PUC manager Hugh Davis said recent accidents involving children in playhouses coming into contact with live overhead wires had prompted the Ontario Municipal Electric Association to warn its members against such activites. "I'm not criticizing RAP," said Mr. Davis, "But one youngster was killed and of course, everyone is concerned with safety." Commission chairman Ted Pooley agreed that it would be dangerous for RAP to en- courage such a practice on public property. Mr. Davis said that the PUC crews presently removeany tree houses or other structures which appear in trees near hydro wires and cut off the lower limbs of trees to discourage youngsters from climbing them. Mr. Davis also related to the commission that the 'current postal strike could pose problems for the commission if itcontinueso He said a system of delivering the bills by hand would be necessary in Exeter, He also stated that many of the firms using power in Exeter paid their bills from another location and com- municating with them .by mail was impossible.
