"Never Ln the history of Char- lottetown has speeding reached the proportions that it has at the pres- ent time," Coun. R. C. Chandler stated last night at the regular meeting of the City Council. He cit- ed the need of "more drastic alc- tion" in this respect adding that if the Police could not catch moole than two speeders in a month, which was stated in the Police Report, their" were not “worth their pay."

The nccd of forming a Salvage Corps in tllc City was also stress- ed during a discussion on the fle- cent destructive fire which de- stroycd the Agriculture Hall. Other matters discussed were: The seiz- ing of automobiles for arrears in personal property taxes; the mat- ter of financial support to the pro- posed Air Cadet Unit; and child- ren creating ciisturbances around the city at night.

Discusing the matter of speeding in the City, Coun. Chandler charg- cd that drivers of taxis and delivery trucks. as well as others who did not own the vanicles, were the worst violators in this respect. He did‘ not consider a $1. fine, stated in the police report, was suffic- ient penalty. He Wondered if the police could be empowered to seize the curs.
