    Proposed River
Drive Plan Will
Benefit Omaha
Civir and Religious Leaders
Unite to 1 rgc Support for
Bond Issue; to Vote
Tuesday.
The proposed river parkway, for
which a bond issue of $242,065 will be
1 voted on next Tuesday with which to
i acquire the necessary land along the
Missouri river front, is an excellent
investment for Omaha, in the opinion
of numerous men who have birn in
terviewed on the project.
The proposal has been endorsed by
. Dr. Harold C. Gifford. Monsignor
: Augustine M. Golaneri, chancellor of
{ the diocese of Omaha of the Roman
j Catholic church; Rev. o. C. Wilson,
J president of the Omaha Ministerial
j union; Rabbi J, Charlnp, pastor of the
t Orthodox Jewish congregation; J. B.
; Watkins, president of the Omaha
Auto club: Fred Barks, president of
j the South Omaha Merchants' assorln
5 tlon, and Roy Towl, landscape en

Omaha's Biggest Opportunity.
"This is Omaha's biggest opportuni
: ty to get a wonderful scenic parkway,
S one that possesses more beauty than
? any other city in the middle west is
able to boast," Dr, Gifford declared.
"I am greatly in favor of the
■ parkway project," Monsignor Colan
| eri declared. "It is just as important
! that we provide those tilings that
( nourish the people's love of the beau
! j tiful and provide for their rest and
; recreation, as to furnish those thjngs
; that have only a dollar and cents
i ! value. No city Is sufficient unless it
, { grasps Its opportunities to provide
I those things that are elevating and
| cultural, the things that appeal to the
J better natures of mankind. Omaha
| has such an opportunity in deVelop
I Jng this river parkway at a compnra
J tively small cost."
Big Dividends Seen.
I "The cost of the land for the river
(parkway is not worthy of considera
tion," Rev. C. C. Wilson said, in giv
5 lng his views on the project. "It
| should pay big dividends in the added
j beauty and advantages it will give
j Omaha. It will be a fine investment
I for not only nil of the present resi
; dents of Omaha, but for our future
generations.”
ltabbl Chnrlop predicts that the
} parkway will have a pulling power
? that will Increase Omaha's popula
t tlon. "Such a project Is a great help
i to any city,” he said. "It will help
make Omaha attractive and will ad
| vertlse the city to thousands who
J visit here annually. This In turn will
I help bring many people te Omaha to
make their homes."
Civic Pride Appeal.
"Civic pride should he sufficient In
centive to endorse the bond issue for
the river parkway," Fred Parks de
dared. "In addition, however, the in
creased values to other city property
through improvement of the river
front lowland, and the beautification
of Omaha's front, door" with a series
' of small parks for tig; enjoyment of
IS everyone, should give the bond issue
• a big majority next Tuesday."

leading character in Olga Petrova's
play, "Hurricane," which comes to the
F.randeis theater Sunday night, where
it will remain through Wednesday,
with a Wednesday matinee. Fetrova
herself appears in tne stclla role and
the force that urges Ilka forward in
her struggle for light is masterfully
handled by Petrova. In this role of
the heroine, she is given an oppor
tunity for the greatest emotional
work of her career, traveling the
gamut of hatred, pity, scorn and
love.
