RAPID DEVELOPMENT OF MOTOR STAGE SYSTEM Can Now Travel From Mexican Border To Oregon. The development of the motor stage transportation system in California has reached such a point that it is now possible to travel by motor from cities bordering the line of Mexico to points in Oregon and even bgyond. From the international line on the south to the important cities of the north the motor stage system has spread until a network of lines covering every city of importance in California has been perfected. The itinerary of the system covers upward of one hundred and fifty cities and towns, and with connections available it is possible to reach points in any part of the state. In view of the fact that the motor stage system has gone to particular pains to cover every point of scenic beauty, many places of interest are included that would be impossible to reach by other means of transportation. The tourist can find no other method of travel that will compare with motor stage for pure enjoyment and education. The terminus of the motor stage system in Los Angeles is centered in a Union Depot, located at Fifth & Los Angeles streets. The size and completeness of this depot attests the proportions which the motor stage system has reached. The thousands of people who daily gather to secure transportation to all points of California show most clearly the attitude of the traveling public toward motor transit. The business man who must cover a number of points within a comparatively small area finds the motor stage an invaluable asset, for the frequent schedules effect a saving of time that followed at this time in some counties. This is that motorists travelling at night who note a car approaching, the headlights of which are blinding, inform the approaching driver that his lights are too bright by winking his own lights. It is up to the approaching car at this signal to dim the lights or automatically deflect them. However, much more strenuous efforts are being made in some localities by the authorities to stop the number of accidents attributed to glaring headlights. These efforts include arrests for evasion of the law. "Many deaths and innumerable serious injuries in auto accidents can be deliberately traced to the awful glare of headlights on the rural and urban highways," is the word received from the Automobile Club. "This is becoming appalling, and will have to stop." "Courts and individual arms of the law are already taking steps to see that the practice of carrying glaring lights is curbed. Therefore this statement is issued from the club a warning to either deflect and dim their lights or suffer the consequences, which in Southern California are going to be most severe." OPEN SHOP ERA COMING Indicative of the spread of the open shop policy and the consequent retrogression of the old closed, or strictly unionized shop, the Chamber of Commerce of the United States has adopted a platform on industrial relations which declares for the right of "open shop" operation of industry, and for making labor organizations the same as organizations of employers, legally "responsible to others for their conduct and that of their agents." Before the World War, the trend was unmistakably toward the closed shop.

W. Chung, who swore to the complaint charging him with the crime. The crime with which Ruiz was charged was committed on August 6 when Chung and S. Y. Choo, Korean, were attacked at their home northeast of Santa Ana, by two Mexicans who beat them severely. Two days later while working in a beet field on the San Joaquin ranch, Chung identified Ruiz as one of the Mexicans who had attacked him. Ruiz's arrest followed and he was held at the county jail for 15 days pending his preliminary hearing. At the preliminary hearing Choo was unable to identify Ruiz, who established an alibi by which it was shown he was in San Diego at the time the crime was committed. Ruiz now asks $75 for the time lost while in the county jail, $500 for the mental anguish suffered, $75 for attorney fees and $35 for the expenses incurred in bringing witnesses from San Diego.

Before the World War, the trend was unmistakably toward the closed shop. And during the war organized labor was able to force its demands for the spread of the closed shop. But since the armistice there has been a decided tendency away from the closed shop and in favor of the open shop where men belonging to unions may work alongside of men who prefer not to join unions. In Los Angeles the closed shop lost its footings after the McNamara trials and in other cities revelations of more recent date have tended to push the closed shop aside for the broader policy of the open shop. Today there is no mistaking the spirit of unorganized labor and of the thousands of employers throughout the country.

The health officers of most cities in the southern part of the state find bad housing conditions and communicable diseases ever present among these people. It is possible that many outbreaks of such diseases may find their beginnings in a Mexican source. It is comparatively easy for Mexicans to cross the border unobserved, and until conditions in Mexico improve we must expect smallpox leprosy and typhus to be brought into California by these people. Considerable responsibility is placed upon Southern California health officers in keeping these diseases at all times under control in their communities. DIMMING THE HEADLIGHTS Blinding headlights have figured so frequently lately in auto accidents that steps to curb their brilliancy are being taken wherever possible thruout the southern part of the State. Officials of the Automobile Club of Southern California have received scores of complaints from members who, in trying to obey the state law on headlight glare have themselves suffered from others who make no attempt to follow the legal provisions. A suggestion which comes from the northern part of the State is being ANAHEIM GAZETTE SUPERVISORS PROCEEDINGS No bids being received for the $12,000 issue of 6 per cent bonds of the Newport Beach School District, the matter was continued to Sept. 14th, 1920, at 11:00 A.M.

