Anarchist brown
works FOR Church
Causes Stir By Starting Cam
paign For Completion OF
Arden Edifice
OUTCOME OF MOVE
TO BEAUTIFY COLONY

George Brown, Arden's anarchist,
has started a campaign for the COM
pletion of the Arden church, the foun-
dations of which were laid some
years ago at cost of about 5000.
Brown says he favors the church
building because the present site has
been left in an unsightly condition.
Trustees Of the colony on various
occasions recently have invoked
clause in the Arden leases, which is
to the effect that when a majority
of lease holders decide a lease holder
has Objectionable or unsightly build
ings on his lands he must remove
them or render them slightly In
other words, Brown contends that
what is sauce for the goose is sauce
for the gander. Frank stephens, a
trustee is the lease holder for the
land where the proposed church is 10
stand In speaking OF the trustees
action today one Ardenite said:
During the early days of the
colony, when II was hard to induce
people 10 take up holdings many
humble shacks were constructed,
many of the colonists living in tents
OF shacks built of dry goods boxes or
other cheap materials.
But with the advent into the
colony of people of means. who
wished TO put on a good front the
quality of the houses and bungalows
improved Several substantial houses
we're built out OF money loaned the
trustees by Mr.. Fels and then Frank
B. Downs. a Philadelphia business
man, erected in Arden an elaborate
home said TO have cost about $4,000.
With the advent of these "citihed"
structures sentiment began TO grow
in Arden against the more humble
and less imposing shackg of Arden's
pioneers. They were not in harmony.
Ardens upper-ten, claimed with the
new and more modern structures.
The single tax II is claimed by its
exponents will force land into its
lest use, and It was claimed that
those who we're not improving their
properties we're not making the best
use OF their land.
LAS a result the trustees have on
several occasions notified lease hol-
ders that buildings on their lots we're
Objectionable and must be removed
or improved as provided in the lease.
Letters we're sent to several Of these
lease holders. A. N. Tevis. Frank
Harrison. Clerence Buck, and they
we're notified that they must remove
or improve the structures on their
lots Brown and other residents

and are retaliating by demanding

of about $500. but which is now
