Park directors F. B. Naylor and George F. Otto differ on the type of change they would like in charter sections governing park control; problem up to City Manager Flack.
When F. B. Naylor and George F. Otto, park commissioners, disagreed verbally yesterday on the type of change they would like in charter sections governing park control, the council referred the matter to the city manager to confer with commissioners.
Previously Naylor, Otto and Don Yale, the third commissioner, had signed a letter asking the council to submit to the people a charter amendment giving the park board full control of the park operation as it had before the new charter conferred park power on the city manager.
Naylor told the council yesterday there was no “row” but the park board merely wished to “rectify” the situation which makes the park commission advisory to the park director. He said conditions are “perfect” today, but with a director other than John Morley this might not be so.
Naylor added belief that he would be satisfied by a charter amendment making the commission advisory to the manager instead of the park director.
Otto said he was standing by his views as expressed in the letter. Yale was not present.
Manager Flack said he knew of no reason why the present commission could not advise the manager, but Naylor said it was not provided in the charter. Several councilmen questioned the value of setting up another separate organization in the park, viewing the move as a departure from the city manager form of government and a step toward the commission form.
Councilman Wansey {sic} hinted that if he were manager, he would think it anomalous to have an advisory commission whose members had been appointed by two previous mangers, thus opening the door for resignations of the three present commissioners.
“Maybe we’d be better off without a park commission,” suggested Councilman Siebert.
“If the manager doesn’t appoint his own commission, then that’s so,” agreed Wansley.

January 25, 1937, Letter from George F. Otto, chairman Park Commission, to Honorable City Council, San Diego, California.
In justice to myself, as Chairman of the Park Commission, I feel it is my duty to make this statement to your honorable body. Should the newspapers wish to publish it, which would please me, I reserve the right to have it either published in full or not at all.
The first thing which confronted the Park Commission when I became a member, was what to do with the Exposition buildings of 1915-1916. A good many were badly in need of repairs and some had to be removed entirely. An appeal made through the newspapers brought a general response for saving the buildings. Other organizations assisted with funds, and later, with the assistance of the Federal Government, larger sums made it possible to restore the buildings so that they were useful for the Exposition of 1935-1936.
All matters pertaining to the needs of the park were brought before the Commission. Different concessions which had been made, as well as the returns they gave to the city government, making up the budget and the like, were all brought to our attention until our present city manager took office. Then very few matters were brought to our attention and most of them of trivial importance. Although I called up the Park Office on the says scheduled for our regular meetings, in most cases I was told there was nothing on the docket.
Recommendations made to the Park Director to plant some plants to hide some unsightly spots were left unheeded. Along Sixth Avenue in the Park I wanted some Cocos Plumosa palms along the side which had died out, replaced. In fact, I offered the palms free of charge out of my nursery, but no use was made of my offer.
In getting the grounds ready for the 1936 fair the request was made by the Exposition people to remove all the acacia trees along the Prado (Laurel Street) to make a better lighting effect. The Park Commission decided against it, except to move a few unsightly ones and thin out the others. This was later done, but strange to say our city manager appointed another commission to go over the same work, not even taking one member from the Park Commission for the new commission. The only conclusion which I could come to was that the manager considered the Park Commission incompetent and if that was his opinion he should have discharged the Park Commission and given his reasons. I so expressed myself in a letter sent to him and I got his answer to the effect that he would take it up at some future time. I waited patiently until I finally appealed to two of our councilman, and then Mr. Flack, as well as Mr. Lockwood, appeared at one of our meetings. I tried my best to lay the matter before him, but it was impossible to make any headway; everything was too trifling to him and it was useless to go further. I called Mr. Flack by telephone for a personal interview, but he claimed he was overburdened with work and indicated that he thought I wasn’t feeling well and that apparently my feelings had been hurt, and advised me to take it easy and everything would come out all right. This was far from what I expected of a $15,000.00 a year man who I hoped would give fair consideration to everyone and especially to a commission or a commissioner who serves the city without any compensation.
In September at the close of the Exposition and the beginning of the rehabilitation of the Park, Mr. Flack again appointed another commission without any representative from the Park Commission. I looked over the Charter to see if there was provision made for a dual Park Commission but could not and cannot find anything referring to a dual or substitute Park Commission. So Mr. Flack must have made the additional change to the charter. One member of the new commission informed me that as soon as his commission got through with their part we, the Park Commission, could have everything back again. Whatever was meant by this I have never been able to fully convince myself, but I have my opinion.
