IDENTIFIED CLOTHING STOLEN AT BREA Man Shot At Pasadena Believed to Have Looted Stores Wearing clothing alleged to have been stolen from the Woodfuff and Henniger store at Brea Wednesday night, Harry Allen, shot by a street car conductor in Pasadena, Friday when it was claimed, Allen attempted to rob him, lay today on a cot in Los Angeles County hospital. Sheriff C. E. Jackson, Traffic Officer O. K. Carr and one o the proprietors of t he Brea store went to Los Angeles in an attempt to identify the goods declared to have been found in the possession of the wounded man. Allen was shot in one hip and one leg by the conductor on a one-man street car when he boarded the car at the end of the ameda park line in Pasadena and ordered him to hand over his cash. The conductor knocked the highwayman's gun from his hand and brought his own into action. The police were soon called and Allen was rushed to the hospital. A circular sent out by the sheriff's office led to the Los Angeles authorities to believe that the stuff found in Allen's possession was stolen at Brea. It is understood that upon further investigation the officers found that some of the goods found bore the trade mark of the Brea store. The goods taken from the Brea store were valued at several hundred dollars. The burglar effected an entrance to the place through a sky-light, coming down to the floor on a rope. Authorities suspect the same thief of robbing the Placentia store as auto tracks identical with those in the rear of the Brea store were found in the alliance beside the Placentia store from the government in return for admitting a returned soldier or any other person to membership. It is amazinz that any such offer should be made or even suggested. "It is easy to understand the position that labor unions of Great Britain would place themselves in if they accepted the money and admitted veterans to membership, on that condition. In the first place, it would be an admission that the labor unions claimed and exercised the power to say whether a man who risked his life to save his country should later be permitted to work and earn the bread with which to preserve his own life. It may be that the unions across the Atlantic have that power, but it would be fatal to them to admit it. Unionism has always been opposed to monopoly, and there could be no monopoly worse than a monopoly of the right to work which means a monopoly of the right to live." "But particularly unwise would be any action that would savor of levying tribute upon the government in connection with its effort to get back into productive occupations the men who left their jobs, their property and their families to take up arms and endure hardship, suffering and disease as they faced horrible death in the shell-torn fields of the gas-filled trenches of France. "The former soldiers either have a right to work or they haven't a right. If they have the right, there should be no need for the government to pay the labor unions $19.00 or any other sum. If they haven't the right, then the government would be in dishonest business to pay that sum or any other sum. "The outcome of the proposal for the government to pay the labor unsaid that after their marriage her husband told her that he had another wife living in Missouri." HARDING TO HATE The decision of Mr. Harding's pals will take no further pains affairs will be a Not pique but an ad verdict rendered in the president in could settle nothing the American people it is doubtful if he by the powers as titate on important problems. His pals have gone sadly all Americans decline use of Nations, but Poland, England, Ireland have varied from old settlements and ed at the great national observers' idealism has been letter and spirit in final gathering in at Versailles. Mr. Harding's pals has been outlined not only at home but at Geneva repressible conflict sembly and the cont impends, the disaffect amounting to a life that mere bumpkin that country. This quitted by soft wives the scheme are used arguments in context looked upon as an amment, or by affect opposition of America. The suggested ar will approach the ferent angle, planning control and dispositions questions; not more old methods, but integral independence. It is understood that upon investigation the officers found that some of the goods found bore the trade mark of the Brea store. The goods taken from the Brea store were valued at several hundred dollars. The burglar effected an entrance to the place through a sky-light, coming down to the floor on a rope. Authorities suspect the same thief of robbing the Placentia store as auto tracks identical with those in the rear of the Brea store were found in the alleyway beside the Placentia store. Among the articles stolen from the Brea store were eleven watches, wearing apparel, boiled ham, bacon, coffee and cigarettes. A WISE DECISION Commenting on press reports that the British Government has proposed to pay five pounds sterling to labor unions for each unskilled veteran of the world war admitted to the union and thus enabled to engage in the occupation over which the union has control, the Republican Publicity Association, through its President, Lion Jonathan Bourne, Jr. says "The purpose of the government is to decrease unemployment and expedite building operations. Reports from England are to the effect that labor union leaders look upon the offer as an attempted bribe, which is a view entertained by most other people. They indicate an intention to refuse the proposal." "The attitude of the British labor unions is wisely determined. Neither from the standpoint of their interests nor the ultimate interests of the country could they accept compensation right to work or they haven't a right. If they have the right, there should be no need for the government to pay the labor unions $19.00 or any other sum. If they haven't the right, then the government would be in dishonest business to pay that sum or any other sum. "The outcome of the proposal for the government to pay the labor unsaid that after their marriage her husband told her that he had another wife living in Missouri. She also said that her marriage to Risdon had been annulled when it was found that he had another wife living. She said that Risdon is the father of her seven-year-old child but that McCoy paid for the child's support. It also developed at the hearing that since McCoy's arrest his first wife had received a final decree for divorce. In view of the fact that the complaining witness declined to testify against McCoy, Deputy District Attorney A. P. Nelson moved that the case be dismissed.

