A Pessimistic View Of Life In Boston
To the Editor of the Post Sir Have we a police force in Boston or is it on a vacation Our streets seem to be left entirely to themselves so far as city authority is concerned Newspaper accounts speak of a disgraceful brawl in a crowded part of Washington street yesterday that lasted twenty minutes or half an hour before there was any police interference today I witnessed a shameful assault by hoodlums on an old man on the Common at the corner of Boylston street and Park square that was finally stopped by bystanders Not a policeman in sight and so it usually is So far as my observation goes we have one of the most inefficient police forces of any city in the country This added to discomfort from dirt and danger of death by electricity At this time Boston has most of the outward signs of a half civilized city which places her about on the level of Constantinople Faithfully yours JOHN O PATTEN.
