A spectacular fire which burned
about half of an 100000 pound
stockpile of waste nylon at the Du-
Pont Nylon plant in Seaford, was
brought under control last Thurs
day night.
The work of a dozen volunteer
fire companies plus the plants fire

A company official said that the
waste nylon does not carry an in

However, Arthur McGinty, plant
manager, explained that some of
the waste is salvagable for repro

but said the loss could not be de-

the storage area is made.
Some of the waste material, he
added, has been stored at the area
for several years..

To Use
Radar Again
In City Limits
Speeding Through City
Streets Must Stop If
Radar Is Not To Be
Used, Mayor Roy E.
Pettyj0hn States.

Mayor Roy E. Pettyjohn OF Mil

unless the speeding through the

According to Mayor Pettyjohn,
the streets where the greatest
amount of speeding is taking place
are North and South Walnut
streets just beyond the business
district; North east and North
west Front Streets and Lakeview
avenue.
Numerous complaints from re-
sidents in each of the areas named,
have been received, and on North
Walnut street, tragedy has been
narrowly averted at least twice
during the present week.
The Mayor slater with emphasis.
that neither he, nor the police COM
mittee of City Council, were anx-
iOus to turn this matter over to
the law enforcement officers for
their handling with Radar, but
there seemed to presently be
no other alternative.
The Mayor, however did allow
a Ray of Hope" shine through
when he stated, that the action of
motorist using the City's thoro-
ughfares in the next few days, will
determine whether or not Radar is
again to be used as deterrent
to speeding.
