BATTLING OUR FLAG OFF THE HIGH SEAS Samuel Gompers, president of the American Federation of Labor, in season and out of season for the past thirty years a Democratic politician, is traveling about the country urging labor conventions to adopt resolutions opposing the enactment of legislation to encourage American shipping. Mr. Gompers was active in promoting legislation imposing upon American shipping labor conditions which, in conjunction with the higher wage scale prevalent in this country, increases the cost of operation of an American vessel so greatly beyond the cost of operating an European or Asiatic vessel, that competition on the high seas is impossible without some form of special aid. Not only does American shipping labor under this handicap, but foreign shipping, especially British and Japanese, enjoys the advantage of governmental subsidies, subventions, favorable postal contracts and other forms of national encouragement. Laboring for higher operating costs on American vessels on the one hand, and fighting proposals to equalize competitive conditions between American and foreign shipping on the other. Mr. Gompers has a very effective system of destroying the American shipping industry. How this can favorably affect the interests of the American wage earner Mr. Gompers and his fellow Democratic leaders do not stop to explain. It may be that Mr. Gompers' birth and boyhood in London has nothing to do with his attitude on American questions. The fact remains that he always takes the European side of American political and economic issues. He has always fought the protective policy. He was a partisan of ful issue when a delegation of prominent citizens called on the editor at his office, offering humble apologies and implored him to go back to his old way of running his paper. Here are a few items picked at random from that one issue: "John Coyle, our groceryman, who voted with the Republicans in 1896 and consumes more mail order whiskey than any other member of the church in this county, complains that business is poor. His store is dusty and dirty and his prices are high. It is a wonder he has any business at all." "David Charier died at his home two miles north of this place last night. Doc Holderness, who is an old friend of the family, attended him a few minutes before he died. He gave it out that David died of heart failure. That is a lie. David died from drinking too much rotten moonshine. This paper prints the truth." "Tom Spaldin married Miss Cordie Meader last trades 'day at the county seat. It isn't generally known, but the truth is that marriage was brought about mainly by a Remington shotgun manipulated by the brides' father. Tom concluded that marrying was the healthiest thing he could do." "While returning from the county seat last week Bill Jones run his fliver into a fence post. He was thrown out, breaking one leg in two places. Bill claims his brakes wouldn't work, but everybody who knows Bill knows that he was full of moonshine and couldn't see the fence." "Married—Miss Susie Scruggs and Horace Guffin, last Saturday at the parsonage. Rev. James G. Williams officiating. The bride is a very ordinary girl, who flirts with all the traveling men and never helps her mother with the housework. She is anything but pretty and walks like a mission, in fixing take into account the company has few years in expansion intender rates, as well as severance damage received last year.

It may be that Mr. Gompers' birth and boyhood in London has nothing to do with his attitude on American questions. The fact remains that he always takes the European side of American political and economic issues. He has always fought the protective policy. He was a partisan of the plan of American involvement in European politics as proposed in the league of nations covenant and he battles bitterly against any plan that would make the United States a real contender for the title, long claimed by his native England, of "mistress of the seas." No greater ham has ever come to the cause of organized labor than the effort persistently made by Mr. Gompers and his fellow Democrats in charge of the Washington headquarters of the American Federation of Labor, to make unionism a more tail to the Democratic kite. Regularly every four years Mr. Gompers "delivers" organized labor to the Democratic party, and regularly the rank and file of organized labor refuses to be delivered." Between campaigns Mr. Gompers busies himself trying to manufacture Democratic campaign thunder, just as he is doing now in going about over the country agitating against effective American competition to British and other alien shipping interests. As the result of this effort it will probably came about that within a few years the huge American merchant marine we built up at enormous cost under the stress of war, sacrificing hundreds of millions unnecessarily because of the successful fights Mr. Gompers and others have put up in years gone by against the peace time construction of merchant shipping, will rotting in our harbors and the American flag will have as completely disappeared from the high seas as it had during the period before the world war. This may bring joy in British shipping offices, activity in British shipyards and employment for British sailors, but why should any patriotic American get satisfaction out of such a consumption?

