Vandals: Think Tank Says Catch Them But Don't Punish Them Too Harshly.

Haydon, Carolyn

Times Educational Supplement (London), n3303 p6 Oct 20 1978

A report of the British government's Central Policy Review Staff finds no reliable evidence that harsh punishment deters the vandal. It recommends that local authorities make buildings more vandal-proof and adults be encouraged to help deter and catch young offenders. (Author/SJL)
