THE CINCINNATI ENQUIRER 4. Friday, April 9, 1948 RESENTMENT Is Voiced By FCA At Not Getting Bid To Library Site Meeting. "Another Texas City" May Be Riverside, Delegates Say--Tanks Cited. Charges that the public meeting on a new library site at the Hotel Gibson Wednesday was "packed" and other charges that "another Texas City is going up in Riverside" were voiced at the monthly meeting of the Federated Civic Association at the Hotel Sinton last night. Conditions which resulted in almost blasting Texas City, off the map in a series of explosions which caused heavy loss of life are repeated in the building of gasoline-storage tanks along Western Cincinnati's river bank, delegates from that territory complained, "We're jarred for a half-mile when just a gasoline truck blows up-think what it would be if those tanks started!" one delegate said.

Another pointed out that the proximity of the railroad and of plane traffic for the Greater Cincinnati Airport in Boone County, just across the river. created danger of accidents which might touch off a series of blasts. LETTER IS REQUESTED. Louis L. Meyer, President, asked the delegates to submit to the FCA letter of protest they are sending to officials, so that the FCA also may take the matter up formally.

The next meeting of the FCA will have the problem of a public library site as its principal business. Sherwood Reeder, who showed slides at the Gibson meeting, will be asked to repeat the program and tell why the Master Plan favors a Fourth and Main Streets site. Charles J. Armstrong was appointed to provide a speaker to present the case for other sites. The FCA went on record last year as favoring a site as near as possible to the present one on Vine Street above Sixth.

Delegates expressed resentment in last night's discussion because the FCA, representing more than 50 civic associations throughout the county, had not been asked to join in sponsoring the meeting. Armstrong said there had been "claque" for the Fourth Street site. ON BRIGHTER SIDE. On the brighter side, the Federation heard reports that: (1) a half-dozen industries are eager to take over the Southside Avenue Standard, Brands employment plant, which for many long families in down-river communities; (2) permanent lights for night games may be in place on Bank Street playground by midsummer, and (3) theater managers in many communities actually are taking financial losses in order to provide wholesome Saturday afternoon programs for children. A report by John J.

Behle, Chairman of the Industrial and Business Expansion Committee, said the plans to move the Standard Brands operations to an Illinois plant already were too far advanced to save the industry for the Cincinnati community. One reason given for the moving, he reported, that company figured the sewage disposal system which Cincinnati must build would cost $500,000. But Mrs. A. H.

Mincow said persons threatened with loss of employment by the move should find comfort in reliable reports that a half-dozen lively industries were eager to get the plant. It also was Mrs. Mincow who reported, as Chairman of the Child and General Welfare Committee, that a survey among theater managers and parent and youth groups disclosed many managers, although obliged to take certain pictures under block booking, were running others instead for children's matinees, at a loss to themselves.
