Borough merchants and business men are free with their accusations about the filthy conditions of the streets. Many complaints are being made daily to members of the high way committee by residents of tax payers about the existing conditions. Inability to get men to do this work has been holding up the cleanup program for several weeks, and probably will hamper the operation, of the department all summer. The new street cleaning apparatus as explained by an official, will clean all the streets of the town in several hours. One man will be required to operate the machine and another to sweep intersections and gutters. By using the machine at night it will be possible to clean the streets of the borough while the town is asleep, this committeeman said. >The apparatus sprinkles, sweeps and carries all dirt away in one cleaning. As soon as a load of dirt is swept into the catcher by the sweeper it can be hauled away. The cost Qf the apparatus was not an nounced. The official Said that the matter would lie placed before council at the next meeting. E. C. Henderson, chairman of the highway commit tee. said that the only way that the committee would favor the purchase is to be assured by the company of its delivery so that it can be used dur ing the entire summer.
