.

I had an experience soon after I came to New York to live in 1939 I was staying with my aunt and uncle at the time while work ing a nightclub beat for one of the large Negro weekly newspapers. I had covered the show at Small's Paradise one night and although it was about 3 a. m., I decided to walk home because it was only a little over two blocks. As I passed a doorway only a few buildings from my aunt's apartment building, a shadow moved back in the darkness. A man was standing there almost entirely hidden by the shadow of the door way. As l walked by he darted out of the doorway and kept step with me, footstep for footstep. All of us are equipped with a sixth sense that tells us when danger is on our heels. The beat, beat, beat of those footsteps on a dark street terrified me into walking fast, faster, then run ning. I’p the steps, Into the lobby with those footsteps pounding behind me. lip the first flight and the second flight. At the land ing to the second flight, I turned just In the split second to save myself from being attacked from behind. A gutters] voice, my loud scream. Then the voice of my aunt calling down from the fourth floor That was what saved me. That experience left such a psychological mark on me that I cannot stand to hear footsteps walking behind me even In broad daylight. A moving shadow In a doorway at night panics me Into cold sweating terror. If this ran happen to an adult and leave Its permanent mark, what must It do to the impressionable mind of a child T Believe me, friends, report any and every incident in your neigh borhood that in any way indicates the presence of a sexual degener ate. Cases of Indecent exposure, of children accosted, of lurking strangers t offering sudden attention to children. Your alertness may save a life or keep tragedy from descending on a home next door or across the street. However, all of this doesn't offer a solution as to how to treat the sexual criminal. It takes psychiatric study and observation of each individual case, a study and observation which we are not able to "afford" In most American communities. Most of the causes are rooted as far back as childhood and adolescence. Loneliness, emo tional frustration, the feeling of never having been loved or wanted. A dozen and one causes that mount each on top of the other until they get out of control and become a menace. By all means, encourage your child to be friendly, but friendly with caution. If they go to the movies or the park or the playground, try and see to it that they go with other children. Make them under stand they are NOT to leave the other children to go off with strangers who ask for directions, say they know "your Daddy” or use other subterfuges to get children off by themselves.
