Disputed City Hall Incident Prompted by Trade Council
Joyce of the Attic Trades Council disputes a morning paper report on last night’s city hall incident. He says patrolmen arranged with Barks R'Fridman on North Main for new uniforms and that tailors asked for tabs to be added, noting the committee did not seek a contract change. A sale notice also appears for shares of The Tagart's Valley Mineral and Oil Company, and an old remedy ad touts Dr Bull’s Cough Syrup and Allen's Tongue Balsam as cures for throat and chest ailments.
