All Kansas City is
Watching the Omaha
Auditorium Deal

Even the Kansas City Commercial club
Is watching the movement in Omaha for
the purchase of the Auditorium. the bond
issue for which Is to come up at the
election May 4. Public spirit should
prompt almost a unanimous response to
such a movement as that of a city-owned
auditorium, especially when your citizens
can acquire one worth $4,000 for $4,000"
wrote q. II. Forsee, industrial commits
sioner of the Kansas City Commercial
club. in an interesting letter to f. ".
Parrish of Omaha.
Commissioner Forsee has the following
to say In his letter.
MY attention has been called TO the
fact that Omaha is facing the question of
losing its Auditorium. An article in one
of the Omaha papers yesterday stated
you were very much interested in this
proposition and that you were attempting
to get the people of Omaha to purchase
the Auditorium as city property.
ITO us in Kansas City. who look upon
Omaha with as much pride as we do upon
our own city. 1t hardly seems right that
you should be called upon to put forth
such efforts Public spirit should prompt
almost a unanimous response to such a
movement as that Of city owned Audi
torium, especially when your citizens can
acquire one worth $4,000 for $4,000. II
Omaha permits it's Auditorium TO go by
the boards it will give your city unfavor-
able publicity throughout the country
which II will take many years and the
expenditure Of much money to overcome
Knowing Omaha and its citizens as
well as do. l hardly feel that your bond
issue will not carry. and for that reason
I am going to congratulate Omaha on
having a public Auditorium
Please pardon my seeming interference
but in Kansas City we have the interests
OF Omaha so much at heart that can
not refrain from saying word with re.
gard to this proposition
