An Ordinance Violated.

Editor Virginian-Pilot:
A few years ago the City Council
passed an ordinance prohibiting the
placing of signs on poles and trees in
the city, and appropriated money to
have those that We're up removed. This
ordinance is being violated to u great
extent at present. especially in the
West End. Is it not the Street Inspec-
tors duty to prevent this? If so, why
does he not prevent 1t? He can have
no excuse. He cannot claim that he
does not know who is doing 1t. The
cards speak for themselves.
Yours, CLEAN STREETS.