FULLERTON, CALIFORNIA ANAHEIM GAZETTE HARDING TO HAVE CLEAR FIELD The decision of President Wilson to take no further part in international affairs will be approved generally. Not pique but an appreciation of the verdict rendered in November supports the president in his attitude. He could settle nothing in the name of the American people at this time, and it is doubtful if he would be accepted by the powers as authorized to negotiate on important and continuing problems. His plans laid at Paris have gone sadly askow; not only did Americans decline to accept the League of Nations, but Italy, Jugo-Slavia, Poland, England, France and Belgium have varied from or joined in modifying settlements and adjustments reached at the great conference. International observers agreed that Wilson's idealism has been violated in both letter and spirit in the days since the final gathering in the Hall of Mirrors at Versailles. Mr. Harding's policy, as far as it has been outlined, is getting support not only at home but abroad. Developments at Geneva showed that an irresponsible conflict between the assembly and the council of the League impends, the disaffection of Argentine amounting to a little something more than mere bumptiousness on part of that country. This spirit will not be quitted by soft words supporters of the scheme are uttering, by plausible arguments in continuation of what is looked upon as an impossible arrangement, or by affecting to ignore the opposition of American republics. The suggested association of nations will approach the problem from a different angle, planning for rational control and disposition of international questions; not merely a renewal of the old methods, but the preservation of integral independence to each country. INDUSTRIES RESUMING The beginning on a definite and a generous scale, of industrial revival in the eastern manufacturing centers, is denoted in frequent news dispatches. Automobile factories are the latest to feel the reviving impulse. This revival is significant, because it is indicative of an easing of the general economic situation. The people are buying automobiles, stocks have been pretty well sold out and the factories are working to supply demand. There is no sentiment of camouflage about this industrial rejuvenation. It is just sheer business. Factories are running to meet actual demands. And these actual demands indicate a healthier tone to the economic situation. But there should not be over-expectation in this. Industry will not swing back to full normal in a day. The process will be gradual, necessarily. Hence it would be a mistake for the people to go into rapsodies over this dawning revival, only to become disappointed and despondent, when the truth becomes impressed that the normalizing must come by degrees and not in a sudden flash, like a dispensation from above. But the situation at present and the indubitable prospects of the near future warrant the people of the United States in feeling assured and greatly encouraged. The peak of the temporary industrial depression and situation seems to have been reached. The economic car is on the up-grade, and it is proceeding steadily. News from Europe is more reassuring too. The great unsolved problems of the World War are being ironed out one by one. Order and understanding gradually are being wrought out of the chaos. When the United States takes its attitude and formally brings about peace and demarks its importance, it is no surprise that the total area of Santa Barbara county is held in parcels of more than 2000 acres. Corresponding percentages figures for other counties are: Ventura, 40.4; Orange 53.6; San Diego, 43.1; Riverside, 53. and Bernhardino, 48.3. PROPOSED TO DIVIDE LARGE LAND HOLDINGS Senator Purkitt introduces Bill To Cut Up Big Estate Farmers of Orange county are interested in a bill presented by Senator Purkitt to limit land holdings in California. The bill is considered the most radical one of the hundred presented at the legislature. "They call me a Bolshevik now," says Purkitt, according to advice from Sacramento. Many persons pooh-poohed the whole Purkitt bill as utterly impractical and impossible under the lay. The measure would limit holdings of tillable lands to 1000 acres and of grazing lands to 2000 acres. One of the objects of the bill is to break up large land holdings. Some inkling of the shakeup the measure would cause, should it become law and held constitutional, can be gained by a story of the report on large land holdings prepared by the commission of immigration and housing in 1919. The report covers the counties of Santa Barbara, Ventura, Los Angeles, Orange, San Diego, San Bernardino, Riverside and Imperial. The report does not discuss large land holdings in Kern and other counties. In these eight counties the Southern Pacific houlds 2,598,775 acres of land, according to the report. Excluding this railroad property, 274 holdings in excess of 2000 acres total 2,295,140. The commission's report shows that 65.7 per cent if the total area of Santa Barbara county is held in parcels of more than 2000 acres. Corresponding percentages figures for other counties are: Ventura, 40.4; Orange 53.6; San Diego, 43.1; Riverside, 53. and Bernhardino, 48.3. quited by soft words supporters of the scheme are uttering, by plausible arguments in continuation of what is looked upon as an impossible arrangement, or by affecting to ignore the opposition of American republics.

