collecting refuse which was left at the curbing at the request of the Cham Der of Commerce. The rear of the blocks which had been in an untidy condition according to the officials. received much attention today and presented better appearance. Special attention was given to the blocks as the owners had become negligent in cleaning up the places, it is said. Last year there were two days set aside for the cleanup campaign but in view of the fact that there are a great many out of employment at the present time, it was thought that time could be saved by having only one day.
