THREE JUDGES HEAR
EVIDENCE In TULSA
SUIT,
Fire Ordinance Which
Hindered Rebuilding Of
Homes Put Aside by
Recent Decision.

Tulsa. OKLA, Sept S.--A tempor-
ary restraining order prohibiting the
city from enforcing the ordinance
which Keeps the Negroes from erect
the black belt was granted to r. A.
Whitaker, Negro, the three judges
sitting in the case. In the petition
city from enforcing a fireproof build
ing ordinance in the black belt pro-
per the judges sustained the demur-
rer filed by the city, thus preventing
lures in the old Greenwood district.
Three district judges sat together
in the trial of q case for the first
time in the history of Tulsa county
Vatican Biddison and Albert c. Hunt
heard the motion of Negro property
owners in the burned district for a
temporary Injunction restraining the
city from enforcing the newly. passed
fire ordinance which prohibits the
erection of frame buildings in the
area
early afternoon session was an at
tack by the Negro attorneys, Spears,
Franklin and Chappele, on the valid
ity of the ordinance on the ground
that It was published three days sun
day included, whereas the charter re-
quires its publication three days with
out Sunday to make ii legal. This
point had not been decided by the
should they sustain the objection
and hold the ordinance invalid it will
mean that the Negroes can Immediate

town unless another ordinance is
passed at once.
The half of the district adjoining
the Frisco. tracks is controlled by the
previous fire ordinance and building
will be prohibited there in any event
unless the temporary restraining or
der is granted.
The contention of the Negroes is
that the ordinance requiring the erec-
tion of fireproof homes practically
sweeps them out of the district as
they are not financially able to erect
anything but frame residences. They
urged that they are subjected to foul
weather and disease in the district
at present without any adequate
housing facilities as a reason for the
restraining order.
The question of permitting the Me-
groes to build temporary homes on
the contested acreage came UP.
There is nothing whatever in the
ordnance to permit the, erection of
cials are not disposed to be harsh
or unfair with these people and are
in sympathy with the move to permit
temporary buildings for a year or
permit temporary buildings for
year or so.
II think this court has a right to
permit their erection If 1t thinks well
and proper despite the fact that it is
prohibited by the ordinance"
Mr. Duncan do you think the city
