MAY BUY MOTOR
STREETCLEANER
Council to Hear of New Appa-
ratuS to Sweep Dirt
From Streets

Highway department officials of
the borough are considering the pur-
chase of motor-driven street clean
ing apparatus in order to meet the
unprecedented conditions due to the
shortage of labor.
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 cutters. 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.
NThe 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 of the apparatus was not an
nounced.
The official said that the matter
would be placed before council at
the next meeting. +. 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.
