I don't know John. We never locked the doors to the house or the cars. In my little hometown in WV the population is about the same today as it was in 1960 with two city police and one state policeman. Today you can multiply that by two or more and the newspaper is full of arrests of all kind of crimes, but it is mostly dope driven.

I remember driving my `32 Chevy coupe to Washington DC in 1962. I left the keys in it to go in to a store. When I came out a cop was standing beside it. He really chewed me out for leaving the keys in it and said I was very lucky it was still there. That would have been awful!
