DUNN, Editor Tackle Another Problem? A remarkable change has taken Street and adjoining areas. It is no street it was several weeks ago. Citizens of Tooele are certain to students, business and home owners place along West Vine longer the dirty, littered appreciate the efforts of and city employees who have made the change possible. THIS PARTICULAR PROBLEM area has now been cleaned up. How long will it remain that way? Community pride will determine that. WHAT ABOUT OTHER DIRTY AREAS in Tooele? Will it be necessary to these in the newspaper to get them cleaned up? Th's too remains to be seen. A problem soon to be tackled will be the mess along the road going from Tooele to the C.ty Dump. Boxes, papers and refuse of many kinds are scattered along the shoulders of the road and anaht the bordering fenres. ALL CITIZENS TAKING REFUSE to the dump should place the refuse in covered containers or place a tight fitting cover over trailers and truck beds. People who observe littering by others should report license numbers to either of the three law enforcement agencies or to Jhe Tooele County Health Department. The cooperation of all is needed to clean up another dirty mess in and near Tooele. FRANK ARNOLD, County Sanitarian pin-poi- you ever see a email town with The tulins, so many trees? daffodils, forsythia and fruit trees were in bloom. There has been a riot of flowers ever since. The town was and is to me; which only beautiful proves that one see what one looks for. Yes, downtown Tooele needs a face lifting and moderation. But a few of the stores have nice new fronts. I think what they need is a Merchants Association to work together toward that goal. The business district as it stands todav belies the beauty of our residential areas. But our visitors and new comers usually see down town first and first impress:ons have a way of staying with us. I too pick un little from the new home construction but I dont think the workers just threw it to the wind so someone else would have to nick it up. With the strong winds it is very difficult to hod everything down. If Mr. Transfer faswas living in a make-shT- t hion waiting for a home to be built he might welcome a litM? construction. I alco have nicked up mountains of tumble weeds - whom do I b'ame for them? If we look at them closely they even have a kind of brauv. If Mr. and Mrs. Old Timer and Mr. and Mrs Tranferee will work together, instead of trying to shift blame, we can make Tooele the Show Place of Utah. Lets try.

I dont know why he felt his toes had been stepped on. I too was transferred h"r; and no one has blamed me for any of Tooeles growing pains. Everyone has been very nice, friendly and helpful to me since I arrived.

M. for more grip... more miles per $ I have lived in this city most of my life and loved it. Until now, I have just sit back and never voiced my opinion; but since reading the letters these past weeks in your paper, I'd like to get up on my soap box and say my piece. Yes, our city has become old and dirty. Old because these new people are used to big ' lovely modern shopping centers our town has not needed until now, dirty because of the inconsiderate people who think because it is old it wont hurt to throw trash around. THIS CAN BE remedied and if I know Tooeleans it will be soon, but, when they start knockis ing our police force, then when I reach my boiling point. They can not know these men and still be so sarcastic. These men work long hard hours because they are two men short of their regular force and this is not counting the extra added work brought on by our population explosion.

Y THEN OUR policemen help with traffic during funerals and parades and are expected to sit in court all day if needed Tor this do they get overtime? No. they get their pay on the first and 15th of each month and a lot of sarcasm from townspeople. Men have qu't the force and gone to TAD to fill positions such as forklifter operators. Not a grade 15, but more money than serving as a city officer. Not so dramatic, but just eight straight hours then hoi.ie to the wife and kids. I KNOW SOME of these men have had offers from other cities for better positions, but because of family ties and a dedication to their town and job they have refused. They have tried supplimenting their income with an extra job, but the voices of our city fathers have become more than they can stand. So unless their wife is holding a full time job, they have to live on a low budget. Others yell that they spend too much time drinking coffee at the local cafes, these are usually the men who have to drink coffee to stay awake to fill in another shift or have had to have extra duty and was unable to get his sleep. ANYWAY, HOW MANY desks at TAD have coffee or soft drinks on them all the time or are allowed a good coffee break when they need one? I say if these people would like to pay more taxes to raise the salaries, it would make the job more appealing to more men; or else, the next time the only policeman on duty is out to the airport investigating a break-in- , or out to Lakeview Heights breaking up a family fight, get up off your posterier and get the license number of the cars that are dragging and phone them into the radio-oerator then this dragg'ng cm be stopped UNTIL THEN, stop knocking these patient, thick skinned hard working men of the Tooele police force.