The bride is a very ordinary girl, who flirts with all the traveling men and never helps her mother with their housework. She is anything but pretty and walks like a duck. The groom is a natural born loafer. His principle occupation has been playing pool and smoking cigarettes. For a short time he was assistant chamber maid at the City Livery. He now resides at the home of his wife's father and says that he has no definite plans for the future. Susie will have a hard row to hoe." SEEKING REDUCTION OF EDISON RATES Southern Cities File Briefs With the Railroad Commission A 20 per cent reduction in electric rates charged southern California cities by the Southern California Edison company, is strongly urged in the final briefs in the big Edison rate case that were filed Monday with the state railroad commission. The brief filed by Senator W. J. Carr attorney for the southern California cities and a committee of the City Attorneys' association asks for a reduction of the Edison rates amounting to about $3,500,000 a year. A similar reduction is also urged by the state farm bureau federation, represented by Judge Frank S. Brittain. The Edison company throughout the hearings that have preceded the filing of the final brief, strongly opposed any reduction in its rates. The various southern California cities who are demanding a reduction in their electric rates from the Southern California Edison company are Los Angeles, Alhambra, Arcadia, Chino, Colton, El Monte, Fillmore, Fullerton, La Verne, Lindsay, Monrovia, Long Beach, Newport Beach, Pasadena, Pomona, Porterville, Riverside, San Buena Ventura, Santa Monica, South Pasadena and Sierra Madre. Wide spread interest has been aroused throughout southern California in this rate hearing because of the many important issues involved, and also because of the fact that these proceedings represent the first big rate case to be determined by the feature however, will prise of the detail in the new dential section.

Illustrating tragic situation AN EDITOR TELLS THE TRUTH It is the proud boast of most news papers that they farlessly tell the truth, hit who they may. For all practical purposes, and considered in its broadest application, the statement is true. But when it comes to more personal affairs of life not one paper in a hundred sells the truth. If they did they wouldn't last a month. Some time ago a Texas paper got peeved because some of his readers accused him of being an editorial liar and it made him so mad that one week his paper came out with the following announcement in black face type: "A lot of people in this town fall out with the editor and brand him as a liar when the ordinary human mistakes of life show up in a newspaper. You have a little charity and fellow feeling for every man in town but your editor. You claim you want the facts, and d—d if I don't give em to you. Read the next issue of this paper and see some facts with the bark off. I'll admit that I have been a liar ever since I have been editing this sheet, but I have never printed a lie in these columns except to save somebody's feeling from being hurt. I am not afraid of any of you. I have bought a new long barrel 38 and I'll be dad blamed if I don't print the plain truth from now on or until you get out of the habit of calling me a liar every time I make a dinky little mistake. Watch my smoke. The brother got out just one truth- Wide spread interest has been aroused throughout southern California in this rate hearing because of the many important issues involved, and also because of the fact that these proceedings represent the first big rate case to be determined by the new railroad commission. It is expected that a decision will be handed down on the case before May 1. The rate case before the railroad commission is a sequel to the emergency case of a year ago in which the commission ordered a cut in the Edison company's rates of about $1,600,000. Throughout the various hearings the rate case has been bitterly contested. Fourteen days have been spent in actual hearings, which started last fall and have been continued through the first part of this year. Commissioners Seavey, Brundige and Shore have conducted the hearings since the first of the year. The Edison company's basis and depreciation annuities had been attacked as excessive by the cities and farm bureau federation. The cities put in full estimates; according to Senator Carr, of revenue and operating expenses, claiming the company's revenue estimates for 1923 were too low, and its estimates for