visions of section nine of Article xxi OF

Acting under the provisions Of this
amendment. the police ordered real estate
signs erected on the parking In front OF
houses for rent or for sale taken down;
and then letters began to pour I'm to the
Commissioners from real estate men pro-
testing.

en-, and the petition, accordingly, was
drawn up and placed before the superior
court by Attorney J. T. Richards The
proceedings will come up before the
court In about two weeks for hearing
