special meeting of the Randle Highlands
Citizens Association was held last even
ing in the Baptist Church in Naylor road

c. A. Barker presented a resolution for
the consideration Of the members, which

attention to the fact that Congress had
established this company in a building
erected on property donated for the pur-
pose, and giving the residents of that
suburb the full assurance that this fire

no policemen were needed, and therefore
should not be provided.

President 8. E. Snyder expressed the
belief that the provision, if passed. would
be discriminatory, and almost an insult

stated there were more than 100 home in

this protection was their right.