operating expenses, too high. The company's allowance for fuel oil at the present basis of $1.50 per barrel is questioned by the cities, and it is urged that in view of the low market price of oil, $1.00 per barrel is adequate. Many of the company's expenditures charged against the consumers have been attacked as improper charges. The cities are also urging the com- mission, in fixing the new rates, to take into account nearly $2,000,000 the company has earned in the last few years in excess of what the commission intended in fixing the present rates, as well as some $2,000,000 of severance damage the company received last year from the city of Los Angeles, and which the company's auditor claims is non-operative profit. Senator Carr in his brief for the cities, also declares that the present rate of return of 8.3 per cent allowed the company is unreasonable. OLIVE PEOPLE STAGING BIG CELEBRATION Our Neighbors on Eastside Preparing to Entertain Visitors With the date for the free celebration to be staged at Olive fixed for Friday, May 11, when the home-site beauties of the canyon gateway city will be heralded throughout the country, detailed plans for the event are taking form following a meeting of the directors of the Olive Improvement association at Olive. The celebration, which will be staged by the Olive organization under the auspices of the Orange Community Chamber of Commerce, is expected to be one of the biggest affairs of similar nature ever held in the gateway city. Working hand in hand with the Olive officials, Secretary V. D. Johnson of the chamber of commerce, attended the meeting, assisting in arranging preliminary details of the affair. According to tentative plans, the celebration will officially open at 3 o'clock in the afternoon, lasting until late in the night, when a dance will culminate the day's festivities. A big outdoor barbecue, starting at for the welfare of the United States would like to know. Obviously the reasons for departing from our traditional program of isolation from foreign political entanglements must be clear and specific. The burden of proof is on those who urge a departure from national traditions. HIGHWAY RE-SIGNING WILL SOON START Motorists who travel through southern California will find a flock of brand new signs on many roads in the near future, according to a notice just issued by the Auto Club of Southern California. Plans are now under way to re-sign the route leading from the southern part of the state to Carson City, Nevada, by way of the Owen valley road. This important route will not only be marked with direction signs, but the club will indicate the names of all tributary roads leading into it and creeks which cross it will be named correctly on the signs. The coast route from Mexico to Monterey county line in the north has just been completely re-signed and is in such condition that eastern visitors in California can find their way along its entire length with no difficulty. The inland route is completely resigned now from Los Angeles to San Diego. Word has just been received from the sign posting department of the auto club that the coast highway in Mexico from Tia Juana to Ensonada, a distance of ninety miles, is in passable condition if there has been no rain. The sign posting crew has finished placing the brand new signs in this "foreign" territory. Although the Mexican road is not difficult to follow, the club believes that on account of the large number of sportsmen traveling in lower California from the WORKING HAND IN HAND WITH THE OLIVE OFFICIALS. SECRETARY V. D. JOHNSON OF THE CHAMBER OF COMmerce, ATTENDED THE MEETING, ASSISTING IN ARRANGING PRELIMINARY DETAILS OF THE AFFAIR. ACCORDING TO TENTATIVE PLANS, THE CELEBRATION WILL OFFICIALLY OPEN AT 3 O'CLOCK IN THE Afternoon, LASTING UNTIL LATE IN THE NIGHT, WHEN A DANCE WILL CULMINATE THE DAY'S FESTIVITIES. A BIG OUTDOOR BARBECUE, STARTING AT 6:30 O'CLOCK, BAND CONCERT, SPEAKING, DANCING AND AN INSPECTION TOUCH OF THE VARIOUS Olive Industrial Plants ARE AMONG THE ITEMS INCLUDED IN THE TENTATIVE ENTERTAINMENT PROGRAM NOW UNDER PREPARATION. IN ADDITION TO THE BAND MUSIC, WHICH WILL PROBABLY BE PURVEYED DURING THE AFTERNOON AND EARLY EVENING, ARRANGEMENTS ARE GOING FORWARD FOR A RADIO CONCERT PRECEeding THE DANCE LATE IN THE EVENING. THE FEATURE SPOT ON THE PROGRAM, HOWEVER, WILL BE OCCUPied BY THE SURPRISE OF THE DAY—THE AWARDING OF A LOT IN THE NEWLY DEVELOPED Olive Residential Section. REGISTERS WILL BE PROVIDED WHERE EVERY PERSON WHO ATTENDS THE AFFAIR WILL