Of the many neighborhood con troversies that liavo arlnen In tho course of years ovfr petitions for changes of zones in residence dis tricts In order to permit tho etnl J (nil m out of some business estab lishment, one of the most warmly i contested In recent ynrs Is that which recently arono in the cltytAf Tacoma, mining engineer for planning commission and city the owners recently examined the council over the petition presented property and has planned the fu to enable L. A. Crane to estrtblinh ture development and operation of a grocery at Eleventh and Peach (the mine. The property has been streets. ... r j In litigation for the past ten years The city Dlannlnic commission. inil was sold by tho court to M. B. by a divided vote, recommended the change of stone, and that rec - ommendutlon wns later rejectod hy the city council. Htill Inter tho council Instructed Its huIhlliiK nnd IlKhtfnif committee, Mesrs. .1". .T. Tluchter, J, O. Oruy nnd E. M. "Wilson, to Investigate and report buck. 1 This commltteo mitdc the following report at Friday nlKht's council meeting without reeom mendntion, whereupon tho council refused to reconsider a reopening of tho question: "The building nnd lighting com mittee, which you delegated to re port on the store situation at "West Kleventh and Pencil streets. looked over tho locnlion Sunday morning and talked with a number of parties interested In both sides of tho controversy. Also nt tho ronuost of Mr. Curry, who runs the store at the end of West Kleventh street, wo visited his store. AVe also carefully looked over Mr. Crnno's plans for tho building while fcn tho ground, and as Mr. Crano was thero ho showed us cor ner stakos whoro tho building would ho placed, which complies with every requirement as to set back lines. Tho committee ap proves the plans as to the type jif building, typo of construction, ct cetera, "We studied Iho petitions nnd cnrefully scanned tho mimes on each petition, also studied tho plan showing the location of the pro posed store and the 30(p-foot rndlus around tho store. It develops that there Is H0.7 per cent of the foot ago In this 300-fuot urea which signed the petition consenting to tho 7.ono change. There Is 1 (I per cent of the footage which remon strates against the zone clmngo and 34 per cent not signed either way. The committee does not feel that It Is within their jurisdiction 'to toct ommend whether or not the siono is to be changed, as this recom mendation has already been made by tho planniiiff commission. The commltteo feels thnt there Is merit' to tho contentions of both sides to tho controversy. Oortnlnly tho remonstratlons hy tho home, own ers whose property directly adjoins the -Htoro locnlion sliould be con sidered in Iho matter, even though they nro In Iho mfnoiily. The committee feels that lbcro are al ready a sufficient number of sturea In that locality to servo tho neigh borhood, t "A number of tho remonstrants ngalnst this store hnyo slated that the building ns planned was. no doubt, a credit to the neighbor hood, but It Is feared In tho event that business Is not ns good ns hoped hy the owner, there might Inter ho added a. gas pump, garage, shop or olher undesirable adjuncts to tho store. Thnt Is the main renson Jhey nro objecting so stren uously to tho zone being changed tq a business district.

It such an nrill nnnco wore now In effect thero would only bo one decision to make In tho present enso nnd thnt would bo to turn down tho appli cation for n change in itone, as the most strenuous objectors In this purtlriilur enso aro property own ers whoso property directly adjoins the property In question. "Tho commlteo has soen an ad ditional petition which has been signed by a hu ge number of peoplo who nre not within the 800-foot radius. This petition nsks Hint the change In ono ho granted. Wo do mot feel, however, that this peti tion snouid receive any particular consideration, but It docs' show that many people In that Inuuedl nlo vicinity dcslro a storo of this chimii tcr located at the corner of 1 t WILL BE OPERATED (By A.
