MAYOR ELABORATES ON HIS
PLAN OF ACQUIRING PARKS
Thinks Land Contracts Better Scheme
Than Issuing Bonds-knock
From Doremus.

Mayor Breitmeyer's suggestion, in
his annual message. that the city buy
park sites for the future on land con-
tracts caused much comment In the
city hall this morning. The mayor
talked the matter over more fully.
Wednesday morning, with several who
asked him about the idea.
Such permission to the park COM
missioner to- buy land should not be
unlimited" said the mayor. ION the
contrary, he should be restricted to
purchases OF certain amount In any
one year. The purpose Of buying land
contract would be to secure the land
without unduly increasing the bonding
limit. The land contract would be \
charge upon the land itself 1t could
be paid off In five or more payments.
spreading the cost from year to year.
I'm case conditions changed so that
the city did not want park In the
particular location chosen, the city
could sell the land, at a profit in all
probability, or give up the contract.
I'VE should 60 ahead with our park
plans at once, however. / hope that
the city plan and improvement COM
mission can draw rp plan for future
park development within year. 1t
will have to ask for an appropriation
for that purpose, OF course
I'VE should have a new boulevard
running from Connor's Creek to Pal
mer Park and thence to Woodmere, at
distances ranging from A 1-2 to IL
miles from the center Of the city.
Most of that land could be secured
for nothing right now. People are
giving a right of way out there for
Bob Oakman's new road and they
would give 1t still more freely for a
boulevard.
Controller Doremus and Corporation
Counsel Hally do not take particularly
to the mayors idea.
II do, not see any particular adj
vantage In land contracts instead of
bonds stated DoremuS 1T is a
question as to whether the city could
negotiate land contracts on as favor
able interest terms as bonds. Land
contracts are taxable and the city
could not exempt them"
The city would be liable on land
contracts just the same as on bonds.

YOUNG ASTOR OFFERS $4,000
TO AID CONSERVATIVES
Says He viii Give Amount To Charity
II Food Prices Increase
Under Tariff.

LONDON, Jan. 12.-Conseryative
leaders adopted new tactics today in
their effort to convince the voters that
the adoption of protection as proposed
by them, will work a great industrial
benefit to England.
Young Waldorf Astor, the Conser-
vative parliamentary candidate from
Plymouth, says he will give $4,000 to
charity IL food prices increase during
the first year Of operation OF the pro-
posed tariff. Charles Bayer, a Bath
manufacturer, announces that he will
give $4,000 to charity II he does not
increase the number of his employees
by 900 within two years under pro-
tective policy.
Other offers of this sort have been
made and the effect Is to make many
workmen to believe that the end Of
their troubles will come with the
adoption of protection.
Balfour favors protection, but re-
fuses to say that protection will end
the unemployed problem; he urges a
big navy rs a defense against German
aggression, but refuses TO say that he
believes Germany is preparing for a
war against England; he depreciates
the Liberals attacks on the peers, but
confesses that the house of lords
needs reformation.
At Glasgow last night Balfour ac-
tually shocked his big audience by re-
fusing to predict the result OF the
election. The best comfort he could
hold out to his Conservative audience
was that 81 am sure that the radical
majority I'm the next house OF com
mons will not exceed $780,

PENDANT in a suit for divorce brought
by his wife, Grace. never caused any
OF his patients q more uncomfortable
hour than he spent Wednesday morn
ing under cross-examination at the
hands of Attorney Frank Bumps. He
was numerically grilled. and the
smile he carried while his wife was
making serious charges against him
gave way to anger, and several times
his voice rose In protest
He admitted that at least part OF
the testimony given Tuesday after
noon by his wife's brother. Grover
Shea, was true. Shea told of trips
through the /. tenderloin In company
with the defendant, and of the lavish
manner in which the latter threw his
money about. DR.. Sanborn admitted
that he went on Summing expeditions,
as he called them, and related his ver-
sion OF trip to the Palms. a beer
garden and dance hall on Gratiot-ave.,
which was first brought into the case
by the brother-in-law. He stated that
on that occasion he took party Of
men from northern Michigan with
whom he had become acquainted on
his hunting trips.
Then you admit that you were the
leader of the party?" Mr.. Bumps ask
ed.
"Yes;n~the defendant replied.
"And did you take a girl from there
to q place on Wayne-st.?"
The doctor admitted that he did, but
entered into a long explanation OF
how it happened, and insisted that he
had been guilty of no improper con-
duct. He said II was the intention of
the men to each find girl. and the
party would then go to fiat owned by
one of the men and have a big time.
but In some manner the party broke
up, leaving him and his brothcr-in-law
and the two girls together. Then they
went to the place on Wayne-st.. had
another drink and went home.
you knew where to lead the boys
to show them the sights?"
YES"
"You went with a party to a resort
on Brush-st., didn't your?
YES"
and to another place across the
street,?
Yes"
The doctor claimed that much of
this stunning business was done for
advertising purposes.
Then do you admit that you cater
ed for that trade In your dental prac-
tice?'
IL do In o way"
"How about that trip to Inkster, to
a country dance? Was that for ad-
vertising purposes or for your health?'
MY wife had been nagging me at
that time and went for recreation"
"And yon went out there and danced
with fat Gortie, and did just the things
your wife was complaining of, didn't

"You took her out, didn't your"
II did not"
"How many times have you been in

How many times in that place

Sitting on the front seat, listening
to this testimony. were the defend
ants mother and sisters. They dis
played no evidences of concern over

that cropped out Of the proceedings.
