POLICEMEN'S TEETH IN ESTIMATES
Amid the grim records in the Estimates of the millions of pounds suent last year and the millions taxpayers will have to find this year are lighter touches, which show that, after all, the people who compile these accounts are human. One of the most comforting in the latest Estimates is an item in last year's Police Department expenditure of £2 15s for repairs to an officer's den ture damaged on duty.
