their forum have a ' rocky, road in
fcroepect., Chief of ; Police Jenkins is
to start a roundup at once, and these
men are to be gathered in and will be
set at the' task ' or cleaning up city
properties.' It was so ordered by the
city council, in adjourned session this
morning, vwhere the cleanup of city
owned properties was a matter of spe
cial consideration.
' "Let us clean up our own front yard,
and then swear out warrants for the
arrest of all others who have not com-
-plied with the lot-cleaning ordinance.
Let s put this lot-cleaning campaign
through, even If we have to arrest
scores of prominent citizens and tax
payers," declared Mayor Baker dur
ing the course of the discussions. "
The result of the meeting "was that
the park department Is to clean up
properties under its control ; the fire
department is to do the same ; city
prisoners are to be used for brush and
weed cutting on lots owned or con
trolled by the city where the growth
cannot, be burned off directly, but in
cases where this can be done, a corps
of men from the fire department will
burn off the lots.
i (At the same time, owners of proper
ties where i there . is underbrush -and
which give, hiding places 'for degener
ates who have been attacking women
aiK girls, are to be forced to clear off
the brush or suffer arrest.
i It developed at this meeting that, the
city has posted 102 of its own lots for
cleaning, and that there' are upwards
of 4000 lots under its ownership or
control, taken over for assessments or
taxes. These are to be cleaned up at
once. At the meeting were representa
