SUGGEST WAR NAMES
. FOR SMALL PARKS
AS MEMORIALS HERE
United Spanish Veterans ASK
Members and Friends to
Support Suggestion

A plan to commemorate tho deeds of
Philadelphians in the world war by the
erection of small parks named after
famous local units or prominent figures
in the war is advanced by the Phila
delphia executive council of United
Spanish War Veterans.
Iron Division Park. Marine Brigade
Park. Sims Park. Beatty Park. Perish.
ing Park. Foch Park and Haig Park
are among the names suggested by the
council. The parks should be erected
in places convenient Of access and where
they would be of the greatest service
to the people of the city, the resolution
proposing the parks says.
The parks of honor are to be pur-
chased for the express purpose of me =
MORALS to those who fought in the war
and should not be parks now on the
city plans whose names were merely
changed as a remembrance.
By thus bonoring the Iron Division
and the Allied naval and army com
manders the veterans believe the best
kind of a memorial would be erected
This. they say. is preferable to great
expendture ''to erect some monument
or marble pile that will cost a large
sum of money and be of little use to
all concerned
