the City-County Auditorium Board, Mayor Kern today went on record as

apolis.

“I am convinced of its desirabil- |

ity,” he said. “The only doubt is as to its feasibility.” A public meeting, from which he hopes to gauge public sentiment, has been called by the Mayor for Monday afternoon in the City Council chamber. Meanwhile. Henry Davis, Indianapolis Convention Bureau manager, estimated that such a building would net the city more than & million dollars annualy in Disiness. The cost of an adequate structure, he said, woud not exceed $2.000,000

Two Tvpes Considered

Kern declined to whether he favored a& -municipall owned auditorium, as provided by the 1937 Legislature, or one which a private syndicate has been promoting lately under a 1927 act of the Legislature, and which would be leased to the city. Under law, to 2 per cent of the assessed valua- | tion of Marion County propersy for $12.000,000. The survey, after most large cities have publiclyowned auditoriums and some pri-vately-owned ones, outlined four requirements for success: 1. Good location. | 2. Type of building—should have a main arena seating 10.000 people, number of smaller rooms, anda adequate exhibit space. 3. A simple, substantial architec- | ture. 4. Proper management.

Constantly in Use The auditoriums surveyed were in use constantly and the entire city shared in the benefits, according to the survey. One Mayor replied that the auditorium was used 850 times in one vear and that only about 12 per cent of the performances were conventions, the others representing municipal activities. He added that a public auditorium is “the heart of community life.” Mr. Davis said there are about 25.000 organizations in the country which represent a potential market for the proposed auditorium. Many, such as the American Bar, American Dental and American

cause of a lack of adequate facilities. Conventions of this size and character need exhibit space, large seating capacity, and centrally located meeting places, he said. At present, there is nothing in the city of this nature, he declared. If the private syndicate builds the auditorium under the 1927 act, it would lease the assembly room to the City which in turn would rent it to conventions and social, business and cultural gatherings in order to pay for the lease. The private group, represented by Miller, attorney, has pro- ' posed to build a hotel and office space along with the auditorium.
