Notes
Original Toronto Star caption: Toronto harbor is a working place; not a playground; longshoreman Jim Hanlon says. Metro Chairman Paul Godfrey would like to see the harbor accessible to the public; with places people could watch ships being unloaded - but the Harbor Commissioners are more interested in efficiency; and that means keeping the fun-seekers well out of the way while work goes on.
