OFFICERS LOCATE JOY AT LOS ANGELES Man Who Fled From Valencia Hotel is Caught A. H. Joy, who on November, 18 eluded the officers sent by federal authority to the Hotel Valencia in Anaheim to make an investigation in view of placing a statutory charge under the Mann act against him, and who escaped in a Dodge sedan declared to belong to S. W. Miller of Anaheim, has been apprehended in Los Angeles, where he has been living with a woman who while she was at the Valencia said she was Mrs. Joy. Joy was wanted by local authorities on a felony charge growing out of the alleged theft of the machine from Miller. A misdemeanor complaint is also held against Joy charging him with having left the Hotel Valencia with his baggage without paying his bill, and with having taken articles belonging to the hotel with him. Sheriff C. E. Jackson has been at work on the case and finally found trace of Joy at Huntington Beach. Joy was really betrayed by his peculiar use of the English language. It was found that a man who used the name of "Jack Rabbit" and who lived in Los Angeles was employed as an oil salesman by a Huntington Beach oil company. The man answered Joy's description. The man who had employed "Rabbit," however, felt positive that his new salesman was "absolutely o. k. in every respect." To encourage and aid agricultural development in reclamation projects $48,600 is asked. For protection of the forests from fire, congress is requested to authorize the expenditure of $125,000. For the completion, operation and maintenance of the government kelp plant at Summerland, Ca., an increase from $192,900 to $208,500 is asked. For fire prevention and suppression of fires in California and other forest regions on the Pacific Coast $50,000 is recommended to allow co-operation with the war department in maintenance of air patrols. Nearly $200,000 is provided for expenses incident to administration of various forests in California. The Bureau of Plant Industry contemplates an extensive program of grasses, alfalfa, clover and other forage crops, for a new estimate calls for $101,408. Thirty thousand dollars is needed for experiments in propagating fruit trees and $110,000 for studies of behavior of fruits during the process of marketing and other fruits in commercial storage. For inquiries into citrus canker and diseases of orchards in California and elsewhere appropriations of $109,720 and $101,136, respectively are recommended. An increase of $50,000 is submitted for the promotion of American commerce in the Far East under the auspices of the Department of Commerce, making a total of $150,000 available. For improvements to the Mare Island navy yard the Navy Department requires $480,000.

WHY THE FOOT Few, indeed, ericans who Senator Harding the presidency Joy was really betrayed by his peculiar use of the English language. It was found that a man who used the name of "Jack Rabbit" and who lived in Los Angeles was employed as an oil salesman by a Huntington Beach oil company. The man answered Joy's description. The man who had employed "Rabbit," however, felt positive that his new salesman was "absolutely o. k. in every respect." "When he is selling oil stock he always uses this phrase: 'She's going to come in, and when she does she'll come in as clean as a hound's tooth,' declared the officer making the investigation. 'That's the man,' stated Rabbit's employer, and immediately gave Joy's Los Angeles address to the investigating officer. Several weeks after taking the car, Joy left it at a garage at San Diego and a few days later telegraphed to Miller informing him of its whereabouts, and thanking him for the "loan" of it. Joy, who was traced to Huntington Beach is said to have abandoned a wife and three children in Washington when he came to California with the woman who is declared now to be posing as "Mrs. Joy," and her baby. It is said that Washington authorities hold warrants for him charging desertion. The federal authorities were gathering evidence against him at the time of his escape in a view of placing "white slave" charges under the Mann act against him. When Joy found the federal officers on his trail, he bundled up his belongings into the baby carriage. The woman wheeled them out to the car, which he had borrowed from Miller on the alleged pretext of using it for a few minutes. Manager Clark of the Valencia hotel had no idea Joy was leaving. He merely thought the woman was going to wheel the baby around. He will be tried on the automobile theft charge. In case a conviction is not obtained he will be turned over either to the Washington or the federal authorities. MILLIONS FOR CALIFORNIA Millions of dollars in government funds will find their way to California, during the fiscal year ending June 30, 1922, if recommendations made to congress are allowed. The money will be expended for the maintenance or development of institutes included. An increase of $50,000 is submitted for the promotion of American commerce in the Far East under the auspices of the Department of Commerce, making a total of $150,000 available. For improvements to the Mare Island navy yard the Navy Department requires $480,000. WARNING TO CAR OWNERS Owing to the increasing number of automobile thefts occurring in Southern California, the Automobile Club of Southern California is sending out a warning to all car owners to exercise extreme care when leaving their cars unattended. Many thefts have been reported to the club's theft bureau and the various police departments and sheriffs' offices, such reports in many cases being accompanied by only meager details in description of the car. In order to facilitate the work of recovering stolen cars and apprehending the thieves, the club offers the following suggestions to the motorists: 1. Always carry a complete description of your car in your notebook. 2. Have note of licence number and motor number as well as a note of numbers on battery, generator, starter, horn, or any other equipment bearing serial numbers. Keep note of makes, sizes and serial numbers of tires. 3. Have complete description of car, such as color of body, top upholstery and running gear. If top is one of special make this should be noted as well as shape of the plate glass in side curtains or rear. 4. Place private identification marks on car in several places known only to yourself. 5. Report the theft immediately in order that proper steps can be taken to recover. An average of seventy-five automobiles are daily taken from New York City curbs by some one other than the owners, police records taken during November show, and only twenty to twenty-five of the cars are recovered by the police. It is estimated that auto thefts in New York City cause a property loss of $27,000,000 a year. As a result, 160 insurance companies have organized the Automobile Underwriters' Detective Bureau which will cost them $250,000 a year in the hope of curtailing the thefts. About 9000 cars were stolen in South- Few, indeed, ericans who Senator Harding presided over until Main office.

