Juvenile Detention Costs Questioned After Camp Hill Suicide
A Pennsylvania report questions the value of locking troubled youths in state facilities. It cites a 16 year old Lansdale boy who hanged himself after five months in Camp Hill and argues many arrests involve minor offenses that would not be crimes for adults. The O Pake committee urges detention only for youths posing real risk, not for incorrigibility or truancy.

It ends with a portrait of Senator Strom Thurmond and a Pentagon officer’s clash, highlighting Thurmond’s influence and reputation.

Lufkin, at 43, ranks as a leading young figure in finance while his book traces origins to ideas formed during time as Connecticut environmental commissioner from 1971 to 1973. He helped craft the Solid Waste Authority to tackle the state’s disposal of nearly 8.6 pounds of daily waste per resident across 169 towns.

Private enterprise urged to tackle local waste crisis
The piece argues private bids should lead a statewide waste program, limiting authority to 30 paid staff yet authorized to raise 250 million dollars. It critiques old disposal methods like incineration, cites pollution of air and water, and favors local initiative over distant federal programs as a solution. Connecticut may become an extractive state by selling processed garbage metals to manufacturers.
