To protect these youthful users of the public streets and highways, the Association of Casualty and Surety Companies, at the request of state and municipal government officials throughout the nation, has announced the completion of a model plan for the organization and operation of a bicycle safety program on a community level. According to Thomas N. Boate, manager of the Association's Accident Prevention Department, the program provides for the proper education, training, and testing of bicycle riders and the inspection of bicycles to detect unsafe conditions. The plan is explained in a booklet entitled "A Community Bicycle Safety Program." After describing how such a program can be established and maintained, the booklet explains the roles played by city legislators, traffic engineers, police, schools, students, parent groups, civic and business organizations, public information media and others. It also gives information on testing, registering, and licensing cycles and cyclists—and reprints in full the model bicycle ordinance suggested for municipal use by the National Committee on Uniform Traffic Laws and Ordinances. "There are more than 20,000,000 bicycles on American streets and highways today," Mr. Boates said. "As a result, every community, large or small, is faced with a bicycle safety problem. The best way of solving it is through a communitywide bicycle safety program. Such programs not only reduce bicycle accidents and control the problem of lost or stolen bicycles, but they also help develop constructive attitudes in youngsters which will make them better automobile drivers later On. The booklet is not available in quantity, but single copies may be obtained at no cost for use in establishing community programs. Requests should be addressed to the Accident Prevention Department, Association of Casualty and Surety Companies, 60 John Street, New York 38, New York.

April - May, 195 POLICE AND PEACE OFFICERS' JOURNAL Page 13 RIGHTS OF PRESS DURING RIOTS The first opinion in the history of the city of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, clarifying the relations between police officers and news photographers and reporters during emergency situations, was recently issued by City Solicitor David Berger. In essence, it holds that the freedom of the press provision in the Federal Constitution guarantees newsmen their newsgathering rights even during emergencies. "Meaningful freedom of the press includes the right to photograph and disseminate pictures of public events occurring in public places," the opinion states. It adds that physical abuse of news personnel by a police official can constitute "an extreme form of censorship." On the other hand, it holds that the police are under no compulsion to assist news personnel to secure news when such help hampers them in performing their duty. NEAR-RIOT The opinion stems from an incident involving a press photographer during an Adlai Stevenson speech at the University of Pennsylvania Palestra during the recent presidential campaign. While helping to restore order during a demonstration or near-riot, a police of- Coast Counties Land Title Company L. L. DEWAR Executive Vice President Monterey Salinas ficer accidentally or deliberately shoved the photographer, a staff member of a Philadelphia daily paper, against a wall. The incident prompted Police Commissioner Thomas J . Gibbons to ask for legal advice to clarify the respective rights of the police and the press during riots, demonstrations, arrests, and like circumstances. The City Solicitor replied in a threepage opinion, believed to be the first of its type ever issued in any major American city, as follows: FORMAL OPINION No. 196 CITY OF PHILADELPHIA, LAW DEPARTMENT You have asked coy opinion regarding the respective rights of the police of the city of Philadelphia in maintaining law and order and of press photographers performing their work with complete freedom of the press. This request was precipitated by an incident occurring on October 31, 1956, at the Palestra of the University of Pennsylvania during a political rally of the Democratic Party. HECKLERS Busy It appears that during the televised speech of Adlai Stevenson, Democratic candidate for President of the United States, a vociferous group of hecklers attempted to interrupt the proceedings by displaying a banner, shouting and other wise creating a loud disturbance. Especially since great sums of money were spent for the national television program, the rude and inexcusable interference with Mr. Ste- Tampico Kitchen JULIO AND OTILA GOMEZ Mexican Food In Real Mexican Style MEXICAN FOOD - BEER Eat Here or Take Out Phone GA 3-2651 107 RIVERSIDE AVENUE SANTA CRUZ, CALIF. SWISS - AMERICAN FINE WINES & FINE LIQUORS Guido Borradori, Prop. venson's speech was hotly resented by the large and partisan audience in the Palestra. This created a condition threatening to incite violence or even possibly riot in an overcrowded hail. It was only natural, therefore, that police were called to quell the disturbance. Police intervention was opposed and a certain amount of force became necessary to remove the demonstrators from the hall.
