Inspectors would coordinate three divisions with three inspector captains supervising patrol criminal and traffic chiefs. The plan aims for 24 hour availability with captains setting hours though no extra salaries. Police Chief Trizna criticized the plan noting 1957 crime and traffic declines and said he was not invited to the meeting.

Mayor urges licensing rules for wrecking firms
Mayor James P. Hennessy asks the city council to pass an ordinance requiring licensing and bonding for firms dismantling buildings.
