CHANGE IN park PLAN
REQUIRES MORE MONEY
Commissioners Report on
Suggestion Relating to
Willow Tree Alley.

An additional appropriation of $4,000
win be required II Willow Tree alley. now
being converted into an interior park. Is
to be made a public recreation center. in
accordance with the provisions OF a joint
resolution introduced in Congress by Sen
ator Dillingham;. say the District OF Co
lumbia Commissioners in reporting on the
measure today.
The resolution directs the Commission
ers to expend the balance OF the appro-
priation OF $4,000 for the purpose OF
condemnfng land for the park and the
sum OF $1,000. carried in the current Dis
trtct appropriation act. for the develop
ment OF the land in establishing a public
recreation center at that point
Commissioners' Report.
In their report on the measure, the
Commissioners say:
The present balance Of the appro-
priation for the condemnation OF the
land Is about $4,000. and with the
additional appropriation made for its
development makes a total balance
available Of $4,000.
When the Commissioners submitted
to Congress in their estimates for the
fiscal year 1912 an item to condemn the
land in the interior Of square 534,
known as Willow Tree alley, it was
their intention to develop the interior
or this square as a public recreation
center; the estimated cost submitted
with this item being $125,000, which
included an estimate of $4,000 for con-
demning the land and $4,000 for con-
structing the necessary building to
afford bathing and other facilities
necessary to make this public recrea-
ton center.
Congress, however, changed this in
tention and appropriated only the sum
of $78,O0O with the direction that the
land should be acquired as an interior
park, and failed to make any appropria-
ton for a building, or to authorize the
use of the land so acquired as q play
ground center.
Plan for Interior Park.
1.-THE land has now been acquired and
the old buildings on the site have been
removed, and it is the intention Of the
Commissioners under the directions con-
tanned in the appropriation, to improve
the land as an interior park. This is
estimated to cost in the neighborhood OF
5000. The balance of these appropria-
tons will not be sufficient to convert this
interior park into a public recreation
center, as the estimated cost of doing Sc
is $4,000, and the balance of The appro-
priations is but $4,000. II, therefore, II
is the desire of Congress to change the
character Of the development of this land
from an interior park to public recrea-
ton center. as proposed by this resolu-
an additional amount Of $4,000"
