Czecho-Slovaks and others who have
not contributed so much to American
history was just the thing to do. How
ever, while we demonstrated, want TO
make it clear that there was no friction
on this or any other point.
Our plans were, l believe, quite
striking. We desired to depict his
torical scenes in the founding and col
onization of Nieuw Amsterdam. with
the roles portrayed entirely by the de-
scendants of the Knickerbocker fam
lily founders who had actually taken
part in the real scenes. For that rea-
son I sought to obtain the interest Of
descendants of the Stuyvesants, Van
Cortlandts, de Kays, Van Burens,
Spratts and de Puysters.
"While we found considerable diff
Guilty in arousing the desired interest
because many members of the Knicker-
becker families were out Of town for
the summer, | want to make it clear
that we could easily have raised the
necessary funds. We decided to aban-
don our plans merely because we felt
that the great cost Of representing the
Dutch history OF New York would be
in large excess Of any return obtain
able for us.
at is now my understanding that
plans are being made to represent
Knickerbocker characters at the ex-
position by persons not members of
the Knickerbocker families, and in
dress furnished by costumers. There
probably will be serious objection from
several quarters if this understanding
proves to be true, but beyond that
can think of no possible reason for
friction of any kind"

we found that the expense of staging

run into many thousands of dollars,
