Now property owners who paid
the city assessments for the boule-

what all they could have done with
their money at I per cent the past
year.
Orange ST. property owners in

to SS4 for the boulevard. Many
Of them refused to take advantage
of the Barrett law paying cash In
hope Of getting the boulevard soonek
In the meantime the surface q

The same Situation prevails all
along Pleasant Run, where property
owners say they are beginning to
believe nothing viii be done for
them.
Bookwalter Promises Action
Charles w. Bookwalter, president
| of the park board, has assured prop.
erty owners that delay in obtaining
forty-five abstracts upon property
between Prospect and Shelby SITS. is
all that is holding up the boulevard
construction. The city has sent a
ten-day ultimatum demanding the
abstracts.
South side residents. 100 strong,
appeared before city council Mon
day night. demanding relief. The
council could not act, but appointed
! Councilman Theodore J. Bernd,
chairman of the park copnittee, to
appear before the park board Thurs
day. At that time, Bernd was as
sured only the abstracts held up pro-
ceedings.
Promises Are Denied
Guaranteed rental for a certain
period to city tenants was denied by
R. Walter Jarvis, park superintend-
ent.
1--WE have not promised these peo-
pie anything" said Jarvis. I'VE re-
paired the houses because we didn't
feel we should ask any one to live
In them without some needed re-
pairs"
Jarvis said he had appointed park
officials to investigate conditions in
these houses and order tenants out
If any were found Objectionable.
Park officials said the city thought
it best to rent the houses and de-
rive certain revenue rather than
tear them down. South siders, how
ever, contend that the houses should
be torn down and the land uesd for
Fairgrounds until the city is ready
to build the boulevard.

was indicated. They have snickered
joked and grinned at a great deal OF
highly tragic details Of the story and
the dafense fears they might act
the same way on the stand and thus
heighten the impression Of cold
-blooded callousness, which has
drawn unfavorable comment.
Giggles and Chuckles
Leopold, slightly the older of the
pair, and a profound student OF
philosophy and ORTHODOXY. sits
cody in his seat-watching closely
each witness that testhes. But to
him It is amusing He giggles and
chucllles with glee when some wit.
ness tells how smart and cunning
he was in evading arrest. He laughs
with a sReer when seme witness
points out where he made mistake
"a mistake that led to his arrest.
Loeb, more self conscious, allows
his eyes to roam over the courtroom
He meets the Steady gaze Of curious
spectators and smiles. He mods TO a
few that he chances to know and
recognizes. He is in the hmelight
and enjoys it.
1t is almost certain these are the
things that Darrow and his staff OF
assistants fear.
There Is no jury-only the Judge
must decide their fate-and they
fear his reaction should he observe
them closely on the witness stand
He sees very little of them now as
they sit with their attorneys-hs
time and attention being devoted
to watching and listening closely
to the witnesses
Can't Deny Act
And a further reason the two boys
will not testify is the fact that they
have admitted killing Robert Franks
tThey could not take the stand ant
deny that. The defense seeks only
to prove them irresponsible for Their
or me and they could not testify tc
that themselves.
The State, meantime. is making
"a pid strides toward clinching their
&c sc of murder. More than three
score witnesses have been examined
| by States Attorney Robert E
Grove, all adding some little bit tc
his mountain of evidence" by which
he hopes to have Leopold and Loci
hanged.
Masses Of mail from all parts OF
the country are flowing in on Chi&
Justice Caverly, on the Franks case.
Som eof them are in a sympathetic
vein but most OF them are openly
hostile to boys.
