<br />COMMUNICATION
<br />Mr. Stanley C. Korpal, South bend, Indiana.
<br />President of South Bend City Council, December 6, 1946.
<br />City Hall,
<br />South Bend, Indiana.
<br />AN APPEAL TO THE CITY COUNCIL OF SOUTH BEDTD, INDIANA.
<br />Once again a woman was criminally attacked and severely beaten last evening in the City of South Bend, before
<br />that a girl walking home from the business district; to say nothing of the numerous similar cases published
<br />in the South Bend Tribune. No doubt there are many not published.
<br />It seems as if the time has come when Women are not safe on the City streets. Perhaps if the punishment
<br />for such offenders was more severe it would discourage such activities.
<br />We are asking you to heed our appeal for ridding the city streets of these menaces to the health and welfare
<br />of the Women and Girls of South Bend.
<br />Respectfully,
<br />(29 Signers)
<br />Councilman Brannan made a motion that the communication be placed on file. Councilman Bishop seconded the
<br />motion. Motion carried.
