Of Misrepresentation 10 On.
Alderman Henry Curran at the second
hearing on IA new ordinance To regulate
billboards and other signs to-day
charged that the o. J, GUIDE and the
Van Buren, Companies control at least
ninety per cent. Of the billboards In the
city and that. under the conditions,
these companies may be said to be a
trust with all the trsits and character
istics OF an unlawful combination. He
added that the Attorney General Of the

defined what u trust was and that
probably In the near future the Board Of
Aldermen would have time to look into .
