PETITION
WANT NO RESTRICTIONS ON
TWO GENE fERIES
TRUST FUNDS PROTECT ROSE.
Dale AND EVERGREEN
Determined Effort to Assert Present
Rights of Lot Holders to Con-
tinued Burial in City
Limits

With nearly 5000 signatures attached,
a petition was filed with City Clerk Harry
Lelande yesterday on behalf of Rosedale
and Evergreen cemeteries, asking the city
council not to take away present rights to
the continued use of these two ceme-
teries.
The cemetery restriction question Will
come up for hearing on Monday, and
both sides of the question will be strongly
represented In the city hall. The lot
owners have retained former City Attor-
ney Herbert ]. Goudge as counsel
The petitions say briefly:
We, the undersigned residents of Los
Angeles earnestly request that your
honorable body do not adopt any or
dlnance designed to prevent the further
use Of Rosedale and Evergreen ceme-
teries.
The suggestion that no new ceme-
teries be established and that no ex-
tension be made of existing cemeteries
Is one which we are content to leave
entirely to the decision of the city
council but we protest against any
attempt to take away present rights to
the continued use of the cemeteries
referred to.
Rosedale and Evergreen cemeteries
are protected by trust funds Which
Insure their perpetual maintenance IN
good order; they are free from any
! unsuitable conditions of the subsoil
and the reports of the health depart
ment show that no sanitary reasons
exist for any interference with them.
They are not and cannot become a
detriment to public health; and to
close them at this time would infiict
wholly unnecessary injury to the feel
ings and interests of very large
number of the residents of this city.
