WHAT A GOOD POLICEMAN IS
Speaking about a good policeman (not of the one you
can buy off) one should mind his capability of keeping
ahead of the criminals. That is to say, he should have
someone to tip him off so that it may be possible to track
a criminal down, pick him up, search out and haul in. Of
course, someone to sell out and turn in the crook. He
should be able to drag in all the suspects, hover over the
right one, take off after him and finally shoot all the prob
lems out striking out or firing away at him. If the criminal
holes up, he's got to lay for him, go at him, catch and
turn over to the court. In that case it will be impossible
for the guy to stall off the justice and get away with no
punishment at all.
