It has often be remarked that a newspaper vản serve as a link between Government and the people Thta is, no doubt, true, & newspaper carries a section "usually known as "News from the Government" o "extracts from the Gazette", which provides information about uovernment's policies, usually proposed bill3 or new ordinances. The Government, through the inforust ion Services. Department, use lly sendy items of news which affect the people, to the newspapers so that they in turn can. publish the news -

There is another section in the newspaper which publishes letters written by the readers, known as the Correspondence Colum, it provides an excel lent opportunity for the public to on ka known their grievances or complaints. If Government fails to act on the complaints, it is not uneemmch to notice that: the matter is quickly taken up by the Editorial. staff of the newspaper. Feature articles presenting the views of prominent citizens will gradually appear in the press. The editorials, too, will take up the matter, thus leaving the Government officiels concerned in

assment, followed by greater embarrassment-11-

are offered as an added attraction. Sometimes readers may write to a newspaper to ask questions, and some of these questions are a source of delight to those who read them. The answers are equally numerous at times.

Commercial Pirms have found that a newspaper is one principal medium of communication whereby they can publicise their products, particularly when theyˋ are new. If advertisements can help businessmen to sell their products, advertisements can also help: consumers to select and buy goods that suit their re quirementa. Thus we can say that a newspaper

1st provides guidance to its readers,

''' There are also advertisemente of jobs available to the people. There must have been hundreds and thousands

of people who have used the newspaper to seek and eventually acquire employment, with remarkable success of course. The editorial, too, provides a form of guidance to the readers, especially those who know very little of the "background" of certain news items..

To report news as truthfully as possible must be considered as one of the most important responsibilities of any newspaper, Any misleading news item is bound to cause unpleasant consequences. Imagine a man being reported as a criminal when his innocence is accepted.. by everyone. He will socn: earn the distrust of everyone including nis friends. Although freedom of the press allows a newspaper to exist without a government censorship. it also implies that a newspaper cannot.. publien anything falsely or ariything deterrent to a person's reputation. In fact, there is a newspaper la.. known as the law of dibel: which ensures that this

freedom or the press is never abused.

A: newspaper must not bring public ridicule to as person, because this is just as bad as ruining

person's reputation. Only when it has been carefully am definitely ascertained that a certain story is true can a newspaper publish the story. Of course, sometimes due to printing errors a story is distorted. But in

the very next issue, the Editor normally apologizes for

the mistakes, and the mistakes are pointed out to thei readers,

A newspaper must not be a prejudiced, institution.

It should be impartial to all, otherwise it may arousel and spread enrity among everybody. It should not be Wanti-y either against the government or a particular

"group of people, although it can be critical of th "government's policies, or actions on those of a.

groups. or organizations. Constructive, and not

destructive, criticisms are good, for they help to

shape future events. Above all, a newspaper must never] preach hatred or political antagonism:

hus, if a newspaper can inform, entertain and

guage the community without any resort to dishonesty

or fabrication of the truth, it provides one of the

beat, and yet the cheapest, community services.

question: (2) Comment on the problem of juvenile

delinquency in Hong Kong, and mention how it may be tackled.

Answer

It has been estimated that one out of every six criminals jin Hong Kong is a juvenile. Although juvenile delinquency is hot a problem as serious ay it is in other countries, it must not be taken to mean

that it cannot develop into a serious one some day.

It is interesting to note that food, entertainment and impulsiveness are the main causes of juvenile crimes in Hong Kang.

Seventy. per cent of juvenile delinquents commit offences in order to obtain good. These offenders come from very poor families, and are consequently goaded: by hunger into stealing. To them "necessity knows no lew" is no truer here that elsewhere. It must be readily seen therefore, that the standard of livingo! most people particularly those from the resettlement: and squatter areas as well as from the overcrowded. districts of Hong Kong is shamefully low. The efforta. of Government and local voluntary agencies: should logically be channelled in the direction of provision: of food for these people. The UN.T.CE.F. has done remarkable work in this field, but it concentrates on

children, Perhaps we need a united Nations.

International Youth's Emergency Fund to look after our youths who come from very poor families.

lack of entertainment and recreations for young people has forced many to get money by committing: crimes, so that they too can be entertained like youn people from well-to-do families. When the Urban Council last year introduced "Pop-In" concerts at Blake Pier and at the City Hall and other public places, many people especially Kaifong" is aders strongly, objected to these concerts purely on theoretical and superficial reasons.. But Government: Wisely paid no attention to publio criticisms, and it ls indeed. enlightening to hear that the post of Youth Recreation Officer within the Urban Council has been

retained indefinitely. It is equally enlightening to be informed of the newly appointed Y.R. }fficer's

" intention to stage "mind-tatoosa_for Hong Kong's

youths.

Various youth clubs in Hong Kong, outstanding. ̇among which are the Federation of Youth Groups, Boys!

and Girls' Clubs Association and the Hong Kong and Kowloon Joint Kaifong Touth research Council, have

been greatly involved in youth work, So are the civic organisations such as the Lions International, the Rotary Club, the、Round Table and not forgetting the Hong Kong Jaycees. But much, much more has to be done for the underprivileged youths of Hong Kong. If we do not provide them entertainment they will commit crimes from petty stealing to robbery, to get the money to Cenjoy themselves. That the lack of entertainment has

constituted an important cause of our juvenile crimes 15 shown by the fact that 2 out or 5 juvenile offenders commit crimes for this reason.

(Female juvenile delinquents are just as often in the news as their male counterparts. It has been estimated that 10% of those young people who break tha law are prostitutes. It is indeed a tragedy to see, young girls being forced to dishonour, themselves. Many. of these girls are forced to work for "triad"

socleties. But there are those who prefer to leave a decent. job for better pay or as more commonly referred to as "easy moneyi ke say that when girls take up prostitution it is a tragedy; because apart from ruining their reputation, they also ruin their health

and those of others."

Great supervision of notorious haunts such as basrding houses, dancing halls and ballrooms by the Juvenile Liaison Section of the Police can help to prevent the aread of prostitution in Hong Kong. An Urban Councillor has recently suggested that: Government should Legalizerostitution as done insome) curopean countries. In this way, among other things

l Licensed proatitutes can be medically checked from7 ime to time, and social diseases can be prevented from spreading.but those who strongly believe tha prostitution can be wiped out, object to the legalization of prostitution, on the ground that it may encourage more girls to enter the profession,

Most Jaw-breakers have very poor family back ground. The remedy clearly lies in the introduction of educational programmes depicting a model community living pattern. These programmes can be screened in those areas where they are needed most. Many 'children: grow up with their parents, and parents thus set example fon the children to follow and it is therefore the responsibility of the Government to raise, the standard of living of these people. Poverty breeds contempt for the law. Films shown in Local cinemas should be more strictly censored. Most films today are filled with violence and sex. These films have a harmful, ir not disastrous, effect on the intellectual development of our children. Farents. of course, should exercise
