The position of the city in raising a question was characterized as ridiculous and absurb' by the speaker, who pointed to the fact that the park department rents out concessions in an alleged unsightly building only a few hundred feet from the Traut residence.
 Attorney Morris D. Sake. counsel for Mrs, Traut, called on other Bel videre residents who expressed them- selves in favor. Attorney Donald Gaffney, representing Landers, Frary & Clark, said no objection will be made to a personal exception for Mrs. Traut.
 Acting as a committe of the city court, Attorney Le Witt asked a special exception from a 2ofoot building line on Clinton street, so that a certificate of occupancy may be had for building erected by Joseph Motta, now in control of trustee. It was granted.
