Comments
AT the last regular council
meeting, a motion was made by
Robert Brown. one OF the out
standing councilmen OF Ecorse.
that the Safety commission be in
structed 70 bring the Police and
Fire departments up to full force.
but his motion was not supported
and no roll call was taken. Why +,
Well to bring the Police depart
ment up to full force. they would
have TO put on another colored
officer. and that IL something the
counci doesn't want 10 do.
Although they promised the
West Side another officer during
the last election they have failed
to live up To their promise Funds
were appropriated last juno when
The budget was made up. but we
haven't received the colorcd APP
poutment yet. However. they did
place another white officer on the
payroll
II Is nearing election time
again They will use that same
line on the West Side. but a
burnt child fears fire. and don't
think the same old fire will burn
the West Side agein. at least not
from tho same mon.
II all the councilmen had
Ecorse at heart. as Councilman
Brown has. Ecorse would be a
wonderful place 10 live In: but
the majority OF them seem to have
so much prejudice that they can't
see the West Side OF the track
until election time.
Take our recreation on the West
Side We did not get an ice-skat-
ing rink until February. but they
had four on the Fest Side before
last Christmas. Now look also at
our playground Where Is Il? The
Government Is building houses on
s. For six weeks we have been
promised another playground. but
IL hasn't materialized yet. a spot
has been picked, but no work has
been done to get II in shape. We
hone II won't be like the skating
rink. Schools close this week.
