Sir, VIVL 011, There has been considerable ad- verse criticism about town regarding our town council s action in the so- called police 1'e-organization. Many e.\:pected that some of our leading` citizens would express their views `.11 the local press. However, the writer has waited in vain for somet.hin;_: to appear. Surely this absence cannot be attributed to lack of interest. ulimr io Han cu'+nnHnn nml 11`{\ Hm.

What is the situation and are the members of the council wiho sup- ported the report serious in their attitude ? Some weeks ago Constable Davis tendered his resignation, which was rejected by council, and now he is red without explanation. The remainder of the force were also red, but re-engaged to work under a new chief. Let us examine the actions of the council. Regarding; Constable Davis treatment, did he become incapable between the dates his resipmation was refused and his dismissal `. If not, why this reflec- tion ? Chief Case had been a `car- get of criticism by some members of the council since his appointment, but no denite charge was made, only _g'ossip and insinuations. He was red and re-enp,'ag'ed to a posi- tion of greater trust, for it is ad- mitted that the night men have greater responsibilities than those employed in the day. Constable l{a_\'ner was also red and re-en- t-.'z1g`ed. This ofcer had been seek- ing an increase of salary for at least two years, but it was only after be- in;-,' lischarg'ed as incompetent that the much sou}.-`ht for increase came. Inspector Bowman was also red and re-en;.;ap;ed, and his smiling` face now betokens that the laugh is on the council. ' {nn:..lnuinn~ Han nl\n1Yn nu n 1-nfn, councu. , Considering` the above, can rate- 4 payers feel that our council is cap- able to cope with the situation `I During the discussion Ald. Gracey said that he had been requested by citizens to introduce the matter. Ald. Malcomson said that the public demanded an investigation, and ` Mayor Craig` concurred in this. Second Deputy-Reeve Poucher said that liootlegrgiiig was carried on in several places. Ald. Bricker, Chairman of Police, demanded that specic charp,'es be made. Why did he not stick to his guns '? Was it because of Aid. Malcomson s excuse` that soiled linen would be \va.~)l1<.-dl in public '. When the report to re- oijcunize the police force was pre- sented Aid. Bricker said he would take full responsibility for it. How- ever, a few minutes later he rt-t'use to vote for or a_L'ainst its adoption, an action ab. contrary to council procedure, as re;.:ulations re- qllil'r- all mt-mliers to vote an all (1ll('>`1l0ll.\` l1lll(r.\`.\` excused by a ma- jority vote of council.
