porter.
"Some remarks made by an officer to one
of the representatives Of The REPUBLICAN
lately about the breakdown of the Gamewell
police alarm boxes and some comments about
the men having to turn in the alarm every
hour. There is quiet investigation going on
to find out who told your reporter. l can't
say anything more to you"
why" posed the reporter.
''We are afraid to open our mouths is the
true reason. / don't think though that any
one Of the men will squoal. Though you can't
tell"
Then as citizons you can't express your
opinions on police matters without standing
in fear of having your words carried to head
quarters, and more than that what you see
and hear you have to keep it dark" said
the reporter
II shan't say anything" and with know
