(EDITORIAL) HE ENTIRE community has joined in making the welcome to the world flyers Sunday a civic enter- rise. P Seattle folks gave freely of their dollars for a fund with which to build a monument to the aviators at Sand Point. They donated for gifts to be tendered the world flyers. They worked long and hard to complete plans for a monster welcoming reception. Hampered by the fact that Sand Point is a small field, with still much to be done in the way of exten- sion and improvement, they laid their plans to care for, as best they could, the 40,000 persons who are expected at the field Sunday. Ten thousand of these will be out of town visitors. The parking problem furnished the chief worry. Chamber of Commerce officials canvassed the neigh- borhood and discovered public-spirited folks who donated fields big enough to park 3,000 autos. These were,immediately turned into free-parking spaces. . Other property owners there, with sufficient room for 2,000 or more cars, also were approached. They refused the appeal. “We're going to run our own parking spaces, ” they replied. “At 50 cents a car.” Good business? Sure! But business should be a secondary consideration at a time when the city is demonstrating to the entire Northwest that there is a civic pride and a civic spirit in Seattle.
