SAYSLEMOYNE
NEEDS AN OFFICER
Burgess Dietz Will Urge
Council to Employ a
~ Patrolman

Lemoyne, Pa, Nov. 17.-Declar-
ing this borough is open to unli-
censed statesmen and that rowdyism
is reigning supreme because of the
lack of police protection, Burgess
DR.. Walter l.. Dietz to-day said he
will go before the new council to
urge the employment of an officer
to patrol the borough.
The burgess said many complaints
had been made during the past year
from residents who said they have
been ''short measured" by hucksters
and statesmen and that their win
dowS were broken by children
throwing stones. There were re-
ports of other misconduct.
Burgess Dietz said: The chill
dren of the borough carry on this
rowdyism continually without being
molested. 1 have been having many
complaints from residents who say
that children coming home from
school throw stones at each other
and sometimes residents complain of
window panes broken by children.
Furthermore, motorists take advan-
tage of the lax laws here and use
the main thoroughfares as a speed
way, caring little whether they
drive on the right or left side of
the street. Complaints come to me
occasionally about boys using the
pavements for bicycles. endangering
pedestrians. The air rifle is causing
quiet a little trouble also. Many
housewives are complaining about
being short measured from wagons
on the street, many of these sales
men are going about town without
licenses, but I am helpless to put
an end to it because / have no one
