Safety commissioner lays out reasons behind highway patrol changes
Des Moines safety commissioner Michael M. Sellers argues the public lacks understanding of factors behind patrol policy shifts. He faces criticism from Paul Franzenburg, a likely 1972 gubernatorial candidate, who says morale is the lowest in 20 years. Sellers, 28, proposes restraining per diem for top officers, curbing pursuit cars, and revising promotions while the legislature reviews funding and the impact on 414 pursuit vehicles and patrol operations.
