Park BOARD AAks Aid.

The fact that the Board Of Park Com
missioners had sought the aid Of the state
in the litigation begun by George S. Wright
and George II. Mayne over the possession
of Big Lake park was made public yester-
day by Governor Cummins while in Council
Bluffs.
Governor Cummins stated that about
week ago Park Commissioner Graham and
the. attorneys for the park board appeared
before him in Des Moines with request that
the state OF Iowa deed to the park board
of Council Bluffs the lake and adjoining
land in controversy as a public park. The
governor was Informed by the attorneys
that there was some litigation pending. but
until yesterday he was not aware Of the ma
ture Of Il While talking with Mr.. Wright
he accidentally mentioned the fact of the
attorneys visit to Des Moines and their re-
quest. This was the first intimation that
Mr., Wright had that the park board had
tried to bring the state into the litigation.
When the nature Of the suit was eI-
planned to him Governor Cummlns notified
the attorneys for the park board that he
investigated whether the state had any
interest in the property and whether II il
had he would have the right TO deed 1t
away. The matter. Governor Cummins
stated. would be laid before the attorney
general, who would probably represent the
state at the trial Of the suit here. The
governor also assured Mr.. Wright that be-
fore any action was taken by him he~would
give Messrs. Wright and Mayne an op-
portunity to be heard in the matter.
