The Editor, Sir:

We the citizens of Waterhouse would like to contact Mr. Desmond McKenzie, the Mayor of Kingston, to look into this matter for us.

About seven years now, a man came into our community and built a block factory which is giving us hell with the noise before we wake up in the mornings. We have no peace. There is dust, the sidewalk is blocked with marl and gravel, and so on. When the telephone man comes to fix the wires in the box, he has to stand on a heap of marl to work. When a truck comes along to drop off these materials, no other vehicle can pass until the truck unloads.

We have been to the KSAC many times and no one comes to our help, only promises. so, we the citizens are wondering what they get paid for.

Mr. McKenzie, we came here and chopped grass, because Waterhouse was a forest, and built our houses, paid the Government for the land, and now we don't have any peace. We have been living here for 40, 50, 60 years, and we are old citizens. We would like to die in peace. we can't go on the road and demonstrate. We don't have the strength.

So, Mr. McKenzie, please come to our rescue. we await your help.

if the people at KSAC had the time for us, we would not have to write to The Gleaner because you are really doing your job.

Many children are living here, some have sinus problems and some have colds; we have to take them to the clinic all the time for treatment.

Because we are living in the ghetto, no one sees us, but we are decent people living on Australia Road. That is where the block factory is. Can you imagine when there is no water enough to take a bath? When the councillor was campaigning for the election, we know he saw it, but he does nothing to help us, only our vote they want.

Mr. McKenzie, we see the work you have done, we hope one day you will be the Prime Minister of Jamaica.

Please help us to live a little longer even until you become Prime Minister.

If the Minister of Lights was working like you, so many people would not be stealing light and our light bill would not be so high. The Minister of Light needs to come out with his men and go into the ghetto and give these people meters and let them pay for the light they are stealing. They can pay for it. He needs to be stern like you.

I am, etc.,
