DETROIT
ST. AGAIN
AROUSED

Residents of the Seventh ward have
suddenly become just as excited over
the proposal to erect a laundry in their
midst as the Detroit street folks were
over the old coal yard affair However
there are complications in this instance
which make il three sided affair
Recently the Hammond Loundry GO.
througp Fred Speisle acquired I site
on Michigan avenue between Jessie and
Sohl streets J. D. smith the con.rac-
tor. who was TO erect the building took
out the building permit which as Is
sued specifies store building.

tion of laundry in a residence dis

Of the Hammond council Tuesday eyen-
ing a number OF the angry residents
were present and their spokesman
Ernest F'ricke. delivered a long speech
setting forth the manner in which he
said the people had been tricked
After the councilmcn had discussed
the matter. practically all OF tnem
jumping on the neck Of the contractor
Mr. Smith explained his side Of t. He
says he went to the building commits
sioner for his permit and explained that
il was TO be used as a laundry. He pro-
fessod ignorance Of tho ordinance ToSG-
lating the location Of laundries and II
seems the building commissioner was
unacquainted with the ordinance. Any
way when il came to the place where
the purpose of the building was TO be
specified the city official merely passed
il up as a store building.
No steps were taken to stop the work
until the walls were about four feet UP
and the contractor had invested about
50 600. Then someone stopped him.
A resolution was passed by the coun-
Gil instructing the city attorney 70 IN
vestigate and take such steps as he
thinks right to protect the rights of the
people under the ordinance. Attorney y.
+. Tinkham representing the laundry
company. stated that he believed there
would be no objections now to finishing
the building ard if necessary use It for
a store building.
In October the Circuit Court OF Ap-
peals at Chicago viii act upon the coal
ward suit and determine whether Judge
Anderson was right when he said that
city could not say what a man should
should not do with his own property.
In case the ordinance Is held Invalid the
