C, WEDNESDAY, JULY 9, 1924 Woodward & Lotheop DOWN STAIRS STORE ASKS RESTRICTIONS ON VENDERS OF FRUIT M. and M. Association Wants Dealers Confined to Certain Streets in Business Section. Enactment of a regulation that would confine fruit venders to certain streets in the business district is re- quested by the Merchants and Manu- facturers’ Assoclation in a letter to the Commissioners from Charles J. Columbus, secretary. The merchants ask that pusheart vending be restricted to the area from 10th to 12th, B to C streets northwest and both sides of B street from 13th to 14th northwest. 1f it is fair and reasonable for the farmers to have specific space desig- nated for the sale of their wares, why is it not fair and reasonable for every other class to be so regulated? the letter from the merchants asks. “The produce dealers that are run- ning_ wild in the downtown section should be stopped ut once. Designa- tion of the above cited stands for li- censed verders of all classes f& ed to g0 into effect at once, 80, if necessary, thers may be quick sub- n to the Police Court. There should be no delay in this most im- portant matter.’ The letter asserts that venders take up the open spaces intended for pe- destrians at street corners and street car loading platform Dr. I.
