ROTARY MEMBERS
FAVOR COMFORT
station At PARK

With the Endorsement of the Ro-
tary Club a well considered recon-
mendation for the establishment Of
9 comfort station at Aala park WIN be
made to the Board of Supervisors,
the club having adopted the report of
its subcommittee on the subject at
the luncheon meeting today.
The recommendation will be accom-
panied by a considerable amount Of
data obtained from mainland cities,
which have established such stations,
together with blue print plan for a
structure at the park designed by H.
L. Kerr, the architect, who is chair
man of the committee, his associates
being r. b. Booth, Joseph Z. Sheedy,
Dr. C. B. Cooper and 4. p. Taylor.
The station to be recommended will
cost, 1t is estimated, about $4,000. AS
the station is proposed to be erected
on city property, there will be no
ground cost.
The committee also recommended
that stations be established in the
proposed city hall, and also one in
the proposed Union street park which
may become fact, should Bishop
street be extended mauka of Hotel
street into Union street. The com.
mittee made an exhaustive study OF
the entire situation and one Of the rea-
sons advanced was that of public
health and public morality, conclu-
sion reached by other cities when
they decided TO establish such sta
lions.
