Council Tentatively
Agrees To Institute
Delinquent Tax Suits

The matter of instituting suits
against delinquent tax payers was
taken up again by City Council at
its regular meeting last night. Aft
er a thorough discussion of the is
sue, it was tentatively agreed to
go through with the procedure as
proposed a few months ago.
1t was also the sense of the
council that about twenty names
Of delinquents be listed to start
with, and others will follow.
1t was shown that an amount
of about two hundred dollars would
be necessary to start the proceed
ings. Due to the fact that the city
has no available funds for this
purpose at present, it was decided
to defer the matter until the next
meeting night when provisions
will be made to take care of this
necessary expense.

HOLD HEARING
ON DAMAGE TO
AUTO CAR HERE
CAR DRIVER RUNS INTO REAR
OF LIGHTHOUSE TRUCK;
AGREEMENT REACHED BE-
TWEEN PARTICIPANTS

An interesting hearing on a
question of traffic was conducted
this morning in the office of Sup
erintendent w. w. Demeritt, Sew.
enth Lighthouse District. The
principals were Miss Gladys Lewis
of Pirates Cove Fishing Camp
and John Roberts, driver of the
lighthouse department truck.
Mr.. Roberts had turned off
Whitehead street on Division and
after going about $50 feet had
slowly brought his truck to a stop
to protect engine parts on his
vehicle from the rain which had be-
gun falling.
Miss Lewis was driving behind
Mr.. Roberts and had crashed her
car, property of Joseph Turpin,
also of Pirates Cove, which she
was driving, into the rear end of
the truck.
Mr.. Roberts said that had he
run into Miss Lewis he would
plead guilty, possibly, but as the
truck was struck in the rear he
could not bring himself to believe
he was culpable, especially as he
held out his hand to indicate he
was bringing the truck to a stop.
Miss Lewis did not see the hand
held out by Mr.. Roberts, hence
did not know he was going to
stop, and the result was that her
car struck the rear end of the
truck and the injury was in
flicted, to the car, but not the
truck.
1t was amicably agreed between
Mr.. Turpin and Mr.. Roberts that
they would go $3.50 on the ex-
pense which would total about
SO. Everybody was satisfied.
Superintendent Demeritt was
pleased and Mr.. Turpin and Mr..
Roberts drove off to arrange for
the repairs being made.

fore City Council last ght seek
ing permission to conduct sight
seeing tours into Key West on
special buses three days each
week.
The council informed Messrs.
Eagan and Barnett that they
would do everything possible to
hep them in their proposal, pro-
vid;ng they can secure the neces-
sary permit for its operation.
Mrs. Knight, wife of William
Knight, who is assisting her hus-
band in operating the scavenger
service, addressed the body. She
complained that certain persons
are collecting trash and garbage
aside from that which is under the
jurisdiction of the city.
Mrs. Knight cited that these
persons are using vehicles that are
not adequate for the handling OF
trash. AS result, much of the
trash is scattered over the streets
as it is dropped from the trucks,
which have no sides. She also
stated that this practice interferes
with their efforts to keep the
streets and alleys clean in addi-
ton to collecting trash and garb-
age throughout the city.
The council informed Mrs,
Knight that they would have this
practice stopped at once, and as
sured her that the city would fur

tive to the contract which was re-

sisted of a dislocation of the neck
vertebrate and it would be some
time before he would be in con-
dition to leave the hospital.
In the case of Richardson the
burns received were principally
about the hands and arms, and it
will possibly be two weeks before
he will be allowed to leave the
hospital, and some time after
that before he will be able to re-
sumo his occupation.

to have the guilty parties brought

Mr.. Cleare said that any infor-

who have personal knowledge of
the actions of the guilty parties
advise him of the person or per-

he will make the necessary in
