cafe washrooms the current civic campaign clean up toronto restaurants was discussed by mayor r h saunders and ontario health minister rus sell kelley last week after the local branch of the canadian restaurant association stepped in with its views the restaurant association ex pressed approval of the objectives of the campaign which has seen several restaurants closed after dis covery of unsanitary conditions but it submitted a brief to civic authorities to the problem and one of them is that restaurant proprie tors should not be penalized for un clean habits of its customers when they visit washrooms insofar as washrooms are con cerned we submit there is a sense in which the proprietor of a restaur ant is to some extent the victim of his own patrons said the brief people who use washroom facili ties are drawn from all sorts of social backgrounds with various ideas of personal hygiene and social responsibility it is not an uncommon thing for restaurant proprietors to find that facilities which they have provided and which are not obligatory by any statute are shamefully abused we know how true this is in stouff ville where public wash rooms are abused by an ignorant set of people who cannot be kept out or singled out mayor saunders said after the meeting with the ontario minister that the provincial health depart ment now is studying overall mini mum regulations
