City Manager R. B. Riddle Friday recommended to the police and fire committees of the Minot city council that the police department and fire department of the city be merged into one public safety department. Under this plan, all of the present policemen and firemen would lose their identity as such and be public safety men, although while many would operate both in the fire and police fields some would be specialists confined principally to one of the operations.
