the salary of tho commissioner was ul
creased with tho object of having Sal
isbury stay on the Job. Salisbury
stated that he presented his resigna
tion not because of tho salary paid,
but to escape "grief." Ordinances re
lating to tho streets were being vio
lated every day and when he attempt
ed to enforce them the mayor and
council failed to stand back of him.
That's why ho ha.d resigned. He was
assured that if he continued as com
missioner he would be supported in
tho enforcement of ordinances, and
upon this assurance ho withdrew his'
resignation. Salisbury stated yester
day that ho had the names of twelve
who had violated ordinances and that
ho would file complaint against them.
In enforcing tho ordinances, Salisbur
says all offenders will look alike to
