PARK NEWS 
Continued from page 268 
for the Grant monument to save certain 
historic trees. Secretary Taft indorsed 
the proposition of the Park Commission, 
which recommended the removal of the 
Chittenden oak on the grounds that it 
grows on the logical site for the monu- 
ment, and he protested against the se- 
lection of another site. Frederick Law 
Olmsted, a member of the advisory 
board of the Grant memorial commis'^ 
sion, took the same general position, 
favoring the report and plans of the 
Park Commission. H. H. Hicks, an 
expert tree mover, told the committee 
that the Chittenden oak could be re- 
moved without damaging the tree at a 
cost not to exceed $5,000.
