LIBERAL SUPPORT NOW
PRACTICALLY
ASSURED
NEXT ROSE FESTIVAL
'Action of Seattle- in Proposing
to Hold Similar Event Has
Aroused Big Concern Here.
Active soliciting of funds for the 1914
I Rose Festival has been suspended until
i after the holidays.
"Sentiment In favor of larger siib
scriptions Is growing;, particularly since
. the announcement has been made that
Seattle has given up the Fotlatch and
will endeavor to have a rose how,"sald
C C. Colt, president of the association,
.today.
. There la a stronger public spirit that
the Rose Festival should be maintained
on a larger and more liberal scale, aa it
- is evident that Seattle is only too will
ing and anxious to grab the prestige
that Portland has already established
as the Rose City.
"It is believed from the sentiment ex
pressed by the larger business concerns
of the city that tbey will support the
Rose Festival more liberally than In the
. past, provided the general public also
. gives 'liberal support."

The chamber appealed some time eo

Weather reports are now received by

That the park improvement bond
contain no adequate allowance for Play
grounds is the basis of a complaint
raised by members Of the Vsrnon
Parent-Teacher association against tho
Donas memseives ana against commis
sioner Brewster in his administration
or the parks and playgrounds. "
At a meeting bold at the Vernon
school yesterday, the association em
phatically turned down a proposition
broached by Mr. Brewster In tha profer
or a email paten of land where the Ver
non water tower is situated. This is
scorned by the Vernon residents aa
hopelessly Inadequate for Play Pur
poses in that It Is so smalt aa to bs use
less for baseball and other games for
Doys.
Members of the association aomplaln
that the bonds fail because no provision
Is made for playgrounds. They assert
that the park equipment ia sufficient
for the present, but the chief need In
the heavily populated districts such as
Vernon, Woodlawn and Highland is
playgrounds to accommodate tho school
population of about 6000 In those die
trlots. Vernon residents are strong in
their denunciation of the city officials,
They complain that their children have
no place to play and that the city au
thoritles show no disposition to remedy
this condition.
At yesterday's meeting of the ass'
elation its president was instructed to
write Commissioner Brewster again
setting forth the demands of the Ver
non residents. Mre. Arestene Felts,
president of the Oregon Congress of
Mothers, addressed the meeting on
progressive education, while H, H.
Bushnell spoke en the need of parlia