JOT DOWN THEIR NAMES ENTITLING THEM TO A TICKET. AT AN APPPOINTED HOUR IN THE EVENING THE HOLDER OF THE LUCKY PASTEBOARD WILL BE GIVEN A LOT, REGULAR SIZE, ABSOLUTELY FREE. THE SPEAKER FOR THE Celebration Has NOT AS YET BEEN SElected, BUT IT IS UNDERSTOOD THAT SOME PROMinent SOUTH-land ORATOR WILL BE ENGAGED TO DELIVER A BRIEF DISCOURSE. A COMMITTEE COMPOSED ENTIRELY OF Olive Boosters, HAS BEEN APPPOINTED TO WORK OUT DETAILS OF THE AFFAIR IN CONJUNCTION WITH SECRETARY JOHNSON AND THE ORANGE CHAMBER OF COMMERCE. A DECIDED DIFFERENCE IN PUBLIC OPINION ONE OF THE Tragic RESULTS OF THE WORLD WAR, SO FAR AS THE UNITY OF AMERICA IS REFERRED, IS THE WIDE DIVERGENCE OF PUBLIC OPINION AS TO JUST WHAT AMERICA'S RESPONSIBILITY IN THE PREMISES IS. THIS DIVERGENCE OF VIEWS APPEARS TO BE GROWING MORE ACUTE AS THE SITUATION IN EUROPE Becomes MORE GRACE. The Only Ray Of Light And Sign Of Hope Is That These Differences Of Opinion And Frequent Discussions, Ultimately, Will Reveal What Really Is The Duty And Responsibility Of The United States. Illustrating This Unfortunate, If Not Tragic Situation, Two Incidents took Place. WORD HAS JUST BEEN RECEIVED FROM THE SIGN POSTING DEPARTMENT OF THE AUTO CLUB THAT THE COAST HIGHWAY IN MEXICO FROM TIA JUANA TO ENSENADA, A DISTANCE OF NINETY MILES, IS IN PASSABLE CONDITION IF THERE HAS BEEN NO RAIN. The Sign Posting Crew Has Just Finished Placing The Brand New Signs In This "Foreign" Territory. Although The Mexican Road Is Not Difficult To Follow, The Club Believes That On Account Of The Large Number Of Sportsmen Traveling In Lower California From The United States, It Is Very Important To Have Dangerous Curves And Short De-tours Marked With Official Signs. CREWS HAVE JUST COMPLETED SURVEYING RIVERSIDE, ORANGE AND SAN BERNARDINO COUNTIES FOR NEW ROAD SIGNS AND MAPS. Every Road In These Counties Which Is Passable To Motorists Will Be Marked. At The Present Time An Extensive Survey Of San Diego And Imperial counties Is Being Made For New Maps And New Road Signs Which Will Completely Cover This District. PETTY VIOLATIONS Petty Violations Of Common Sense Road Rules Are Making Auto Travel Hazardous In Pacific Coast Territory, According To Notices Issued By The Automobile Club Of Southern California. Does Your Tail Light Burn So That People Can See It, Or Does It Just Glow About Like A Glow Worm? It Is Sometimes Necessary To More Than Just Comply With The Law, Says The Acto Club. A Little Common Sense Used In Motoring Can Often Avert Many Serious Accidents. Glaring Headlights constitute One Of The Most Serious Factors And Possible Causes Of Accidents, With Which California Has To Contend. According To Motorcycle Officers, The Proper Adjustment Of Head lights Would Mean A Reduction Of Fifty Per Cent In The Number Of Night Accidents. During The 1922 More Than $22,000 Was Assessed By Los Angeles Courts For Fines For Faulty Headlights. Auto Club Officials State that If Auto Owners Would Use A Little Consideration In Regulating Their Tail Light So That It Will Show Clearly, And Adjust Headlights In Conformity To The Law, At Least, The Reduction Of Accidents In The Southern Part Of The State Would Be Remarkable. It Is A Good Plan To Examine Your Lights Frequently And See If They Are Burning Correctly. In Massachusetts Strenuous Measures Are Being Taken To Force Motorists To Die. NOTICE OF SALE OF "SEWER CONSTRUCTION BONDS" OF THE CITY OF ANAHEIM NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that the Board of Trustees of the City of Anaheim, California, will receive sealed bids or proposals up to eight o'clock P.M., of Thursday, the 3rd day of May, 1923, to purchase bonds of the City of Anaheim, ordered issued under and by virtue of the provisions of a certain resolution of the Board of Trustees of the City of Anaheim, entitled "A resolution providing for the issuance and redemption of bonds of the City of Anaheim in the sum of One Hundred Sixty Thousand (160,000.00) Dollars for the purpose of the acquisition, construction and completion by the City of Anaheim on a certain municipal improvement to work: An outfall sewer, together with all necessary rights of way upon which it constructs and the construction of an outfall sewer pipe line, including the acquisition of all necessary pipes and the payment of the cost and expense of installing said sewer pipe line, in accordance with and as authorized by a special election held in said City on the 1st day of April, 1923," passed and adopted by the Board of Trustees of said city on the 15th day of March, 1923.

