MAYOR WILL SOON NAME A
SHADE TREE COMMISSIONER

The membership of the Shade
Tree Commission wi'sns soon be
brought up to its ful5<So.ota, accord
ing to Mayor FerS eeo.rretson. John
C. Donehue's term as a shade tree
commissioner expired in March.
Since that time Morgan F. Larson
and F. A. Seaman have been the
members, but practically all of the
work done has been executed under
the direction of Mr.. Donehue, al
though he has not been recognized
as a member of the commission.
Commenting upon the situation
today, Mayor Garretson said he had
not fastened to appoint man in Mr.
Donehue's place because the COM
mission was powerless to do much,
it having no funds with which to
work. He said that all the commits
sion could do was to order shade
trees planted on sidewalks and
charge the expense incurred to the
property benefited.
No decision has been reached by
the mayor as yet as to who he will
appoint. The position is not a very
important one and there is no pay
connected with 1t. 1t is believed that
few men would accept it, largely in
view of the fact that the commission
is without funds and therefore pow
erless to proceed with improve
ments on public property.