REVIVAL OF THE KU KLUX More than 500 candidates waded knee deep in water and slush at Birmingham, Alabama recently into the mystic Cave of the Knights of the Ku Klux Klan and mounted to the heights of superior knighthood, where they now sit among the Gods of the empire invisible. The ceremonial described as the greatest since the founding of the new organization of the Klan, was held on the fifty-fourth anniversary of the taking of the oath as Imperial Wizard by General Bedford Forrest, when the original invisible empire of the Ku Klux was founded on January 27, 1886, in the hills of Tennessee. Half the Alabama State Fair Grounds where the ceremony was held, was flooded knee deep in water. The candidates were not allowed to pick dry spots, but were forced to splash forward to the strains of weird music. The initiates took the oath about the fiery emblem of the order, on the inside of a great quadrate, formed by hordes of white-robed, hooded figures. The outer walls of the great square were guarded by klannish horsemen, that none might enter but those who were conversant with the secrets of the Order. The klansmen, shrouded in white, formed a living cross in the center of the race track; each held a cross aloft, the standard being white and the cross arms red. Two great search-lights played upon them In front was a throne on which sat the Imperial Wizard, surrounded by a thousand or more klansmen. The candidates were marched forward in fours, passing the thrones and the cross, and there, in front of the throne, the oath was administered by soft words supporters of the scheme are uttering, by plausible arguments in continuation of what is looked upon as an impossible arrangement, or by affecting to ignore the opposition of American republics. The suggested association of nations will approach the problem from a different angle, planning for rational control and disposition of international questions; not merely a renewal of the old methods, but the preservation of integral independence to each country while providing for adjustment of differences affecting any or all on a basis of justice, setting right as the standard and not political expediency.

MUST DO JUSTICE TO CALIFORNIA In pursuance of his declared intention to provide adequate tariff protection for California products, Senator Hiram Johnson has introduced amendments to the Fordney Emergency Tariff Bill to impose import duties upon imported olives and olive oil. The amendments provide for a duty of twenty-five cents per gallon on olives in solution and five cents per pound on olives not in solution. The duty on olives is fixed at sixty cents per gallon in bulk and seventy cents per gallon in containers of less than five gallons. In a speech on the floor of the Senate, the Senator referred his determination that the needs and requirements of California shall be recognized in the pending tariff bill" he said "with amendments to do justice to the territory which I represent." Anaheim Gazette, fifty-two weeks for $1.50. The klansmen, shrouded in white, formed a living cross in the center of the race track; each held a cross aloft, the standard being white and the cross arms red. Two great search-lights played upon them. In front was a throne on which sat the Imperial Wizard, surrounded by a thousand or more klansmen. The candidates were marched forward in fours, passing the thrones and the cross, and there, in front of the living emblem, the oath was administered. This was the first time in history that the public has been permitted to witness the conclave. Newspapermen were permitted to stand on a house inside the fair grounds enclosure, with guards on all sides to see that they kept the places assigned to them. W. J. Simmons of Atlanta, Imperial Wizrd, in a statement to newspaper men, said the new order stands for: One hundred per cent Americanism and reconsecration to bedrock principles; White supremacy; To keep forever separate Church and State; To protect woman's honor and the sanctity of the home. Simmons cited the following figures on the membership of the Ku Klux Klan: "The order has 30,000 members above the Mason and Dixon line, it has 7,000 in Chicago. Seven hundred inquiries have been received from Los Angeles regarding the organization of a Klan on the Pacific Coast. A Middle West domain office is to be established either in Chicago or Cincinnati. The present organization was incorporated in 1915. It includes in its ranks a few survivors of the original Klan." APPORTIONMENT The passage by the house of representatives of a bill fixing the basis of population for a member of congress at 242,415 serves to clear up the situation so far as California is concerned. It is now certain that this state will have 14 members of Congress and this will force material changes in apportionment plans that were based on the theory that we should have 16 members. Los Angeles will still be entitled to four members of the lower house or at least very close to that. The shortage of population for four members is so small that it may be disregarded or Orange county on the south or Ventura on the north might be added to/one district. Conceding four members to Los Angeles, the natural grouping for the other counties in Southern California is as follows: Riverside ..... 50,297 Orange ..... 61,375 Imperial ..... 43,383 San Diego ..... 112,248 Total ..... 267,303 This is 25,000 surplus, in round numbers, but that margin is not at all unusual in the grouping of counties to form a district. Starting with San Bernardino, several groupings could be made, but the following seems logical: San Bernardino ..... 70,401 Mono ..... 360 Inyo ..... 7,031 Kern ..... 54,843 Ventura ..... 