DEMAND INITIATIVE
Protestants Against crematory Want
People to Decide Question, but
Lack Sufficient Signatures

A petition bearing the names of 1000
voters has been filed with the city
clerk asking the initiative clause in the
charter be invoked to protect the peo-
pie OF Pico Heights against the estab-
lishment of the crematory near Rose
dale cemetery.
The petition has but half the sigma
lures necessary to compel the council
to call for the initiative election, but
the protestants have ten days more
in which to secure signatures before the
clerk can present the petition to the
council, and they declare they can
secure the extra 1000 names in that
time.
1t is stated. however, by the time
the election is called and the question
settled the crematory will be COM
pleted and if the election should re-
suit favorabIy to the Pico Heights peo-
pie they could secure no redress in this
particular case.
