VOLUME L. ALL EYES TURNED ON E. CENTER STREET WONDERFUL IMPROVEMENTS ARE SLATED FOR THAT THOROUGH-FARE THE COMING YEAR New City Hall Will Be the Pride of Anaheim, and the Postoffice May be Located Near It—Architect Preparing Plans for Samuel Kraemer’s New Block—Possibility That Salt Lake Will Build Through and Build Its Depot During the Year. Some weeks ago the scribe wandered out North Los Angeles street, and was so impressed with the wonderful building activity in that section of the city that he was constrained to write a story of the buildings under construction and the buildings in projection, as well as the new sub-divisions being opened up and grabbed up by prospective builders. On a later occasion a stroll out West Center street convinced him that the west section of ion that property values on East Center were bound to advance, and he considered it a good buy. His present ambition is to merely give the people of the east side a first-class theatre. Whether the postoffice will be located on the east or west side is a question at this writing which everybody is asking and nobody can answer. Bids for sites on both the east and west sides have been submitted and are being considered by postal authorities, and the decision will be made known probably within a day or two. Preponderance of opinion is that the east side will land the office. It is generally conceded throughout this section of the country that the Salt Lake railroad is preparing to build its extension on the right of way it purchased before the war put a stop to railroad building. The southwest corner of Center and Atchison streets was purchased by the road for its depot; and it was given out authoritatively that one of the finest depots in southern California would be erected on this site. Agents for the road have been through here recently, and there is a strong probability that work on the extension from Whittier to Santa Ana will begin shortly and that a beautiful new depot will be added to the architecture of East Center street, probably within a year. BOY SCOUTS RESCUED Some weeks ago the scribe wandered out North Los Angeles street, and was so impressed with the wonderful building activity in that section of the city that he was constrained to write a story of the buildings under construction and the buildings in projection, as well as the new sub-divisions being opened up and grabbed up by prospective builders. On a later occasion a stroll out West Center street convinced him that the west section of the city was just as active and enterprising as the northern section, and it was even money as to which was showing the greatest advancement or improvement. As a matter of fact the sound of the saw and hammer is heard in every direction, but at the present writing all eyes are turned toward East Center street, and people are wondering what is going to happen on that thoroughfare during the coming year. Compared with the other three principal business sections, East Center has been lying dormant during the past two years, but it is awakening now, and lively times are anticipated on that fortunate thoroughfare during the next year. Of course the most important of the new structures slated for East Center is the new city hall. After years of bickering, arguing and disputing the people finally voted $75,000 for a home for the city government, and work will begin on it as soon as the bonds are disposed of. It will stand at the corner of South Claudina and Center, where the old city hall and the Hart building now stands. Seventy-five thousand dollars will build a beautiful structure, especially as the brick in the two old buildings will be used in it, and Samuel Kraemer will pay half the cost of the east wall. Immediately adjoining this on the east the new Kraemer block will be built. This will be the largest business house in the city. It will extend from the city hall to the Southland hotel, and the ground floor is to be cut into four large store rooms. The upper story will either be office rooms or apartments. M. Eugene Durfee is drawing the plans now. There is a persistent rumor that Arnold Kraemer is preparing to build a splendid business house on the valuable ground opposite the city hall at the corner of Emily and Center, which he purchased some time ago. Nothing definite is known as to his intentions, Pulled fifty feet by rope in the dark of night to the top of a precipice in Santiago canyon with a yawning slide of several hundred feet below them, Joe Massie and Fred Linsdill, members of Troop I, La Habra Boy Scouts, are congratulating themselves on their rescue by Scout Commissioner S. J. Cornell, of Santa Ana. Their rescue reveals a thrilling descent, down the side of a steep canyon, by Cornell to where Massie and Linsdill were clinging to the branches of a small tree, and a slow ascent to the top fifty feet above. Massie and Linsdill, who are in the party of county Boy Scouts encamped in Santiago canyon, started Saturday afternoon to climb Robber's peak, a mountain about a mile away from camp. They lost the trail and believing they could find the way back to their camp, started to slide down the precipice which is not as steep near the top as it is farther below. By the time they had slipped fifty feet they were able to catch hold of the trunk of a tree. Unable to move either way, the boys were forced to remain where they were with darkness forming about them. Several other scouts, who were out on a reconnoitering trip and were returning to camp, heard the frightened shouts of Massie and Linsdill and signaled to their camp by flash-lights from the top of the precipice. Scout Commissioner Cornell and Scout Executive E. E. Heldt, realizing something was wrong, rushed to the ledge. A rope was tied tightly around Cornell and he was slowly lowered down the precipice while the scouts at the top held the end of the rope. "I couldn't see five feet in front of pot, and it was given out tively that one of the finest depots in southern California would be erected on this site. Agents for the road have been through here recently, and there is a strong probability that work on the extension from Whittier to Santa Ana will begin shortly and that a beautiful new depot will be added to the architecture of East Center street, probably within a year.

