IGNORE HIS DESPAIR
Refuse to Accept His Belief
Downtown Always Will
x Be Dirty
Another conference wilt bf held today
between Chief Hick, of the Street
Cleaning Itureau, and the nvn prominent
Italians who yesterday called upon him
and demanded that the streets of the
dftwntown Italian colony be cleared of
dlea-foeterlng filth.
The .object of today's consultation Is
the worklnf out of detail of a plan
for the residents of the afflicted area to
help the bureau and Kenntor Vare fulfill
their cblli-atlon to keen.the streets clean.
The fact that Chief Hicks admlti he U
'too old" for hla Job will not be allowed
to halt the procecdlnc. The proteeta'nt
also' will Ignore his expressed belief
that the ctreeta of South Philadelphia al
ways wilt be dirty, nnd will pay no
attention to his dislike for hi Job, re
Tsaled at yesterday's meeting.

the street cleaning chief until 2 tit
'clock p. m.

edged that the condition of the streets
4ewntown was such that, after touring
ta section three night last week, he
had to remain Indoors Sunday to ward
off a spell of sickness. But hla sugges
tions for remedial action, summed up,
aeemed to be' that those who want clean
streets should seo that they never be

Among the causes of dirty streets, as
set forth by the chief, are the war,
the police department, the wprklngman.
