"It you want to put Omaha on the map. you've got to boost for a charter with laws that wo can live under," said Park Commissioner Joo B. Hummel, at a meet ing of the Equal Franchise society held at the homo ot Mrs. Henry Doorly Thurs day afternoon. "Omaha Is on the, Lin coln highway and If wo are to Impress tourists with any Idea of tho possibilities of our city a great many Improvements ought to bo made In the park and boule vard system of Omahs. "The funds at the disposal ot each of tho departments of tho city government ai o Inadequate," said Mr. Hummel, "but especially Is this truo of tho park depart ment. Tho trouble Is that this city docs everything gratis, whllo in other cities there aro occupation taxes and wheel taxes for vehicles, which aro turned Into the park and boulevard maintenance fund. Why. look at tho hundreds of automobiles around tho Brandols building any day In tho week.' If tho owners had to pay 3 a year for tho privilege, wouldn't wo have a flno Income to spend for our parks and playgroundsT' Corporations She nil Help. Mr. Hummel also stated that municipal corporations which were on a paying basis ought to nuslst In the upkeep of de partments which needed the funds. "Tho thing to do Is to go down to Lincoln and mend tho laws governing metropolitan cities," he snld. "There Is a great deal of talk about city officials going on 'Junket ing' trips, It Is truo, but there Is a great deal to be learned from other cities. Wo can't apply what wo learn in many in stances, however, becauso to do so would bo to conflict with tho stato law. That law ought to bo changed." "That's what wo'ro going to do, Mr. Hummel," sang out nn enthusiastic suf- frngtst. Oraahans also need education In cleanli ness and tidiness about yards and alleys, according to Mr. Hummel, who gave numerous Instances also of vandalism in tho destruction of flowers and young trees In tho city parks and' oven of steal ing lead- pipes In park plumbing. Faclnic Auto Problem. "Tho automobile traffic problem on tho boulovards Is assuming such proportions that it' Is dangerous for grown-ups, let alone children," ho said. Supervised play grounds for tho children and nn extension of tho boulevard system to alleviate tho congestion wcro advocated by tho park commissioner. "I am doing everything I can to keep the children off tho streets and in safety and I wish to call upon public-spirited citizens to help me." Following his talk Sirs. Z. T. Llndsey, who presided, wanted to know If any ono had any question to ask Mr. Hummel. Mrs. ThomaB Brown Jumped to her feet. "Why can't wo have speeches In the parks, Mr. Hummel?'' she asked. Ho was forced to explain his action and stated that ho had many Jetters from other city officials oil over tho country who adopted tho same policy of refusing to permit speeches in the parks. Should Take Up Lacnl A'pedii. "How can tho suffragists holp?" asked Mrs. George Bltgh. "Thoy can do a great deal," replied Mr. Hummel, "by talking up the needs of the city and getting things started." A note of , thanks from Secretary ot Stato Bryan on receipt of Mrs. E. M.
