tary committee of the Associated Civic

wants and urges all to do:
The Final Appeal.
To the public.
The sanitary committee of the Assoc
ciated Civic societies desires to make
their position clear, SO there rnn he
no confusion or misunderstanding
The committee is composed Of six
teen members chairman and one
member from each of the fifteen
wards.
Each ward member has ward
committee OF his own, aggregating
over 400, and organized as perfectly
as could be expected considering the
fact that we have had but -four days
in which to work out the proposition.
We have caused TO be distributed
throughout the public and some pr-
vate schools blank pledges which
nearly 10000 scholars have Figned.
over 5000 special buttons have been
distributed TO those in grades above
the sixth,
During the week Of April 1915 our
ward committees Will endeavor to col
lect, destroy or remove. such rubbish
as they find In yards, lots or streets,
and to encourage others to do like
wise,
During April II and is, the collect
ing and removing Of rubbish will he
given particular attention, but the linn
tied number of available teams will
handicap us considerably.
We have not and will not guaran-
tee to do any particular job, but will
use our best efforts to cause New Ha-
ven to be a clean city We do not
hold ourselves In any way responsible
for refuse that may he dumped In the
streets or in open lots, by any parties
not on our committee, and we will
not undertake to remove ashes.
Properties that are particularly I'M
sanitary or unsightly will be reported
to our central comittee and every
possible means will he exerted to
cause landlords or agents to abate the
nuisance.
1t is intended the organization
shall continue in force, and through
its efforts some means he devised. to
locate the responsibility for the city's
present condition and II possible REM
edy the defects.
G.. II. SCRANTON, Chairman.
BY T.. l.. Warden. Secretary.
Chairman Scranton reports favor
able progress in all directions, The
little red buttons of the children with
the broom depicted upon them will
be familiar sights this week, he for
tells. His appeal for teams and his
requests that landlords clean up their
premises wherever possible, both OF
which have been printed in this pa
per, have met with satisfactory res
ponse. Mr.. Scranton says that many
landlords have written to him, com
mending him for his efforts and
promising to help the cause along, not
only on their own promises but also
on those of their neighbors That is
Just the sort of response to the APP
} peal that the committee has hoped
for.