The chairman was point a committee nances, committee work, committee or mittee on incorporation membership and m hotel, and the ground floor is to be cut into four large store rooms. The upper story will either be office rooms or apartments. M. Eugene Durfee is drawing the plans now. There is a persistent rumor that Arnold Kraemer is preparing to build a splendid business house on the valuable ground opposite the city hall at the corner of Emily and Center, which he purchased some time ago. Nothing definite is known as to his intentions, but it is said that he is preparing to erect a block that will overshadow his dad's big building across the way. Another building in this section that is a certainty is a business block which Loren Gates is going to build on the lots adjoining the Masonic temple on the east. Mr. Gates just recently acquired these lots and will put up a two-story building with a fifty-foot front. It will contain two store rooms, one of which he will use himself, cutting a passageway between it and the room he now occupies in the Masonic building. Tenents in the Rust building, between North Claudina and Los Angeles streets, have been notified to vacate the premises by the first of March, as it is the intention of the owners to put a fine two-story building on this ground, which is considered too valuable to be encumbered by a one-story-building. The building is now occupied by McCullom's tea and coffee store, Dad Kennedy's Smoke House, and the Exchange furniture store, the Exchange people filling two rooms with their stock. A couple of weeks ago William Falkenstein purchased the new Grand opera house, and there is considerable speculation as to what his ultimate intentions are with regard to the same. Mr. Falkenstein states, however, that he purchased the property as an investment, as it was a foregone conclusion turning to camp, heard the frightened shouts of Massie and Linsdill and signalled to their camp by flash-lights from the top of the precipice. Scout Commissioner Cornell and Scout Executive E. E. Heldt, realizing something was wrong, rushed to the ledge. A rope was tied tightly around Cornell and he was slowly lowered down the precipice while the scouts at the top held the end of the rope. "I couldn't see five feet in front of me, it was so dark," said Cornell. "I had to judge where I was by the shouts of Massie and Linsdill. I finally got to them and the scouts above pulled us up to the ledge. ELOPERS ACQUITTED Testimony brought out at the preliminary hearing of Soroco Gutierez, Mexican, and his Spanish-American wife, Rose Tinker, charged with perjury in swearing to a false affidavit in securing a marriage license at Santa Ana, showed that the girl was "eighteen when she worked" and "fifteen" when she did not. The case was tried before Justice of the Peace Cox. It was full of surprises and peculiar angles. Judge Cox finally concluded that the girl did not know exactly how old she was at the time she procured a marriage license, and that her husband had no way of determining her age. Mrs. Josephine Tinker, of Watts, formerly of Compton, swore to the complaint charging her daughter and Gutierez with perjury. The couple secured a license July 1 and were married by Judge Cox, following an elopement from the home of the young woman. Mrs. Tinker arrived in Santa Ana before dawn the following day on the trail of the couple. They were arrested several days later when they returned to Compton. Malcolm A. Fraser, J. A.

That Emil Crespin is the man who attacked women here for a year or more past is the opinion of Officer Carr, who obtained Crespin's confession at the county jail following his arrest on a charge of attacking Mrs. Staley some weeks ago. Carr believes that if he had been permitted to take Crespin to San Quentin he would have obtained from him confessions of the various attacks upon women which have occurred here. He was unable to get this assignment, although he was very desirous of trying to get other confessions from the convicted man. Carr secured a confession from Mike Crespin,and the two brothers are now at San Quentin, Mike up for fifty years, and Emil for from one to fourteen. Carr has received the following letter from Emil Crespin: San Quentin, Cal., July 12, 1921. Mr. O. K. Carr: I am up here now and don't know how long I will be here. I am only glad that I am paying for my mistake, and I am thanking you for the advice you gave me about confessing, in which I saved my money and also some of the county's money. You treated me like a brother, and also my camel clinic.

