SIDEWALK News STANDS

There are 10000 news-stands on the
sidewalks of Chicago.
The City claims the right to issue
permits for these stands wherever 1t
sees fit
The abutting tenant or property
owner is not consulted or allowed to
interfere.
Moreover the city says what papers
shall, and what papers shall not, be
sold on these stands.
The city permits the sale Of daily
papers only under its sidewalk SOW
ereignty.
No weekly papers
No magazines.
No other publications can be sold.
The city maintains daily news.
paper monopoly.
Now 1t orders the abutting residents.
tenants, business men or property
owners to keep the sidewalks clean
for its City Controlled Monopoly.
The city proves its ownership of
sidewalks by placing its iron waste
paper boxes on them.
IL SitiSCh tiCC iiOht
of his home he ceases to own It.
A city ordinance provides that mas.
much as all sidewalk space belongs to
the city, all trees belong to the city.
The owner is forbidden to even trim
the trees in front of his house until
he pays the city 81 for permit to
do so.
And now the city council has passed
an ordinance compelling each citizen
to clean the city's sidewalk within 8
hours after every storm. Sometimes
there are half dozen snow storms in
"a hours.
From this distance It looks as II
the news.stands will have to go II the
city can make the serfs, beg pardon,
citizens, keep the city walks nice and
clean for somebody else's business
and profit.
