REPAIR OUR STREETS

Public Service Director Oops esti-
mate that rains Of last week damaged
Key West streets ''in excess Of $4,000" is
correct, with emphasis on excess
Chief reason for the damage was the
condition Of the streets before the rain be-
gan to pour on. them Numerous ruts were
made. deeper as raindrops beat into them
Some futs are deep enough to break
the spring of an automobile when wheel
falls into them.
Even in the daytime all ruts can not
be avoided by a driver, for if he moves to
the right Or to the left to avoid a series
Of f,lts, he runs into other ruts It's bump
ETY. -bump-bump wherever one may drive
In Key West. .A So So
Condition of Key Vests streets is
worse now than during any other time
since they were paved with brick in 1912.
Indeed, some oldtimers declare the streets
die even worse than they were when
mari, without oil and sand, was used to
surface them. sa
The question in point is not the widee
spread regarding and re-paving of the
streets, which would entail an expense of
several hundred thousand dollars, but to
repair them generally. To attain that end
before the beginning of the tourist sea-
son Of 1947-'4S, more men must be en-
ployed and they must be provided with
more material. 40
But, aside FROM the thought of tourists
who will come to town, the streets should
be repaired for local use. Driving in sum
light when one can see ruts, is bad
enough, but it is far worse at night when
a driver Is likely to break spring of his
car at any moment.
