USE HERALD CLASSIFIED ADS GET RESULTS VOL. VIII. SIX PAGES Now and Then By The Editor DANGEROUS JINGO; BITTERNESS PREVAILS. A group of brewers once loaned money to Arthur Brisbane. Hearst newspaper editorial writer, with which to purchase a Washington, D.C., newspaper. The government got after the said Arthur and the newspaper project took another course when it was divulged that newspapers over the nation were on Brisbane's free list. Now this man Brisbane, a very brilliant writer, is attempting to keep the American people at dagger points with other nations, more particularly Great Britain, which nation ousted the Hearst newspaper service from its domain. In an editorial today, Brisbane disagrees with Senator Borah who said: "Public sentiment alone can stop the next war." Brisbane contends that flying machines, submarines, a sufficient number of trained officers, those things will prevent war, and those things this nation should, and will have, unless near-sighted milk-sops control it. When you can afford it keeps ready." Brisbane may be a brilliant man, but he is like all brilliant men, he sometimes thinks by ear instead of by note. We would hardly agree with him that Senator Borah is a milksop. He kicks himself in the brain, too, when he says, "when you can afford it, keep ready."

More Room Needed to Make Members Comfortable at Their Meetings STORES FIRST FLOOR The Anaheim Concordia, one of the oldest corporations in this city and probably one of the best known in Southern California since their marvelous achievement in the Los Angeles singing contest four years ago, where the corporation was awarded the first prize in choir singing, at a meeting last night decided to build a new and modern club house. The necessity for larger club rooms is now vital, for every party held in the old hall was attended by such big crowds that something had to be done in the direction of new building to make the numerous members and their friends comfortable. The new Concordia hall will be a two story building and have an artistic white terra cotta front. On the lower floor there will be two stores, which will be rented, 25x80, and large enough for almost any purpose. The second floor will be occupied by two elegant club rooms for ladies and gentlemen, a billiard room and a large dance hall with stage, modern built in features and artistic decorations will make all of these rooms very attractive. CHINESE VISITORS AT COUNTY'S JAIL Visitors today at the county jail brought Lee Yung and his daughter from Los Angeles here to see Lem Soo, a federal prisoner serving nine months for violating the Harrison narcotic act. Yung, who is the husband of the prisoner, brought their small daughter, laden with flowers for the alleged "hoop" trafficker.

There may be particular reward beyond for those who bring smiles to others and if there is, Luke will be abundantly rewarded for many millions of smiles. Uneasy lies the head that wears a crown, but what we started to say is that Sam Gompers, president of the Ameriacn Federation of Labor, now knows how it feels to "explain." His millions of followers are now accusing him of hobnobbing and toadying to capital at the expense of labor. And besides, Mr. Gompers is a bridegroom of a few weeks. Outside of that, he probably has no troubles. Fifty thousand children sang for President Harding yesterday. It may not have been and probably was not music of the operatic variety but we'll bet a side of bacon to a baby grand piano that it had a far greater effect on the President and Mrs. Harding. If there is any sweeter music than the voice of a child it must be in heaven, for it isn't on earth. William Jennings Bryan has adopted Florida as his legal home. For eight years, he says, he has been in a state of "suspended animation, politically speaking." He should have added one more word and said that he has been in a state of "involuntary suspended animation, politically speaking." A judge recently refused to hear a double divorce case wherein two couples wanted to exchange. We wonder whether the judge did the right thing or whether the couples did. Someone wants to know if there is anything wrong with the girl of today. Not with our's. Visitors today at the county jail brought Lee Yung and his daughter from Los Angeles here to see Lem Soo, a federal prisoner serving nine months for violating the Harrison uarcotic act. Yung, who is the husband of the prisoner, brought their small daughter, laden with flowers for the alleged "hop" trafficker. Opinions By The People Editor Herald:—It goes without saying a well formed foot and ankle is very attractive to women as well as men, that is to a normal woman and a normal man, but what I started to say is, what's the matter with the mothers and fathers of the growing boys and girls of today? I wonder if they really admire seeing as I have seen, beautiful, well formed girls exposing to the knee cap and above, their legs to the eyes of the public and acting