KEEP CITY CLEAN"
 AIM OF DICKSON
Merchants Aske dto Co-op- crate in Making Birming-
 ham CleaneSt City

Many letters commenting the new city administration on the change in the hour of cleaning the streets of the city have been received by W. E.. Dickson, commissioner of streets. during the past few days.
 Under the new policy the street cleaning department goes to work at Il o'clock at night and works until 4 o'clock. It is pointed out that this allows the force to clean the streets better when they are free from traf- fife, and particularly of the large number of automobiles parked along all streets in the downtown section.
 All merchants have been asked to cooperate with the city in it's ef- fort to keep the streets clean, and are particularly urged not to sweep the trash from their stores out into the streets, as has been the custom with many of them. This Is vio- lation of the law and Chief of Police Fred McDuff has issued instructions to his men to arrest anyone doing this.
 MT. Dickson stated that if the trash is swept into the street in the morn ing it will remain there until that night, when the street force goes to work. Dirty streets make a bad im- ore essi on on visitors, it is pointed out, and every citizen of Birmingham IS asked to cooperate with the city in making this the cleanest city in the south.
