Bulletin is in receipt of a list of the
principles of each party and we re-
gret that they were not received in

of local interest, and present views
aside from those of the editor, they
are published herewith.
Read what these young politici-
ans think should be done in Mount
Joy.
Progressive Party

ods of sewage disposal.
3. Favor consolidation, but at a
later date when prices are lower.
4. Improve water pressure in case
of emergency.
5. The building of a recreation
center for the benefit of the com-~
munity.
Liberal Party
1. Lower Mt. Joy’s taxes by in-
stalling parking meters along Main
Street.
2. Against consolidation—points
have been brought out and already
discussed.
3. Make improvements in the
streets of Mount Joy and vicinity.
4, Make changes in zoning laws or
at least better acquaint the citizens
with the laws.

disposal. Find out why it
been done before.
6. Build or find and modernize a
