Popcorn Vendors "Stand Pat"
While the board was considering
number OF requests for licenses OF dli
,, fering nature, Alderman Dawson called
attention to the tactics alleged to hay,
been employed by two popcorn yenlers
The matter had been brought before
him by the chief of police. The pan
had been requested TO move from GER
tain sections of the city by the chief
and his request had been met by Hat
refusal. Alderman Dawson had con
suited the city attorney, who had sug'
gested that the police committee, the
chief of police and the city attorney
could deal with the pair If the COM
plant were left to their disposal. Al
derman Bancroft's motion that the two
licenses be revoked was not seconded,
for the clerk explained that the coun-
ell or board had not the right to re-
woke the licenses, since they were ~
sued as common peddlers' licenses. In
the opinion of the clerk, the only re-
course was the city court, where the
offenders might be brought to justice
| for violating the city ordinances.
The complaint stipulated that the two
men had refused to move, whereas their
licenses insisted that they should keep
moving; also they had been saucy The
! clerk expressed a belief that the chief
| of police did not need to come to the
council with such complaint, contend
ing that he could bring the men be-
fore the city court and that the prose
cution should be conducted by the city
attorney. No action was taken.
