Board of Works to Be Asked
Privilege of the Glen
For Next Year.
mayor is ANSWERED
Directors Say Morton Park
Will Not Be Ready for
the 1914 Event.

Chautauqua directors will appear
before the board of public works
Thursday evening and request permits
sion be extended for the use of Glen
Miller park for Chautauoua purposes
next year.
The directors think that it would
be unwise to anaounce at this time
that the 1914 Chautauqua will be held
at Morton park, as many of the pat
rons think that the new park Will not
be in shape for such purposes next
year, which would materially affect
the sale of tickets.
While the promise has been made
that the street cars will be run to the
new resort before the time set for next
years Chautauqua there is no positive
assurance that the extensions will be
completed by that time or even that
the park itself will be completely
equipped.
Jordan Takes Exceptions.
Exception is taken by G.. w. Jordan,
secretary of the Richmond CONNER
cial club, to the statement of Mayor
Zimmerman that the directors of the
Chautauqua promised last year upon
receiving permission to use Glen Mil
Ter for Chautauqua purposes that the
same privilege would not be asked
again and that the people do no want
it held there. He also objects to the
inference made by the mayor that af-
ter the expense of policing the park
and putting it back into shape after
the annual entertainment has been
there, there is little or nothing left
for the city to use in meeting park
expenses.
Mr.. Jordan states that in the ten
years that the Chautauqua has been
in existence over $500 has been turn
ed over to the city for park improve
ment purposes. This money was to
have been applied to the construction
of pavilion in the park to be used
for housing the Chautauqua crowds
and other large meetings. Part of this
money, however, has been used for
the construction of an entrance to the
park.
No individual makes any money out
of the Chautauqua as all cash that is
left over after the payment of expen-
ses, is divided equally between the Y.
M. c. A. and the board of public
works, to be used for park improve
ment. None of the men who give their
time and energy to making it sue
cess receive one penny for their la
Dor, but are even required to purchase
tickets the same as the rest of the peo-
pie in the city.
City Has No Expense.
All the expense of policing the
ground is borne by the management,
with the exception of the salary of
one patrolman who acts as chief of the
force. The cost of cleaning the park
when the annual event is over is ALSO
borne by the promoters of the Chau-
tauqua.
The mayor objects to permitting
the ChautauQua to be held in the park
because he thinks it is not right to
conduct an entertainment, for which
admission is chegged in public park.
The directors, Slowever. point out that
a merry go-round is being operated
there under precisely similar circum-
stances.
