It is likely that for several years to come, Livingston's share will be only about one-fifth this amount, or less than $1,500 a year, because early planning does not cost much money. "The new Authority, working in close harmony with the federal, state, county and other agencies which will actually finance and build the parks, parkways, express highways and bathing beaches that are so badly needed in this area, will be in a position to see to it that many times this small amount will be spent in this county.

This is the opinion of 11.

Bruce McPherson of Howell, who is a member of the general committee rf the Detroit-Huron-Clinton Park and Parkway Association, the civic organization which is furthering proposal. Upon the passage of the proposal, McPherson explained, a Metropolitan Authority, or Commission, will be established for the of Livingston, Wayne, Washtenaw, Oakland and Macomb. This Authority will be empowered to plan, develop and maintain adequate public parklands, playgrounds, bathing beaches and other recreational facilities and also parkways, or limited access express highways, serving all parts the five-county area. "Wayne county, having greatest population and the most wealth of any county in the area, will pay the major part of the expense necessary to maintain the Authority," McPherson explained.

Smith and family. Word has been received that Mrs. Effie Danziger (nee Effie Phillips) is leaving her home at people of the county, he said. "Passage of the Parkway-Playground Proposal means safe, fast, convenient express highways, capable of taking the county's residents to and from the heart of Detroit in two-thirds their present driving time, with no traffic lights, intersections or congestion to cause delay," he pointed out. The plan also means a development of the county's natural resources that bring desirable new residents here.

A similar plan in Greater New York City accomplished just this for outlying counties. The plan will bring hundreds of thousands of new tourist dollars here each year, for parklands and playlands attract profitable tourist trade. And the plan will create a great ideal of additional employment for our citizens.
