February n, v8 _ Vancouver face — smudged but it isn’t filthy yet VANCOUVER (CP) -- Vancouver's face is smudged but not filthy a5 a strike by civic workers beads inta its fourth week. Usually-tidy streets in this tourist-conscious city are. cluttered with wind-blown newspapers, cigarette packages and other day-to- day rubbish normally scooped up by city work crews. Dogs have discovered they can easily conyuer plastic garbage bags stacked bigh in back lanes. But that traditional symbol of a civic strike — towering mounds of garbage on the street corner — has yet to materialize. ‘Officials say strict en- forcement of litter bylaws, increased awareness of conservation measures and civic pride are keeping the mess toa mininum. | The strike by more than 10,-000 members of Canadian Union of Public Employees in Vaneouver and nine nearby municipalities has curtailed or halted com- munity services ranging _drom recreation to municipal Sworks, and has affected more than one million "pesidents, <=. Supervisory personnel say ‘ethey have been keeping up “with emergency calls and ‘have the situation under __sontrol. ‘ The strike has left hockey I Fathers steaming over lost “ice time and those coerced “into community centre fit- “Sess classes breathing a sigh “of relief.

Not unexpectedly, city hall has special provisions for those who want to pay their taxes. . Garbage pickup has been halted -in most areas, but fficials say most residents appear to be coping. ‘“The situation is pretty good,’ sald Dave Morgan, city) environmental health olficer, adding the problem is mainly an aesthetic one right now. :- Morgan gleaned valuable lessons from Vancouver's ‘eightweek civic strike in 1972, including the im- portance of rapid and strict enforcement of Utter bylaws. When rotting garbage in Chinatewn’s greengrocer district threatened t en- velop the area, Morgan warned merchants they could be prosecuted. A couple of days later the area was reasonably clean. So far be hasn’t charged anyone under the litter bylaw, which provides fines up to $2,000. One downtown hotel owner had a hard time meeting a deadline set by Morgan. After loading a borrowed truck with refuse from an alley behind his hotel, the owner left the truck long enough for vandals to slash two tires. Adding Insult to injury, a pinhead traffic cop laughed at his demise then wrote a ticket for blocking the lane. Morgan said cool, wet weather has also kept down the smell and it is too early for flies to become a nuisance.

Jom Parks, chairman of the Greater Vancouver Regional District's labor relations commiitee, said ‘ the public is being co- operative, largely handling their own garbage disposal. That co-operation Is considered a form of support for civic government's determination to keep down | wage settlements and taxes, he said. Recycling is becoming a prime conversation topic. One creative conservationist boasted. in a recent newspaper article how by washing, squashing, bur- ning, burying and recycling garbage, she ended up with only one pail of refuse during Vancouver's eight-week civic strike in 1972. She plans to do better this time. Gerald Wiles, manager of MSC Recycling, sald the strike has given the recycling industry a big boost and after finding how easy it is to recycle “many people won't go back to throwing away paper after the | strike." .
