Mounted Patrol > One Man Strong;
 Chief Asks More

Old Dobbin is coming again into his own!
 The army heads at Washington long agreed that the infantry was the basic principle of defensive or of fensive operations against any enemy. Chief Fred H. McDuff Is a firm be- liever in this theory himself, but even though quick action in warfare depends upon cavalry in holding and policing new gained territory, mounted patrolmen are just as neces- sary to any police organization.
 At present one mounted patrolman Is the strength of the present police department This Is due to the lack of funds allowed in budget appropria- tions for maintenance of the police force.
 Chief McDuff will make formal request upon the city commission in October for an increase of persona mel or rather an increase of the police budget of s150,o00, to adequately pro- tect the city through a we'll organ ized police department of sufficient strength 10 property pAtrOi the cftF.
 A larger department, 1t Is pointed out. will decrease the amount of prime, the presence of additional of- ficers in various sections of the city making 1t unnecessary to rush call officers to apprehend the offender, whenever crime is committed.
 The Birmingham police department has been handicapped for some time on account of an insufficient allow ance to add new men where needed. Their work has been second to mono In accomplishing results and the chief contends that his men have worked faithfully and hard and de- serve commendation, but they are working under terrible strain and this safeguard is taken before hand to forestall any crisis that would present itself If break In the nature of real crime wave should develop.
