A Lesson From The French The French tricolor (the French flag) was brought into use recently in the fight against alcoholism in wine-drinking France. The govern­ ment decided that the patriotic red, white and blue will appear on all soft drinks with less than one percent alcohol. Bernard Lefay, Minister of Public Health, said: “ The idea is to show the population drinks that are good for them.” The government of Premier Edgar Faure is continuing the cam­ paign begun by former Premier Pierre Mendes-France. Mormon Expansion in England More than 1,000 persons from all parts of Britain attended the ground­ breaking ceremony for Britain’s first Mormon Temple at Newchapel, near East Grinstead, Sussex on August 27. The ceremony was performed by 83- year-old David O. McKay, president of the Church of Jesus Christ of Lat­ ter Day Saints. The Salt Lake City M o r m o n T a b e r n a c l e Choir, 379 strong, took part in the ceremony. The building will be the London dis­ trict temple and will be either the 13th or 14th Mormon temple in the world — depending on which is fin­ ished first, one now under construc­ tion in New Zealand or London’s. tied Chinese Courts on Juvenile Delinquents An official document that reached Stockholm through Moscow in July discloses in detail the system adopted by the Chinese Communists to inflict forced labor punishment on teen-age children. The document is the text of China’s penal code, known official­ ly as “ Reform Through Labor Regu­ lations.” Boys and girls sentenced to this punishment undergo it in special reformatories charged with “ control­ ling and educating juvenile delin­ quents from 13 to 18 years of age.” The young prisoners, according to the code, shall be “ educated in poli­ tics, in the new morality, in basic culture and in p r o d u c t i o n tech­ niques.” These children’s reforma­ tories are to be set up in provinces and municipalities according to the need and are to be run by the Chinese National Security Service.
