"He can then be held responsible to I the people of the county for the safety I of all, so far as It is humanly poshlble j His men shall be responsible lo him alone .and he shall have pov/er to re I move them after charges have been iiro- ferred against them tind they have had fair trial.
"Above all else his force should be Independent of all other police agencies of the county. Including the sheriff at-d his force.
"I think a small force would be ade- I quale at Iho beginning. Posi-ibly i^ j men would do, Including theinotorcyde I officers now employed. This could in I elude the superintendent andtwolieuten- I ants who would work with him. ea-l. standing duty in eight hour shifts. If they could not do their own clerical work, as It was done for years in .Vow ; York City, by the man at the desk » I clerk could be had for them. That \i isome sidecars and ptwisibly automobihi' ladetaU. They could.have motorcycles jof the popular make or they rouid usi I cars of other deiwirlments. for thuii i work would be largely at night. ' "They must have a telephone systen I with a central ,it-thc court house or thi superintendent's oHlce so that men oi ' post  could   be  rea<bed  at   short   not!e,
¦ and so that men »m iluty could reiiort from various booths at stated tirnc.i.
i "Most of these men would be on duly at night for that is the time when most . of the crimes In our o<ninly are cx>m
¦ mltted. In the event of a. crime the ' 'phone could be used and headquarter* ! apprised of what had taken place. Wore ' would be flashed back to the men or ; post and  they  would  be  on watch oi
go to the scene of the crime as required ' All avenues of escape could be closed i we could work with the Xew York Cit.i . police department and fast nnrs carrvinr , liandltii wotfid l>e apprehended nlther U\
our men or thoee of the neighboritr.! ' forcsK.
"The talk of legMi^ion to get c<x>per-
atlon from vUtage pcdice foross now in
not sound.  Tbs cooperation would come
if we had the county police force. They Would be glad to inopefutp iin<l iC any village |)o'.iceniiin did not v.-ork with the county police people o'' his vin.ige would \cry soon want to know wh>'.    " ^
"The superintendent <t| polle'e wnTffil educate tiie people lo 'plu.iie In a t<i- Itorl of the crime Immedialely it was learned instead of waiting until the next morning and In that way Ihe <'o<jpeia-. ¦ti'iii of the avciu.i;e citii:eu wt.uild bn secured also.
