OBJECT 10 SITE
FOR HIGH SCHOOL
Project of Directors Would In
jure Residence District,
Say Property-Owners.
HAVE ANOTHER SOLUTION
Favor Selling Block Just Bought
and Erecting w Build
ing on Site of -Present
West Side School.
Own of property adjoinlrur the block
bounded by Couch and Davis, Seven
teenth and Eighteenth street, the land
recently purchased by the Board of Ed
ucation, are protesting vigorously against
the proposed construction of a new West
Side High School on the property. The
protestants declare that the transaction
by which the new site was acquired was
conducted secTetly by the School Board,
without giving them an opportunity to be
heard. They consider that the plans in
dorsed by the Board of Education propose
an unnecessary Invasion of an exclusive
residence district to the detriment of es
tablished residence property.
While the complainants recognise that
the transaction by which the property
was purchased, has been consummated
and realise that protests at thla time are
of as much avail as the Investment of a
lock to the stable door after the horse
has been stolen, they will appeal to the
member of the Board of Education In
hope that their grievance may yet be
considered. They admit that the price
of $92,000 paid by the school district for
the ptroperty was a reasonable one. and
In fact a bangaln as a real estate Invest
ment, but lralst that the problem of pro
viding the necessary high school facilities
on this side of the river could have been
solved without the purchase of the block
which haa been bought.
Could Sell at Profit.
The complaining property-owners se
riously question the course that has been
adopted. In the first place, they contend
that the erection of a High School build
ing on the property that has been pur
chased will practically ruin that district
as a residence section. The protesting
parties propose to present for the con
sideration of the Board of Education
a proposal to dispose of the proper
ty that has been purchased, believ
ing that a sale could be made at a price
In advance of that paid for the property,
and then proceed to a solution of the
high school problem on the West Side In
accordance with the plan that will be
suggested by the Interested property
owners. These property-owners will suggest
that the money required for the purchase
of the block that has been bought be add
ed to the cost of the new High School
building that Is proposed and the com
bined fund be expended in the construc
tion of a new High School building on the
site of the present structure. It Is in
sisted that the location of the present
West Bide High School Is li-al and that
the best Interests of the district can be
served by reconstructing on the site a
building adequate to the needs of the dis
trict for years to com.e
Wnile such a structure Is being erected
it has been suggested that the Atkinson
building could be used temporarily ror
high school purposes. With the gradual
Invasion of the district In which the At
kinson school Is located by the wholesale
district, the attendance at this school Is
being reduced so that within a few years,
it Is alleged, the district will not re
quire so large a school building In that
section of the city. For these reasons
the complaining property-owners main
tain that If any of the property now
owned by the district Is to be sold It
would be more advisable to sell that on
which the Atkinson school is located.
Xo Opportunity to Protest.
"My objection to the proposed erection
of a new High School on the block that
has been purchased Is that It would face
mr residence property." said Judge
George H. Williams yesterday. "The
transaction by which this block was ac
quired was conducted secretly and the in
terested property-owners had no knowl
edge of the deal until after It had been
closed and a payment made on the pur
chase price. Of course It then was too
late for us to protest. In answer to ques
tions regarding the deal, members of the
School Board explain that no other de
sirable property was available. We may
decide to ask the Board to sell the prop
erty that has been bought, for we believe
It can be disposed of at an advance over
the consideration that was paid for It. If
the Board will consider such a suggestion
we will ask that some other site be se
lected or that the present building be re
modeled to meet the requirements of the
district."
While by no means satisfied with the
action of the School Board. Colonel D. M.
Dunne was Inclined to regard the situa
tion philosophically, although he will co
operate with his neighboring property
owners In any movement to prevent. If
possible, the building of another High
School on the site that has been pur
chased. Price Paid Was Reasonable.
"I would be exceedingly sorry to see a
High School built in the heart of the
residence district that has been selected."
said Colonel Dunne yesterday. "But the
purchase hse been made and what Is
the use of kicking about It? The district
surrounding the block bounded by Seven
teenth and Eighteenth. Couch and Davis
streets was established as a residence
dtstrlct 20 years ago. and only as an un
avoidable condition should the new High
School be located in the district that has
been chosen. I have no complaint to
make with the prloe paid by the district
for the property, for I consider it one
of the best real estate buys In the city,
but I am hopeful that some plan may be
devised by which the building may be
located elsewhere If the present facilities
cannot be enlarged sufficiently to meet
all demands."
"The erection of a High School build
nig on the block that has been purchased
by the Board of Education would spoil
that section of the city ss the exclusive
residence district it has been for over 20
years," said Paul Wesstnger. ' "I do not
wish to be understood as criticising the
members of the Board, for I realise It
is a hard matter to make a selection that
would prove satisfactory to all. In fact,
I would not discuss the subject if I did
cot have what I consider a practical so
lution to the problem of enlarging High
School facilities. I would suggest that
the school authorities use the Atkinson
building as a temporary High School and
expend the money that would be paid
for a new site and the erection of a new
building In replacing the present West
Side High School with a building of ade
quate capacity to meet the demands of
the district for years to come.
"In this way the purchase of an addi
tional site would not have been necessary
and the residence district into which it
is proposed to Introduce the new building
would not be harmed. People owning
property surrounding the present High
School building made the investment with
the knowledge that the building was es
tablished and probably would remain In
definitely for school purposes. The con
trary is true of the district adjacent to
the site that has been purchased for tbe
proposed new High School. Property that
was purchased In that district with the
general understanding that it would be
preserved as an exclusive residence dis