28,724 Santa Barbara ..... 41,997 Total ..... 206,056 This makes a district with a shortage of population but not much more than the surplus in the Riverside district. It may be however, that Tulare Tract, Third Road District, was declared a public road. Portions of Diamond Street and Catalina Street, in the Fifth Road District, were declared a public road. Purchasing agent was instructed to get price on Electric Holst. Changes in boundaries in Election Precints in Third Supervisorial Districts were ordered made. As per changes created by recent incorporation of Orangesthorpe City and annexation of territory to Anaheim and Fullerton. BUREAU OF ECONOMICS The Bureau of Economics, created to make exhaustive studies of the economic requirement of California and to look into the financing and needs for adequate development of public service organizations, has been thoroughly financed and set up in Sacramento. The findings of this Bureau will be placed from time to time before the banks and financial houses of the State. The newly created bureau has been assured the full support of the public service organizations of the State, which have agreed to throw open their books of statistical records for the furtherance of the proposed studies. D. M. Reynolds, of Pasadena, who becomes the Managing Director of the Bureau, thoroughly understands the method of obtaining and disseminating information of this type. During the war he was in charge of this work for the United States Council of National Defense for the territory west of Chicago. Mr. Reynolds is thoroughly acquainted with California conditions, especially in connection with utility and transportation companies. At the present time he is Director of Re- The Southern 775 acres of land report. Excluding hay, 274 holdings in total 2,295,140.

SUPERVISORS PROCEEDINGS Personal property belonging to the County of Orange, being one Ford Ambulance, was sold for cash to the highest bidder, for $400.00. Franchise under the application of the Petroleum Midway Co. Ltd., was sold to them for $100.00. Ordinance No. 110, granting Dan Murphy and R. F.

Burson, et al., to vacate and abandon certain streets located in the Silverado School District, was presented and set for hearing, March 1, 1921, at 10:00 a.m. Total ...206,056 This makes a district with a shortage of population but not much more than the surplus in the Riverside district. It may be however, that Tulare with 59,031 will be added. Overtures have been made to Orange to agree to go in with the Long Beach-Whittier section of Los Angeles county to form a district leaving the southernmost district of the state to be made up of Riverside, Imperial and San Diego. Another suggestion is to include Ventura with a part of Los Angeles county and add Tulare to the San Bernardino district. The San Bernardino people have also proposed Orange that a district be made up of Orange, San Bernardino, Inyo, Mono, Kern and either Tulare or Santa Barbara. It seems certain that Riverside will be tied up with Imperial and San Diego; and with the alignment in sight for ten years, we are naturally anxious to have another county in the district that combined with Riverside would hold San Diego level. That is why we hope the Orange county people will elect to cast in their lot with us. The interests of the two counties are identical, so far as federal legislation is concerned, and we have been accustomed to work together in matters of politics and community interests—Riverside Press. Mr. Reynolds is thoroughly acquainted with California conditions, especially in connection with utility and transportation companies. At the present time he is Director of Research for the First National Bank of Los Angeles and the Los Angeles Trust and Savings Bank. Actively associated in this work with Mr. Reynolds are such men as Herbert N. Shenton, of Columbia University, formerly Director of the United States Council of National Defense, who will have charge of New York and Washington offices; R. M. MacLennan, formerly of the United States Food Administration; and James R. Nourse, of Washington, D.C., who is in charge of the distribution of data from Sacramento. Sacramento was chosen as the distribution center for the bureau through various departments of the State Government. The information disseminated by this bureau will be at the disposal of the banks and financial houses of the State and those eastern financial houses which are interested in California securities, and it is the announced policy of the bureau to put into effect for California's industries a machine for gathering and distributing information similar to that set up in Washington during the war. "The need for proper development of California's natural resources and her utilities along magic economic lines," Mr. Reynolds declared in a statement issued recently "is readily shown by the fact that while, during the last census period, the population of California increased 44.1 per cent, the demand for hydro-electric power jumped from 1,250,000,000 kilowatt hours annually to 3,750,000,000 kilowatt hours—300 per cent.

"Before the War we on the Pacific coast could go to the east for money to carry on our work, while the east could go to Europe for aid in finan­cizing American projects. Today the entire situation is changed. New York is now the money center of the world, and the Pacific coast must compete not only with eastern demands but with Europe, for that part of the eastern financial support which was formerly freely accorded to us. This results in two things; The securities which we attenmp to float in the eastern Market must be of a higher grade than they have been in the past, and earnings must be assured."
