Hi* men are taught to try to anticipate an.l pre Vent crime Here i<- a significant inci<lent which catne within hi* fciotice not long ago One night a cop in plain clothe* saw two young women pause on a prominent atreet as two young men addressed them; smile; interchange whiapered words and start with the men in the direction of a cafe. No law had been broken, hut the cop recalled that he had seen one of the girls a few evenings be fore drinking with a man in a place not above sus picion. H* took a chance. He butted in. He approached the young woman, begged a word in private, led her ■ few steps away from her companion, showed her his police star and said the chief wanted to see her. A hardened woman probably would have made a scene. This one didn't. She went with the policeman quietlv to the station, where the chief talked to her a* a good lather would. Her *torv. later confirmed, wa* the old, old storv Born in poverty, denied adequate schooling, "die had had to work for self support. She toiled all dav at tiring task* for just enough pay to keep her afloat. \N ith night came the human craving for companionship. But. alas, there was "nowhere to go"—nowhere but on the street* or into the cafes. So onto the streets she went. Not to be vicious. Just to be human; to get some fun in relief from the strain of exhausting toil. The chief informed her of the hazard* of her choice And fortunately, in this instance, was able to bring her into touch with a motherly elder woman who has perhaps saved her soul. But he cannot hope to do as well toward all. Youth •will have fellowship, wisely or ill. Isn't society to blame when there is "nowhere to go"? The Fight on Bob Bridges CERTAIN' sanctimonious-faced gentlemen don't seem to relish the idea of being openly associated with the Ayres gn!d brick gang. They don't like to be charged with opposing "Ilob" Bridges for port commissioner because he ptit the skids under the Harbor Island fake. They don't want the people to think they are against Bridges because he championed public ownership of port projects. WELL. THEN, LET US BE FRANK. WHAT IS THE REASON YOU ARE AGAINST BRIDGES. GEN TLEMEN? WHY SHOULD HE NOT BE RE-ELECTED? Come out of your shells and speak up You have con ducted your "pussy-foot." sneaking, skulking, stealthy cam paign against Bridges long enough Come out in the open. Fight on the level. Cut out this under-handed attack. If you have legitimate cause for op posing Rridges, why don't you make the same public? Bridges has been port commissioner for two yearn. He has made his record. Where, in that record, gentlemen, has he proven false to his trust to the people' Has he not. on the contrary, time and again, shown himself the stoutest defender of the people's interests? Has he not, on that account, been the butt of the most bitter campaign of villification on the part of the Harbor Island fakers and a bribed press? You may hypocritically deny that your opposition to Bridges is dictated by "special interests." But that won't go. It's altogether too lame Empty denial means nothing YOU'VE GOT TO BE MORE SPECIFIC.
