There is Need Of an Increase
in the Local Police Force.
0thar Local Items.
Items OF news can be left at COTS res
taurant on Bullock's Point avenue and
they will receive prompt attention and
publication.

Those who live on the East Side are not
alone I'm their desire for a larger police
force here, as many West Side residents
recognize the necessity OF an Increase.
The regular police protection of Diverslde
consists OF a srgeant, who has to look OUT
FOR the entire place during the day time.
and two patrolmen. who look after the
business section and as much as possible
of ,he residence districts at night
Both the day and the night force are
inadequate for the proper protection Of
n place with as large property interests
and population as Riverside has. OF
course the business sections have TO be
guarded In the night time, and on tho
beats OF both the night officers cover a
great deal OF territory, the efficiency OF
the force Is impaired by the great amount
of work imposed on the two men.
In the day time the sergeant has to look
out for the welfare OF the entire place.
and IL Is a physical impossibility for him
TO do II az II should really be done. Many
citizens agre that at least two new men
should be added TO the local force, one
TO work day times ane the other 10 work
nights. An additional officer would en-
able the police to afford some sort of at
tention TO the East Side. which at pres
ent they unable to give. An occasional
visit by one OF the night officers IL prac-
present conditions and that Is wholly in
adequate.
