of Desires
SEE MENACE IN
GARBAGE DUMP

The imperative needs OF the resi-
dents Of at least a portion OF the
Ninth ward were brought 20 the at
tention Of City Council last night in
a communication read from the
East Central Ninth Ward Improve
ment Company" as follows;
"As the president and representa-
tive specially authorized OF East
Central Ninth Ward Improvement
Company ] desire to direct the at
tention OF your honorable body 70
the imperative needs OF the portion
OF the city in which the members OF
the improvement company above
mentioned reside and own property.
The conditions complained OF have
to do with paving, street lighting
garbage collection and the lack OF
playground In this portion OF the
city.
your attention is respectfully d.
rected 10 the following matters; the
conditions which make paving abso-
lutelv essential to the comfortable
llvinr OF residents on these streets
hereinafter Immediately mentioned;
Twentv-second street from Carter 20
Church; Jessup street from Van
dever avenue TO Twenty-flfth; Carter
street from ,Vandever avenue TO
Twenty-hfth; Church street from
seventeenth TO Twenty-second; the
lack Of proper street lighting and
the need OF arc lights on the corner
OF the streets where AZ present only
gas lights are used or nothing at
all. the lack OF adequate garbage
collection. the condition now being
that the residents OF this portion OF
the city are having their garbage
collected only once week, and
sometimes having to walt three
weeks before their garbage Is coll
ierted: the lack OF a playground for
the children OF this community
Il am not unmindful OF the fact
that there are probably like needs
in other portions OF the city, but /
am quite convinced that possibly no
portion OF .he city is In such serious
need as this community. Play
ground facilities are not available
and II would seem that there is suf-
ficient park land near at hand which
might be properly equipped at COM
paratively little expense and there
BY serve the needs of the future citi-
zens of this portion OF the city OF
wilmington. Furthermore the health
Of this community is in the judg-
ment OF the citizens represented by
me. seriously jeojardized by reason
OF the infrequent collection OF gar

bage. As to proper street lighting
1t need only be said that It Is mat
ter Of common knowledge that for
some time past there has been a
good deal OF lawlessness and disor-
der not only here in wilmington but
In every other city Of substantial
size in the country and the result Is
that adequate lighting is a positive
necessity as a reasonable assurance
against the attacks OF those who are
inclined to prey upon society.
aIt is probably unnecessary to add
anything specific in relation to the
paving needs above referred to. Any
member Of your body who has occa-
sion 10 resort 10 this portion OF the
city knows that the streets above re-
ferred to are at times masses OF mud
and mire making travel and trans
portation so difncult as to be almost
impossible.
I'VE respectfully submit that the
citizens whose needs are here voiced
are iaw-abidinR Milmingtonans who
own property in which they take a
pride and upon which they pay
faxes They therefore feel that they
are fully justified in calling upon
your honorable body 10 hear and re-
dress their grievances. Won't you
be good enough 20 give this com
munication your careful attention
and most favorable consideration
