linquish its management there would
be no other course open to US than
to comply, but we cannot agree with
your suggestion that it would be right
for US to voluntarily turn the park
over to the city commissioners at the
present time.
This communication mas been con-
sidered by the Pensacola Playground
Committee and by the Bayview Park
Committee both of which concur in
it. Mr.. c. E. Shackleford, chairman
of the Bayview committee, however,
wishes to record his non-concurrence.
Respectfully yours,
J. E. D. YONGE,
Secretary Pensacola Playground
Committee.
JAMES F. PHILLIPS,
For Bayview Committee.
The Pensacola journal. (Pensacola, Fla.) 1898-1985, 1915-07-30
Should Go Slow In
Bayview Park.

The commissioners of the city OF
Pensacola should consider well before
they reopen Bayview park to the pub
lie for bathing purposes. It is too
serious matter to be handled on the
spur Of the moment, and it seems to
us that the city commissioners are
acting rather hastily, considering the
consequences which may follow bath
ing in water that may be contami-
mated.
The Bayview park committee has
declined to open the park. 1t evi-
IDENTIFY took this action after mature
deliberation and this committee is
better posted on conditions than the
city commissioners. The members of
this committee made Bayview today
what it is, and they, above all others
want to continue the operation Of the
Mace for the benefit of the public,
but they do not wish to reopen a
bathing pavilion which may cause
sickness in Pensacola. There is an
element of risk in bathing in sNser
where the bacteria count is as high
as that shown by the meteorological
examinations. Physicians tell us this.
Quite number Of reputable physi-
clans Of the city, however, have
signed petition, in which they state
there Is no danger in bathing in
Bayou Texar. The Journal does not
care to take issue with these learned
gentlemen, but no one, not even
these physicians can make US believe
that it is healthy to battle in bayou
or body of water as small as Bayou
Texar into which a large sewer is
emptying its contents every hour OF
the twenty-four.
The Journal would like to see Bay
view reopened and the public enjoy
its excellent bathing facilities, but il
would regret its being reopened unit
the Romano street sewer condition is
renedied. The commissioners should
at least, think well over this matter
before they act.

Among the Baltimore firms report

cheering Co., Baltimore Tube Co.,

In addition, indications point to
large orders coming to various south

pending are contaminated. Among
recent rumors covering the placing of
other war orders are the following:
