In the main the public attitudo toward them is a nice mixture of awo an«i d'Htaste. That probably results fi-om an occas- ional minor brush with them result- in<» in annoyance and inconvenience. Wo realize that a parkinf;: ticket, or an artrunient over stop-lig'hts is t.o^ thing to colour our whole attitude, so wc fall l)ack on our recollection of the reord of Police States, with thsir Gestapo, their Ogpu, their Brown or Black shirts. It remains for us to remember howeiver that if police power can be- come danperous, it is not beausi; of the aggrcssivenessof the police but because of the laxness of venality of the people. A police State never e mi'rped fnmi ;i nation whose actions are determined by the thinking of its people, hut only from those who are ready to delegate private responsi- bilities. That being so, we might consider the relation of our own thinking to the police power. There is the attitude that assjTcs that the rights of the criminally- minded are of more consequence than the rights of the average citizen. Therefore, frequently, when the pn- lic<> power arrests criminals, mawkish public sentiment undoes the work. There is the belief that the police should be on the side that we person- ally favor. Therefore their use dur- ing strikes seems to us to establish a partiality toward one side or an- Small Ads other. Now police have no right to adjudicate the rights and wrongs ot "ny issue. Their business is to main- tain order, to make law effective, tj ])!otect property and persons, and to s'-ure dll citizens the orderly enjoy- nent of their rights and privilef^es. That is true, whether the law they protect is to assure everyone under all civeumstances undisputed access to his home or his job, or whether it a.ssurcs the worker in his legal right "f picketing. The use of police power has noth- ing to do with the wisdom, imparti- ality or justice of law but only with its enfoiicement, with as little vio- lence as is necessary to maintain il. Xo one likes high-handed police tac ticE, and everyone recognizes that police, being human, will sometims cverstaj) the neeessities and need disciplining. But ,we must also re- cognize that puhlic failure to sustain them in their necessary work, even where that phase of work is distasta- lul to us, is as dangerous as to per- n,it them the added powers of the Tolice State. One leads to anarchy, the othci leads to despotism. FOR SALE â€" 6 Pigs, U weeks old. â€" Geo. Boyce, phone 0CJ4. - 10c2 FOR SALE â€" Red Durham cow, due ..\ug.
