ANNUAL 599 Stereo Shop \ Many people have a peculiar idea of "progress." They confuse it with change or growth for their own sakes. All too often, these things represent regress, rather than proâ€" gress. â€" _ S _ I try not to be bitter, but I have a perfect example of that kind of ‘"progress‘‘ right outside my front door. S When we moved to this house, it was on a quiet, residential street, a leafy tunnel of voluptuous maples and stately oaks, with a green boulevard on each side of the street. It was gentle and pleasant and safe for children. | Results? We now have a speedway out front, and you can scarcely risk crossing the street to the mailbox. The squeal of tires makes the nights hideous, as the punks try to prociaim their dubious manhood. The remaining trees are dying because their natural environment has been disâ€" turbed and because they get a heavy dose of sprayed salt from the snowplow each winter. _ The town council, in the name of progress, tore out the boulevard, cut down some trees, and widened the street. Much beauty lost, and the only ugly things on the street, dead cedar poles for telephone and hydro, left standing in their nakedness. Just to complete the picture, there has been a ‘"‘deveâ€" lopment," which is synonymous with progress in many small minds, at the end of our street. What was once gloriâ€" ous bushland is now an asphalt wasteland inhabited by supermarkets, a gaggle of gas stations, and the inevitable hamburger joints and milk stores. First move of the progressâ€"happy morons is usually to cut down the trees, some of them 70 years old, so that they can widen the road. Grace and shade and dignity are sacâ€" rificed to the number one god of North America â€" the car. Tough luck, says you. Right says I. But this is not just a private beef. I‘ve seen this sort of thing happen so often on handsome old streets in pleasant small towns that it makes me sick. "Because of the "development" and its accompanying ‘"progress,"" traffic on our street has quintupled about five times, with the accompanying multiplication of stink and noise. Ranking high among the villains are the "‘developers." In more enlightened cultures, they would be called ecoloâ€" gical rapists. They take a section of beautiful bushland, fertile farmland, or lush fruitland. They send in their bulldozers to ensure that the property will look like noâ€" man‘sâ€"land. They then carve it into 50â€"foot lots and jam in the jerryâ€"built houses, cheek by jowl, give the whole thing a fancy name, spend a fortune on advertising, and flog the swollenâ€"priced abortions to poor suckers who are so desperate for a house of their own they shoulder a mortgage they can never possibly get out from under. In the cities, the same process holds. Potential parkâ€" lands are turned into instant parking lots. Thruways slaughter miles of greenery. _ _ â€" _ This, when Canada has more land that is useless for anything else but building than it can ever use. That is ‘‘*progress." â€" â€" _ _Oh, ‘"progress" has many faces, and many sounds, and not a few smelis. Far below the roar of the overâ€"sized, upâ€"priced cars burning up precious energy as they whoosh down the supâ€" erhighways may be heard the whimper of starving chilâ€" dren. Behind the smiling face and honeyed words of the Public Relations Department can be seen something not unlike a mountain range â€" huge, everâ€"growing piles of nonâ€" returnable bottles, rusting cans, and indestructible plasâ€" tic garbage. And the stinks‘ "Progress‘‘ will take a cool, clean, sweet trout stream and poison it with chemicals and detergents and other toxic elements, because We need the industry."" And the big, belching smokestacks go right on belching their nauseous gases from their rotten stoâ€" machs, laughing hilariously when the government slaps them on the wrist with a staggering $25 fine. ‘‘Progress" hoists, again and again, the taxes on booze, because governments would fall without that revenue, and sets up a cheap and pantyâ€"waist program barely hinting at the evils of drink. ‘‘Progress‘ produces bigger cars that go faster and burn more fuel on bigger highways, the vehicles propelled in many cases, by drivers who couldn‘t handle a crisis in a kiddieâ€"car race ‘"‘Progress‘ taxes everything but the living breath of the working stiff, but encourages the plumpies with the exâ€" pense accounts and the credit cards to go out and live it up and lie and cheat on their taxes. Medical "progress" means turning a great number of adult neurotics into drug addicts by socking the pills to them, and with the other hand giving a stiffâ€"arm in the face to the dirty, sick. frightened kids of the drug age â€" A hfetty dim view of p‘r'ogress" It is, as many people look on the word . Same time next Sunday. please. In the meantime. on guard against the "progress ° people But surely there are enough of us left who believe in the real meaning of the wordâ€"moral, social and intellectual progressâ€"to try to do something about the spreading sickness Waterloo Chronicle, Wednesday, July 9, 1975 â€" Page 13 Progress! 2 Smiley
