In a speech before the biennial republican state convention at the Capitol building, Sacramento, Tuesday, Samuel M. Shortridge, republican candidate for United States Senator, replied to the charge that Senator Harding and himself were reactionaries, as follows: "Is a Reactionary one who believes in a Republican form of Government? Is a Reactionary one who believes in the Constitution of the United States? Is a Reactionary one who believes in the great American doctrine of a Protective Tariff framed on accurate and authoritative information and with due regard to the varied and inter-dependent industries of the nation? Is a Reactionary one who believes in development, not squandering the great natural resources of state and nation? Is a Reactionary one who favors encouraging our Merchant Marine whereby American labor and America are awayed by passion, who relies on truth and reposes confidence in the justice of the people? Senator Harding and we of California subscribe to and believe in the principles and policies of the Republican party as written into the history of America, and as now set forth in the Republican platform. Let no one think that he can successfully mislead the people. The people remember; the people know; the people will weigh and determine. The Republican party has ever been a party of progress. It's face has ever turned toward the future. Its history is one of accomplishment. Its very life has been dedicated to the welfare of all the people, to freedom, to the Union, to the Constitution, to American labor on land and sea, in shop and mine, on prairie and in forest. Its banner has been the ensign of the Republic, in storm and calm, and its inspiring watchword has been and is Progresss. Progress, not mere change; Progress, not revolution; but Progress, under and with fidelity to the Constitution, along safe lines, reverent of the past and its lessons wait in tears and blood; Progress, in developing the national resources, in bettering the economic condition of all the people; Progress, in enlarging the Republic, in spreading light and civilization, in conferring liberty on the oppressed, and at all times standing for righteousness, Progress, with liberty and the rights of man safeguarded by the Constitution of Washington, has been the glorious record and the high and patriotic purpose of the Republican party. Follow Republicans: Let us now write upon the banner of the Republican party, "America first," and In the great American doctrine of a Protective Tariff framed on accurate and authoritative information and with due regard to the varied and inter-dependent industries of the nation? Is a Reactionary one who believes in development, not squandering the great natural resources of state and nation? Is a Reactionary one who favors encouraging our Merchant Marine whereby American labor and American capital may be profitably employed on water as on land, whereby our foreign commerce may be increased by opening new and better communications with foreign land, whereby American products from shop and field may be carried in American ships built in American shipyards and officered and manned by Americans. Is a Reactionary one who would conduct the foreign affairs of the nation with courage, caution and sagacity? Is a Reactionary one who would set his face against all destructive, revolutionary, wicked and anarchistic doctrines which threaten the very temple of American liberty? Is a Reactionary one who reverently believes in liberty hedged round and protected by just and equal law, who believes there is none so poor or weak as to be beyond the law's protection; who would be true to his own and would "preserve, protect, and defend the Constitution of the United States?" Is a Reactionary one who is incorruptible, who is calmed when others LECTURES ON BETTER HOUSING Betterment of housing conditions in the State and proposed solutions for the dwelling famine are subjects which will be presented to the people through the Extension Division of the University of California by Dr. Carol Aronovici, former director of Housing, of the California Commission on Immigration and Housing. A series of lectures has been prepared by Dr. Aronovici, and he will be scheduled before organizations in the state through the Lecture Department of the Extension Division of the University.

Panadium, through discoveries which rank among the most important results of comparatively recent scientific research, has become an extremely vital element in the automobile industry of today. By the addition of vanadium in the proportion of around four pounds to a ton, it is estimated that the tensile strength of steel is increased at least 45 per cent. This additional toughness imparted by vanadium has made it possible to build high class automobiles and trucks vastly lighter in weight than in former years with still greater strength to withstand the shocks, jars and strains to which they are subjected in general use. Recent advices received by the Moreland Motor Truck company are to the effect that the deposit referred to at Minas Ragra has vanadium ore actually in sight to the extent of 36,000,000 pounds, while the total metallic content of the deposit is estimated at a minimum of at least 100,000,000 pounds. While there may be large deposits yet undiscovered in other sections, the vast amount in this deposit constitutes 95 per cent of the known vanadium in the entire world. These mines have been worked under the greatest difficulties because of the character of the country about them and their extreme inaccessibility. While the great extent of surface ore made the actually mining comparatively easy, the difficulties of transportation have been tremendous. Two years ago every bit of the taxation, and specifically excludes single tax; Ohio, which does the same as Missouri; South Dakota, which prevents the initiative from being applied to any matter affecting peace, health, safety or taxation; New Mexico, where the initiative cannot be applied to taxation; Arkansas, which prevents the initiative from being applied to peace, safety or taxation; Colorado, which specifies peace, health, safety and taxation; Kentucky, which reverses the proposition making the initiative applicable only to taxation, and Missouri, which permits the initiative to be applied only to matters affecting the public health. In the adoption of Amendment No. 4, California will be striking at the single tax, but will in no degree reflect upon or impair the initiative. The state will, however, be protected from a small minority of the people who intent upon bringing about the adoption of the single tax, and never able to do so, succeed only in injuring the credit of the state among the bond buyers and large financial concerns, whose money is used in large part for the development of the industries of the state. BABY HANGS ITSELF Hanging by her head between the bed and the wall, the five-months-old daughter of C. H. Tinker of La Habra, was at the verge of passing over into that heavenly land, where hosts of other babies have gone, when she was discovered. She was unconscious when she was found. It was two hours before she opened her eyes. She was as close to death as a baby could be and not die. deposits yet undiscovered in other sections, the vast amount in this deposit constitutes 95 per cent of the known vanadium in the entire world. These mines have been worked under the greatest difficulties because of the character of the country about them and their extreme inaccessibility. While the great extent of surface ore made the actually mining comparatively easy, the difficulties of transportation have been tremendous. Two years ago every bit of the ore mined by the American Vanadium company had to be carried on the backs of llamas to the nearest railway point, many miles away through rough, precipitous mountain country with no roads whatever, as we know them. THE INITIATIVE AMENDMENT In adopting an amendment to its constitution compelling those people who desire to change any law of the state affecting taxation or assessment to first secure a petition containing the signatures of 25 per cent of the voters, California is following the lead of nine other states out of nineteen that have the initiative. The nine states whose lead California will be following are Montana, which does not permit the initiative to be applied to matters of taxation; Missouri, which does not permit the initiative to be applied to matters of Hanging by her head between the bed and the wall, the five-months-old daughter of C. H. Tinker of La Habra, was at the verge of passing over into that heavenly land, where hosts of other babies have gone, when she was discovered. She was unconscious when she was found. It was two hours before she opened her eyes. She was as close to death as a baby could be and not die. The wee Clarice—for that is her name—was left upon the bed asleep. There was a space of a few inches between one edge of the bed and the wall. Awakening, the baby rolled over and over until she came to the edge of the bed. Her body passed through the open space, but her head caught, and there she hung. The breath of life had been almost completely choked out of her when she was discovered by her mother. Frantically, the mother cried for help and a physician arrived as quickly as automobile wheels could bring him. For two hours the doctor worked over the infant. Refusing to give up, though life seemed extinct, the physician moved the tiny arms up and down, up and down. Stimulants were applied and warmth was kept in the body. Finally came the reward. Slowly the baby regained consciousness. The war is over and war prices must go. Effective at once. Ford cars, Trucks and Tractors will be sold f.o.b.