The taxpayers and voters of San Diego have been generous in voting bonds for the Exposition of 1915-1916, for the stadium golf links, Torrey Pines Lodge, and the park in general. The park is a real asset to the city of San Diego, but the stadium, golf links and other investments should have given better returns to the city then they have. From my observation, during the forty-eight years I have called San Diego my home, I find that we have had and have yet too many in our city administration who see nothing great about San Diego, and have interest expect their paychecks, and as soon as those stop they leave the city.
(Signed) George F. Otto,
Chairman Park Commission.

July 22, 1937, San Diego Herald, 1:3-4. PARK COMMISSION
City Manager Flack has suddenly stepped out, in a burst of administrative energy, and put on the park commission three gentlemen in the interest of public harmony.
The announcement of Flack’s is almost too funny to admit refutation.
Let us look at Mr. Flack’s new appointments on the Park Board.
The first is Nicholas Martin, chairman of the Civic Affair’s Conference an directly a little tin god to Flack because he made Flack’s $15,000-a-year salary possible.
In other words, Flack simply paid back Nicholas Martin the debt he owes Martin for the sweetest job in the United States for a man who won’t work.
Then he appointed Fred Kunzel, who happens to be not only a member of the Civic Affairs Conference, but the attorney for the San Diego Gas Company. His third appointee was Tom Hamilton, who is manager of the George W. Marston interests in the city and who undoubtedly was made a member of the Park Board through the good efforts of Mr. Addington Housh, who for many years was manager of the furniture department in Marston’s store, and who feels no compunction in helping his master, Mr. George W. Marston.
In other words, the San Diego City Council is playing back its debt to the Civic Affairs Conference by throwing out great gobs of patronage to its friends.
It is a marvel to The Herald that Hamilton, who is a close associate of George Marston, and Fred Kunzel, who is the Gas Company’s lawyer, would have the guts to talk to Flack in his own back yard. And Nicholas Martin, chief aider and abettor of the lousy City Charter which has given us a $15,000-a-year City Manager in the person of Robert W. Flack — these are the three kind of people that remind us immensely of a certain Walter Casey, who, because of his effect in electing a Civic Affairs Conference majority got as his reward the valuable parking concession at the San Diego Exposition.
City Manager Flack said, when he fired the old Park Commission and appointed these three Civic Affairs Conference eggs, that he was acting in the best interests of the San Diego city public.
Flack is a liar. What he is doing was putting the control of the Park Board into the hands of the Civic Affairs Conference Committee and taking it out of the hands of experienced citizens who have served the city well and faithfully. One of these men, Geo. Otto, being a man who has devoted his entire life to the growing of flowers, trees and shrubs and to the development of things beautiful. Mr. Otto is an able, experienced landscape engineer and probably the best qualified man in the city to fill the position of park commissioner. San Diego will suffer through losing his services. Flack’s action in removing him without even showing him the courtesy of notifying him in advance of the contemplated action, smacks of Hitlerism, and clearly demonstrates that Flack was acting under orders of the Civic Affairs Conference of was under the influence of too many highballs.
CONSOLIDATION
Patrick Francis O’Rourke, originator of the idea of consolidation as it concerns the amalgamation of the city and county government around the shores of San Diego bay, won a major victory Tuesday when the City Council voted to refer the matter to the political science division of the University of California for investigation.
And it is significant that the Council totally forget City Manager Flack in rendering his judgment, and went ahead on its own judgment on the most important political move ever conceived for the benefit of a citizen of this area of southern California.
In other words, the City Manager to whom we given $15,000 a year to advise us on our most important public policies has failed absolutely to function in this most important problem.
Flack should know that no citizen can or will vote against the proposition that will knock $3,000,000 off his tax bill, or, as O’Rourke has said:
One dollar and fifty cents on every hundred dollars of valuation is placed on the Gas Company or the home of the lowliest workingman in the city.
The Herald does not know what the result of the consolidation investigation will be, but it is as plain as the nose on one’s face that a decision on such a problem by the City Council without reference to the City Manager practically destroys that City Charter under which we presumably operate.
