Description
This is a direct appeal from a judgment and a decree entered in the superior court of Cook County in separate actions begun
in that court but consolidated by order of the trial court at the time of the entry of final judgment and decree in each case.
Both actions involve the activities of the emergency committee on crime of the city council of the city of Chicago. The appeal
is brought directly to this court because the constitutionality of a statute and an ordinance are in question. The questioned
statute is section 23-111 of the Revised Cities and Villages Act. (Ill. Rev. Stat. 1953, chap. 24, par. 23-111.) The challenged
ordinance created the emergency committee on crime of the city council of the city of Chicago. It was passed on February 14,
1952. The issues in both cases arise upon the pleadings. Final judgment and decree were entered in the superior court after
motions to dismiss were sustained in one case and overruled in the other.
