"SOUTH SIDE CIVIC
CLUBS MOVE T0 ABOLISH DUMP
Minnesota St. Area Target As Public Meeting Is Set For Friday Night.
m———
A vigorous campaign to eliminate the Minnesota St. dumping ground, described as a menace to health, an eyesore and public nuisance, will be launched ‘by the South Side Civic Clubs at a public meeting at 8 p. m. Friday at the South Side Turners Hall. Petitions demanding that the City take steps to clean up the grounds and halt the dumping of offensive refuse are being circulated now and will be collected at the meeting, according to A. J. Voight, vice president of the organization.
Cites Long Campaign
South Side residents living in the vicinity of the dump have sought unsuccessfully for years to do some-
thing about the situation, Mr. Voight said, but are determined not to fail this time. He said plans of the group call for extension of Illinois St. from Ariona St. to Adler St. over filled ground of the dump, as a WPA | project, in order to divert part of
\ [the present heavy traffic on 8S.
Meridian St. to Bluff Road. The |street had been plotted for years but never was opened. The dump, roughly three-quarters of a mile long and from a quarter to a half-mile wide, lies in the lowlands between the proposed extension of Illinois St. on the East and Illinois Central Railroad vards ion the west, with the Belt Railroad | elevation as the south boundary. | Dr. Herman G. Morgan, Health Roard secretary, declared the situation had been a sanitary problem many years.
Called Fire Menace
“It is a rat harbor and a fire menace.” he said. “We have had a [lot of complaints over the years about this and several other dumps
in the City. Indianapolis has about outgrown its dumping facilities.” Mr. Voight said the Fire Department is called frequently to extinguish fires in paper, wood and other inflammable materials in the dump. | “The smoke is annoying to resi|dents in the general vicinity,” he lsaid. “and everytime there is a [strong wind, the entire neighbor‘hood is littered with papers and ashes carried on the breeze." | The ground is privately owned, he said. most of the awners living out
