But officials acquiesced to the community's insistence and Bradford's persistence. The Associated Press WASHINGTON — Community crime fighters have hit upon a simple but effective weapon in the battle to keep their streets safe — the neighborhood newsletter. The brief, monthly publications become focal points for community policing efforts, informing neighbors about trouble spots and opening communication between residents and police. "Some neighbors don't know what's going on. You need some way to communicate," said Savannah, Ga., Police Maj. Dan Reynolds. "This provides a vehicle for communication from neighbor to neighbor." "The argument I made was, how can the community make the right decisions if they're not given all the facts?" Bradford said. "The whole program hinged on the fact that we had to be honest with people." From Savannah to San Diego to Lowell, Mass., residents have found detailed crime information helps increase cooperation with police and target anti-crime efforts more effectively. quality residential community, and we want it to hostile to crime," said Mary Harcar, who helped start a newsletter in one Capitol Hill neighborhood in Washington. "A lot of people move in and out, and they need to be made aware that it's a great neighborhood, but you have to keep on your toes," said her husband, Peter Garcia. "We want this community to be a The first edition of "Beat 25" was published in June 1994. Like five other neighborhood newsletters on Capitol Hill, it adopted a patrol beat as its area to fit the police structure. The newsletter was printed free by a local company. As volunteers delivered it door to door, it increased interest in monthly meetings and turned out recruits for a neighborhood watch program and a citizen patrol that walks a beat Thursday nights, never far from the glow of the Capitol dome. Some worried that detailed erime information would scare people bia's community policing initiative in a single Capitol Hill beat in 1900. away from the Hill. But, Harcar said, she and others settled on a simple principle: "Knowing is better than not knowing." The March 1995 newsletter reported a rape in a neighboring beat, several robberies, and a neighborhood watch success: neighbors called police and a thief was caught breaking into a car on a Sunday afternoon. Response to the newsletter convinced Bradford he was right. Suddenly he had ample volunteers to be block coordinators, and residents living in other beats started their own anti-crime groups. It also carried a computerized map pinpointing every crime committed in the area during the past month. "Twenty-six burglaries during January 1995 constituted a record number for any one month in Beat 25," it reported. "At this rate, with an estimated 2,000 households... it would be just 6.5 years before everyone in the beat is a burglary victim. This is completely unacceptable." Such information was not always so accessible, according to Wally Bradford, a senior police officer who began the District of Colum- "When people started finally seeing crime statistics printed — the actual number of robberies, rapes, or auto thefts — the interest grew very rapidly," Bradford said.
