I shall hold Mr. Williams in contempt and he will be given into the custody of the sheriff until the amount due is paid." Thus spoke Superior Judge West, and Milam A. Williams of Whittier congratulated himself that he had $32.50 in his possession when the court uttered the threat. Prospects of going to jail made Williams "dig" hurriedly for the amount asked. Williams was in court for a hearing on an order to show cause why he should not pay his former wife, Ruby Williams, $32.50, which she alleged he owed her out of one month's alimony of $42.50. It was brought out that some weeks ago Williams, with the consent of his first wife, took one of the couple's owners of Liberty and Victory bonds of small denominations have been disposing of them at the rate of from $10,000,000 to $12,000,000 a day. How long this has been going on he does not say, but sufficiently long to alarm the government. In almost every instance, says Mr. Brown, the bonds are disposed of at a considerable discount. Whatever the reason may be for thus disposing of government securities, it is not good sign. Liberty and Victory bonds were sold to the masses of people not only to obtain the largest possible amount of money but to create a patriotic sentiment among all classes. A financial interest in the affairs of the government, no matter how small, is more than likely to make a better and more loyal citizen of the purchaser. These sales tend to create a public distrust if not an additional desire to unload. When purchasers of $50 and $100 bonds find they will bring only $42 and $93, respectively, there is bound to be disappointment if not disgust. WANTS INJUNCTURE RESTRAINT Placentia Ranch Damaging An injunction v the Columbia Oil Company, the ment Company a Oil Company from phalatum and cru storm waters to down an arroyo of Niels Anderson Williams was in court for a hearing on an order to show cause why he should not pay his former wife, Ruby Williams, $32.50, which she alleged he owed her out of one month's alimony of $42.50. It was brought out that some weeks ago Williams, with the consent of his first wife, took one of the couple's two children with him to Whittier. Later, the child was returned to Mrs. Williams. Attorney Roger Dutton of Anaheim argued that $30, which Williams said he spent on the child, ought to be deducted from one of Williams' monthly alimony payments. The court held otherwise. Attorney H. V. Weisel of Anaheim, counsel for Mrs. Williams, offered to put the two children on the stand to give testimony in addition to that already given by Mrs. Williams. "It isn't at all necessary," said Judge West. "I am as familiar with this case as though I had heard it today. This woman has never sought something from her former husband but what she has had to come into court." Mrs. Williams No. 2 was in court, seated beside her husband. When the court threatened Williams with contempt, she quailed visibly. Williams, it was brought out at the hearing, earns $180 per month. He was granted a final decree of divorce from his first wife on March 26, last. On the same day, it was said, he was married to his second wife. KEEP THE BONDS Mr. Herbert D.

It is expected that this will tend to stabilize the price of bonds and check the disposal of them to speculators. WANTS INJUNCTION TO RESTRAIN OIL COMPANIES Placentia Rancher Says Crude Oil Damaging His Ground. An injunction which would restrain the Columbia Oil Company, the Union Oil Company, the Petroleum Development Company and the West Coast Oil Company from so distributing asphaltum and crude oil as to allow storm waters to wash these products down an arroyo and upon the ranch of Niels Anderson, north of Placentia, will be sought through a suit which Attorneys McFadden and Thompson of Placentia filed for Anderson in Superior Court. The plaintiff, in addition to the injunction, asked in his complaint, that he be awarded damages in the sum of $5000, which he alleges he sustained during the past two years as a result of storm waters carrying the waste oil products upon five acres of his 20-acre ranch, which is located about one and a half miles north of Placentia. On the five-acre parcel of his ranch, Anderson set forth, there are 18-year-old walnut trees. His ranch is located two miles from a number of hills. There extends from these hills to his property a small canyon, or arroyo, which opens on level land above the upper northwest corner of his property, he stated. The oil companies operate their wells in the canyon, and in the winter waste products from these wells are carried down upon his five acres of walnuts, he alleged. The waste asphaltum and crude petroleum has been washed down during the past two years, the plaintiff asserts. As a result Aanderson said, his land has become saturated with oil, vegetation has been killed and the land has lost its productiveness. He alleged his trees had become daubed with oil, causing them to split and rot. Anderson alleged he has had to build embankments in an effort to protect himself from the waste products and has washed all his trees with gasoline.
