DISPUTE UP
To CITY ATTORNEY

A conference was held in Mayor
Rolphs Office this morning on the
question of whether permission
should be granted for the construc-
ton of a $1.000.000 amusement pier
at the ocean beach. After two hours
of argument II was decided to ask
City Attorney Long to decide the
point of jurisdiction and to leave the
question of policy to the supervisors.
1T developed during the hearing
that d. r. Grammar and other local
theater owners had a rival plan for
the construction of a pier at the
beach and were determined to prevent
the eastern hackers of the original
project from obtaining a permit.
All members of the park commits
sion, the supervisors lands and tun-
nels and public welfare committees.
San Francisco center, California club,
Downtown association and other or
ganizatiops were present. Judge Cur
tbs H. Lindley said the project pre-
seHted by the Upton brothers was a
laudable one, but that the park COM
mission was against commercializing
the beach and had no power. to grant
such a permit.
Supervisor Andrew T. Gallagher Gre
ated sensation when he scored the
park commission for its failure to i'm

said, Ito provide conveyances and
amusement for the thousands who
will visit the beach during the fair.
Why. do you oppose this offer on the
part OF eastern capitalists to improve
the beach when you will do nothing
yourself?'
Judge Lindley replied with some
heat: s-If you know anybody who
wantsNmy job let me know The posi-
tion is honorary, and the task of a
park commissioner is certainly not
strewn with roses.
An elaborate scheme for making the
beach the peoples playground, with a
variety of amusement and entertain
| ment features, is suggested to Mayor
Rolph by the Santa Francisco Con-
vention league in a letter expressing
it's approval of the pier.
In its communication the league de-
clares that the beach must ulti-
mately be beautifed in a comprehen-
sive and intelligent manner, and asks
that Rolph place the matter in the
hands of the proper commission and
invite competition among architects
and engineers.

The Vice-president walked to the

and the chaplain invoked the Divine
blessing, after which the senate was

were at their post, but was glad to
note that our senator the Hon. B.

great and mighty chieftain of the

was made to exclaim, America the

going to erect a memorial to Lin
coin at cost Of six and half mil

the National Museum. What a
waste. Look where you may in the

money that is spent there for these
