aN Zeroing Ino Ro Dist. Atty. Henry Wade Y should have announced cre- 2 O ation of his new public integ- ( rity task force with a great Q) | fanfare. It deserves one. In- —~ stead, The News’ Christi Har- — lan discovered the new sec- \tion in the DA’s specialized N\crime division, through a memo issued by Wade. The section will review problems dealing with cor- ruption of public officials, bribery and election code vio- fa) lations. The past year has seen an : increasing number of charges of corruption within on Integrity local governments. Dallas school district's problems ‘have been well publicized, and both the city and county have had charges of corrup-- tion levied in their federal - job-training programs. Also complaints about election ir- regularities have cropped up again, 8. As recent events have em- phasized, there is an impor- tant role for Wade’s new team. Maybe its very exis- tence will help discourage some of the unacceptable con- duct that Dallas has suffered in recent months.
