City Counselor Is Drafting Ordinance Requiring Abatement.

The city counselor's department is busy on the draft of an ordinance to be introduced in the council providing for the abatement of the smoke nuisance from the manufacturing and heating plants.

City Counselor Harzfeld, as president of the City Club, has for a number of months had experts at work compiling data for the ordinance. It embraces the results obtained in twenty-eight cities that claim to have mastered the smoke situation.
