To DEMAND
FAIR PLAY
BY BOARD
President of Holman St. I'm.
proyement Assn, Says
Board of Works Is
indifferent.

Refusal of the board of works
to go to any expense at this
time" in making an estimate of the
cost of widening Holman street
has caused a good deal of dissa It's
faction among Holman street prop
erty owners. AS result of the
boards attitude toward the i'm
provement it was said today that
there would in all probability be a
demand made upon Mayor Brown
to remove one OF the three mem
bers of the board and replace him
with man from the Holman
street district. either north or
south
The three members OF the board
OF works are East Siders." declared
Will Love. president OF the Holman
Street Improvement Association.
Their personal interests are all in
East State street aud Calumet ave-
nue."
"At a meeting with the board of
works Friday we were told by Mr..
Swanson, presiden- of the board of
works, that the city would not go
to the expense of having an expert
make an estimate OF the cost of
widening Holman street through
the downtown district until after
the Improvement was underway. or
rather beyond recall.
Il believe that the downtown
property owners are entitled TO
know about what this Improvement
is going to cost before it is started.
Although they are anxious to
widen the street there is a limit to
the amount they can pay. II is not
thing until we know what It will
cost. The Improvement will be of
city wide benefit and board of
works could go ahead and get an
estimate OF the cost If it was heart
and soul in the movement
Mr. Love declared that he be-
iieved Holman street should have
representation on the board of
works.
BY Holman street I mean the
great residential territory along
members of the board of works
have personal interests that might
very easily prejudice them against
the widening OF Holman street"
said Mr.. Love And while I do
not say that they are prejudiced in
this matter I do not believe the
attitude of Mr.. Swanson indicates
a very strong cooperation with
the Holman street property own
