Payment Refused When the tax collection per iod arrived March 1. 1921, the automobile company was in pos session of several cars on which Huge StllTl is Banked words. I do not think Salem can afford to miss this opportunity. E. S. Hammond. I believe the city should take over the tract if it can be bought at a reasonable price, for parR and playgrounds. J. A. Jetfer son. This is an opportunity Salem pfconld not pass by. To acquire this property now means a Urge' $upreme Qour Interprets saving for the future. P. L. Tt- a . ter. I agree with you that the spot mentioned should be quickly pur chased by the city. The city needs i it badly. It should be a children's park. E. E. Fisher. Ten. 20, 50 years from now our failure to preserve this property for the public good will be re garded as inexcusable from any standpoint. Paul B. Wallace. Parrish Park Suggested Since the auto camp grounds is now dosed to our Salem child ren, I am infavor of securing this tract as a playground and park. Glen C. Niles. VHave orten thought of the grove as good property for tne city to buy for a park. Wouldl be glad to see a playground there. Mrs. F. W. Selee. Presuming the 6Tove on the property formerly owned by J. L Parrish is meant, I favor preserv ing it as a public park to be call ed Parrish park. George II. Bur nett. I am certainly in favor of se curing the above property for a public playground. 1 should like also to the city secure the fir grove on the river road just north of the poor farm. Luther J. Chapin. A park like the one mentioned would be a desirable asset to the city for all time. The only thing to be considered is finance. If the price is reasonable and the city can afford the outlay, the tract should be secured. Frank Davey, Villa A. Davey. I think the day will come when we will appreciate our parns more than we do today. While such places are available I think they should be secured. C. fa-Hamilton. Future Looked To 1 very much approve of the city taking over the above pro perty. It is essential for the fu ture welfare of the community that good schools, churches and liosnltala be maintained. H. W. Meyers. The city or the school board should secure this tract. If the city could purchase this tract H would be a credit to the people of today and a pleasure to future generations. Gideon Stols. ' In my opinion it would be to the best advantage of the city to procure this property for a park and am willing to cooperate in any way to the betterment of the city of Salem. George E. Iiai- vorsen. Depends upon the details, price, etc.,. but as a matter , of principle I favor such parks. I now pay taxes into the "four figures" and vould be willing to pay more on this if the details are satisfactory. E. A. Rhoten. I believe in our city securing public parks and now is the time to secure the desirable places. The one mentioned Is particular ly-suitable for a park or play ground, and should be secured by the city on the basis mention ed. W. T. Jenksj Safer is Skeptical Too indefinite: I want to know amount and price. I went to see the owner at one time with the view ot getting it for a camp ground but the claims were too high. I am for it at a reasonable price. Li. H. Suter. The health and attractiveness of Salem should be the concern of her- citizens as well as business. The park mentioned would be a great asset for both.

The company re fused payment on the grounds that the automobiles were taxable only under the automobile license law and not under the general laws for the taxation of personal property. The sheriff proceeded to collect the tax, but was held up by a temporary restraining order. A demurrer was interpos ed by the sheriff, and this was sustained by the court.

Some person able to do so might well make the city such a gift, since there would be no chance that the city would fcuv it. H. B Gile. Would be In favor ot this if it could be done with little expense to the city. Will not be in favor of paying any fancy price to zome one who is trying to put some real estate deal over on the council. Ralph Thompson. I think it a very wise deal for the city of Salem to buy this piece of property for a city park It is too valuable a piece of pro perty to be cut into city lots. Joseph Domagalla. Bealtor For It I am In favor of the city tak ing over the above-mentioned tract. Trees can be destroyed In a few minutes but It takes years to grow them- That practice has been the ruination of beauti ful building lots in Salem. By all means take it over. D. D. Soco lofsky. This Is one of the pretuest spots in Salem and I would very much like to see this taken over by the city. I hope that ar rangements can be made to do so. This would make an ideal play ground. We should not overlook this opportunity. E. C. Patton I am heartily in favor of the HtT of Salem takin? over this beautiful spot In commemoration of Rev. J. L. Parrish, an early pioneer and one of the 52 .men who organized the provisional government at Champoeg, May 2, 1843. Salem needs more parks Florence Irwin. I think this is a good move and think the city should take this property over. But the pur chase price will have to be raised separate from the city budget We have no available money for cuch purchases now. O. L. Scott. If we let this opportunity sHp, we will say In the future as we are saying now about the pur chase of Falrmount park "If we only had." Salem has done very little in a civic way for a good many years if ever. Why not commence now? I vote yes. c O. Rice. Should IV Monument Let those sturdy trees stand as a monument to the pioneer MethodiBt minister, Rev. J. L Parrish. In addition thereto with little expense, a dam could be built In the creek and it would afford . , a good bathing place for the young people ot Salem. Retain It as one of the frhow places of Salem. Aug riuckestein. Think it Imposible to save all these beauty spots. Today I hav a crew of men hired at my own expense trying to make passable the street passing one of these unsold oak g-roves on South Lib erty street. The city now, and for years has left unimproved a dangerous street seven blocks from the business center. Carey P. Martin. Salem, unauestionably. should Lave more playground for cb'ild ren. They day of children piay ing on the streets is pract'cally eliminated and we must provide suitable grounds for their safety. The above property would make an ideal spot and it is to be hop ed that the city will not let an ODDortunltv nass to purchase It tf it can be had at a reasonable figure. Homer H. Smith.'
