TURMAN DISCUSSES PROPOSED EXPOSITION AT LAKEWOOD PARK And in Behalf of the South Side Demands a “Square Deal” —Says the “Merchants” and Financiers Need Not Be “Alarmed.” — Ist. It is understood that this is not any movement for a TEM PORARY Eair or Exposition; it is not a ‘‘one year'' business. 2d. Behr in mind that the CITY OWNS this BEAUTIFUL PROPERTY, consisting of over 300 acres of ground. 3d. If handled at all. it will be handled in away which need not be a burden on any citizen of Atlanta. 4th. The plan is that these improvements will be made from TIME TO TIME or from year to year so as to construct according I Io a permanent plan, extending over a long period of years. sth. The development of this propertv will not ONLY BE A DIRECT BENEFIT and PLEASURE to the' CITIZENS of the entire city and county, but will be a GREAT ADVERTISEMENT for the city, the merchants and the whole stale of Georgia. It should within a short period begin to return an ANNUAL DIVIDEND to the CITY, as in the cases of Dallas. Texas, and To ronto, Canada. 6th. It is not likelv THAT ANY FAIR-MINDED CITIZEN or TAXPAYER, be he MERCHANT, BANKER or POLITICIAN, can interpose any just opposition for this plan and scheme. This should NOT be a sectional matter, bill if any citizen or poli tician should oppose this plan, for any selfish motive, then the entire section, known as the territory lying south of the Georgia railroad pind Marietta street, can join in MAKING it a SECTIONAL issue, and <>emanding a “square deal on this platform. • The PROPERTY owners ami TAXPAYERS in this section have contributed money and their time in the development and aiding of expositions and lairs heretofore HELD ON THE NORTH SIDE; and do not object to their pro rata ol taxes, which are being paid through the city and slate of Georgia for the maintenance of such institu tions as the Garnegie Library, the Technological college, etc., on the port h side. THE CITY COUNCIL OBLIGATED THE CITY OF ATLANTA Io spend $40,000 on the Lakewood Park property, in order to get the members of the council from the south side to vote for the enormous sum of money which was expended on Piedmont Park, to make the first big Exposition a success. Recently many of us subscribed and. paid for stock in the auto mobile race track, at College Park, not with any view of making money, but to aid in an enterprise which promised to be of benefit to . 1 he city generally. X'<> fair-minded citizen of Atlanta, or Fulton county, wherever they may live, will stand in the way of a “square deal, ' or fail to MANIFEST THE "Atlanta spirit' in “putting over " this project which is not onl\ feasible ami practical, but which will be of as GREAT CORRESPONDING BENEFIT AS ANY SCHEME UNDER TAKEN in RECENT YEARS for which the citizens have contributed liberally, including the BROUGHTON’S Tabernacle Fund. the annex to the TECHNOLOGICAL COLLEGE, the AGNES SCOTT COL LEGE, the new Young Men's Christian Association building and the pew ('handier of ('omimwee (to be BUILT ON THE NORTH SIDE). It is not contemplated that any citizen will be called upon to make any large contribution. 11 is not necessary that the grounds be completed by 1914. but it is NECESSARY and it is IMPORTANT to “MAKE A START’’ and have a well-defined plan which contem plates the erection of PERMANENT BUILDINGS and PERMANENT IMPROVEMENTS to serve the public for all time so come. BY REFERENCE TO THE CITY MAP, it will be seen that the SAME “CIRCLE" runs through the NORTH SIDE of the LAKE WOOD PARK near South Pryor street where it is proposed to build the permanent improvements as RUNS THROUGH the NORTH END of PIEDMONT PARK PROPERTY. At the same time that the enormous sum of money was spent by i the citv of Atlanta and Fulton coiintv on Piedmont Park, the CITY DID NOT OWN ANY PART OF THAT PROPERTY, but was owned I y PRIVATE CITIZENS, it being years after before the city acquired ’ I lie land. IT IS PROPOSED TO USE SOUTH PRYOR STREET to this park (being the north side ol the Lakewood property), the Southern railroad having already agreed to co-operate in building an under pass on South Pryor st reel al the crossing near the Alexander Lum ber Company and the old glass works. The properl' is EASILY ACCESSIBLE for the STREET CAR COMPANY, FOR DRIVING ami WALKING. Prom FOUR TO SIX OF THE MAIN STREET CAR LINES < an be extended to this point with comparatively little expense. It is not likely that any well-informed ami unprejudiced citizen of l-'ulton counts will do anything that would show such an utter disregard for the Atlanta spirit as would the opposing of this move ment . The Fillion county commissioners and the city council have al ready indorsed the scheme; we DEMAND a FAIR DEAL, a square deal, and an HONEST ENDEAVOR to discharge the moral and legal obligation of the citv Io develop this propertv, which is so desirable ami capable of such WONDERFUL IMPROVEMENT at COMPAR ATIVELY SMALL ACTUAL OUTLAY. It is likely that after the first three or four years it can be made to pav NOT ONLY THE INTEREST on anv bonds which may be sold ('and it is not CONTEMPLATED that ALL OF THE BONDS should be sold immediately, out FROM TIME TO TIME as |he pro ceeds mav be expended to advantage . but be able to produce an IN COME Im FURTHER IMPROVEMENT ON THE PROPERTY. Let us have a fair trial without any "PACKED jury." What Dallas. Texas, and Toronto. Canada, did. Atlanta can also do. S B.
