touch

of

briefly.
"Appointment

sanitary
inspector
was
urged
on
the

with
a
view
to
bringing
about
a
much-needed
improvement
in

Conditions
"The
city
was
asked
to
Improve
street
and
traffic
conditions.
Suggestions
were
made
that
brush
be
cut
down;
that
street
signs
be
installed;
that
more
itop
signs
be
put
In
place;
that
there
be
stricter
enforcement
of
traffic
bylaws,
and
that
the
police
force
be
augmented.
Following
a
conference
with
the
Attorney-General
and
the
Commissioner
of
Police,
It
was
agreed
to
add
to
the
force
and
to
send
Inspector
Hood
to
Prince
Rupert
for
the
purpose
of
carrying
out
a
survey
of
traffic
conditions.
The
survey
was
duly
completed
and
forms
the
basis
of
changes
to
be
effected
by
means
of
a
new
bylaw
now
under
consideration
by
the

"Through

with
particular
regard

So

no

The

Is
In

was
forwarded
to

recommending
the
sale
of