Anaheim ence of public opinion as to just what America's responsibility in the premises is. This divergence of views appears to be growing more acute as the situation in Europe becomes more grave. The only ray of light and sign of hope is that these differences or opinion and frequent discussions, ultimately, will reveal what really is the duty and responsibility of the United States. Illustrating this unfortunate, if not tragic situation, two incidents took place on the same day recently. The students and faculty of Union theological seminary, met in mass meeting and adopted the following resolution: "We deplore the seizure of the Ruhr, believing that, whatever may be the technical legality of it, under the treaty of Versailles, the French policy is morally unjustifiable as well as politically unsound, and can result only in increasing the international tension regarding the achievement of a lasting peace in Europe. The moral duty of the United States is to share fully Europe's problems." On the other hand, the students and graduates of Yale university have been taking a referendum vote on the European situation and America's responsibility therein. By a vote of more than three to one, the graduates and students believe that France is justified in sending troops to the Ruhr, and that the movement will hasten the collection of the reparation debt. The same vote approves of the United States policy of isolation from European affairs, and opposes any intervention of the United States in the Ruhr or other controversy. It will be seen that these two views, representing the opinions of two groups of intelligent Americans, are utterly at variance. Which view is correct? What is America's duty? Leaders responsible Auto club officials state that if auto owners would use a little consideration in regulating their tail light so that it will show clearly, and adjust head lights in conformity to the law, at least, the reduction of accidents in the southern part of the state would be remarkable. It is a good plan to examine your lights frequently and see if they are burning correctly. In Massachusetts strenuous measures are being taken to force motorists to properly illuminate their license their tail lights burning brightly. It is probable that some similar action will be taken in the west. Don't just be a "law abiding" motorist—be a thoughtful and considerate driver as well, and go a step further in making the roads safe by your consideration for other autoists, says the club. OUR PRIDE The splendid United States steamship service to South America has been the pride of all citizens of this country, and a boon to every exporter doing business with Latin America. The passage of the ship aid bill assures the continuance and further improvement of that service, with all the attendant advantages of closer relations with our neighbors to the south. The defeat of that bill may mean the dislocation of those routes. The government will certainly separate itself from the business of operating merchant ships in competition with private owners. If its vessels cannot be disposed of according to the advantageous terms in the pending measure, then they will be sold under some other plan, and the effect on our South American and other trade routes can be awaited only with fear and foreboding. Said bonds are negotiable in form and are designated as follows: "Sewer Construction Bonds." Said lower-construction bonds are one hundred and sixty in number, and are all denominations of One Thousand Dollars each, and are numbered consecutively from one hundred sixty both inclusively. All of said bonds shall be dated April 18, 1923. Said one hundred and sixty bonds shall be paid in the order of their numbers consecutively, in the following manner: Four of said bonds shall be paid on the 15th day of April, 1924, and four upon the 15th day of April of each and every year thereafter, together with interest on all sums unpaid at such date until the principal and interest on all of said one hundred sixty bonds and the money thereby represented shall have been paid. The same being and constituting an annual payment of the sum of Four Thousand (40,000.00) Dollars on the principal bond, which said sum is no less than one-fortish part of said indebtedness.

Said bonds are issued under and pursuant to the authority of an Act of legislature of the State of California entitled "An Act authorizing the incurring of indebtedness by cities; towns; and municipal corporations for municipal improvements, and regulating the acquisition, construction or completion thereof," which became a law February 26, 1901, and all acts supplementary thereto and amendatory thereof, and in accordance with the constitution and other laws of the said state.
