AN EDITORIAL appeared in" these column* on Jtiljr 7,
*» 1*957. under the heading,."Chief Scholer: Hard Man
to Figure.'*
Tha editorializer, of course, was referring to Police
Chief George W. Scholer of the city of Columbus,.a hard
man to figure then and just as hard to figure now.
•,   - An Editorial
Here are a few quotes from that editorial:
"Chief Scholer should have known that If the barrage of po-
Hoe brutality charges that have piled np at he and Inspector
Harvey Alston's doorsteps these past several years continued to
mount eventually someone tn authority in his detartraent would
bt brought to book,
"Yet Chief Scholer has gone blithely on, evicting newspapermen from his office at his pleasure, concocting his owa rules In
eases alleging polic. brutality and denying legal counsel to Individuals brought before bim for 'Inter-departmental investigation'
of cUl* right* complaints.
"We've checked with several public officials regarding just
-taw far Chief Scholer should ge bs hi* apparent determination to
wake bks own laws fas cases where Us* rights of the citlienry at*
tatg* ate involved. ,
"Araasissg as It ma j seem, every one Ot these officials claims
fiaey can da nothing about, or with, the Columbus police chief.
"Does this mean, that Chief Scholer 1* a law unto himself?
"Your guess Is as good as ours."
