RAINIER RESENTS OFFER TO FURNISH POLICE UNIFORMS Official Tells A. A. A. for Suits, But Doesn't Have to Because It Has No Paid Force. Towin s Ml 1o Py tion wants us to station a policeman 1n uniform beside a ‘stop’ near the Dis- trict line. We don't think an officer is required to stand there and make the public understand that the sign means what it says. Respect for law and for the rights of others would be enougn to make motorists obey the signal. If they insist on disregarding it, it is our right to arrest and prosecute them. “Moreover, we could not appoint a paid policeman without sanction of the State Legislature. Even if we had the authority we wouldn't pay a man to stay at that sign snd compel motorists to_obey it.” Mr. Keefer said that the offer of the A. A A. to supply uniforms will come before the town council at a meeting tomorrow night. He predicted that the council would refuse it. LATE APPLES DAMAGED.
