MORE POLICE WANTED
MOUNT EDEN REQUEST “NIGHT PATROL NECESSARY” That more police supervision was necessarv in the district was stressed by the Mayor, Mr. E. H. Potter, at last evening’s meeting of the Mt. Eden Borough Council. Correspondence in this connection was received from Mr. D. Smith, who stated that liis premises on Mt. Eden Road had been entered by burglars five times recently, and a chemist’s shop had been broken into for the second time last Friday. A request for a night patrol had been sent to the superintendent of police, as the local policeman was on duty all day, but the department had de-i murred on the ground of expense. The Mayor stated that the council had been advised that the question of increasing police surveillance on the two main roads was receiving attention. The population of the district was 30,000, said the Mayor, and more police control is an urgent necessity.
