TERRIBLE FACTS

In brilliant and Illuminating report prepared by
the Civil Rights Federation and submitted to the
Common Council the Police department of Detroit
stands exposed 1t is record of the legal tyranny
directed upon the most helpless section of our popu-
lation The report leads inevitably to the one con-
cluson that The Detroit Police department is gov
erned by policy of lawless disregard of the consttu-
tional rights of citizens, which has resulted in illegal
shootngs and beatngs false arrests and indiscrlml=
nate searches of homes, the establishment of an
espionage division to spy upon members of the COM
unity and the errorzation of sections of the people
by intimidation and violence"
A host of easesof actual violence and murder are
cited and the facts nothing short of terrible. We
have the ironic situation wherein the agency for law
enforcement is in reality agency of lawlessness
itself Indeed, it appears that we citizens are so
tolerant that we will tolerate anything. 1t goes with
out saying that there would be police tyranny if
we would refuse to tolerate it, We elect the mayor
and the mayor appoints and directs the Commission
err of Police In Short we ourselves have permitted
this plague upon our city by electing to Office an
official who by his silence of necessity condones the
brutality of the police
We hope that the Common Council will follow the
recommendation of this report and institute i'm
parchment proceedings against the Commissioner.
Despite the action of the Common Council however,
we urging the voters of the city to do their OBJ
vious duty on election day.
