OAKLAND FORGING AHEAD THROUGH IMPROVEMENT ORGANIZATIONS SANTA FE IMPROVEMENT CLUB A FACTOR IN OAKLAND'S PROGRESS How One of the Largest Civic Bodies of the State Has Benefited Its Home District And Set an Example of Model Organization and Effective Work CHARLES FRANCIS ADAMS During the last five years Oakland's progress! has been very pronounceo A spirit of "progressive citizenship has been manifested which never before seemed.to Vast plans involving large expenditures of money have been prepared. These have been undertaken with Among these enterprises the expenditure of $50,000,000 for the construction of a harbor. Day, and night dredges and barges? are working to construct-- a basin along the water front suitable for dockage and warehouse facilities. A bond Issue of several million dollars was voted for the erection of a.new city hall, for a municipal and for playgrounds. The spirit which has stood behind movements is exemplified in the? Oakland Chamber of Commerce and such 7 organizations as the Santa.Fe Improvement club.

Due' credit must also be 'given to the lott administration, which has shown Itself eager and capable of un- any project that is for the best of" Oakland. Foremost among the improvement clubSjOf Oakland in the battle for civic betterrtient is' the Santa Fe Improve- ment club. This organization the largest, and most substantial in Ala- i meda county, It has a paid up membership of more than 600. It owes its stability to the fact that it remained' absolutely nonpolltical. They tub asks for no patronage, no political favors.

It supports no candidates. Its actions are not in. any man- ncr aped by; any political: bias. Because at its attitude maintained through four years of successful its meet with careful consideration and its judgment is respected. x' The association was organized in 1907 with'a charter membership of .40.

F. h. Shaw was "elected? as the first president and been unanimously five successive The territory the club extends from Adeline street avenue and fivom Fifty-first to Alt catraz avenue? What this club has done might well be taken as an example citizens of any community; can accomplish they will band together and work in "harmony for the advancement of their district. Shortly before the organization of the club the, district- had a population of about 1,000. Today the population is 8,000.

Few, if any, other districts about the. bay can show a more rapid growth. In a city like Oakland or Berkeley, where a great many new tracts of land been put upon the market in recent years, and where great are offered, this growth is remarkable. It is not due to mere chance. The improvement association has been the direct means of making district more convenient to live in.

These features appealed homeseekers and them in the selection of a home site. population has meant increased property values. The experience of this association has been that yit pays a property "Owner to "belong to an provement club. AUTOMOBILE FIRE APPARATUS One of first agitations of 'the club was the matter of securing fire protection for the district, In a large district composed entirely of frame dwelling houses protection is of the utmost importance. Owing to that the city government was committed to the 'policy of spending large sums certain improvements? deemed to be of great importance for the future? there was money available for improvements in the outside districts.

For three years. the association fought tenaciously for a firehouse in the dis- trict. X. It finally succeeded in getting not only, a but also the first auto- mobile engine and: hook and ladder trucks'provided by In widely scatered district, consisting of beautiful; homes the value of motor service fire apparatus can not be estimated. i The utility of a fire department con- sists not In its ability to-quickly-sup- press a fiercely raging fire, but in its success' in getting to a fire in its in- cipicncy and in extinguishing ItTwith a minimum amount of The securing: of this motor apparatus resulted immediately, in a very material reduction in fire rates.

The securing of larger water? mains and the installation of many hydrants and fire alarm boxes increased further the fire "protection, of the district. t. 7 i LOT-CLEANING The association waged three lot cleaning crusades with gratifying, Commiitees went to the assessors and the tax collector's office and ascertained the names and addresses of all owners of unimproved property. These were requested to clear their lots of all weeds land rubbish or to permit association to It lat their expense. The result has been thatsthe entire an neatness that is highly creditable.

The spirit manifested by the club encouraged property owners In general to vie each other in "maintaining beautiful lawns. 'XX Kvery lawn. The district under the jurisdiction: of the clubJJs to building regulations in a measure, make this necessary. These restrictions hold good only for limited time, however. The fluence of the club has? been sufficient to compel? observance of these "requirements, and it is that there any deviation from them.

UNDESIRABLES KEPT OUT Seven distinct attempts at colonizing the strict with colored peopled, and i Asiatics were 'headed off yby the f. asso- elation. As soon as report would come to ariy? officer of an attempted settlement a committee would be sent to the real yestate agent to Inform them that attempt to locate colored people or Asiatics in the district would be severely resented. Relieving that announce of prevention was worth a ton of- cure, the association appointed a special 'protection committee" of 50 to get all the property owners' In district to sign ya" "civic agreemeniV not to sell, lease or rent to colred people or Asiatics. This' has been 5 wonderfully, A colored located in the northern end of the district in the vicinity of Alcatraz avenue.

This was due to the fact that the membership in this section was 'not? large the association was not warned until too late. If the 5 mem- i bers in district wish, to, be protected they should become members of the Santa Fe Improvement Already many of them have done so. As the seriousness of the situation becomes better known to them they, will join greater numbers. association has no hostility whatever toward colored? people or It is merely guided by a desire. to main-, tain property values and harmonious residential tone for the districts.

There are other tracts and sections of the city these conditions will not be disturbed and which are; equally serviceable for the purposes intended. 7 The exclusion of the saloon element has 'engagedi the continual vigilance the Fifteen y' applications for liquor licenses were defeated through the intervention 'of the club. The association believes in maintaining? its district, as a first class residen! tial district free from the evil Influ- I ences of the saloons. been uni- I formly successful in carrying out this policy? x- OPEX MEETINGS? 7 The meetings' of the association are held at Grove street. They are conducted upon the open forum plan.

All civic questions are discussed impartially with the sole idea of educating its membership. The association will not permit the only of a question. It insists upon hearing both sides. The discussions on the Greater? San Francisco? movement, the constitutional amendments and woman's suffrage drew very large crowds. The association was.

one of the prime movers in the agitation for a new charter for Oakland. Its president was one of the freeholders. Last year the organization leased the Orpheum theater a night and sold out: the entire house, realizing a net profit of over $400. THE SPECTATOR i The association publishes jat its own expense for free 7 distribution to I members Va; Journal called "The Spec- I tator." This periodical appears twice I a month. It serves to acquaint the people iof the district with what the club is doing and to encourage them in civic work.

At the recent bond election for the new- city hall and for the public auditorium 10,000 issues of J. this paper were circulated. 'it contained very strong arguments favor, of the bond issue i and certainly- did all within its power to carry the election for civic progress. The paper is well edited and is in Tat? tractive form. James Gartland is the editor and J.

The ordinances "provide, for the struction of the Twin Peaks tunnel and the Stockton street tunnel. The expense of building street tunnel is to be borne entirely: by the property owners. In the matter of the Twin Peaks tunnel the ordinance provides that the city 2 may defray one-half the cost of construction. This, however, does not make it obligatory upon the city to do so. The (ordinances provide) that as- sessments for tunnel work may be paid in 10 yearly installments.

These ordinances will be up for final i passage Monday. 7 7.)

This will be taken at once the'supreme? court for'decision. Owing to the importance several of i these A tunnels to the plans of the Panama-Pacific exposition 7 the courts will be expected to these cases precedence and to decide the matter quickly." As soon as the validity-of the ordinances has established work will be rushed ito? early j.
