Titus, alias James H. Gordon, was still in the county jail, awaiting the arrival of a warrant from the authorities of San Diego charging him with a similar offense. Gordon was tried on a charge of having bullarized the home of Mr. and Mrs Crist Haas, 503 East Broadway, Anaheim, on the night of December 1, last. Upon instructions to the jury he was found not guilty. Judge Williams so instructed the jury after Lieutenant J. A. Lopez of the San Diego police department testified that he told the defendant, following his arrest in the city, that it would be better for him to tell the police what he knew about the burglary. Upon this admission on the part of the officer Judge Williams ruled that the coaxing constituted an inducement for the defendant to admit his guilt and that it excluded a confession. Judge Williams said that under the circumstances he could do nothing else but order a verdict of not guilty. The jury returned such KROEGER MAY SOON CUT B CITY TRUSTEES C PROPOSITION TO THE C F. A.

S. Q. R. Store are the ings on either side of persistently strike to The proposal of the Anaheim Chamber of Commerce to inaugurate an annual Valencia orange show, met with the unanimous endorsement of the Associated Chambers of Commerce at the monthly meeting held at St. Ann's Inn, Santa Ana, Wednesday evening, and judging by the sentiment expressed by the members the entire county will enthusiastically back the enterprise. San Bernardino has its national orange show staged at a time of year when the navals are at their best and the valencias are practically out of season, and a show given at a time when the Valencias are at their best would probably prove just as popular and attractive. Anaheim is the logical place for a valencia show, as we are the center of the valencia belt, and the finest oranges in the world are grown in this neighborhood. Secretary Malcolm Fraser of the Anaheim Chamber, presented the matter to the Associated Chamber Wednesday night, and asked for the support of that body. Lew Wallace, harbor booster and banker of Newport Beach, offered the motion which brought hearty and unanimous endorsement of the proposed display. J. P. Baumgartner complimented the Anaheimers on their enterprise and assured them that they would have the full support and co-operation of the Register. In presenting the plans for the show, Frazer took occasion to make reference to action some months ago of the Anaheim Chamber of Commerce in adoption of resolutions opposing the further expenditure of Orange county money on Newport Harbor. He said that the intent of the resolution had been entirely misintermerely commended that no more money be spent on the county harbor until San Pedro harbor had developed tonnage enough to make it a harbor of importance and a fair competitor with San Fancisco, Seattle and other larger harbors. "There is a time of the year when a certain industry we are all interested in can be pushed to the front, and that is an exposition of the g eat merit of the valencia district, said Frazer, in introducing the show subject. "The Anaheim Chamber of Commerce has developed plans for holding a valencia orange show, and has selected May 19 to 22 as a tentative titled that he told the defendant, following his arrest in the city, that it would be better for him to tell the police what he knew about the burglary. Upon this admission on the part of the officer Judge Williams ruled that the coaxing constituted an inducement for the defendant to admit his guilt and that it excluded a confession. Judge Williams said that under the circumstances he could do nothing else but order a verdict of not guilty. The jury then returned such a verdict without leaving the box. Stolen silverware which had been brought into the courtroom as evidence was identified by Mr. and Mrs. Haas as theirs. Judge Williams permitted them to take the silverware, which according to Mr. Haas was given to the couple fifty years ago as a wedding present. Deputy District Attorney A. N. Mozley who conducted the prosecution said there is no doubt in his mind as to the guilt of Gordon. SOLVES PROBLEM OF TRANSPORTATION Trahern Company Originates A New Method of Making Dates An endless quantity of language has been spilled concerning the "uplift of the drama," but it has remained for Al Trahern, originator of the "circuit stock company" to demonstrate that what the drama really needed was transportation instead of uplift, says the dramatic editor of the Express. Down in Orange county, Trahern is regularly demonstrating a new development of the "legitimate" stage, a circulating stock company, whose round of "one night stands" are made in perfect comfort instead of the concentrated discomfort that generations of actors have associated with the term. His organization of fifteen, eleven of whom are actors, make their headquarters at Anaheim. They play in that town two nights each week. Other nights they play in Brea, Santa Ana, Corona, and Whittier. On the four nights that the company plays elsewhere than Anaheim, the Reo truck carries company and scenery to and from their Anaheim headquarters. The longest journey, that from Corona, is accomplished in less than an hour and a half after the performance is over. Trahern, who has been thirty years in the theoretical business, and has been associated with William A Brady, There is now a problem with two-story Kroeger south side of West Coyote in the middle tween Los Angeles and shortly be cut back with its neighbors and the Dreyfus bloom Angeles street corner.

