I am delighted to send greetings to all members of Ontario
Command and sincerest best wishes for successful Legion

During my travels this past year, 1 have•boon made more
deeply aware of the extent of activities throughout the

awareness of the good work done within the communities.
It seems we do not "blow our trumpets" enough.
A Loglon Week, suchas promoted In Ontario Command. Is
en excellent moans by which we can publicize Our activities
and at the same time. encourage our newer members to
become actively involved.
Keep up the good work and my best to you all.

Ontario Provincial Police
Commissioner Harold H.
Graham will commence a
well-earned retirement from
theForce on September 30.
After joining the OPP on
January 1, 1941, ,Graham
went on to become top
executive of the 5,000 -strong
police force in 1973. His long
career with the OPP started
with service in London and
Sarnia. He later became the
Force's youngest inspector
with the criminal , in-
vestigation branch and
earned a distinguished
reputation as • a homicide
investigator.
Graham commanded the
OPP , special . services
division for seven years as
an assistant cmmmissioner.
In 1970, he was appointed
head of the Force's ad-
ministration division and a
year later was appointed
deputy commissioner in .
charge of the operations side
of theOPP.
Policing has taken
tremendous strides over the
.past decade and Graham has
ushered the OPP into the
years of the technical
revolution:'
Laser, technolgoy is now
routinely used for finger-
print detection. Latest
helicopters and fixed -wing
aircraft are always ready for
patrol service and special
assignments. Numerous
applications have been found
for Patest computers in
manpower control and
deployment as well as
storage of criminal in-
formation.
Also under. Graham's
.leadership, the hiring • of
female constables to work
shoulder -to -shoulder with
male counterparts became a
reality and management and
personnel development
programs have been
established at every rank.of
the OPP.
