Show ) Pa 2 INDEPENDENT Sugar House, Utah Thursday, March 12. 1959 "cop on the beat" has to tol-erate the opposite of these feelings because the attitude of one or two people who are responsible for the policy of. the department towards the citizens. Cooperation Pays When a police department assumes the policy thai the " only procedure to be used i in ' correcting a minor vio-lation, whether it be traffic or other, is an arrest with, sub-sequent inconvenience or loss of . money to the citizen it is stating that everything is either black or white. Such a department is classifying all citizens into two groups either good or bad and com-pletely disregards the human-ataria- n side" of life and the fact that most of us are just plain human. It is far better for a police department to gain cooperation from the public through respect and admination than through fear and excessive use of power. The police are servants of is seldom responsible for the attitude he displays in his contact with the public. Their mode of action is determin-ed by ( the policy of the head of the department. on is a two way street and the public will co-oper- with a police department only if the police co-oper- ate with the public. The average citizen would like to co-oper- with and show. respect for and even admire their police department and it is regretable that the the public and they should ex-- haust all possible tact, dip- - using the power of arrest. The law enforcement officer we meet and see on the street If you haven't been making your opinions and desires known to your legislators and you shouldn't complain. ' "A kilowatt is neither Republican nor Democrat." That was said by Secretary of the Interior Seaton, in a recent speech. Electric generating capacity, he predicted, must be tripled by 1980. He went on: "What does this mean? It will mean an investment in generating, transmission and distribution facilities of more than $100 billion. Now who's going to pick up the tab, which amounts to $5 billion a year Uncle Sam? Not so The congress has never voted that kind of money for power development. And besides, the only pockets Uncle Sam has be done by governmental and other public agencies in cooperation with private power companies. But it is the plainest and purest are yours. . . ." Mr. Seaton indicates that the job will have to of logic that we should encourage the private power companies, as against governmental of quasi-governmen- tal groups, to under-take the lion's share of the job as they are willing and more than able to do. These companies pay heavy taxes, instead of avoiding taxes or consuming taxes through deficit operations People invest in them voluntarily, and no burden is imposed on the general taxpayers. And their rates and service standards are regulated by public bodies whose duty is to see that the companies get no moore than a fair return in the way of profit and that the user's interest is fully protected. It is plain to see that the tax paying public can be a little wary of secret City Commission meetings that might result in property sales all over town. ' Forest Dale and The Lafayette School having been quietly disposed of, maybe they can peddle the City and County Building as a Museum location and build another building with both sides paying the full bill. I personally feel that public buildings and lands being sold should at least be presented to an open meeting of the citizens who might want to register legitimate protests. The favorite topics being discussed in various publications these days are Taxes, The Berlin Crisis, Foreign Aid, Taxes, Juvenile Crime and Taxes. ' And so to vary the reading a little, let's talk about you and us. The vast majority of the readers of this paper are residents of the Southeast Section of the City.
