The incumbent county commissioners also won reelection. Looking Ahead Various agencies of city, county and township government are now looking towards the future, and planning their budgets for next year. Now is the time to figure out what increases are needed, and what budgets should be pared. One budget that needs serious study is that of the city police. First, the salary fur both men and chief is very low, as is the city firemen s salary. * When common laborers and ditchdiggers can make more money than trusted city officials who place their lives in jeopardy by reporting for work daily, something is wrong. Another thing needed in the police budget—an allowance for modem police equipment. Our policemen are plenty intelligent. However, they do not have all of the equipment used by other departments. For example, suppose a false check is received by a merchant. In modern police departments, copying machines are on hand, and the police officer makes as many copies as is necessary and malls them out to various state and federal agencies for a check on the handwriting, and to see if similar checks have been passed. But the Deqatur department has no machine. Police officers hand the check over to the chief of police who must then approach some other office of the county government, or an attorney, and pay to have facsimiles made. This is time-consuming and valuable time is lost. Budgets should certainly be kept realistic. However, by starting early on budget study, it is often possible to pare off a dollar here and there, from less necessary services, or where a surplus exists,, and add it to budgets that are top low.
