Description: Pro-Police Typescript Letter to Los Angeles Times, 1957 One-page typescript copy letter, written by E. (Eugene) Walter, Banning California, to the Los Angeles Times/Letters to the Editor, July 25, 1957. Walter is complaining that the Paper does not sufficiently condemn the "inadequate sentences" doled out to criminals -- and that it is an injustice to police officers. Some excerpts:"A recent classic example - a mere 60 days given to a congenital poilice-hating nonentity after deliberately attempting to murder or maim two motor-cycle officers who were in the legitimate performance of their duty". "By failing to encourage and assist our over-worked, unappreciated police in their endless hazardous and needlessly handicapped fight against that vast army of dope-peddlers, cowardly hoodlums, perverts and paroled habitual criminals who iinfest our cities...""May I suggest, with a view to 'Keeping-America-Strong' internally, that less time and space be given yoir 'nattily-dressed' and 'debonnaire' parasitic crooks and mobsters and more attention devoted to the welfare of our worthy police and their families?"Good condition, with chip to bottom right corner and some small holes from where it may have been stapled in the past.