"There is a time of the year when a certain industry we are all interested in can be pushed to the front, and that is an exposition of the g eat merit of the valencia district, said Frazer, in introducing the show subject. "The Anaheim Chamber of Commerce has developed plans for holding a valencia orange show, and has selected May 19 to 22 as a tentative date for the first exposition. If the first show is a success, we hope to make it an annual event. The date does not in any way conflict with displays held in other districts of Southern California. "We will put on a big publicity campaign and will offer prizes. We expect to spend between $8000 and $10,000 in developing the new show, and anticipate a financial loss the first year. Anaheim citizens will provide the funds and are willing to go in the "red." "We want the other industries of the county represented in the show and ask the endorsement of this body." INCOME TAX Elmer Burns of Santa Ana who is in charge of the work of preparing income tax statements in Orange county, will have a deputy at the city hall on Friday and Saturday next for the purpose of assisting citizens in preparing their tax statements. Those who are interested may go to the city hall to confer with him. Harry Horn is the new president of the Buena Park Farm Center, having been elected at the annual meeting held recently. Other officers chosen were; C. L. McComber, vice-president; H. F. Hartman, secretary-treasurer and Dr. J. R. Schofield, director. Taxed to its capacity, the Fullerton hospital has been forced to refuse admittance to patients. Mrs. Frank McBride, an Orangethorpe woman who was struck by an automobile and seriously hurt, was taken to the home of Robert Graham, near the hospital. The woman is suffering fractured ribs, severe scalp wounds and a badly lacerated body. Poor lights on the automobile are said to have caused the accident. An addition to the hospital to take care of the increasing demand of patients is contemplated.

Wm. D. Stephens in a letter just received at this office. Will the people permit the great Corporations to evade their just share of taxation? Will the plain people of the State consent to bear their due proportion of city and county taxes and in addition thereto shoulder the State taxes the Corporations should justly pay Will every merchant, farmer and home-owner consent to paying 22 cents additional to what he now pays on every hundred dollars in order that the Corporations may pay less than they should. SHALL THE PEOPLE OR THE CORPORATIONS GOVERN CALIFORNIA? In the just operation of the State's taxation system, the State's authorities, to-wit, the state Equalization Board of Control, have found that the particular Corporations from which our revenues are obtained should submit to certain increases if they are to EXCELLENT WORK ON HIGHWAYS OF COUNTY BIG SUM SPENT FOR ROADS AND BRIDGES AND OTHER IM PROVEMENTS PROPOSED Third District Leads All Others In Amount Used on Highways—Olive Bridge Additional Span Cost $30,800 and Yorba Bridge $33,500—Three Miles'of Pavement to be Put Down on Golden State Tract, Northeast of the City That Orange county is maintaining considerable activity in the building of paved highways is evidenced by compilation by County Engineer J. L. McBride of data on activities of the past year. Work started in 1920 completed and uncompleted and new work contemplated for immediate action shows a total of $488,545 expended in the There is now a probability that the two-story Kroeger block on the south side of West Center street, situated in the middle of the block between Los Angeles and Lemon, will shortly be cut back to a conformity with its neighbors. This building and the Dreyfus block on the Los Angeles street corner, occupied by the S. Q. R. Store are the only two buildings on either side of the street that persistently strike to the old property line, which was abandoned years ago by all the other property owners in the two blocks when it became necessary to widen the sidewalks in order to accommodate increasing traffic. The owners—at least they declined to cut the eight feet of frontage agreed upon and acted upon by other property owners—at least they decided to cut them down without compensation, and the two buildings have long projected into the sidewalk and spoiled the symmetry of the street. F. A. Yungbluth, one of the originators of the plan to widen the street, and to whom, more than any other man credit for the improvement is due, has been searching about endeavoring to complete the good work he and others started several years ago. The Kroeger block is now owned by Mrs. Amy Bradley of Riverlife, daughter of Henry Kroeger, the pioneer who built it. Mr. Yungbluth has discovered that the building can be bought and he has also found a purchaser who might buy it and cut it back provided the city will pay half the cost of the work. It will cost about $5000 to cut it down and put in a suitable front. The prospective owner he believed would be willing to pay half of this if the city will pay the other half. Mr. Yungbluth appeared before the city trustees Thursday night and laid the proposition before them. He had no interest in the matter he said other than as a property owner and business man on that street he was anxious to have the eyesore removed and the work of widening the street completed. After consulting in private with Mr. Yungbluth, City Manager Steward and City Attorney Ames, the trustees, stated they could give no definite answer that night, but will probably be ready with a decision at the next meeting. TROUBLE AT STANTON Petitions to recall several members of the city board of trustees of Stanton are being circulated there.

