Debate over expanding Indianapolis police force to 100 men
The Official Paper argues the current force of 84 is ineffective due to weak leadership. It urges a top‑to‑bottom reform, modern police management, better records, and merit recognition, warning that simply adding 16 officers won’t fix systemic problems. The piece condemns the superintendent’s discipline and foresees broader changes.
