2 JOBS FOR BORBUR
It's Tough to Have a ParkBoard With the Auto
Point of View!1 I
"Cp FFORTS are being made today to induce the park board to rescind its actionof l ist I riday in voting to spend the cit.'s appropriation tor free band music
in the parks this year?S3,6oo?exclusively for i series of Sunday concerts atVolunteer park.
Volunteer park is the only city park where automobiles can pull up close tothe bandstand to hear the music. The park board's plan is a tine thing for weal-thy and fashionable Capitol Mill. But what about the man who doean't live in a$5,000 home, and haa no automobile, and who takea hia Sunday reat in one of themany other city parka?
liven Mayor Gill is disgusted with his park board. Professional men, promi-nent merchants, and just plain citizens, Interviewed today by The Star, expresstheir indignation. They will appear at the meeting of the board on Friday anddemand a reconsideration of the concert matter. There is a chance that theirefforts will succeed.
The board will be asked to divide the money it has, and Rive concerts inALL the well patronized City parks. And if there ia not enough to give musicto all parka, certainly the one a?lected ahould not be Volunteer park. Most of thepeople who live adjacent to Volunteer park, if they want a band badly enough onSunday, can afford to go out and hire on?. But the man who lives at (jreen l.akecan't.
Rut here it is, in the wealthiest section of the city, that the Dick Kinnearsand Charlie Mundays on the park board find the greatest necessity for providingfree "popular" band concerts for summer.
TO THE KINNHARS AND THK MUNDAYS. TUB HONK OF AN AUTO-MOBILE IS SWEETER MUSIC THAN THE I \UGHTER OF CHILDREN INPLAYGROUNDS. THAT IS THE TROUBLE. WHEN THEY TALK ECON-OMY. IT IS TO ABOLISH PLAYGROUNDS. SO \S TO PROVIDE MOREMONEY FOR AUTOMOBILE BOULEVARDS.
Erastus Brainerd is the only member of the park board who opposed theindefensible discrimination for Volunteer park band concerts. Dick Kinnear,wealthy property owner, and Charles Munday, wealthy lawyer, led the board intogiving Volunteer, park all 14 of Dad Wagner's concerts. Otto Roseleaf and GeorgeB. Lamping passively agreed.
NOW TAKE THIS LITTLE THOUGHT WITH YOU. MEMBERSOF THE PARK BOARD:
YOU HAVE SPENT MILLIONS OF DOLLARS ON BOUEVARDS. THEREARE THOUSANDS UPON THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE WHO HAVE PAID.DIRECTLY AND INDIRECTLY. FOR THE BUILDING AND UPKEEP OFTiILSL UOULLNAJtbX WHO HAVE NEVER YET HAD THE PRIVILEGE OFRIDING OVER THEM.
They are citizens of Seattle who fin J it more convenient to patronize Wood-land park, and Leschi park, and Alki beach.
They are people who would be put to the trouble of traveling many miles,spending an hour or an hour and a half, if not more, to get to Volunteer park.
These thousands are entitled to the best you can give then in park music.It is in Woodland park, at Alki, in Leschi park that the most liberal programs ofband music should be arranged.
In these parks, it is true, auto atul limousine owners cannot drive up to theband stand and listen to the music. THESE ARE THE PARKS OF THE PEO-PLE WHO HAVE TO WALK.
The coming week muat decide one of two things. Either the park board is toforget its automobile point of view in arranging the achedule of park concerts, orels* the peoples are going to take the matter into their own hands directly, con-tribute their omm money, and arrange their own concerts.
The Star is confident there are enough grneroua buaineas men, professional| men, wage earners, and civic organizatlona in Seattle to raiae the necessary money.
