stay at it.
First of all, they are poorly
paid. This fine, old tradition,
probably dates back to the
days when a cop was a "dumb
flatfoot", lucky to get a job
with some security involved.
During The Depression, the
town cop was envied because
he got a pay check, be it ever
so humble, every week.
Secondly, they must cope
with continued interference
from elected officials, or local
big shots. It might be the
Chairman of the Police Com-
mission,. more concerned with
paring his police budget than
with the quality of the police.

who belongs to the same serv-
ice club as the mayor, and
expects special treatment,
whether it's a parking ticket or
drunk driving charge. This is
hard to take.
Another thing that hugs
them, even those who like the
work, is the hours: working
holidays; special details; calls
in the middle of the night.
And, of course, there's the
job itself. Much of it is rou-
tine, even boring. Everything

hear Dr. Oswald Hoffman, the regkoer
speaker on The Lutoeran Hour, talk or
the subject of inflated words, He contend-

of disguising the truth, He said tnat
"credibility gap" simply means that acme
official statement cannot be the truth —
someone is Tying Civil disobedience is

A complete 200-bed emergency hospi-
tal, in packaged and transportable form,
was positioned in London last week by the
Ontario Department of Health. It will
be available to the southwest section of
the province and, should a major disaster
occur, it can be transported immediately
to the scene, set up and made operational
in a few hours.
In London it is housed at Westminster
Hospital and Dr. William Bugg, director of
the hospital, is medical director for the
emergency unit, Once it has been prop-
erly established a seminar will be held to
familiarize the medical profession with
the specific equipment which has been
included and which they may be called
upon to use at short notice.
This is part of a nation-wide program
initiated by the federal government and
operated in this province by the Emergency
Health Service branch of the Ontario De-
partment of Health. About sixty of these

Some of these speakers should go back
to reading tneir Shakespeare. He was a
tree who employed the English language
so effectively that his writings have grip-

used a single complicated word where a
simple one woe/6 suffice.
The ernpidyrnent of superfluous langue

units will be placed at strategic points
throughout the province,
Each is designed to provide a good
quality of hospital care for the treatment
of 200 seriously injured patients* It can
be transported by cargo aircraft, highway
transport, or railway to the site of a dis-
aster and is kept at its base position all
ready packed for shipment.
Beds, instruments, drugs, dressings,
operating room equipment, electrical gen-
erators—all the items needed in a modern
emergency hospital are included. This
equipment can be set up in any suitable
building, such as a high school, which will
provide 18,000 square feet of floor spate.
The value of such an emergency hos-
pital has already been proven under dis-
aster conditions. One was flown to
Yellowknife in the Northwest Territories,
within 24 hours of the destruction by fire
of the Stanton Yellowknife Hospital in
May of last year.

But I think a;: these things
are secondary. There's some-

that's the attitude of the peo-

A few policemen. of course,
foster this attitude. There are
always a few bullies in uni-

they are a tiny minority, usual-

Even more disturbing, per-

who will stand around and

and the populace. But it used
to be a good-natured, fun-war.
You tried to circumvent the
law, whether it was swiping
apples or beating the speed
limit, If you were caught, you
grumbled a bit, lied like a
trooper, and probably got off
with a warning, And everybody
was happy.
SOW it's open and blatant
battle, It's vicious and ugly. It
is fanned by newsmen and tele-
vision. They always seem to be
there when the cops are man-
handling some screaming
punk, but are never present
when some constable is being
kicked into Jelly.
I've met a Tot of cops in my
day, some in the line of my

some' in the line of theirs. A
few of them were real hoods,

cent, ordinary chaps who