in a manner so "raw" as to attract the attention of the corner loafers and "kids" on the street who stop and stare and make slurring remarks about them. I ask you again what is the matter with the fathers and mothers of these same girls and boys? I am no prudge. I love the younger generation and I love to see them becomingly and well dressed, with neck and arms and limbs decently exposed, but God forbid that mothers should so far forget the God-given responsibility of motherhood, that the growing girls of today should be permitted their present freedom of disgraceful exposure of person. Oh, you mothers, wake up! Pray that your girl may never have occasion to curse the day you gave her birth, that she may never crawl to you on bended knees a crushed and broken thing. ELLA M. MASON, 919 West Center street. Anaheim. AHEIM DAILY HERES ANAHEIM, CALIFORNIA, SATURDAY, JUNE 4, 1921 OFFICIALS WITH OFFICERS RAID NEAR COUNTY LINE Tables "Filling 'em Up Again" arise Alleged Operators of Bad-Pig Last Night WILL PROSECUTE FIVE Sheriff C. E. Jackson and Under Sheriff E. E. French, acting in conjunction with Officers M. H. Pritchard and Robert Jones of Los Angeles and Constable Frank Freeman of Artesia, raided an alleged blind pig near Buena Park late last night. A. Avigo, Joe Shagile, Frank Dalamia, George Art and V. Marchieto were arrested and 13 gallons of brandy and 18 gallons of wine were confiscated. The place is located west of Buena Park, past Coyote creek in Los Angeles county. Local officers had planned a raid for last Sunday, but found that it was located out of their territory. The raid was planned with the Los Angeles authorities, and, according to French, "went off without a hitch." Seven persons were found seated around the table in the farm house, and, according to officers, were just "filling 'em up" when the raid was made. TEN THOUSAND IS ASKED IN SEPARATE SUITS FOR DAMAGES SANTA ANA, June 4. Charging that Guy L. Kay drove his machine in a reckless and negligent manner, Mr. and Mrs. H. L. McLellan today filed separate suits to collect damages from Kay amounting to $10,371.64 as the result of an auto accident occurring on Placentia avenue recently. It is alleged in the complaints that the Donald McLellans was operating their auto in a careful manner, and were forced to turn into a light post to avoid Kay, who they say, turned into a side road without warning. The suit brought by Mr. McLellan amounts to $321.64 for damages to the car. Mrs. McLellan, who was a passenger at the time of the accident, asks for $10,050.00 for personal injuries. SEEKS PAYMENT OF BALANCE ON AUTO Action to collect $1800, said to be due from H. C. White on the purchase of an automobile, will be started by the Anaheim National bank Monday in department 1 of the superior court. It is alleged in the complaint that White purchased an Auburn touring car from C. R. Franklin last September. The price agreed upon was $2265, and $1965 of which White paid down to pay the remainder. DISTURBS THE PEACE IN SANTA ANA OVER SMALL CHILD A quarrel that is said to have started over a fair lady and a little child brought G. H. Bright and C. F. Hill into the justice court in Santa Ana this morning on a charge of disturbing the peace. Bright pleaded guilty and paid $10 fine. Hill pleaded not guilty and will be tried Wednesday, June 8. The row is said to have started near the Rossmore hotel on Fourth street last evening. The pair were arrested on a similar charge recently and officers declare that the bone of contention was the small daughter of Hill. Divorce proceedings have been started between Hill and his wife. Bright is said to have attempted to take the child of the Hill's from the father. The custody of the child will be decided in the coming divorce suit. EX-BANDIT WILL VISIT ANAHEIM; SPEAK NEXT WEEK Emmett Dalton, ex-bandit, last of America's most noted outlaws who helped fake history in the west, is in Anaheim today on business. Not on business of his former choice, but here to tell next Tuesday and Wednesday evenings at the Grand theatre interesting stories of his bandit days and point out the folly of striving The place is located west of Buena Park, past Coyote creek in Los Angeles county. Local officers had planned a raid for last Sunday, but found that it was located out of their territory. The raid was planned with the Los Angeles authorities, and, according to French, "went off without a hitch." Seven persons were found seated around the table in the farm house, and according to officers, were just "filling 'em up" when the raid was made. The five arrested are believed to be the ringleaders. The seven alleged patrons of the establishment were not arrested, but will be used as witnesses in the trial of the five suspects. An arraignment before Justice of the Peace Gamble of Artesia, was held late last night, and the five were taken to the Los Angeles county jail. It is understood that they will be prosecuted by the federal authorities. GOVERNOR SLASHES APPROPRIATIONS MEASURE SACRAMENTO, June 4.