I naturally assumed that the high er up referred to by these men was the mayor, Mr. Pace said yesterday. Mr. Pace also added that in a con versation with Mr. Flinders, the lat'er said that the city commission had granted a permit to build the marquee over his place. Mr. Pace threat cned to enjoin the work on the place without compliance with the buiMing code of the city. In an interview yesterday Mr. Pace tharged that while his protest was pigeon-hole- d in the city recorder office, construction on the marquee, .without strictly complying with the building requirements, was being made at the Flinders office.

Flinders, 306 Twenty-fifth street, without complying with the city ordinance, was lodged with the city commission last Saturday by J. E. Pace of Jackson & Pace and is now being considered by the city attorney. The protest of Mr. Pace cited that section 893 of the city ordinance requires that any canopy or marquee milt on a business place must have a carrying part of steel. He set forth that he understood that a verbal permit had been given to a local concern to proceed with the construction of the marquee at the Flinders place. Inspection of the latter location made Thursday night shows that it has been constructed, or at least partially built Mr. Pace said that when he spoke to Mayor Frank Francis about the matter, the latter urged him to enter a written protest Mr. Pace said he hurriedly did so last Saturday morning and rushed to the city hall with his written protest The same was not read lefore the city commission Monday or Tuesday, Mr. Pace said.
