georgetown herald ky hm nwsrmvmiid 33 mln 8irt 9outr gorgfownontano wcmhimww aoh thumday auoust 34lh 1967 editorial comment dirtiest town a mil bag latter this week from har ry mo deals with one of the editor s pet peves the litter of paper tin cant and dobri which make gtrgttown perhaps not the dirtiest town wt of toronto as tie says but certainly puts us in the running for top honours it ik a general fault with north amer- j knsj to deface our nature beauty with en unsightly clutter t no more is this m avldenca than at tthe canadian national exhibition where de- tpite a crew of clean up men day and pight the garbage is deposited willynilly we were at the ex on saturday stopped in t me pure food building and were 10 upset by wading down an aisle of discard ed paper cups wrappers end plates that we beat a hasty retreat to the outdoors jwhere one can at least find a few green patches not despoiled by humans the problem it of such magnitude that it should be included in our education end stressed day after day in our e toman tery schools children are certainly responsible for e great shore of the litter witness any town location where there ii a variety store such merchants need hardly have e shop sign for one can find the store easily if you look et the sidewalk outside but children aren t etohe the culprits we see men toss cigaretta packets into the srrat motorists toss kleenex and banana jklns from car windows leave behind a mess of garbage after s roadside picnic until we reach a blessed state when people don t litter the ony choice a prlv ate citizen has is to pick up the most ob vious and dispose of it himself in commercial areas we suggest that merchants most of whom sweep their walks a couple of times a day gather this up for the garbage rather than ust sweep it into the street to blow back or on to someone else s property too slow ail this seems to be a week when bag writers beat us to the punch but whether charles hildebrandt had tvrritten his letter or not we had intended r comment on the new 30 mile speed i fnit initiated last week on the whole high way stretch through town we believe this is unrealistic for two feasons first very few motorists wiil rfnve the whole stretch at this speed and fnore important there is no necessity for unduly slowing traffic through an area where hazards are at a minimum we refer to th highway portion par ticularly from sinclair road towards nor val with the exception of a few factories and service stations tha area is not yet built up there is no reason why a forty five mile limit cannot be quite safe as it has been in the past and it is here that tha maonty of infractions will occur one cannot be overcritical of either council or police when they take measures designed for our safety but while we can agree in general that better safety should be aimed for on the highwey we do not agree that speed should ba reduced to such a level that it will create a hardship motorists perhaps council in s wisdom w ii aged hlpp ease regulat om alter a short experiment is he goihg to rock the boat in tm mm ir winti fair parade routt extended from plaza to town park
