POLICE ARE ANXIOUSLY
AWAITING FURTHER NEWS

The members of the Hammond po-
lice department. are still waiting anx-
iously to hear what the new democratic
administration is going to do regarding
the passage of the amended metropoli-
tan police bill.
So far there have been no new candi-
dates for the office Of chief of police.
and Captain Peter Austgen and ex-
Sheriff Carter are still the faverites in
the guessing.
Now that Mayor Becker is able to get
around again it is expected that there
will be some developments in the local
situation.
