FAIR HILL SITES
Plans for extensive buildings and
mode, roads and drives for the Lake
wood Park exposition will be taken up
tomorrow, following the action of the
city council committee on charter
amendments yesterday afternoon in
recommending steps to make the Indus
trial exhibit possible. /A committee,
composed of Aldine Chambers. William
Lawson Peel and S. B. Turman, will
visit the grounds tomorrow afternoon,
accompanied by President Wilmer L.
Moore and Secretary W. G, Cooper of
the Chamber of Commerce, to choose
the best sites for buildings.
Lakewood park, the site of the old
waterworks and now leased to private
parties as an amusement park, is one of
the most beautiful tracts near Atlanta.
It is owned by the city, and it is now
proposed to get a charter amendment
enabling the city gnveranient to deed
the property to a prixdK corporation
which will control the This
step is taken to avoid civic liability for
debts of the exposition, and when the
exhibits are discontinued the property
will be deeded back to the city. Bonds
are proposed to pay for buildings and
other improvements to cost $5(10.000,
and a publlo vote will be held before
the bond issue Is authorized.
Fair To Be Held Aryytally.
The exposition will require many
months work and will be an annual af
fair for manufacturers, agriculturists
and others. Products of many states
will be exhibited. It is to be patterned
after the Canadian National exposition,
held each year in Toronto, which has
brought million# of dollars to that city.
Probably the first exposition in At
lanta will be held In 1914. to be fol
lowed by one each year thereafter. It
is to be conducted under supervision of
the Chamber of Commerce, and, though
the entire Southeast will he represent
ed, the displays largely will represent
the variety of industries reached
through this city.
A numbr of permanent buildings will
probably be erected at Lakewood in
the next few months,