A movement that promises to develop into the establishment of an institution that may make Anaheim eventually the mecca of crippled and deformed children, was explained at the directors' meeting of the Chamber of Commerce some days ago. Dr. H. D. Newkirk, of the Johnston-Wickett clinic, addressed the board and outlined the plans to be adopted, provided a fund of $10,000 can be raised. Many prominent persons in northern The active management of the Anaheim Chamber of Commerce will continue during the coming year in the efficient hands of Harry D. Riley and Malcolm A. Fraser. The re-election of these gentlemen as president and secretary will give universal satisfaction to the four hundred members of the reconstructed chamber, $a$, it is recognized a large part of the credit for the many things accomplished by that body during the past year is due to their activity and indefatigable labors. The newly elected board of directors, the members of which were chosen at an election conducted by mail, met and organized at a luncheon held at the chambers Wednesday noon. The twelve men receiving the highest vote were H. M. Adaws, H. A. Johnston, Harry D. Riley, W. T. Wallop, Leonard Evans, H. H. Benjamin, Charles Eygabroad, J. A. Clayes, George Dunton, R. C. Berger, F. A. Backs, Jr., and J. F. Ahlborn. Fred Backs, who was treasured during the past year, and Will Wallop, both tendered their resignations as members of the board, being unable to serve owing to press of private business, and the next two highest on the poll, Vic La Mont and Geo. M. Ross, were declared elected as members. In the election of officers Harry D. Riley was placed in nomination for chairman, and there was no opposing candidate. Mr. Riley did not want the job any longer, but being the unanimous choice of the directors, he accepted. He said: "I thank you for the honor, gentleman, but I had much rather you had chosen someone else for the job. However, if it is your desire, I will accept, and do the very best I can, and will hope to have the full support of the board and the membership in carrying on the activities of the organization." In the election of secretary the rules were suspended and the chair instructed to cast a unanimous vote for Malcolm A. Fraser. H. M. Adams and J. A. Clayes were elected vice-presidents, and H. H. Benjamin was chosen to take Mr. Backs' former job as custodian of the finances. The chairman was authorized to appoint a committee on budget and finances, committee on program of work, committee on committees, committee on incorporation, committee on membership and members' forum. Carr has received the following letter from Emil Crespin: San Quentin, Cal., July 12, 1921. Mr. O. K. Carr: I am up here now and don't know how long I will be here. I am only glad that I am paying for my mistake, and I am thanking you for the advice you gave me about confessing, in which I saved my money and also some of the county's money. You treated me like a brother, and also my wife. Now, Mr. Carr, my wife and myself have nothing against you for you have done your duty as every officer should do. Have you seen my wife lately? If you do see her will you tell her that I wrote to you, thanking you for your kindness toward us. I will close hoping to hear from you soon. Regard to Mr. Lacy and Joe, the jailer. Yours truly, EMIL CRESPIN, 35128. ORANGE COUNTY FARM LABOR ASSOCIATION Expected to Engage Labor for the Ranchers of the County With an employment director engaged, directors of the Orange County Farm Labor association Saturday were directing efforts for the opening of an office in Santa Ana. J. F. Jackson has been engaged to take charge of the office and direct its activities. He is ready to assume the responsibilities of the office. He was formerly with the Hummel Brothers agency in Los Angeles and previous to his employment there was connected with railroad construction work as an employer of labor. Final arrangements for starting operations of the office were made at a meeting of the executive committee of the association Friday afternoon. Directors and officers of the association are D. Sylvan Huff, manager of the Hewes estate at El Modena, president; C. V. Newman, manager for the San Joaquin Fruit company, vice-president; W. J. Cheney, bean grower and a director of the Lima Bean Growers' association, secretary-treasurer; W. G. Mitchell, manager of the Irvine ranch; C. A. Johnson, Orange county manager of the Holly Sugar corporation; Harry W. Lewis, president of the Santa Ana Walnut Growers' association; Dr. I. G. MoBeth, manager of the Bastanchury ranch at Fullerton; John Osterman rancher of El Toro. A movement that promises to develop into the establishment of an institution that may make Anaheim eventually the mecca of crippled and deformed children, was explained at the directors' meeting of the Chamber of Commerce some days ago. Dr. H. D. Newkirk, of the Johnston-Wickett clinic, addressed the board and outlined the plans to be adopted, provided a fund of $10,000 can be raised. Many prominent persons in northern Orange county are behirn the humanitarian project. A society called the Crippled Children's Relief association was formed some months ago in this city, the object being to give expert medical treatment to crippled and deformed children whose parents are not able to pay the enormous fees necessarily charged by specialists and institutions. Dr. Newkirk explained that the Johnston-Wickett clinic, with its expert staff of physicians, is competent to handle all such cases, and offers its medical services absolutely fee to all little patients brought to it through the relief association, but it expected the association will pay for the mechanical appliances and other paraphernalia necessary to the work. For this expense it is proposed to collect a fund of $10,000. Members of the campaign committee of the association, who will endeavor to raise the needed funds are Charles Eygabroad, chairman; H. M. Adams, Dr. Newkirk, Paul Taggart, H. H. Benjamin, Mrs. M. E. Canby, all of Anaheim, and C. C. Chapman, Rev.J.T.Houser, S.C.Hartranft and Mrs.Frank Morse, of Fullerton. Officers of the Crippled Children's Relief association are: Dr.Jessica Raiche,president; Mrs.Frank Keenan,vice-president; Mrs.Frank N.Morse,secretary; Miss Elsa Persson, recording secretary and treasurer; Mrs.M.E.Canby,secretary Anaheim division. Medical science has demonstrated that a large percentage of crippled and deformed children can be cured of their defects if taken in time but many are doomed to pass through the world helpless and dependent for lack of medical treatment because their parents were not able to pay the bills. It is these unfortunates that the Crippled Children's Relief association proposes to assist, and it is expected the institution will find an unlimited supply of patients. The action of the Chamber of Commission capital or California est institute relief or poor performance specialization unfortunate and have our most he furthest for them but pretend the advent institute.

