HEART BALM
ACTION STARTS HERE
Members of the Park Board:
DON'T SIGN IT!

/T>HE PARK BOARD will be committing serious
i mistake from several standpoints, if tomorrow
it should sign the 10-year contract, giving the
Lewis-Lester company all the Woodland park con-
cessions including refreshments, tobaccos boating,
etc.
This city has been given opportunity, prov-
dentially, to these concessionaires as they
truly are When they believed themselves secure,
they profiteered- ON KIDDlES
AS ON GROWNUPS
The park board may THINK it can stop profiteer-
ing by clause written into the contract. But 1t
won't be so easy later to cancel the contract no
matter how extortionate the prices may be. Law
yers have been known to find loopholes
The time to protect the public is NOW.
Never mind that sop-that doubtful sop in the
freshments In the first place, the essionaires
are going to get the benefit of the building them
selves and in the second place there won't be
much left for the park board to own after the 10
years have expired.
It isn't safe to trust 10-year concession to a
company that has, in the initial test failed to show
proper regard for the public.
The Lewis-Lester company has really forfeited
J any claim to this contract A. 10-yeay contract
ii any event. is mistake, and in this Instance sn
would be particularly SO. The Star is confident
moreover that a better contract can be obtained by
throwing the proposition wide open to ALL bidders
Your duty members of the park board, is to
the parks patrons, and to the public first last,
and all the time. The Lewis-Le Co. ought to
be but an incident to you. You need have no hes-
tation in calling your tentative deal off.
YOU OWE A GOOD DEAL TO THE PUBLIC
NOTHING AT ALL TO THE WOULD-BE con-
CESSIONAIRES.
