until such time that a special
Board meeting could be called to
consider this matter at the SEES
sion exclusively.
Felton's report was one of the
last presented at yesterdays

willing to cooperate with the

Jackson st. Area Firms to Study
Three-Day Celebration Plan

promote understanding among diff
ferent groups advertise the area,
and stimulate business.
Although only tentative plans
have been msde until the people
of the neighborhood have had an
opportunity to express their ideas,
temporary committee appointed
by the jackson Street Community
Council has been studying the pro-
posal.
Suggestions have been made that
the theme and the entertainment be
International featuring music, dam
cling and parades with each nat
ional and cultural group contribut-
ing. Concession booths could bc
managed by various organizations
TO raise funds for their TREASURES
and to advertise their programs.
The affair would require city
wide advertising to attract people
from all over Seattle and could
appropriately feature imported mer-
chandise not available elsewhere.
Art exhibits and handicrafts by
local artists could be displayed. and
fashion shows of Oriental costumes
could be produced Street decora
tons and displays by houses and
organizations would be an impor
tant feature.
A letter explaining the proposal
will go out to all organizations and
business this week, together with
simple check list on which indi-
viduals and groups can record their
ideas. according TO Yoshito Fulfil,
chairman of The temporary PLAN
ming committe.
I'VE will make an attempt to
reach everyone" Full said, but
It is entirely possible that we do
not have everyone's name This is
especially true of organizations not
affiliated with the council. We urge
that anyone who is interested In
this affair or who has ideas that
should be considered, get In touch
with the Council office at 414
Fifth Ave. So or phone Sc 3073
1T has been estimated that the
celebration will cost at least $4,000.
and we know that there will be
lots Of hard work involved. The
council docs net want to attempt
any ;uch RAZOR undertaking I'M
less we are convinced that 1t Is
something the community wants
and will back. We hone that every
one will return the check list
whether he thinks the celebration
should he put on or not"

sisting of Alex Bishop. Chin Han.
