After reading the letter Jan. 19 by Michael Kincheloe, I say hooray to New York! Hooray to Chicago! It's about time that somewhere in this country some people are doing something about this hideous assault upon our peace and quiet.

In our city and state the problem [of loud auto music systems] exists because of a lack of enforcement by local police and the California Highway Patrol. The state Vehicle Code prohibits operating a vehicle upon a public road while operating a sound amplification system that can be heard 50 feet from the vehicle. Let's enforce it and give Fresno some class.
