Governors debate cutbacks and juvenile delinquency policy
Ohio Governor Rhodes argued against large highway cuts while noting nine percent of interstate construction could be finished by April first. He urged Congress to repeal the Juvenile Delinquency Control Act of 1968 and align it with the Crime Control Act. Rhodes critiqued job training as essential, linking delinquency to education. A separate theft report cited a $250 TV stolen from a Sheraton West Chester room and $150 worth of tools taken from a garage.
