coasiabtsbmetowr force would each have an increase of $1400 the two corporal would each receive an additional $1900 while the sergeant would get $2300 Roughly the increases totalled $18000 while complete salaries of the personnel would amount to $41000 An additional $17000 would be necessary for the use the police car and office equipment The general Opinion judging various remarks made on the sub jeet was that it would be very difficult trying to recruit police force from any other source The view was expressed that the town could do no better than continue the present arrangement On
