PLAN COMMISSION
HOLDS MEETING
ON ZONINC LAW
Need For New Building
Code in City is Given
Recognition

A double meeting was held by the
city planning and coming commits.
sion last night, during which mat
ters of interest and Importance to
the city's development along build
ing lines were discussed.
The first OF these meetings was
held at the city hall at O'Clock
yesterday afternoon. The purpose
of this was to outline plans for the
later meeting scheduled for the
court house at o'clock. Certain
amendments to the proposed zoning
ordinance were considered as was
also set of subdivision regulations.
The need of new building code
for the city was recognized and
this proposition will be the next to
be taken under serious consideration
by the commission.
The issuance OF a permit by the
building inspector for the construc.
tion OF an apartment house on
Wensley avenue was brought up for
and it was the decision or mat pody
consideration by the commission
that owing to the failure of the city
council to pass what is termed a
"holding ordinance,' to prevent in
discriminate building operations un
til the real zoning ordinance could
be put into operation, no official
criticism OF the inspector a:tlon III
the matter could be made by tho
commission.
1t was pointed out that the build
ing inspector in his WORK must fol
low the laws laid down by ,hc city
ordinance. He has no ditatorial
or discriminatory powers in the
matter of issuing or rejecting per
mits for the erection of luildings
within the city limits. Shuld he
deny anyone a permit to build on
his own property so long as the
city's laws are not infringed upon,
damages can be demanded by the
injured party.
Few Present
A small number of persons attend
tended the meeting at the court
house which was opened by w. j.
Clements, mayor of the city. OBJ
lcctions to the proposed zoning or
dinance were called for and one
only was raised. This was by DIR.
Maxwell, who asked that the dis
trict about Fourth street and
Orange avenue should be zoncd for
| business, basihg his contentious on
the expected expansion of his hos
pital which is located in that sec
ton. He was advised that the mat
ter of hospitals of any class is in
cluded under the provisions of a
special permit which must be OBJ
tanned and does not come under the
terms of ordinary building opera
| lIons.
DR.. Carol Aronovici took charge
of the meeting and answered many
questions and objections relating TO
.ne proposed ordinance.
| This ordinance will probably be
presented, toyether with the >onlnG
plans, to the city council at ITS
meeting on April =, for that body :
final consideration anu it will prob
abb. be at that time passed to ITS
second reading.

CHICAGO, June 24.-If Rotary is
TO realize its proper destiny, it must
be evolutionary at all times, revo-
lutionary on occasions, Paul P. Har-
ris, founder and president-emeritus
Of Rotary International, declared
today at the opening plenary ses-
sion Of the organizations twenty
nth anniversary convention.
When Harris appeared before the
thousands Of delegates at the Chi
cago stadium to deliver his address,
welcome Home to Chicago" he
was greeted with thunderous APP
plause.
He was acclaimed as the Chicago
lawyer who had thought it worth
while a generation ago to bring to-
gether a few Of his business friends
in the spirit of service above self"
a spirit which since has gone
around the world and given Rotary
q membership Of $4,000 men.
AS president emeritus of Rotary,
the lawyer participated Monday
night IN the colorful pageant that
pictured for the delegates the ex-
pansion of the service club since
he gave it its inception nearly a
generation ago.
In a brief talk he laid particular
emphasis on the organizations pro-
gram of spreading international
good will.
The pageant brought before the
assembled delegations an impressive
procession in which Marie Bruce, as
Miss Chicago" led the way across
the stadium arena. She was followed
by surviving members of the first
Rotary Club and their part in the
service clubs founding occasioned
tremendous applause.
Behind came past presidents of
the organization and finally, in pic
turesque native costume, marched
representatives of the sixty-four
nations to which Harris idea has
spread.