JACK P Drops Jack this city sudden nessing son,Ho the Anington match and juting your father expired a suffer diseased him. Imman years after two scores hunt for Underbert P who wore Stacy a fight a ANOTHER GUSHER Drilling operations at Huntington Beach were spurred on with the announcement that oil at the rate of more than 2000 barrels a day was now flowing from the E. J. Miley well No. 1, which was brought in late Saturday afternoon at a depth of 2600 feet. Indications were that the well was one of the best brought in at Huntington Beach. Examination showed the gravity of the oil to be 21, which was said to be extremely high when a well first produces. The gas pressure was 190 pounds. The Miley well is located on the Vista Del Mar tract, just on the east side of the railroad track and approximately three blocks east of the subway. It is the first well to produce as much as 2000 barrels a day in that district and the gravity is higher than any yet brought in there, it was said. The well is owned by E. J. Miley, well known oil operator, who has several other rigs either drilling or under construction and who, it is understood, plans shortly to extend his leases. The first seventeen hours after the well was brought in showed that close to 1600 barrels of oil has been produced. This would make the average more than 2000 for a day, as good as any brought in in the Huntington Beach field for the past six months. C. V. Newman, manager for the San Joaquin Fruit company, vice-president; W. J. Cheney, bean grower and a director of the Lima Bean Growers' association, secretary-treasurer; W. G. Mitchell, manager of the Irvine ranch; C. A. Johnson, Orange county manager of the Holly Sugar corporation; Harry W. Lewis, president of the Santa Ana Walnut Growers' association; Dr. I. G. MoBeth, manager of the Bastanchury ranch at Fullerton; John Osterman, rancher of El Toro; Hugh T. Thompson, prominent citrus grower of Villa Park, and C. L. Crumrine, manager of the La Habra Citrus association. Organisation of the association has been under discussion for two months, having originated with the farm bureau, following successful institution of an association in Ventura county. The association is organized and supported by the large ranch owners, grower associations and packing houses which are largely employers of labor. Jackson will at once make a survey of the county, gathering data as to labor requirements of the farmers. This is to be compiled for ready reference and when he has this data in hand he will b₀ in position to place labor as the needs of employers develop. The employers and their labor requirements for various periods of the year will be indexed for ready reference. There will be no charge to laborers for placing them in positions. The purpose is to develop a source of labor supply when help is needed by agricultural interests. The association will be in close touch with similar organizations throughout the southland, having complete and definite information on the labor requirements and supply at the various points. The action of the Chamber of Commerce directors in endorsing the drive for funds has stirred up a hornet's nest. Physicians of the city outside the Johnston-Wickett clinic declare the movement is an advertising scheme for the clinic, and the Chamber of Commerce is being used as a medium to boost the institution. After hearing the statements of the committee of doctors and giving the matter consideration the directors of the chamber decided to withdraw the endorsement and to remain neutral in the campaign. The following statement was issued by the objecting physicians: "Drs. Beebe, Utter, O'Toole, Cole and Brastad met with the executive committee of the Crippled Children's Relief society and members of a special Chamber of Commerce committee at the Chamber of Commerce rooms on Saturday morning at 11 o'clock to discuss the proposed drive by the special Chamber of Commerce committee to raise funds for the Crippled Children's Relief society." "Dr. Brastad opened the discussion with a few remarks that in his opinion this drive should not be put on nor supported by the Chamber of Commerce, as such; that, after reading the articles appearing in the daily newspapers from day to day he could not believe that it was nothing more nor less than a tremendous advertisement."

