Hall believes that the time has
arrived when the man on foot
should be relegated to a minor role
in police work, and the man on a
motorcycle take his place.
In a recent address In the coun.
ell chamber he urged that half Of
the police force be placed on traf-
fic duty and that the motor squad
be greatly increased. This, he de-
cIared would supply more rapid
and efficient protection for various
sections Of the city and act as a
curb against lawless motorists and
bandits.
In proposing the increased use
Of motorcycles, Hall urged that
such machines be provided with
armored shields instead OF being
used In unprotected condition, as
at present. He drew a vivid word
picture of the police station OF the
future, with armored motorcycles
parked outside.
Suddenly an alarm of a hold-up
is flashed from city hall by radio.

SENATE OR SOVIET-WHICH?

The substantial people of the country would do we'll to heed the warning voiced by Sena- tor Pepper, of Pennsylvania against thought less rdicule of the Senate. Pepper has been in the Senate but short time, and cannot be suspected of having any prejudices in its favor such as might be acquired after long service. He went to the Senate by appoint ment, which appointment was universally ap- proved He has no personal interest Tn pre- venting criticism of the Senate
 It must be apparent to any thoughtful per son that there are some thousands of people of various degress of radlcallsm who would like to overthrow or hamper our system of government. They lose no opportunity to ere ate q prejudice against it. They select the Senate as one of their most frequent objects of attack for the reason that 1t was formerly looked upon as a rich mans Legislative body and out of touch with the welfare of the peo- ole. The ''Reds," whatever their degree o1 redness, are always denomclng the Senate. When substantial citizens voice s1mlari sentl- ments, they are uniting their influence with the forces of radicalsm to destroy confidence in government, and when that has been ac- complished, chaos will follow.
 This is not the way Senator Pepper says It, but it is the truth and probably what he had in mind If any individual Senator has done or failed to do anything of importance that merits criticism, it is not only the right but the duty of free American citizens to express their opinions thereon. But condemnation of specific acts of commission or omission IS one thing and general denunciation of one of the constitutional branches of the government IS entirely another To secure the defeat of an unsatisfactory incumbent is entirely proper to destroy public respect for a branch of the goverrmenr is not only improper but is border ing upon teaching of anarchy.
 There could be no more disturbing specta- cle than to see the good people of the country ioin with the bad and vicious in undermining our Government.