City Manager Flack does not want an consolidation of the City and County of San Diego within the limits of San Diego because he knows that such a consolidation will send him back to North Carolina with a one-way railroad ticket in one hand and his shoes in the other. He does not want consolidation of the City-County government, to change the ideas of this sentence, anymore than the President of the San Diego Consolidated Gas and Electric Company would admire a change in that company’s set-up which would take him out of his hard wood offices and send him to digging ditches.
The difference, of course, is that if these two things were done at once, the President of the Gas Company would NOT dig ditches, but Robert W. Flack WOULD undoubtedly have to leave for the east coast on the first train.
While O’Rourke did not get what he went after in his appeal to the city council Tuesday, he won a recognition there that has not been his in the past, and the decision of the council to ask a committee to test the soundness of the O’Rourke consolidation plan shows that consolidation has at last attained the proportion of a major subject in San Diego.
Of the validity and feasibility of consolidation no citizen of San Diego now has any doubt. The details, many as they are, will be up to the board of freeholders, who will draft the new city-county charter. Whatever the problems they face, will be solved, for none of these problems is unsolvable.
Credit must go, of course, to O’Rourke for the persistence with which he has drive home the truth about City-County consolidation for the past two years. If the city ever gets consolidation and the lowered taxes which consolidation will bring about, the entire credit must go to O’Rourke — and it probably will unless something happens as did after the building of El Capitan dam, when, on the commemorative plaque telling who were responsible for the dam. ALL THE NAMES OF THOSE WHO HAD FOUGHT EL CAPITAN AND TRIED TO WRECK THE VERY IDEA OF A DAM THERE ARE INSCRIBED IN LASTING BRASS, BUT THE NAME OF O’ROURKE, WHO FOUGHT FOR EL CAPITAN FOR 10 YEARS AND WHO SPENT A FORTUNE IN GETTING IT FINALLY BUILT, IS CONSPICUOUS BY ITS ABSENCE.

September 16, 1937, San Diego Herald, 1:3-4. ART AND THE POLITICIAN
For many years Mrs. Maude O’Rourke, wife of Patrick Francis O’Rourke, has been distinguished in San Diego by her unselfish devotion to cultural advancement in the city. Her work along this line has been marked particularly by her unselfishness and by the intelligence and knowledge which she has brought to the furtherance of those activities which are concerned wholly with the mind and with the soul.
Among those organizations to which Mrs. O’Rourke has contributed most of her thought has been the San Diego Academy of Fine Arts, which has been operating in Balboa Park. During all the years of the depression the Academy continued its work — and by continuing this work The Herald means that it has kept up its obligation, it maintained its agreements with students and it continued the training of young artists despite all the difficulties of the times.
When the San Diego Exposition started the Academy was removed to the Municipal Pier building where it continued its work. Now those in control of the Academy have brought it back to Balboa Park, which is its natural home.
When the Academy moved from the park, the building which it occupied was taken over for Exposition purposes, and the partitions which divided it into sections were taken out and stored by the city.
Now, when the Academy is looking forward to the resumption of its winter’s work the partitions, which are necessary to divide the Academy into its school rooms, are found to be lacking in part. In other words, the Academy finds itself without a portion of the property which it turned over to the city of San Diego for storage. It has asked the city of San Diego either to provide the missing partitions or to pay for them. The answer from the city of San Diego has taken the form of “passing the buck” from one city department to another until those interested in the Academy are almost frantic in the idea that their fall opening will be delayed.
The worth of the San Diego Academy of Fine Arts lies wholly in the help that it is giving to young San Diego artists. Its success in the training of young artists in past years has been phenomenal, and this success has not cost the students anything.
It should be apparent to the City Council and to the Park Board and to the City Manager that such an institution as the Academy of Fine Arts is an asset to the city. It is apparent that in the development of young creative talent it should have much more than the passive interest of the powers that be. In any other community it would have their active support. More than this, it would be a matter of community pride. But San Diego, with all it has to offer to the advancement of the cultural life, cannot see beyond its communal nose. It is rather absurd that a newspaper should have to take up a question of common justice in a matter like this against the city government. And The Herald thinks that it is absurd because the matter of these partitions has dragged on now for several weeks.
