CITY VOTERS WILL DECIDE
ON ZONING RESOLUTION
AT ELECTION JANUARY I
Continued from Page One)

Continued from Page One) :
This would then be submitted to the
council.
A Zoning Ordinance should be bas-
ed on a most comprehensive study of
the precise local conditions, both pre-
sent and future, and would be sub
ject to future changes to meet eX-
panding OF changed conditions. One
of the main things such an ordinance
would do, it would regulate the size
and locations of buildings especially
in a residence district, with especial
reference to the kind of property in
the locality, so as not to depreciate
values already established. For ex-
ample, it would give power to pro-
hibit the erection of an unsightly
building for other than residence pur-
poses on the front of residence lot
which would materially damage sur
roundir,, desirable residence proper
ty. 1t could also regulate the erec-.
ton of bill boards, the location of
gasoline stations, community stores,
as to how and where they could be
constructed, both as to the commune
ty and location on lot SO as not to
impair surrounding property values.
1t could regulate the distance of
new residence from the sidewalk so
as to conform to other houses in the
same block.
I'm general, it is intended to be of
material benefit to all of the citizens
who take pride in general appearance
of the city, and guard against those
who have no such pride, and would
stabilize property values permanent
ly. Glaring examples of the need Of
such a measure is very evident to the
observing public in Redwood Falls
and passing of this act would certain
ly be real forward movement"
A. J. White, Mayor.
Resolution
Whereas, by Chapter 176, Session
Laws of Minnesota for 1929, cities of
the second, third and fourth class and
all villages in the state were author
lied to submit to the voters of such

election, the proposition of granting
to the governing body of such city
authority to enact zoning ordinances.
Therefore, be it resolved that there
be submitted to the legal voters of
the city of Redwood Falls at the gen.
eral election to be held in said city
on the 7th day of January, 1880 the
following proposition:
Shall the common council of the
City of Redwood Falls, Minnesota be
authorized to regulate by ordinance
the location, size, use and height of
buildings, the arrangement of build
ings on lots, and the density of popu-
lation within such city; make differ

Mat Miesen, proprietor of the Mic

Gently destroyed by fire, states that
his new building will be up in about
two weeks. The old structure was a
brick building, hence the exterior was
saved and will be repaired. The
woodwork of the building will all be

LARGE WHITE OWL
BAGED NEAR WINTHROP

Last week while A. F. Marshall and
Ed. Julson were hunting near VIM
throp, they winged a large white owl.
1t was large bird measuring about
81 inches from wing tip to wing
tip. Last Sunday Mr.. Julson had the
bird on display at one of the oil
stations. The owl ate seven sparrows
when given meal, apparently swal-
lowing them whole. Another such
bird was recently caught in that vi
entity and may be mounted in the
course of the month.

FIRE DESTROYS CANNING
PLANT AT MONTICELLO

Fire of undetermined origin de-
stroyed the canning company at
Monticello last Wednesday. The fire
was discovered between ten and
eleven o'clock in the morning but had
such Roadway that the firemen were
unable to save the building from de-
struction. The factory had been in
operation this Fall but a very poor
year was anticipated because of a
very poor crop this year. The build
ing was situated near the track and
near crossing, incidently obstruct-
ing the view of autoists at this point
and it was only recently that two
persons were killed in accidents.

Court, speaking last night at Adas

The speaker charged that in

II believe that in the average

declared Judge Cayton. And I
believe far too little has been said
about the virtue of respect. He
urged support Of law and Of Hoo

new D.. G. USURY Law
FORMULATED BY BRIDE
| EGALIZAT|0N
OF PAWN SHOP
POSSIBLE !

A new usury law for the Dis
trict, to be submitted to Congress
for consideration, is being
drafted in the office Of Corpora
ton Counsel William w. Bride.
Richmond B. Keech, assistant
corporation counsel, has been de
tailed to make a tentative outline
Of the proposed law.
Its purposes are said to be- to
so stabilize the business Of loan
ing money on security Of any
kind that reputable business men
will be attracted in greater num-
bers to the field.
Limiting Interest
A greater rate of interest may
be allowed.
The section of the District code
entitled Leaning Of Money"
specifically excerpts Legitimate
business Of national banks,
licensed bankers, trust com
panieS, savings banks, building
and loan associations, or real
estate brokers, as defined by
Act Of Congress.
Its provisions limit the rate of
interest for loans on security to
8 per cent annually, ard the
amount to 5000 to any one per-
son.
Favor Pawn Shops
Police officials have advocated
nberalizing the money lending
laws so that pawnshops will re.
turn to the District, stating that
they operate just outside the Dis
trict line at present, anyway, and
that much stolen property is re-
covered through them.
Eight per cent interest is the
maximum at present in the case
Of parties to a bond, bill, prom
issory note or other instrument
Of writing for the payment of
money. In the absence of ex-
press contracts, however, more
than 8 per cent is illegal.

PARDON IS SEEN
FOR MOONEY

Senator Thomas Schall tR) of
Minnes ota. champion Of Tom
Mooney, serving q life sentence
for murder as a result of the
San Francisco preparedness pa
rade bombing in 1916 today said
that an examination. Of the evil
dence of Lewis Smith in the
Won Bopp case 'sconvinceS me that
the Governor of California can
not do anything but pardon
Mooney"
Since it was disclosed that
Lewis Smith made a death-bed
confession that he, not Mooney,
threw the bomb on July %, 1916,
I have read Smiths evidence In
the trial of Count Frantz Won
Bopp, German consul. The testi.
mony shows that Smith was q
professional bomber and amply
sustains the affidavits Of Smiths
sister, three grown sons and a
daughter, that it was he who
threw the bomb.
81 cannot see how the Governor
can much longer refuse to pardon
an innocent man."
The secretary to Governor
Young Of California, it was
learned was in washington recent
" seeking information at the De-
partment Of Justice regarding
Smith. He was seeking particu-
larly to learn whether evidences in
the files Of the department show
that Smith was III San Francisco
at, the time of the bombing.
