Newsboys License Repeal Planned By Councilman Trusler
Councilman Trusler will introduce a measure at next Monday night’s meeting to repeal the ordinance requiring newsboys and bootblacks to purchase a 25 cent license badge. He and Sim Coy opposed the original four years ago, arguing private consent and mayoral approval are improper and impractical for a license tax. The superintendent Miss Innis says the newsboys home gains little from the tax, which was meant to foster pride and support the home’s maintenance.