"Dr. Brastad stated that he was in favor of helping crippled children in every possible manner; but objected to this flagrant advertising campaign put on for personal gain. Dr. Beebe spoke at length on the ethic of the medical profession, saying that it has always been obnoxious to any true physician and surgeon to get business in any other way than by doing good work and intimated that it was not the first time the Chamber of Commerce had been imposed upon by the same institution. "Dr. Cole advised the committee to investigate thoroughly before going ahead with this drive, saying that the doctors working for salaries in similar institutions in the east were not always competent; that merely advertising a man as a highly trained specialist did not prove him to be such. "Dr. Utter paid tribute to the Orange county hospital, reminding the committee that we have such a hospital, on of the best in southern California, equipped with all the latest instruments and appliances for the relief of suffering humanity, where the poor people of Orange county are getting as good care as is anywhere obtainable and where all doctors and specialists are welcome to treat any unfortunate, crippled or deformed patient requiring specialized attention."

"Dr. Utter further stated that he is absolutely opposed to commercializing the practice of medicine by advertising but that he had had to compete with advertising doctors in Anaheim for the past ten years and that all he asked from the Chamber of Commerce was an impartial attitude towards all doctors practicing in this city." JACK IMAN SUCCUMBS TO HEART FAILURE Drops Dead as His Son Is Announced Winner in Boxing Match Jack Iman, formerly police officer in this city, and later under sheriff, died suddenly of heart failure while witnessing a boxing match in which his son, Homer Iman, was participating in the American Legion arena at Huntington Beach Wednesday night. The match was a hard three-round bout, and just as the referee was announcing young Iman as the winner, his father slumped back in his seat and expired almost instantly. He had been a sufferer for some time from heart disease, and his physician had warned him to avoid excitement. The remains were taken to Santa Ana, where the funeral was held. He was 55 years of age and leaves a wife, one son and three daughters. Iman came to Anaheim about nine years ago, and was on the police force for two years. He was one of the scores of men who took part for the hunt for Ira Jones, bandit, who killed Under Sheriff Robert Squires and Albert Prather, December 16, 1912, and who wounded William Culver, J. F. Stacy and others in the posse during a fight at Tomato Springs. Some of For the purpose of canvassing the vote cast in the bond election of July 19, the city trustees met in special session Monday night and verified the figures turned in by the two election-boards. It was found that the four propositions ran pretty even, the greatest opposition being to the city hall, 501 votes being cast for it and 61 against. The least opposition was recorded against the pump which the fire boys have been demanding as an adjunct to their fire fighting apparatus. The vote in favor of the pump was 538 and against it 32. For the water works extension the total vote was 542 and against it 35. For sewer extension 630 votes were cast for it and 41 against it. Already a firm of bond buyers has made a bid for the issue, offering a premium of $700, but the offer was laid on the table. Four times this amount will probably be paid when the bonds are ready and offered for sale to competitive bidders. A board of commissioners has finally been appointed to appraise property values for the purpose of assessment in the Chestnut street widening proposition. The commissioners are Charles Eygabroad, George Ross and F. C. Rimpau. Each commissioner was required to give bond in the sum of $5000, and each will draw $5 per day as compensation. There appears to be some opposition to the project. H. E. Scott has filed a protest, and the trustees will hear him and consider his protest on August 11. Tenents in the old city hall and the adjacent building, which stands on the city hall site, will be given notice to vacate by the first of September, as it is desired to begin the work of razing the building on that date. The Southern Counties Gas Co. turned in a check for $1059.80, being ten per cent of their sales during the past year. City Manager O. E. Steward will turn over the reins of government to the other officials for the next month. He was given a leave of absence from duty for four weeks.

M. Backs said Tuesday that approximately 3000 aliens have registered in Orange county in compliance with the new alien poll tax law, which specifies that each alien shall pay a tax of $10. Sunday, July 31, is the last day on which aliens may register, according to the statute. And it will be difficult for many to register Sunday, as most of the county deputies propose to finish their work Saturday, inasmuch as Sunday is a legal holiday. Aliens who have not registered by the end of this week will be subject to arrest and imprisonment. The registration in Orange county has been heavy. Every deputy registrar has called for more books and registration papers. They are instructed to turn in their books to County Clerk Backs within three days after registration closes. County Collector of Taxes J. C. Lamb is scheduled to begin the collection of the poll tax next Monday. A test case to decide the constitutionality of the poll tax has been arranged in Oakland between George Gross, clerk of Alameda county, and Albert H. Elliot, attorney for the Oakland Japanese association. The law will be attacked on the claim that it is in violation of the fourteenth amendment to the United States constitution, which provides that no state shall discriminate in its treatment of residents, and also that it violates treaty rights.