SHALL THE PEOPLE OR THE CORPORATIONS GOVERN CALIFORNIA? In the just operation of the State's taxation system, the State's authorities, to-wit, the state Equalization Board of Control, have found that the particular Corporations from which our revenues are obtained should submit to certain increases if they are to bear an equal tax burden with the general taxpayer. The present tax question is wholly one of equalization of taxes. It always has been, and must be, the established principle of this taxation system or any taxation system that the public utilities, the banks and the insurance companies shall pay taxes on an equal basis with the general property owners. The Corporations are at present time refusing to accept their just burden. If they are successful in the Legislature, it will follow that the people must submit to an ad valorem levy amounting to approximately 22 cents on each hundred dollars of the assessed valuation. The State needs additional funds for the next two-year period because of the $13,500,000 voted by the people for the schools, particularly to increase the salaries of teachers, and also because of the $4,000,000 shifted by vote of the people to the State when the counties were relieved of the payment of interest on highway bonds. Regardless, however, of the needs of the State, the incorporated interests should pay taxes on an equal basis with those paid by the general tax payer. Equalization of taxes is therefore clearly the pressing question involved in the presh high commendation those men who stood standfast with the peo bear upon them by powerful cor should recognize the worth of those men and women members who have stood for fair play and justice for the people.

recall several members of the city board of trustees of Stanton are being circulated there. According to information available today the recall petitions were started following the announcement that the several trustees in question had decided to spend all the available road improvement fund, approximately $6000 on Stanton Avenue alone. Those behind the petitions take the stand that other roads in the section should have been provided for under the fund, it was stated. The petitions are directed against Mayor Roe, Trustee Robinson and City Clerk Beecher. Trestee Hoskins, who has been absent for about a year, will be asked to resign. Trustee Redmond, who was declared to have been one of the prime movers in respect to the recall petitions, objected to the assorted plan some of the trustees to apportion the road fund entirely to Stanton avenue. His recall is not demanded. The petitions will be presented to the Stanton trustees at their next meeting, which will be held the second Monday in February. A mass meeting held several days ago was attended by approximately one hundred taxpayers of Stanton. It was at this meeting that the decision to circulate the petition was reached. Diamonds have been discovered in fallen meteors.

COUNTY PASTORS ORGANIZATION IS PLANNED Organization of the ministers of the county for consideration of county-wide matters coming within the scope of the activity of pastors was under consideration, following a suggestion that was made at a meeting of the Santa Ana Ministerial union that efforts be made to bring the pastors of the county into a general meeting at stated times throughout the year. The Rev. John Oliver, pastor of the First Methodish Church, and the Rev. F. T. Porter, pastor of the first Christian church, were appointed to develop plans and present the proposition to pastors of other cities and districts of the county. Unions exist in all the other incorporated cities and districts of the county and it is the opinion of local pastors that members will readily co-operate with the movement for a general county organization for the purpose of holding meet- WATER COMPANY HOLDS ANNUAL MEETING AGAIN UNABLE TO TRANSACT OFFICIAL BUSINESS FOR LACK OF A QUORUM Special Meeting Called for April 23 and an Effort is Being Made to Round Up a Working Majority—Committee Appointed to Investigate Company's Affairs and to Make Recommendations at the April Meeting—Old Board of Directors Holds Over Only enghteen hundred of the eight thousand shares of the Anaheim Union Water Company answered to roll call at the annual meeting of stockholders Saturday, consequently no official business could be transacted. Not since 1915 has a quorum been present at the annual meeting, and as the directors and members are very anxious that enough members get to- The Rev. John Oliver, pastor of the First Methodish Church, and the Rev. F. T. Porter, pastor of the first Christian church, were appointed to develop plans and present the proposition to pastors of other cities and districts of the county. Unions exist in all the other incorporated cities and districts of the county and it is the opinion of local pastors that members will readily co-operate with the movement for a general county organization for the purpose of holding meetings every few months for discussions of county-wide problems. It is believed that such sessions will be beneficial to the pastors and create a channel for concerted action on propositions that are more or less of county-wide importance. In addition to discussions on local matters it is proposed to have programs of speaking and reading that will prove beneficial to the members. In view of the fact that the Santa Ana city council Monday night authorized City Attorney G. H. Scott and Special Counsel Clyde Bishop to draft an ordinance giving the local police department authority to enforce the provisions of the Volstead