The money will be expended for the maintenance or development of institutions and public work. Indian schools, forest fire prevention, irrigation, farming, citrus culture and shipping are among the items provided for in the contemplated appropriations. Approximately $210,000 is recommended for purchase of lands and the support and civilization of Indians in California. This total includes $177,600 for education and support of 750 Indian pupils at Sherman Institute, Riverside. Eighteen thousand dollars is urged for the California Debris commission. The Department of Agriculture submitted several estimates for appropriations, part of which will be used in California. They want $67,500 to co-operate with the authorities of the states or individuals in investigation and development of livestock production in cotton districts and $50,000 for experiments connected with the establishment of dairying and meat production in Western states with semi-arid or irrigated districts. An appropriation of $66,660 is wanted to meet the emergency caused by the existence of the pink boll worm from Mexico. Of this total $39,840 would be spent in injection and disinfection of cotton seed to and from Mexico. A new fund of $100,000 is asked for collecting and the disseminating to American agriculturists information relative to world supply and needs. ARMENIAN ROCKS The United States is told that it cannot be considered in Mesopotanian business enterprises, development of oil lands etc., because the United States is not in the league of nations, but it can intervene in behalf of Armenia and negotiate a peace with Turkey. Great Britian, having taken a mandate of Mesopotamia, says that the equal opportunities specified in the covenant do not apply to nonleague members. Moreover we did not declare war on Turkey and therefore have no equity in the Turkish spoils but not having declared war on Turkey, we are in the best position to help out Armenia. Every time Uncle Sam takes his eyes off his front door some one tries to put the Armenian infant on his doorstep, but this latest suggestion, contained in a request from the league council to Mr. Wilson, is merely to hold the baby for a moment. If the United States does so it will look long in vain for the return of the person by whom the child was intrusted to it. We can say for the Europeans who have taken everything in Asia Minor except the rocks, Turks and Armenians of Armenia that they are un- ANAHEIM GAZETTE TAX LIST DELINQUENT In And For The CITY OF ANAHEIM, COUNTY OF ORANGE STATE OF CALIFORNIA, FOR THE FISCAL YEAR,1920-1921 Amount of Tax and Costs Owner Tract Lot Blk., Due Allen, C.

Few, indeed, of the millions of Americans who have just designated Senator Harding as their choice for the presidency know why he must wait until March 4, before taking office. Many perhaps, may be surprised to learn that the dates of election and of the inauguration are not prescribed by the Constitution. That document simply declares that "The Congress may determine the time of choosing the electors and the day on which they shall give their votes." It says nothing with regard to the date of the Presidential inauguration. Immediately following the ratification of the Constitution of the United States, the old Continental Congress after much wrangling selected March 4, 1789, for the establishment of the new government. And although Congress actually convened only on April 30, it was decided later that the first term should be deemed at an end on March 4, 1793. Since the President is to serve four full years, this date has ever since been accepted for the beginning of his administration. On March 1, 1793, Congress passed a law providing that the presidential electors must be chosen within 34 days preceding the first Wednesday in December. On January 23, 1845, this was amended to read the "Tuesday following the first Monday in November." The act of March 1, 1792, also fixes the day for voting in the electoral college as the first Wednesday in December. The date for the opening and counting of the electoral votes in Congress was set for the second Wednesday in February. It is obvious that these dates were placed at intervals no further apart than conditions of communication at that time made necessary. From one selection of the electors until the date of their meeting in each state was but a month or so. Two months later, after the votes had been brought to the Capital, some of them from points many hundred miles away, they were counted. Shortly after that act the President took his seat. Today there is, of course, no need of all this delay. The electors could be chosen, the college could cast its vote, and the President-elect could up in the possession of the country taking jurisdiction under that benevolent term, just as thoroughly as under the old colonial system. A mandate will be found to imply ownership. Getty, F. E. In Spoerl Tract, Summerfield and Oppenheimer Sub. Lot 2, Block 5 ... 1.82 Getty, F. E. In Spoerl Tract, Summerfield and Oppenheimer Sub.

Dated this 7th day of December, 1920. HATTIE DUGAS, Administratrix with the will annexed of the estate of Frank Thiry, deceased. 12-9-41. EXTRA SESSION LIKELY State officials at Sacramento believe that re-districting of California into Congressional, state senatorial and assembly districts will not be done until late in the summer or early in the fall of 1921. They say that an extra session of the legislature will be necessary. The belief of these state officials is based on the assumption that Congress will not allot the number of congressmen to each state, according to a fixed district population, until after the regular session of the legislature. The legislature cannot proceed with its reapportionment work until congress has acted. In 1911 it was necessary to hold an extra session of the legislature in the fall to reapportion the districts, as congress did not complete its reapportionment duties until in August. With many states showing a population increase or corresponding decrease under the 1920 census, there will be a grand scramble in Congress to increase the representation of the states showing a decided growth and to cut down the states with the greatest loss. In 1911, Congress increased the number of representatives by forty-two, fixing the total number of congressmen at 433. By virtue of this increase, California was assigned three new congressmen. But it is declared sentiment: in Congress is against further increasing the number of congressmen, and this opposition resulted in preventing passage of the reapportionment act in time to permit the legislature to act. California's population increased from 2,377,549 to 3,426,536 since 1910 and due to this showing it is considered likely that her representatives in congress will insist on at least three more congressmen. Congress in 1911 fixed the population for each congressional district at 211,877, which according to 1920 census figures, would entitle California to four more congressmen, or fifteen in all. However this population allotment is expected to be raised considerably, but as California's increase was 1,048,987 in ten years, it is expected the States request for greater representation will be granted.
