WRIGHT dentist 342 WASHINGTON STREET, CORNER OF SEVENTH Phone Main 2119 S&ilfi Twelve Years in Portland MORE POLICEMEN NEEDED ALSO MORE PATKOli DRIVERS AND SERGEANTS, CHIEF SAYS. GrIUmacher Outlines Changes He Would Recommend to Increase Efficiency of Force. It developed yesterday that the annual report of Chief cf Police Grltzmacher. filed last January, was not the original budget made out by him, but was one much modified, as far as the recommenda tions for Increasing the force were con cerned. The original list of policemen asked for by him. it developed, was too large to suit some officials, and he im mediately re-wrote his report, making more modest requests. The Increase in the number of police men, as originally made by Chief Grltz macher, would comprise what he terms an Ideal department for Portland, and one which, he declared yesterday. Is badly needed now. The only reason known for frowning upon the first report is lack of funds with which to provide the number of men it was Intended to ask for. Chief Gritimacher's original report railed for one Chief, four captains, six desk sergeants, six patrol sergeants, 13 detectives, six patrol-wagon drivers, six clerks for the telegraph system. 10 cross ing officers, 40 patrolmen for the East Side station, BO patrolmen for the Central ctation and 12 mounted policemen. "That would have made up an Ideal police force." said the Chief yeMerday. "I had my plans all worked out for plac ing the number of officers I intended ask ing for. and we would have had a depart ment that could do efficient work and of which everyone could be proud. I would not care for more captains, but we ur gently need patrol sergeants and desk sergeants, three of each for two stations. The East Side station, which has been provided for, would have had 48 pafrol inen assigned to it. My plan was to place three desk Bergeants in charge of that station, three putrol sergeants In charge of the East 8!de district and I would have assigned one captain to be responsible for the district. I also intended placing eight mounted policemen on the East Side. Then I planned to assign three drivers for the patrol wagon, three clerks to handle the telegraph system and crossing officers were to have -been stationed at ' East Burnside street and Union avenue and at Grand avenue and Morrison street. "I Intended' detailing 60 patrolmen to the Central station, or West Portland dis trict. Three captains, one in charge of each shift, were to be detailed for head quarters, and a desk sergeant and a pa trol sergeant were to be assigned to each relief. Four mounted policemen were to have been placed on the West Side. Eight officers were to have been detailed as a crossing squad, and I would have had. a policeman at every important corner In the business district. It would have been - an ideal police force, but funds were not sufficient to warrant the extra number of men. Before Portland has first-class pro , tectlon and the police work Is attended to rightly, however, funds will have to be provided for Its maintenance and for suf ficient officers to do the. work." . it E" COLONEL, A,. W. MILLER GIVES INTERESTING LECTURE. Speaker Declares That the World la Dominated More and More by Intellect In Modern Times. An excellent address ' on th subject "What Science Has Done for Man," by Colonel A. W. Miller was tha feature of last nljrht's meeting of the Oregon Acad emy cf Science held at the City Hall. He paid in part: The world today is dominated more and more by Intellect, which has been slowly advancing among tha people through scien tific discovery, as there is no problem which scientists dare not attract, though ancient and long-Axed optntons are slow to eradl- cat, and it requires courage to make the rlorlous ascent from brute ignorance up to human Intelligence, for we are no longer taking appearances for facts, nor words for acta, nor Imagination for reality. We rec ogniie only the eternal domain of con science and the external domain of obser vation, excluding everything pertaining tn m trades or mystery, but. relying upon science to gently guide us in the ways of truth by enlightening our mind and illu minating our pathway with a light that cannot be eclipsed. 6 he thus elevates our OOauOt M iUttBV U above the fcgxbarlaji DID YOU EVER SEE THE GREAT MELVILLE CLARK APOLLO PLAYER-PIANO THE ONLY PERFECT INSTRU MENT NOW.
