.PAlR OF MEASURES
PLANNED TO GUARD
YOUNG PEOPLE
COUNCIL PROVIDES FOR lNsPEc-
TON OF MOVING PICTURE THE
Alters AND BARS BOYS UNDER
1s FROM POOL ROOMS.

Two measures intended TO safeguard
the young people of Detroit. one ply
sically and the other morally. were
passed by the council Tuesday even
ing. These were the ordinances gov
erning pool rooms and moving picture
theaters.
Both will be licensed. The theaters
will be inspected to see that they are
safe. The. pool rooms will be forbid
den to allow boys under Is to loiteT
about them. The police have said
that large share of young crooks get
their training by loafing with tough
boys in pool rooms and similar places.
Other than the passage of these two
ordinances, which take immediate ef-
feet, council did little business. The
only excitement came when President
Rose tried to keep the members and
visitors from talking.
The commissioner of public works
reported that the appropriations had
run short on a number OF resurfacins
Jobs. the total being $2,349 and he
asked permission TO shift money FROM
SURPRISES In other street funds. This
was granted.
The health board requested that the
100000 of bonds for a contagious
disease hospital be issued al once
and the council took the necessary
steps to get this procedure started.
Appropriations amounting 10 $1,000
were also made to piece out depleted
health board funds.
A noticeable feature OF the meeting
was the number of resolutions per
hitting property owners to build Their
own cement walks, nearly every ware
having one or more.
Hereafter the department of public
works will not lay walks until prop
erty-owners whose walks are con-
demned have had hearing before n
council committee, this being one OF
the provisions of the new ordinance.

just like that.
