BROKEN BOTTLES
(To the Editor.)
Sir, —Is there anything that could be done to check the increasing nuisance of broken bottles in Petone, in streets, on footpaths, and on the beaches, where everyone goes? It seems to be getting worse instead of lessening. Children come to me with lacerated feet and legs, and by the quantity of broken bottles lying around the roads, milkroundsmen's horses are in grave danger of having lumps of glass wedged under their hoofs. A law should be passed prohibiting the breaking of glass, bottles, etc., and wilfully throwing them around the streets and beaches. It is a serious danger to barefooted children.—l am. etc., A MOTHER. Petone, February 14, 1943,