FULLERTON UNDERTAKERS DISPUTE OVER CORPSE Man In Possession Refuses To Give It Up To Competitor. Even if the undertaking business consists in handling dead ones, it is quite apparent that it is necessary to be a live wire to succeed at it in Fullerton. A coroner's inquest held at the J. E. Seale undertaking establishment there Saturday developed the fact that the innocent and departed subject of the official inquiry was a bone of contention, so to speak, between Mr Seale and Angus McAulay, a competitor. In fact, the remains of an unfortunate victim of an automobile accident were prepared for burial by Mr. Seale and the corpse forwarded to the sorrowing relatives in an adjoining city only after Mr. Seale, the story goes, had won in an argument with his opposition, and defied Mr. McAulay and the City Marshal, who is the town's police force. Mr. Seale asserted yesterday that the trouble started because the County Coroner, W. D. Brown, sends all his business to the McAulay establishment. To this Mr. McAulay retorted that the cause of it is that his competitor is too full of youthful enthusiasm and goes after business in ways ill-befitting a member of a dignified calling. Last Thursday a young man who had been injured by an automobile truck died at the Fullerton Hospital. The physician who had been called to attend him communicated with relatives and was told to send the body to the nearest undertaker. He called the Seale establishment.

Prosper Slonehe, a wealthy Belgian rancher of Los Alamitos, mixed up with a trio of Italian bunko men at Anaheim some days ago, and came near locing $7000. Andy Moore, Louis Regret and Bakam Andrea, the three men, were arrested by Los Angeles officers and are now in jail. Mr. Slonehe told the police that he had gone to Anaheim from his ranch to buy a bracelet for his girl when he met Moore and Regret at the store. Regret was weeping and coughing. The rancher asked Moore what was the trouble and he declares that Moore told him the following story: "That boy (pointing to Regret) is my son. He is a victim of tuberculosis and I fear he will die unless I can get him back 'to France. I have a brother in Los Angeles who has committed a crime and intends to flee the country. He has asked me to distribute his fortune of $30,000 to the poor. I am afraid it will take me too long and that my son will die before I can distribute the funds." Then he shed a bitter tear. "I will help you distribute the money," the rancher volunteered. So Mr. Slonehe went to Los Angeles with the two men, he said. All three went to a room in a hotel at East Sixth street and Ceres avenue, where the rancher asserts the other an overload, to cross the boulevard at factory. Petition of E. H. Adams, et al., for the vacation and abandonment of a portion of the public road known as Wanda Road in the Fourth Road District, was granted. Petition of Albert Pryor, et al., to vacate and abandon those certain Public Roads, known as Central, Occidental, Water, Oriental and Garcia Streets, Fifth road district, came on regularly for hearing and continued to Sept. 14th, 1920, at 2:00 P.M. Petition of J. H. Barton, et al., to vacate and abandon certain public roads in Third district, came on regularly for hearing, and said petition was denied. An appropriation of $18,327.25 was made for the Fairview Contract payable out of General Road Fund. An appropriation of $12,305.40 was made for the Road Improvement No. 3 payable out of the General Road Fund. County Engineer was authorized to employ an assistant bookkeeper at a salary of $100.00 per month. Stanley Falkenstein has enrolled as a student at the university at Berkeley, and is in the junior class. Stanley is taking a course in architecture. He is a graduate of Anaheim high school and the Fullerton junior college, and is one of the brightest boys who ever went to the university from Orange county. He is a studious and hard working student, and we look for him to make a great record at Berkeley. To be a junior at Berkeley after six years in high school and junior college is a record of which any boy could be justly proud. Stanley always war a good little kid, and has grown to be a splendid young man. May the best of good fortune attend him. The Anaheim Elks band is going to be out and make music on the street today. It will parade at 10:15 oclock this morning from its headquarters to the high school grounds where it will make music for the Mexican fourth of July celebration. This is independence day in Mexico, and the Mexicans of this section are holding their annual celebration in this city. AND THEY SAY A few evenings back a woman espied a man whom she suspicioned of having annoyed her the evening before, when she was off her guard, and grabbed him by the coat collar. She called to her daughters to assist her thusiasm and goes after business in ways ill-befitting a member of a dignified calling. Last Thursday a young man who had been injured by an automobile truck died at the Fullerton Hospital. The physician who had been called to attend him communicated with relatives and was told to send the body to the nearest undertaker. He called the Seale establishment. The death was reported at the Coroner’s office in Santa Ana within a few minutes after it occurred, and the Coroner ordered the remains to be taken to the McAulay parkors, it seems. Now, when McAulay received the word from the Coroner, he naturally started to look for the corpse, only to learn that it was already at his rival’s establishment. Armed with the order of the county official, he found the City Marshal and visited his opposition, driving his wagon to the rear of the establishment and demanding admission. Falling the get response here, the undertaker and the police force left the wagon at the rear door and entered the business office of the Seale establishment. They demanded the body. In no uncertain tones Mr. Seale made his refusal to deliver plain, and an argument ensued Townpeople soon gathered, and for fear of creating a wrong impression Mr. McAulay withdrew, permitting his competitor to retain the corpse and the business. This last bit of excitement growing out of undertaking competition recalls other escapades of the recent past which have been of interest to Fullerton citizens. "This here fuss ain't nothin' to what happened the last time," said one of the local observers of the fued yesterday. He then related the tale of a man who died from injuries received in a railroad-crossing accident. One of the undertakers happened to be near the scene and took the injured man to the hospital. He also made a record-breaking drive in order to get the wife to the victim's bedside before the man died the story runs. This act of kindness won the heart of the newly-made widow. But imagine her surprise and the chagrin of the friendly undertaker to find that the husband's body had been taken to the opposition undertaking parlor. Under due pressure from the undertaker who had befriended her, she issued a written order that Undertaker No. 1 was to deliver the body to Under-taker. "I will help you distribute the money," the rancher volunteered. So Mr. Sionhe went to Los Angeles with two men, he said. All three went to a room in a hotel at East Sixth street and Ceres avenue, where, the rancher asserts the other two told him that he would have to raise $7000 as a guarantee of good faith. Mr. Sionhe had $5000 in cash and started to raise the other $2000. He went to a friend who became suspicious when he learned of the plan and called the police. Detective-Sergeants Cahill and Fitzgerald went with Mr. Sionhe to the room in the East Sixth street hotel and found it empty. Then in a police machine, they scoured the neighborhood with the rancher in the tonneau At East Fifth and Hewitt streets, the rancher grabbed Detective Cahill's 374/20 THE NEWS BRYAN ASSAILS COX AND H.S.CUMMINGS Calls Choice of Democratic Convention Chairman a 'Tragedy' for the Party.

