Funeral Escorts to
Be Discontinued
The Medford police depart
ment will discontinue escort
service for funeral processions
beginning July 1, City Manager
Robert Duff reported Friday.
Reason for discontinuance of
the service, Duff said, is pres
sure of regular police work. He
pointed out that each funeral
occupies an officer and police
equipment for 30 to 45 minutes.
In the 12 month period from
July 1, 1954, to June 30, 1935,
there were a total of 241 funer
als in Medford.
The city manager explained
that relatively few cities in
Oregon now provide police es
cort service for funerals. He
said escort discontinuance was
discussed a year ago and the
current decision followed the
last city budget meeting.
Duff indicated that discontin
uance of a few other services
now extended by the police de
partment is also under consid
eration, but no decisions hive as
yet been made.
