Regina Morning Leader
May 14, 1928. p.1
Assistant Commissioner G. S. Worsley of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police will arrive in Regina Wednesday from Ottawa to take over the command of the entire West.
Superintendent W. P. Lindsay, now in Regina, will have command in Saskatchewan, bearing exactly the same relation to the Attorney-General that Commissioner Mahoney of the Provincial Police had under the present police system.
Inspector Goldsmith, Provincial Police, is to enter the R.C.M.P. with rank of superintendent, as forecast in “The Post” Monday. It is also now known positively that Inspectors Taylor, Kelly and Tait will enter the R.C.M.P. with their same rank.
Further information as to location of various officers when the R.C.M.P. take over from the Provincial Police June 1 will be given after Superintendent Lindsay has made further progress with organization work now in hand. In any event, it was stated today, the official announcements will be made subsequent to the arrival in Regina of Assistant Commissioner Worsley. Announcement of the fact that Superintendent Lindsay will act under the control of the Attorney-General verifies the report that Saskatchewan will retain control, to quite a degree of the active police in the Province, even after the R.C.M.P. takes over.
