AIGELTINGER
is DETERMINED
Insists That the Streets
Must Be Cleared
of Debris.

Property owners can expect no great
amount Of consideration at the hands
of the Board of Public Works on the
ground that throwing the debris from
the streets TO the lots viii cause
double expense of handling. That sort
Of an excuse will not stand for a mo-
ment, declare the officials. The streets
are TO be cleaned and the good Of the
majority will be considered as against
what might be to the best interest of
man here and there. Already letters
are being received at the office of the
board making this excuse or that one.
The usual form of request for delay
is something like this: The property
owner writes that because of non
payment OF his insurance he is unable
to clear his lot and that if he throws
the bricks and rubbish back on the lots
il means that ne viii have to handle
that rubbish twice before he is through
with the work. He states also that
he has had no previous notice to clean
the street and that il is rushing mat
ters too much.
All three Commissioners are deter
mined not to allow that sort of an ex-
cuse TO delay the work. Commissioner
Aigeltinger is particularly strong in
his statement that the work is going
ahead. He says that If a man is to be
allowed special privileges il would
render the work of no use. Streets
must be cleaned in their entirety if
the city is 10 go ahead with the work
Il will not allow that sort of an ex-
cuse to stand" he said and l do not
believe the other Commissioners Will
agree 10 il. We want the streets
swept clean Of debris. Business is be-
ing retarded. 1t is no fault of ours
that the people are unable to settle
matters with the insurance companies
1t is TO be deplored. but we are going
10 require them to clean the streets
and they can settle about their insur-
ance later"
Commissioner Eagan is of a like
mind and while President Frank Macs
tretti states that due consideration
should be shown the owners of real
estate he is also Of the opinion that
the time TO clean away the debris has
arrived.
