<br />
<br /> The following letter was read, ~ud on motion of Mr. Howard, referred to the Ci-
<br />ty Manager and City Atto.ney.
<br />
<br /> Porzsmbuth Central Labor Union has instructed me to write you, ~ugges~!~g
<br /> "The
<br />that an ordinance be drawn up to parallel the Federal law for prosecuting offenders
<br />prices. I realize our oxficers~and courts are oper~t~g =t
<br /> ~ ~ ~ ~ full a~acity and-would be
<br />unable to devote any great amount of time to it, however, I believe the mor~l effect o f such an
<br />ordinance would have considerable weight.
<br /> Norfolk, Newport News, Hampton and other nearby cities have been ~oproached
<br />and are considering the drawing-up of such an ordinance.
<br /> Thanking you for past considerations, I remain
<br />
<br />Yours very truly,
<br />
<br />GeO. To Chase, Secretary."
