REFUSE TO LET WOMEN USE
GRANT PARK FOR MEETING
The South Park Board, headed by
John Barton Payne, the millionaires'
lawyer, has refused to allow the wo-
men of Chicago to hold a big suf-
frage rally in Grant Park on May 2.
Payne and his cohorts hid behind
the excuse that it would be pOliti-
cal meeting and that Grant Park, de-
light of the Illinois Central corpora
ton and Big Business men of Michi-
gan avenue, was never intended for
political meetings.
The board also delayed action on
the request that some part of this big
park be set for public meetings. This
will probably be fought by the big
property owners. They don't want to
run the chance of having some of the
poorer folks mingle with the latest
