She declared it {wasn't fair to the dog nor the chil- dren or owners who have dogs for Ipets. She inquired as to the ex- {isting dog ordinance and City Clerk A. W. Henning obliged by reading ‘the various ordinances now on the books pertaining to dogs and other 'animals- running at large in the ‘eity. ¢ Shattuck Prowsis Dogs Supporting the new ordinahce, 'inate the dog nuisance, was Curtis !Shajtuck and George W. Folta. Mr Shattuck said that he too'was a dog-lover but he also was a prop- ‘upposed to dogs running about the city as they now do and making 'themselves objectionable both in the business and residential distriot. He urged the Council to take same jaction to rid the city of the dog i nuisance. Mr. Folta argued that something should be done to protect the prop- erty owner from prowling dogs. Hu- man rights come before dog rights, He contended. Mr. Harri moved, seconded by Mr, Reck, that the ordinance be passed| |in second reading, and it was so voted. The liquor question on which the Council has been getting protests was put over until the next regular meeting as was action on the re- visions in -the building code. City Engineer Milton Lagergren urged| that those who have any sugges- tions on the building' code to pre- sent their suggestions before the next meeting, February 19. ———.——— - ARMY BOMBERS MAKING FLIGHT BALBOA, Canal Zone, Feb, 9.— Nine Army bombing planes took off at 8 o'clock this morning from Al- brook Field on a return trip to Lang- ley Field, Va.
