After heirs promised that no df. tir.i'e aetioti would he taken, at a 'ali'- l ineetlnt; of the board of jub-l;i-works, the bord of park commissioners 'xperted andh r Ir.t rviw with the bo.ird fif jiublic works. fierta ininu to the imrrovernen i and mu'h to their Mjrprie. the next rnnrnlr.K Warned (Jf the contirnrtt:on jf the improvement. The board immediately employed as co'jnr il. Samuel l.ir!ar, II. 1 Yratr- ' and former lty Atty. Kli I". .ebirt and r reived th lr w ritten opinions that the park board was correct In It con ter.tlon. n rennest of th mayor wo had ve f ral rne tlnk's between our board, with council and the board of pub

lic works and city attorney, at wh'ch

t:nv a (ntract was drawn whfreb the board of public works would pav Calvert -t. down to the nr tranc r.f Htndehakrr park and the board of park commissioners would "pen up and pave a winding drive'A ay through the park. At this time, we were assured by the board of public wor'.:s that we inicht lay i't and put through, any Mrt of a driveway we saw tit and It would be perfectly agreeable with the board of works. Just o that the stn-et was opened up for traflic through the park. It was lat r aKrd that the board f wrks mitcht let the cntract for the Rradinic and pavinpr of the drive through the park, subject to the park board's approval. U'e Iminedlatf ly asked the ity nKineer to lay out this driveway to c)iiforni with our ideas and submit blue prints of same to the board of public works. This arrangement made it necessary to purchase two lots at the cast entrance of the park. An ordinance was drawn up asking the council for an appropriation to purchase these lots which was refused. We then asked the city engineer to prepare a new drawinpr which would not make- it neessiry to r. urcha.-e the above mentioned lots. After this was completed we found it was necessary to remove on? or two cry beautiful trees, each of which represent at least 100 years of growth, or throw the driveway so near private property, we would be liable for damages. w therefore narrowed the driveway from HO to Jo f-t which the board felt and we still feel, will be ample width to t;ik care of any traffic which may i sc this driveway. This would not only preserve the trees bjt keep dri-way the necessary distance

from private property and save to the tax payers, onc-thlrd the rxpene to the board of public work? In writing and much to the surprise of the hoard of park commis'-ioner?, our communication wa never even acknowledged but the 20 foot driveway was taken ur. and advertised for Improvement which was not only in dirct violation of the t-Ined contract made between the board of park commissioners and the board of public work?, but wo believe In ftrirt violation of the law, as the park board had no funls whatever for tho Improving of this driveway and we contend that it would be necessary for an appropriation to to made by the council before the contract cculd be, legally let. even if there had never been a F'ned contract between the board of park commissioners and the board of publie work. In addition to the 16,000 for the cradins and paving of this driveway, it will also cost the county approximately for the buildlnp of a culvert across Ilowman creek, a larpre part of which of course comes from the tax payers of South I5end. It is possible that this, 'so-called imr rovernent, would be of pome benefit to ä few residents alons Calvert H., but for a necessary thorouphfare. w did not. a.s members of the board of park commissioners and lo not at this time feel that it was anyways near as much Fervlce to the tax payers of South Hend as it would be to a few real estate promoters who are opening tracts of pround in this neighborhood for settlement. As past members of the board, w deny the fact that the Interference of the park board was In any way to blame for the extra cost that is bclns thrown on the property owners residing alons Calvert St.. but n the other hand, if the board of park commissioners had been accorded the least consideration at the time the controversy arose, there would have probably been no controversy but as the matter was handled, the conferences took up considerable time. The county commissioners, of course, could not have properly 1 t the contract for th culvert until the boards agreed and after this agreement was reache!. bids had to be advertised three times on account of same belnt: hitrher than the engineer's estimates, which took fo much time it had to be carried over until 1920.

A.s tax payers, we know that the council meeting last Monday the appropriation of over until they were sonally Inspect the provement. After this

will be relieved from all responsibility for the expenditure. We miKht further add that thU KO.00Q which we claim to be a aaste of public r.cney, is about twothirds a-s much a.s all money expended for the maintenance and Improvement of the park properties of tho city yearly. Could this amount of money be appropriated for real park improvements, the tax payers would receive much more benefit for the money Invested. CA I iL. I). lUlITTON. IK YIN W. JACKSON".
