THESE CHANGING TIMES "Old timers and citizens." "A few thoughts on these changing times. A bank is held up and three brave policemen come to the rescue. Two are killed and one is badly wounded. We can change the slogan of police brutality to Supreme Court brutality. "Of what avail is a crime prevention law and a crime prevention commission when we have a law passed by them? Quote: You don't have to answer questions without your lawyer and if you can not afford one we will furnish' you one. Unquote - In all of the years I have lived on this planet, I have never met a .brutal policeman. It is time we, the people, asked for a repeal of that law just as we asked for an appeal of the inheritance tax law and got it quick. " For there are many people who are getting courage from that law because they are excused by the rabble-rousers and trouble-makers as depressed by conditions. So, old timers, I ask you who grew up like myself without television, radio, electric, not even a phonograph but we got there by honest labor, and get-up , to write to the ones whom you helped to get elected to represent you in this still free country. Get busy and ask for a repeal of this criminal protection law and ask for a stop to this cry of police brutality. I am sure at least fifty per cent of the trouble will be eliminated.