—A saving of $252,300 was effected at midnight when Governor William D. Stephens objected to eleven items in the general appropriation bill. The general appropriation measure as passed the legislature called for $23,199,450. As signed by the governor it provides for $22,947,150. DISARMAMENT TO BE CHURCH THEME OVER THE NATION Men, women and children interested in the cause of peace by means of world disarmament will go to their churches tomorrow to hear the plan being followed to bring about a conference of the heads of great nations with the end in view of bringing about peace. June 5, tomorrow, has been designated by all churches in America to preach the cause of peace and leaders in the disarmament movement will occupy the pulpits in many of the large churches of the country. In Anaheim, as elsewhere, the balance on auto action to collect $1800, said to be due from H. C. White on the purchase of an automobile, will be started by the Anaheim National bank Monday in department 1 of the superior court. It is alleged in the complaint that White purchased an Auburn touring car from C. R. Franklin last September. The price agreed upon was $2265, and $1965 of which White paid down to pay the remainder in November. Since that time the bank has purchased Franklin's equity in the debt, and is now seeking to collect $1800 and $50 attorney's fees. White admits taking part in the transaction, but denies that he owes a balance on the car. OMAR TOFT TAKES A BRIDE IN SANTA ANA Omar Toft, famous Los Angeles racing driver, was married yesterday by Justice of the Peace J. B. Cox to Elizabeth Tovica of Los Angeles. Orange county residents will remember Toft's somewhat romantic experiences in this section several years ago. The driver was injured in the Phoenix road race when driving an expensive French racing car belonging to a wealthy young woman of Los Angeles. Some time after the accident, Toft and his financial backer were married, and lived together until her death a few months ago. ELKS WILL BATTLE KNIGHTS SUNDAY; FULLERTON FIELD Baseball fans will go to Fullerton tomorrow to see the game between Anaheim Elks and the Knights of Columbus of Los Angeles, a game that promises to be hard fought. The Los Angeles team is said to be a fast one and has made a very "snappy" showing throughout the season. Hughes will pitch for Anaheim. EMMETT Dalton, ex-bandit, last of America's most noted outlaws who helped fake history in the west, is in Anaheim today on business. Not on business of his former choice, but here to tell next Tuesday and Wednesday evenings at the Grand theatre interesting stories of his bandit days and point out the folly of straying from the pathway of competitive and legitimate business to the crooked pathway of the outlaw. Dalton will give his talk in connection with the picture, "Beyond the Law," at the Grand theatre Tuesday and Wednesday nights of next week. The picture is taken from the book of the same name and pictures details of a most interesting nature in connection with the exploits and love affairs of the Dalton boys. The story is historically correct. In his talk, Dalton will tell of some of their exploits in California and also of some crimes they were accused of committing of which they were guiltless. Some of these happenings will be recalled by some of the pioneers of Anaheim. Dalton, a caller at the Herald office today, said he "has it in for newspapermen" for because of one, he is now compelled to earn an honest living because former Governor Hoch of Kansas; a newspaperman, pardoned him. If he had not been pardoned by that newspaperman, Dalton said, he would still be in jail where it is necessary to earn a living. Dalton has a very pleasing personality and is possessed with a fixed purpose, to show the fallacy of wrong methods of gaining a living. When a man says he feels like a two-year old, he should explain whether he is thinking of a horse or a jitney. Man's inhumanity to man makes countless thousands jump when a horn sounds. WEATHER FORECAST Fair tonight and Sunday except cloudy or foggy in the morn- ing. AGED COUPLE TAKE MARRIAGE LICENSE The oldest couple that have been wounded by Cupid in some time obtained a marriage license yesterday. They are William Thomas, 75, and Louise Auerbach, 60, Long Beach. Thomas is a civil war veteran. O'DAY HEARING IS CONTINUED TO 17TH The hearing on the request of J. W. O'Day for an injunction restraining the Anaheim National bank, the First National Bank of Anaheim and the Farmers and Merchants National Bank of Fullerton from honoring checks on the joint account of persons interested in certain El Toro mining claims, was continued until June 17. O'Day alleges that Milton McMillan, U. S. Glaze and others, are issuing checks on money deposited for the mining claims that are held in partnership, and desires that the court grant a restraining order until an accounting is made.

