' WESTMORELAND'S
RESTRICTIONS
RUN
UP AGAINST
SNAG
Plans of property owners" within
the Westmoreland district to get a
city ordinance continuing the building-
restrictions whichtwere contained
in the original deeds when the prop-
eriy. was piauea, Dut. on which re
strictions have expired, have struck
a mn&g.
City Attorney Grant has advised the
city council that an -ordinance of this
character would have to be general, so
as to ' provide equal opportunities for
protection for property, no matter where
i tutted, when other' "conditions are
similar.
vThe council," says the city attorney,
"could not embody In an ordinance the
restrictions made by the original owners
of Westmoreland addition and make
them specifically apply to Westmoreland
only." He says, however, that the coun-i
cil has power to establish a soning dls
' trict that would give the desired results,
and the matter was referred back, to the
commissioner of public works so that
. a ronlng district , can be worked out.

warned the English not to pay any at
tention to resolutions of sympathy in
the United States, saying a lot of Jack
asses were responsible for them." The
speech was publicly questioned in the
American senate by Senator McCorraick,
which caused -Admire! Sims' reference

On December 3, 1910. Sims delivered
his famous Guildhall speech in London,
in which he declared that blood was
thicker' than water, and that ' if Eng
land ever was threatened with - war the
United States would come to her aid.
Sims, drew a reprimand "for this, issued
by George Voltmeyer. then secretary
of the navy, at the direction of Presi
dent Taft. -
On a previous occasion In 1910 Sims
announced that rules governing target
practice in the navy were, "generally
regarded in the fleet with derisive dis
approval." This was .characterized by
Beekman Winthrop, assistant secretary
of the navy, as "insubordinate in
character, disrespectful to the depart
ment and your commander-in-chief." :
. Under the Roosevelt administration
Sims received a sharp letter of then
Secretary of the Navy Metcalf, Inquir
ing about a magazine article which
criticised the navy and was believed to
have been inspired by Sims. The inci
dent was dismissed, however, at Roose
velt's direction. . ,
