Dare County is already spend
ing enough money for unqualified
men, to do this job right once a
system is organized to make the
most of it. A day and night watch
at the courthouse is needed to log
all calls, and in this manner an
officer may be reached by phone
or radio, directing the nearest of
ficer where needed. Oddly enough,
the county has equipped several
private cars with radio but has no
central set in the courthouse.
Dare County needs to require
its officers to stay on the job.
Most of them spend their time in
fishing, or other occupations. They
sometimes appear in the evening
and the beach officers usually
leave the beach late at night for
other parts of the county. 1t is
not contended that officers could
stop all crime or catch everybody,
but it is the general rule that the
presence of officers in a locality
keeps many crimes from being
committed. By being near to the
scene Of a crime they can more
readily gather evidence and find
the guilty before they get away
Under the present lack of system
crimes may not be discovered OF
reported until many days have
elapsed, when it is too late to OBJ.
