we're making bets about that time that
here would be the biggest shakeup since
Binghsm's day. They didn't guess right
as to the present. but if the bet overaps

Commissioner sent for the inspectors and
stood them up in front OF his desk. They
looked more like bunch OF schoolboys
prepared for "A rebuke from teacher than
anything else. Rapidly the Commits
sioner informed thom why they were

Of being responsible for the lack of In
reference with disorderly houses.
