What reading level is City Problems book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Small boys think of the patrolman as their natural enemy and the station house as a place of terror. If government is fair and just no one but a law-breaker needs to fear the officers of the law.
A policeman is appointed to help the people, not to persecute them. But the power with which a po- lice officer is entrusted by the community is so great that there are strong temptations for him to use it for his own gain. Sometimes people are willing to pay a great deal of money for protection in an ...ille- gal business or in a violation of a city ordinance.
There is a wrong feeling among some citizens that a policeman has a right to use his power for the benefit of his friends. Even if open bribery is not practiced, the people seem to expect that "pull" and Life, Property and Good Order 41 "influence" will enter into the relations of the police officers and the people.
All this is the fault of the people themselves. The policemen are the people's servants. Every citizen who is willing to get a special favor for himself or use the officers of the law for his own unfair advan- tage helps to make government bad and the police administration unequal and oppressive.
