and the proof of this is that only 104 people have been brought into court in the six years. The hand of the law is withdrawn, and it is only when complaints have been lodged against any particular area or street that the police take any action. Far more is done in other 'There ways to encourage tidiness. are waste ticket boxes on all the trams and wire paper baskets have been fixed on to most of the lamp standards. In addition a good deal ia done by means of propaganda. When the by-law was passed in April, 1928, the authorities took great care that everybody should hear about it. There were notices in the press, and an appeal was broadcast, and the Corporation de- partments were asked to co-operate. This campaign is revived from time to time, and an occasional police court case serves as an additional reminder. In fact,

the whole business has been done so thorough- ly that even Girl Guides and Boy Scouts have impressed upon them the need for keeping the streets tidy. If this means that Boy Scouts in Birmingham pick up a piece of paper a day instead of doing a good deed a day, it might account for cleanliness.

But not quite. For the extra- ordinary thing is that not only is it difficult to find a piece of paper on the pavement, but it is often dif- ficult to find one in the baskets. Where then does the paper go to: in Birmingham? And what bap- pens when a man buys an evening |
