    The News weekly for Today Kansas City, Missouri, March 22, 1935 Single Copy 5 Cents Vol. I No. 11 SNAPSHOTS OF THE WEEK WHEN IS A PUBLIC RECORD? Dictionary definition: “Public—adj., open to all. Record—noun, a writing, printing, entry or tracing made for the purpose of preserving authentic evidence of facts or events.” It was all very puzzling. First there was the matter of the insurance. Mr. Darby, Director of Finance, was perfectly clear on the matter. The public records of the city’s insurance policies were right there, open to any private citizen, but to a reporter they were locked, the logic of the case being that the public records could not be used for any public purpose. We offered, generously, to re- i turn in half an hour, wearing dark glasses and the other half of our dual personality, in short, as a private citizen. Mr. Darby was very nice about it, but explained that he couldn’t possibly show the records to a private citizen as no p. c. could have any conceivable reason for wanting to see them and therefore it would just be morbid curiosity, a dangerous trait in citizens which should be discouraged. It was clearly an occasion that called for a third half of a personality, but we hadn’t been able to discover any provision for such an emergency either in the charter or in the dictionary. It must be one of those stages in the evolution of man that comes with the Machine Age in city politics. This week witnesses the transfer of justice from the river front to its new quarters on the edge of the downtown district.
