ViE WANT OUR_ MARSHAL A
Suddenly, out of a mottled sky, comes
word of UeS.Deputy marshal wayne haldrip*s. ••
termination of employment! . /
Mr. Waidrip, the enforcement officer
here for several years, handled this dif- (
ficult job v/ith thoroughness and efficiency;
keeping law and order over more square mi&B
of country than three officers would erdin
arily be allotted* <
\ire Waldrip is a d->t> .. :ad family nan, a
sportsman and a communi u,/ leader, tut of
even more importance to the go-ernmcr.t
which employs him is thcv fast that he i*
a dependable and capable officer wh* n«Tnr
lessens the prestige of his office by lack
of courtesy and consideration* Ho proceeds
through his official duties of enforcing
the loiter of the law with a✓natural dig
nity and a sympathetic understanding of
the participants in each regrettable sit
uation* And, this gentlemen has always
shown a loyalty to his superiors not often
found any more*
It is because of these characteristics
that the people of Dillingham have taken
the only recourse open to’ them to express
their displeasure at ousting Wayne from
office. If this were being done because of
a political issue due to a change of party
it would be understandable; but it is not.
This is apparently an attempt to appease
a personal grudgel
