the houses on Leigh Street
from Third street to Tenth street

Certainly some action on the part, OF
your Department in connection with
the Health Department. could force
the owners Of those properties to
put them in better condition. :.
l passed a house on West Clay

a single window in the entire house.
I feel that al that is necessary is to
call your attention to the matter in
order that you might make a spec al
look over of the situation and find
some way by which the owners of
vacant property can be forced to PUT
them in condition. From a health
and fire standpo mt, many OF these
buildings are q menace to the
buildings and those who live in the
neighborhood
If you find any that we have that
fall in this class. we will greatly
apprec. ate it II you W II let us know
for we VIII not represent any house
that the owner will not Nake the
repairs necessary to obtain tenant
and to make the house habitable

American consumers, says the re
port, pay an average Of 8.55 cents
for a pound loaf of bread. Of this
sum, in the past three years, the
farmer has received 115 cents, the
miller 0.41 cents, the baker 5.11 cents.
the grocer 1.2S cents and the railroads
and other handlers 0.60 cents.
Since the Federal Trade Commits
sion is now STACKED" in favor of big

as the most favorable word that can
be said for the millers, the baking
corporations and the extent of their
mercy to the farmers and the con-
sumers of bread.
