The draft of the ordinance Is drastic
in the extreme, and whether or not it

remain to be seen.

penalty for disregarding any provis-

excess of $50. Herman argued that
they were dangerous, and a menace
to life and limb by reason of their
falling, in which case the city is liable
for damages.
Others of the council thought the
measure was harsh, and would result
in hardship, especially to those who
had expensive swinging signs in front

Supervision is Needed.
In voting for the adoption Of the
ordinance Mayor Ingledue said that
he did not favor the ordinance as
drafted but he believed there was
need for municipal supervision of the
hanging and inspection of signs. He
hoped some such ordinance would be
evolved from the one presented, and
therefore voted for it. so that while
the subject was up for consideration
