intent to anticipate what p ro ­
jects the new group would un­
dertake once his office had
helped establish the machinery

In re fe rrin g

Judgment they are d riftin g f a r ­

not,” he added, " th a t people

don’ t look at them as a s e rv ­

Rook also noted that many
communities
aren ’ t working
closely with law e n fo rc e m e n t
agencies and he hopes that his
advisory council w ill be a step
in the d irectio n of bringing
law enforcement and the public
closer by bridging the com­

that he was pleased with the
Interest already shown in his