act, the union yesterday did not take action with regard to a proposed recommendation to the council that such an ordinance be adopted. "Failure of the voters of California to approve the Harris bill at the general election last fall makes it incumbent upon the individual communities to provide enforcement laws, declared the Rev. F. T. Porter, secretary of the Ministerial union. "Only by such ordinances can we hope to receive the full benefit of the federal act and eliminate evils that exist now. It is possible that enforcement ordinances will be passed by every incorporated city in the country. With the board of supervisors adopting a like ordinance and with cities doing likewise I believe that we will get as good results as we would under the State enforcement law. With county and city police officials given full power, the force available for enforcement of the federal "dry" law should be sufficient to cope with the situation." THIEF RIDES AWAY WITH GATES' BICYCLE City Trustee Loses His Faithful Wheel Monday Evening Trustee Howard Gates was comMeeting—Old Board of Directors Holds Over Only enghteen hundred of the eight thousand shares of the Anaheim Union Water Company answered to roll call at the annual meeting of stockholders Saturday, consequently no official business could be transacted. Not since 1915 has a quorum been present at the annual meeting, and as the directors and members are very anxious that enough members get together to transmit business, it was decided that a special meeting be held on Saturday, April 23rd, and an especial effort be made to round up a sufficient number of stock holders to make a quorum. A committee consisting of C. C. Chapman, Samuel Kraemer and S. W. McCullogh was appointed to make a thorough investigation of the Company's affairs, and to report to the meeting April 23. This committee was also requested to urge members to attend the meeting in order that official action could be taken on any business or charges that might be suggested by the investigating committee or any other member. Although business of the corporation could not be transacted under the law without a quorum present, an informal discussion was indulged in by those present. The report of the board of audit which had been distributed to the eight hundred members previous to the meeting furnished a topic of interest to all, as it gave a complete resume of the business transacted during the past year, and made a number of recommendations for the coming year. Arthur Staley and C. H. Seaman constituted the board of audit, and the gentlemen reported that the indebtedness of the company increased a little more than $30,000 during the year. He amount received from assessments was practically all used in new construction and in addition to pumping plants and the board considered it wisely spent, as the company must depend more largely upon pumped water in the future. The needs will continue to increase and there is little likelihood of additional surface water supply. The auditors did not approve the policy of meeting a deficit in the cost of operations by increasing the indebtedness of the company. Each year should take care of its own expenses, either by regular income or by assessments. They suggest that water rates be raised sufficiently so that the sale of water will cover the operating expenses. Let the oil in- With county and city police officials given full power, the force available for enforcement of the federal "dry" law should be sufficient to cope with the situation." THIEF RIDES AWAY WITH GATES' BICYCLE City Trustee Loses His Faithful Wheel Monday Evening Trustee Howard Gates was compelled to do all his traveling and delivery work on foot Tuesday, as some sneak thief stole his faithful bike the previous evening. About seven o'clock Monday night Gates was in the Gazette office transacting business, leaving his bicycle parked at the curbing in front. When he got ready to mount and ride away he discovered that his wheel was gone, and had left no trace behind it. In the carrier attached to it was a box of printed envelopes, also a bouquet of flowers directed to Miss Margaret Billig of Chestnut street, which he was to deliver on his way home. The flowers were picked up in front of the Boston bakery the next morning by a lady and delivered to Miss Billig, but the box of envelopes were carried away by the thief. Howard went over to Fullerton, Tuesday following a supposed clue, but got no information of any value. The police are making investigation. Several stolen wheels have been recovered of late and this may be located soon. Mrs. H. E. Scott was operated on by the Drs. Zaiser at the county hospital Friday for a serious affection. The operation was successful, but she will be confined to the hospital for at least a month. Her daughter, Mrs. Viola Kirby, undenwent a slight operation the same day. Averages over a ten-year period, lemon growers claim, show that Orange county lemon groves are profitable and rank well up with oranges, and the movement to top-work lemon trees into oranges does not meet with very much favor here. Such a move is "too drastic," local growers say, and they are loth to go to the increased expense of working over their groves just because the lemon situation may be unsatisfactory for a year or two. "The lemon market will undoubtedly be better in a year or two," is the comment of FarmAdviser H. E. Wahlberg, "and we do not favor changing lemons into oranges now. The lemon industry goes in cycles, just like any other industry, and the good periods must absorb the loss which comes once in a while."
