To Attend Special j Brigham City, Utah , July 25, 1951 Dear Editor: While driving from Washington, D. C., en route to Brigham City, I noticed with great interest, a series of signs along the just before entering the city limits of Rawlins, Wyo. . ming. The series of signs placed abouf ten feet apart, read as follows: Speed Limit 20 Miles Per Hour. The next sign read: Are You Cooperating? Followed by: Have You Now Reduced Your Speed to 20 Miles Per Hour? . The last sign read: Our Hospital Is Small. After reading the last sign, I would have been ashamed to drive 23 miles per hour through the town. All other cars were moving no faster than I was moving through the city of Rawlins. Any motorist who conscientiously wants to do what is right would have only respect and admiration for city officials hi way patrolmen or any citizens responsible for putting up such reminders. y ' -- f City Why couldn't Brigham residents or city officials borrow such an .idea, change .the speed limit to 30 or 35 miles per hour and enforce such a regu- lation, If officials In charge do not enforce the regulations as stated by - law, regarding speed limits, within city limits, they are just as great offenders as those who break the speed laws. This is my own personal opinion, which hasnt changed' in two years time, when I visited Brigham City two years ago. , that .Also, it is my opinion some drastic measures should be taken to stop the speeding on the highway entering . and leaving South Brigham. A series of signs might help, officials spend but unless more energy on stopping and arresting those violators who drive ike demons and maniacs past Seventh South, the condition will remain the same,- - a disgrace to a pleasant little city whose citizens have become so used to speeding cars, trucks y and freighters that their traf- . ; ; - - .
