CAUSES STIR
Defenders Of Playground
Squander Jared by Bis
DiSapprOvaI
FEAR HE WILL MAKE
PUBLIC STATEMENT

Defenders of the payment of $20,-
900 for the tract of land bought from
Peter ]. Ford on the western line of
Wilmington for a playground have
been Jared because of the attitude
OF William p. Bancroft, president of
the Park Commission, in objecting
to the purchase at the price paid. Mr..
Bancroft as a member of the Park
Commission joined with other mem
bers in recommending the purchase
upon satisfactory terms" The deal
was made, the price of $4,000 secret
ly fixed and the money was paid while
Mr. Bancroft was away and il is said
he was not consulted as to the price.
The haste and secrecy in closing the
deal as we'll as the high price paid,
have stirred Mr.. Bancroft, who is the
greatest friend the public park sys-
TEN of Wilmington has had. He has
given much land to the city for park
purposes and has turned other tracts
over TO the city at nominal prices. The
purchase of the Ford tract by the
finance committee of Council. is said
to be the first purchase of land for
park purposes about which Mr. Ban
croft was not consulted as to price.
Not only did he make a statement set
ting forth his disapproval at a pri-
vate meeting of the Park Commis-
sion on Wednesday, but he sought out
members of the finance committee Of
Council that night and told them
about it, too.
Some of the Councilmen were on
the anxious bench last night, for they
had an idea that Mr.. Bancroft might
send in a letter expressing his atti-
tude on the playground deal, and they
didn't like the idea of that.
Mr.. Bancroft is not the only mem
her Of the Park Commission who re-
CARDS the price as high, for It is said
that Joseph L. Carpenter has pro-
tested that he considers that an ex-
cessive price was paid for the Ford
tract
