and Heart Throbs Humor bv Andrew Member of Bureau Circulation and A Serving Newmarket and the rural districts of North York A Gambles Passing Glances COUNTY POLICE FORCE The matter of establishing a York County police force is now under active consideration This was indicated at a recent town council meeting by Deputy- Reeve Caroline Ion The subject is one merits and should receive thorough consideration and study It has much to commend it on the surface But there are also certain potential weaknesses that York County is becoming increasingly ever greater indication that could appropriately be made Doubtless this will he done by Mr Justice Roach when he makes his report However the references to Magistrate Hollinrake are in a different category They are pro per subject lor the comment we are is a monstrous thing that a self- admitted gambler and law breaker should be able to smear a dedicated public ser vant in the that done His To i populated tent and then this trend will being divided In other word ministration purposes the boundaries do not exist at all That being the case there is much to be said for unification of police services the same might be with respect to fire departments and other phases of civic administration as well But in facing up to the situation Decision is and we feel quite pro perly so to start with the police In practice this is one phase of municipal service that knows no boundaries A policemans duty is to check or prevent wrongdoing wherever he may be and he has certain rights and definite responsi bilities in that regard The

that course of action is indicated A HOPEFUL DEVELOPMENT addition duplies could be largely be little doubt advantage and overlapping There can such a system would be less The address delivered last
