Inspector Parsons made an inspection

caused by the saving in two of one OF

The bureaus report, said. in part,
VERY little effort is made TO compel
building wreckerS to keep down the
dust incidental to this work. We have
visited several razing jobs in the last
two weeks and found dust blowing out
over the street adjoining property IN
such quantities as to constitute de-
cided public nuisance.
while it is believed that regulations
give the inspector of building complete
authority TO supervise all razing opera
tions carried on under permits issued
by him. we are of the opinion that they
should be revised and aInplified to con-
tain a special section on razing which
would more fully prescribe instructions
and restrictions necessary to insure
safety and protection from dust"

SUNDAY PRACTICES
IN D. c. ATTACKED
Influence of Sabbath ~DeSer
Grafton Here Worldwide,
Reform Group Head Says.
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
PITTSBURGH, December 3.-There
are few places in America where there
is so little regard shown the sabbath as
at Washington" Rev. r. H. Martin,
D. D., of Pittsburgh, president OF the
National Reform Association, declared
in an address here yesterday. THE In
f1uence of this sabbath dissertation is
Nationwide, even worldwide" he con-
tended.
Speaking at the sixty-fifth annual
conference of the association, DR..
Martin said Sunday was the big day
for the commercialized amusement in
terests of the Capital" that many
stores are open" and 'much unneces-
sary labor and business axe carried on
this day"
The District of Columbia, he con-
tinued, had no Sunday laws, such as
have all the States, ito protect the peo-
pie and their right to rest, and If they
desire to do so, to worship God" =
AS a result, he said, selfish COM
mercialized interests have crowded in
upon the day."
The minister said the responsibility
did not rest upon the people of Wash
ington because Congress enactS the
laws for the people of the District, and,
therefore, the responsibility rests upon
Congress and ultimately upon the
Christian people of the 48 States from
which the Congressman come"
The Rev. William Parsons, D. D., of
Pittsburgh, in the conference "key-
note" address, said it was the aim of
the association to obtain reasonable
sabbath laws in every State and the
District of Columbia.

Agencies, by co-ordinated activities, are
looking to the future and, while not
neglecting the relief of existing sitlIa-
items, are particularly interested In pre-
ventive measures. It is one matter to
raise $1,000 for care of the blind. 1t
is another thing to raise 81 900 to pre-
vent folks from becoming blind and
thus save the necessity for relief work
in the future. Here is where the work
Of the Council of Social Agencies comes
in. 1t is reaching torward-determin-
ing the causes of poverty in Rochester
as well as means to alleviate the pow
erty. Money is being spent as an in
vestment.
More than 1000 workers were en-
gagged in the campaign this year. They
included some of the foremost citiZans
of the city. who solicited funds as pri-
Yates in the ranks, and all we're re-
quired to make good. Those who did
not will be dropped from the list for
next year.
The Community Chest collects 81 per
cent of its pledges. This, says Mr..
Wareheim, is no fancy figure adopted
for advertising purposes. but is reached
with extremely rigid accounting. A
pledge never is written of as uncol-
lectible. even after the pledges is dead.
AAC CAAolSc ID SILL carried against MS
estate. After two pledges have apoar-
emily been disregarded the person is
not pledged again. but is billed year
after year until he pays Thus a few
thousand dollars were received this
year from pledges made in 1919. There
are few in Rochester who want to ap-
pear as dead beats before such a body
OF representative citizens as constitute
the directors of the Community Chest.
I Pledges made by the employees of stores
or manufacturing concerns are collect
ed by the concerns in the form of de-
| auctions from the pay envelopes.
The success of the Rochester Chest.
says Mr.. Wareheim, is due largely to
the prominence and spirit of the man
behind it. 1t represents no individual's
fad or fancy, but the conservative.
trustworthy Judgment of the foremost
citizens.
