PARKS UNDER
CONTROL OF WOMEN

Juarez Aug; lS.-This city is be-
lieved to be the only city in the world
in which the direction and control of
the city parks have been turned over
completely TO female control.
The parks in Ciudad Juarez will be
attended by men in the future as
they have in the past. but over the
men will be a board Of eight lady
managers. composed of four "Damas'
and four "Senorita" who will have ex-
elusive control and direction of all
the public parks.
The plan is an idea of Mayor Me-
dina. who was recently appointed to
office and his theory is that the pa
tios about the average Mexican homes
demonstrate that the women know
more about such things than mere
men.
