Opposes Drastic Change Mr. Schell is unalterably opposed to any material change in the present zoning ordinance, he told the council, unless it be a slight change, perhaps, in the number of families permissable per acre in territory zoned "C" com- mercial. He made it plain that he is as firm- ly opposed to the extension of "C" com- mercial area in the village, but would safeguard with every precaution the development of this class of territory, already thus zoned.

Some of these people, he said, when to extend the "C" commercial area into new territory, whatever, but merely a desire to protect Winnetka as it now is, quickly changed front and admitted they had been laboring under a wrong impression. Winnetka-Owned Property He also called attention to the fact that 90 percent of the business prop- erty in Winnetka is owned by men who not only reside in the village but also own the building in which their busi- ness is conducted.

They are just as much interested and perhaps more so, he felt, in maintaining the present lofty ideals of the village, than many of those who simply reside here and have their business interests elsewhere. It is this, and this spirit-alone which makes Winnetka the Winnetka it is today, he declared, and that condition has resulted in the development under the present restrictions, which the proponents of further restrictions would now change and which the busi- ness men, with both their homes and business at stake, would retain, just about as it is. It has proven the wis- dom of its provision, Mr. Schell feels. Trinity Evangelical Greenwood and Hawthorne avenues, Glencoe L. H. Nauss, Ev. Luth. pastor Sunday, January 29.
