PRESirNiCHOLS JUSnnESBANON WAOEMORIAL
Shows Why Viflage Board Was
Opposed to Chamber of
Commerce Plan
Hempstead. March 8—UnJcr thefBp i m, "Why the Village Board refii-sed tc I low the. Chamber of Commerce to erect •e monument on the spot in Fulton | ¦ rk." Vlllaee President .Tohn S. Nich-| •'s, Jr., hns i.ssued a statement settino , Tth the aituution from the standpoint ¦ tho Village Board.
Mr. Nichols, who i.s not a candidate] _ or reelection, sets forth the hlstoiy off le controversy, which Is expected lo I _ e the only issue before the pt^oplo at j b 10 village election on March 15. The | ^ ontention of the President, who has; f een sustained by tho Village Board, I.s i ^ 'at the name of the Chamber of Com- '.crco should not appear on the tablet •1 the monument. When the Chamber ^fused to change tho Inscription, the 'oard revoked the ptrmil to place the lonumcnl In the park and have ni",-l petition with tho Koard calling for thf •bmlsslon of the fiucstion to the t.ix- nyers rt the village election. Mr. Nil hols' statement followa: •'.\t a meeting of the Beard of 'ru.stees ot this village held on Juni- . 1920, a request was made by the •hnmber of Commerce for permis:iion o erect In Fulton Pfirk. a monument o commemorate the meniM-y of tl-'" ¦nldiers who died in" the service of their
quest.
"At that meeting the Board asked to be shown the plans, and while this could not be granted .at that time, wc; Wre assured that the stone and t.iblet would be In every way suitable, and any further details that might arise would be put in my hands for settlement. That .apparently endoil the matter. ,
''Shortly after that meeting, I began to consider the most appropriate spot for the monument, and also, naturally wondered what the Inscription would be and concluded to look Into that phane of the matter and further con.sequently wrote Mr. Hinkle, President ot the Chamber of Commerce on June 2, 1920 nnd suggested to him, that he have the monument placed directly in front and about twenty feet south of the center of the fountain In Fulton Park, and also stated ns follows:
Last night you gave us some idea of what the monument would look like. Have you any plans drawn and could I see them at your convenience? Is it your intention to place on tlu- tablet only names of the dead with the possible exception of stating tho number who wont Into the service from this village? I have the Impression that It Is your intention of
havlnit placed on thta tablet j only the namiea ot those who | made the supreme sacriflee, and that there will not be made |
on the monument any reference 1
whatsoever as fo the name, or mimea, of the donor or receiver. "The day following the i«celpt of tbIa | letter by Mr. Hinkle, I was called on j tho 'phone and asked to attend Di meet- j Ing of the "Chamber of Commence" that j same evening which 1 did, and the mat¬ ter regarding the tablet w.as fully dis-1 cu8.sed. They Informed me that In nrf- | ditlontotheregular Inscription, they also, liad Intended to have on tne tablet, tnat I it was erected through the efforts of the \ "Cluamber of Commerce." 1 made stren- j iinua objections to this, staling clearly j that it was a sacred matter, nnd that the Board of Trustees would no doubt object on tbe grounds that it liad a aemblance of advertising and called at¬ tention to the fact, that It waa a public ground and could not be used for adver¬ tising purpo8«»«.
"After considering my objection, they arrived nt an understanding and It was ,igreed In no uncertain way, that all reference to the name of the -donor would be omitted from the tnblet. I left that meeting feeling sure that what 1 had askexl them to do was right and that the trustees would concur In what I h.ad done, and that tho people at large would approve also.
"Shortly following that meeting 1 dis¬ cussed the matter with my fellow mem¬ bers of the Board, and it was agreed that I had acted wisely. From that time until December .Ird, no furiher thought was given the matter, when on that
date, I liyarttoA the stone and tablet ha arrived and upon invvstlKatlon four th.at In tip f.ar a.s ."howing the nartle i the donor w.as conc:erned. It w.as in dlr- opposition to wh.at had b«»«n actreed ni on. Immediately fnatn-ctions were givi that the stone wna hot to be placed u on village property—I made u person investigation and found on the itbU the following inscription:
i"Bre<-ted with the contributions raised by the Hempstead Cliam- I>er of Commerce."
"I shall not attempt to describe hei my personal feelings when 1 had rea the above, suffice to say, a special mee ing ot the Board was called and th mombers of the Chamber of Commerc' given an opportunity to explain tho action. The Board of Trustees eiTilaine in no uncertain manner, their feelint so far as the action of the Cliamber i. Commerce was conccrne<l.
"A' temporary adjournment wa.s the-
j taken to give the Chamber of Comm<>r'
an opportunity to discuss the mntti
further: we rea-ssembled whereiipo
I their Secretary read the resolution thf
had pa-^sed to the effect, that If th
i Board of Trustees did not grant pe
mlK.sion to place the stone and tablet :
\ it was it -would l»e removed the follov
I ing day.
1 "The Board then passed a rcsolutlo I that permission would not be grante 1 and the stone w.is removed. i "I havo tried to put this matter br fo I the people as dearly as possible in o.-d I to give them a concise rea.son why t' I Village Board hn.s refused permis.sion ti I the Chamber of Commerce to erect th< memorial to Hempstead's brave bo\

LOOKING FOR A DROP?
No need to look for that in building material prices, because we have already dropped.
We have consistently followed the market, up and down, which is the only businesslike way to do.
We would also remind you that even at the top prices our share of your building was never more-than one-third of the total cost of the completed work, oftentimes much less.
If we reduce our third of your cost by one-third, that means that our portion of the reduction is one-ninth of the total cost. That's our share.
Here are some of the actual reductions we have made from our highest prices.

"If the Chamber of Commerce wished ¦) prove that the memo.'iat wa.s a pure ibute to the dead, they could have had elr name taken from tbe tablet when ->rmission would have been granted lem to erect the memorial in the six)t tended for It.
"We felt that a principle was involved ud we .saw that it was Mpheld. If tlno 'hambor of Commerce bad wifthed to avo their name on the tablet, why -)uld they not liave been open and bove board, and declared that the loniiment would not be erected on vil-
ge property unless their name apiiear- 1 on it inste.id of agreeing with the tpre«,se<l wishes of the Village Board nd then apparently, disregarding all ut their own wishes in the matt* r.
