Director Gadsden OF the Public Works
Department has begun q crusade In the
laudable direction Of reducing the number
Of useless poles Ia the northern section
Of the city. The director discovered some
time ago that the reduction in the
number OF poles was not as great as he
anticipated. by reason OF the fact that the
Telephone and Electric Light Companies
had put most Of their wires In the busI-
ness section under ground. Investigation
revealed the fact that many poles had
been left standing for the benefit Of other
concerns burglar alarms. district mes
senger police and IRE department wires.
Desiring TO relieve themselves OF the
expense Of removing the poles the com
panies which had gone underground kindly
left many Of them standing where one or
more wires OF other concerns were at
fached 40 the poles. A. many OF these
poles are unsafe, Direction Gadsden has
notified the companies now making use
Of them that they must either remove
their wires and permit the poles TO come
down or be held responsible for the con-
dition OF the poles. This includes paint
ing ara lettering as required by ordinance