He stated that over 100 persons were known to be dead and that the fire continued to burn furiously. The station agent came to Colorado Springs in an auto driven over the ties of the D. & R. G. tracks. COLORADO SPRINGS, June 4—Special agent of the Santa Fe railroad company who arrived here from Pueblo, reported (that at least 1200 persons had lost their lives in the flood and fire which is sweeping that city today). Although, he stated, there is no way in which an accurate count can be made at this time but the casualties are known to have reached a fearful number. STILLMAN CASE BRINGS MORE DENVER, June 4—Four lives have been lost and enormous damage to crops and property has been done in Colorado within the last 24 hours as the result of cloudbursts and heavy rains. Rain began falling here at 6 o'clock last night and this morning was continuing unabated. Indications were that it would continue STILLMAN CASE BRINGS MORE TRAGEDY Florence Leeds Said to Be Inmate of Catholic Home Near New York CHANGE OF LAWYERS NEW YORK, June 4.—Two law firms have resigned as counsel for Mrs. James A. Stillman in her husband's divorce action and her side of the case is in complete charge of John F. Brennan of Yonkers. After a 36-hour conference, it was learned the firms of Stanchfield and Levy and Cadwalader, Wickersham and Taft decided to withdraw. The exterior motive was said to have been that Brennan was best fitted to handle the case because he was located in West Chester county where the case will be tried. It was believed, however, the hidden motive might have been the attitude of some attorneys opposed to Mrs. Stillman's refusal to adopt a settlement of the suit. It was said the reassignment was declared suitable by Mrs. Stillman who signed the order of substitution. Mrs. Florence Lawlor Leeds, former chorus girl, whose son, Jay, is alleged by Mrs. Stillman to be the child of Stillman, is reported to be hiding in a community administered by Catholic women. A letter said to have been received by a New York morning newspaper from one of the women purported to state: "she (Mrs. Leeds) never ventures outside of her immediate grounds except to attend the Catholic church near by or visit the priest of the parish, who had taken a keen interest in this cruelly misjudged girl." If the truth were known, she is the real tragedy behind this great domestic struggle. A lot of credit is due this young woman for her superior control. In the war of the multitude against the abuse of motherhood we have forgotten that she too DENVER, June 4.—Four lives have been lost and enormous damage to crops and property has been done in Colorado within the last 24 hours as the result of cloudbursts and heavy rains. Rain began falling here at 8 o'clock last night and this morning was continuing unabated. Indications were that it would continue most of the day. Reports from Pueblo said that flames were raging in several parts of the city while the business section was under six feet of water following a flood of the Arkansas river. National guardsmen were patrolling the streets early today while the fires started by lightning, raged unchecked. It was believed, however, the heavy rain would extinguish the flames. The damage in Pueblo will amount to $24,000,000, it was estimated. Near Loveland, the dam holding back Lake Loveland threatened early today to go out. Thousands of rich farming land would be hindered. Virtually every citizen of Loveland today was working frantically to stop the numerous leaks in the dyke. The Colorado and Southern railway bridge over the Big Thompson river there was swept away. Hundreds of feet of track were washed out. Rail service is completely demoralized. Basements of nearly every store in Loveland are flooded. Near Sterling, Mrs. Carl Davis and her baby were drowned when their home was swept away by a wall of water that rushed down the creek, following a cloudburst. Two other children are missing. Two children of William Grey were drowned while the father was carrying them from their home in Pueblo, which was demoralized by a sudden flood of water from Dry Creek near Grey's home. The children were swept from Grey's arms. Both he and his wife escaped. A rescue party which left Broomfield late last night to search for a group of seven motorists, believed to have perished when a bridge over a small creek went out today, reported no trace of the motorists had been found. Grave fears were felt today for residents of Marshall, a mining town 23 miles north of Denver. The huge dam, holding back an 800-acre lake, was in imminent danger of going out. A break in the dam would mean the destruction of the little town and the flooding of scores of mines.
