Another tour for play-lots was con- ducted yesterday under the auspices of the Safety First Society. in co- operation with The Evening World campaign for more play-spaces, Mr, Elliott, Secretary of the Bafety First Society, attended. The Borough President's office of Brooklyn was represented by his sec- retary, John Creighton, and Wester- volt Prentice, secretary to Park Com- missioner Ingersoll, conducted the party to various desirable vacant spaces. Charles E. » Manager of the Long Island Automobile Club, was a member of the party, also Mrs. Helen Speer, the designer of playgrounds. We visited mainly the Williamsburg section, which Is one of the most con- gested rections in Brooklyn and large- ly resembles the seething east side of New York. there are many Liocks of nts and hundreds of chil- on the sidewalks. In all of thie congested district there are only three public play- grounds, an fi . th are only ten int borough, ino! the closely Populated areas of Brownavilie and Greenpoint. Therefore there is as much, !f not greater, need for play-spaces in these districts as there is in Manhattan.
