Bigelow Opposes
Erection of .More
Shacks in the City
, The Indiscriminate granting of per
mits for garages and other small build
ings should be discouraged, in the opin
ion of Commissioner of Public Affairs
Bigelow, who has been defending his at
titude by opposing numerous applica
tions for those buildings before the city
council.
Referring to a petition for the erection
of small buildings near the North Bank
station, Bigelow said such practice
would result in continuing a string of
buildings throughout the city similar to
the objectionable shacks near the rail
way stations.
