Paulist Fathers Protest

The Paulist fathers filed a protest
with the board of supervisors yester-
day against the proposed leasing of
the St Mary's park land for 30 years
to private parties. The city has ac-
quired by purchase and condemnation
most of the block bounded by Grant
avenue. California and Pine streets
and st. Mary's alley. When all has
been secured it has been the purpose
to create a park square. The fathers
protested that the proposed lease
would postpone for many years the
hope of getting this desirable park
site and asked the supervisors not to
enter into it.
