Gentlemen: -

: It is with a great deal of pleasure that I
learn the "Shoulder Strap" is about to renew publi-
cation.

Ever since the regrettable death of the late
Mr. A.A. Brookhouse in early 1948, the "Shoulder
Strap" was left without a publisher and the British
Columbia Provincial Police without an official maga-
zine.

Through nine years of excellent service, the
"Shoulder Strap" had made a place for itself in the
field of police and family publications. Serving
both the Force and the general public, a wise and
careful editorial policy had created a magazine
which could be left in the living room of any home
for the whole family to read.

On this occasion of its renewed publication
after a year and a half of suspended operation, may
I extend to the "Shoulder Strap" my very good wishes
for its future success, and for those things for which
it stands, loyalty, integrity and public service.

Yours sincerely,

ee,

Attorney-General.
