said a prominent citizen today. Think
of such an eyesore being allowed to re-
main within one block of the city hall,
and right in the midst of the best resi-
dence portion OF the town.
1t Is a menace to good health, for it

places in the town, and is very repul-
slve to the hundreds of citizens that
have to pass 1t daily, and is in such a
prominent place that 1t is noticed and
remarked about, by every visitor that
comes to the city.
1T is an assured fact that as long as
houses are as scarce as they now are in
Ensley, and the problem of finding places
to house the many foreigners that are
being brought into the town, continues
such a hard one, nothing will be done
toward improving such property, for it
Is bringing good rent and for this rea-
son some step should be taken to force
the property owner to remove IT.
