from merchants, especially produce dealers, of outside concerns sending Tn goods in wholesale quantities to this city, .underbidding local prices and thereby ruining markets for To- cal men. He has heard complaints, too numerous 10 mention, of house. wives about the city who have been pestered by vendors calling at their homes and insisting on their cases and arguments being heard.
 In following out q suggestion giv- en to his committee some years ago, the alderman has discovered that in many cities of the state ordinances covering this situation and making these cities closed shops to outsiders, have been in force. He has secured a copy of an ordinance in force in the city of Waterbury. which he pro- poses to use as a model for similar action which might be taken in this city.
 Model Ordinance
 The Waterbury ordinance states
 
 except those exempt by the statutes Of the state, shall sell or offer for salc.- within the city. any groceries, provisions, fruits. or any article of food or any goods. wares or mer- unless he shall have ob- taincd a license to do so from the of police. This sec ton. however, shall not apply to oc- Cupants of stores or shops within the city. Nothing in this ordinance shall be construed to prohibit, or to require a license for, the sale of by butchers. bakers, srocers or other tradeSmen having m established place of business in he city of Waterbury"
 The ordinance states that fees shall be collected and payable to the

tax collector of the city and he will issue proper credentials to those se- curing them. The ordinance requires fee of s5 a year for residents or flor any fraction of a year and $50 a week for non-residents.
 The ordinance then provides that the person, firm, or corporation so licensed shall, on exercising his vo- cation. wear upon his left breast a suitable badge designed by the su- perntendent of police, and carts and trucks shall have displayed on both sides sign designed by the police uperintendent allowing him to car ry on his business.
