PLAN FOR WIDENING
OF VAN BUREN, FROM
CENTRAL To 7TH I'VE.

Plans to give Van Bufen street
a uniform width Of So feet from Gen.
| trail avenue to Seventh avenue are
being worked out by the city plan
ming commission along with other
proposed methods of improving and
beautifying the city. The widening
| OF this street will be in conformity
with recommendations made by Ben
nett & Parsons OF Chicago. city plan
ners. who prepared the general lay
out upon which the local civic or
ganization is basing it's work.
The progress being made toward
securing this important improvement
was brought out at a meeting OF the
executive committee OF the commits
sion in its specially arranged quarters
yesterday. During the past week
meetings OF the property holders
along Van Buren street have been
held and property holders COM
mittee is now at work to put through
the plan proposed. It was pointed
out at the executive meeting yester-
day that as practically every prop
erty holder appreciates the necessity
of widening Van Buren, street, which
is destined to become one of the main
thoroughfares OF the city and valley,
this development promises to result
successfully.
In commenting upon the widening
of Van Buren street, Edward F. Par
ker, chairman of the city planning
commission. said:
when the Van Buren street matter
is finally in shape it will be sub
mitted to the city planning commits
sion and, if endorsed, will then be
recommended by us to the city COM
mission We hope to work this out
so that no general bonds need be
voted by the city, but the property
holders benefited viii buy thedr own
property, practically, with bonds OF
their own improvement district.
Other projects which the executive
committee are developing were sum-
married. as follows:
Zoning of City
A committee is studying the city
with the purpose at an early date OF
submitting a Zoning ordinance TO the
city commission. It is proposed to
establish the residence. business and
industrial districts Of the city along |
the lines of its present and future |
needs.
Subdivisions
In the past, new property subdi- |
visions have been laid out often with |
little regard to existing streets and |
alleys and the future growth OF the |
city. Especially is this true of acre
age subdivided contiguous to but not |
yet within the corporate limits.
A working arrangement is now in
effect that promotes the logical and
orderly plating OF new subdivisions.
The commission Will shortly submit
a tree planting ordinance to the city
This ordinance will
specify the variety of trees to be
planted in the various streets. Such
ordinances passed in other cities, es-
pecially California cities, have result
ed not only in increased beautifica-
ton OF all streets, but in variety and
The city planning commission Is
arranging a system for nursery stock
so that next fall this planting pro-
gram, il adopted, can be put into ef-
feet That it will also result in a
great deal Of planting of trees, palms
and shrubs on residence property is
the history in other cities adopting
this plan. J.

the same act that has attracted no

no less than five other state societies
have decided to make the Maricopa
Country club the scene of their fes-
tivities this summer.
The management of the park in no
uncertain language has announced
to the public that in opening the
park daily to the best citizens of
Phoenix they are undertaking some
thing for the civic betterment of the
entire community, believing that the
really worth while people of Phoenix
are in need of a strictly high class
recreation and amusement park. That
their policy as stated above has met
with appreciation by public is prov
en- by the many expressions OF good
will and cooperation from not only
the business men OF the city, but
from ministers also who have pledg-
ed their cooperation in making the
venture a success.
The sanitary swimming pool with
its pure clean water continues to at
tract the GRO xds during the hot aft
ernoons, and even well into the eve

yond dispute is one of the finest mu-
sical aggregations that has invaded
Phoenix. Two members OF the band,
Frank lien, pianist. and Ray De-
Almond, saxaphonist, were formerly
with the American orchestra, and the
dance music that Frank and Ray
and other members of the band turn
out has been pronounced by hundreds
of dancers as the equal of any band
ever heard. Dancing begins at $3.50
every evening and in order to secure
a ringside seat in the ball room it is
not necessary to purchase a yard or
two of dance tickets nightly. Admis-
sion to the park and dance pavilion
at all times is 10 cents. Admission to
the swimming pool, including bath