LINCOLN, Neb., May 13.-William Jennings Bryan turned his political battles tonight on Hemer & Cummings, Chairman of the Democratic National Committee, and Governor Cox of Ohio. In a statement given out here he says: The selection or Chairman Cummings is bound by the keynotes of the Democratic National Convention is worse than a comedy. It is a tragedy. It is a melancholy beginning if the Democrats have any intention of making a campaign this year. If the Democratic Party is to be wrapped in a wet shroud, locked up in a Wall AND THEY SAY A few evenings back a woman espied a man whom she suspicioned of having annoyed her the evening before, when she was off her guard, and grabbed him by the coat collar. She called to her daughters to assist her and take the fellow to jail. The girls were afraid and went into the house. The mother proceeded to march the man uptown to turn him over to the police, but after going several blocks, and meeting no one to help her, permitted the man to go. Next day the fellow was picked up by an officer on suspicion and the woman recognized him as being the man she had collared. He was released on $25 cash bail. He pleaded innocence. He said he could have knocked the woman down and escaped, but also said if he had done so he would have been adjudged guilty, sure enough, so he decided to go along peaceably with his fair captor. When his name was called by the court balliff he failed to answer roll call, and his ball money went to help swell the city warchest. Law breakers seem to have too many loopholes through which to loop the loop. Some plain people believe some service corporations are gouging. Just count your money and hand it over. People who own one or two story buildings may help solve the housing problem at not great expense by putting up another story. Going up in the air. wife to the victim's bedside before the man died the story runs. This act of kindness won the heart of the newly-made widow. But imagine her surprise and the chagrin of the friendly undertaker to find that the husband's body had been taken to the opposition undertaking parlor. Under due pressure from the undertaker who had befriended her, she issued a written order that Undertaker No. 1 was to deliver the body to Undertaker No. 2. This was done after a payment had been made Undertaker No. 1 for services rendered. Then the influence of friends was brought to play, and the widow decided she had made a mistake and re-ordered the body of her husband back to the morgue of Undertaker No. 1. His joy was of short duration, however, for it soon developed that an undertaker in a neighboring town was an old friend of the family, and he finally called, obtained possession of the corpse and buried it. Mr. Seale declared Saturday that favoritism by the Coroner for his opposition has gone so far as to cause the official in one instance to instruct attendants at the County Hospital that in the event of the death of a Mexican hurt in an accident his remains were to be taken to the McAulay morgue. The fued has reached the point where most residents of Fullerton have taken one side or the other, and it is rumored that the Coroner is planning to bring an action for damages against Mr. Seale asserting that remarks the undertaker is said to have made regarding "split fees" with the opposition undertaker have injured his reputation. It is with a certain degree of pride that we point to the fact that many of our depositors have been patrons of this bank for many years.

Mr. Bryan calls the Cox candidacy a disgrace as say: "The fact that the Democrats of two dry States, Ohio and Kentucky, have instructed for Governor Cox makes it proper to consider his position on the liquor question. It is becoming every day more and more apparent that he is the man about whose standard the wet forces will gather. "Governor Edward is a joke. A drunkard in the last stages of delirium tremens would have sense enough to know that Edward has no chance of nomination. Senator Hitchcock did not have any chance even before the Nebraska primary, hence he had nothing to lose. Governor Cox is their man and he has fairly won the dishonor that he seeks." After disgracing his State he aspires to reputation in which he could disgrace a nation. For years the men engaged in the liquor business have been the real anarchists of the country, far more dangerous than the professional anarchists. Governor Cox has become their candidate. His nomination would make the Democratic Party the leader of the lawless element of the country and his election, if such a thing were possible, would turn the White House over to those who defy the Government and hold law in contempt.
