Yungbluth Home of Hart Schaffner & Marx Clothes KEEP MONEY MOVING That Californians are going in for luxuries to a larger extent than the people of other states is indicated in an article in Southern California Business, the official magazine of the Los Angeles Chamber of Commerce, which shows that this state spent $2.75 per capita for perfumes, cosmetics and proprietary articles last year, as against an average of $1.70 for the entire United States. Also per capita expenditure in this state for soft drinks was $3.26 while the average for the nation was $2.61. Where people are spending above the average for luxuries it is a certainty that they are spending more than their quota for necessities. In other words, there seems to be a greater abundance of money in California than in the average state and indications are that it is being kept in lively circulation.

The natives of California are the most stay-at-home people in the United States. "During a period of 40 years, five censuses, California has had more stay-at-homes than any other state. The figures show the per cent of all persons born in California, and the other states shown, who are living in some other state in the Union. "In 1890 Florida had the lowest per cent with 7.5 per cent. In 1900 Florida and California were just equal with 9.6 per cent. In 1920 California was considerably lower with 10 per cent compared to Florida's 14.1 per cent. And Florida is the next lowest at that. "The average for the whole United States is more than double the figure for California at all five of the census periods. The average for all states has increased 1.3 per cent in 20 years while the figure for California has changed only 4 per cent in the same period, and remained constant from 1910 to 1920. "The native sons and daughters of California stay at home. That means that they must like it there. And more than that, find that their own door yard contains 'acres of diamonds.'"

CALIFORNIANS STAY AT HOME California natives are the greatest lot of stay-at-homes on earth, according to Dr. Percy L. Clark in an article in the current issue of Southern California Business, the official magazine of the Los Angeles Chamber of Commerce. Dr. Clark has gone to the pains of figuring out the percentage of native-born residents of various states who seek homes outside of their own commonwealth. This statistician has figured out that less than 10 per cent of the people reared in California ever leave the state to make their home elsewhere. After showing that people leave home in search of opportunities, he says: "If people leave home in search of SUES FOR COMMISSION In connection with an asserted real estate deal involving Orange county property to the value of $650,000, William M. Moxam, Los Angeles real estate salesman, charged in a court action that he was defrauded of a commission amounting to one-sixth interest in the land. The transaction in question was said to have been the purchase of land along the ocean near San Juan Capistrano by Fred Leistlkow and William J. Bettington, Canadians, who were said to have paid $375,000 in cash and to have exchanged Winnipeg, Canada, property valued at $375,000. The Orange county land was purchased, it was said, from Max Goldschmid and associates. According to the complaint on file Daniel M. White, Los Angeles broker, and Moxam, a salesman for Walte, negotiated the deal. Moxam declared he worked nine months in bringing the parties together, straightening out titles, securing added water right and attending to other details. He was to receive one-sixth and Walte two-sixth of the Orange County property, he alleged, these interests to be derived by re-subdividing the lands. Since the deal was consummated, Moxam alleged, Walte and the Canadians have attempted to "freeze him out" and now repudiate the asserted commission agreement, all claiming that Moxam was not included in it. So Moxam appealed to the courts. His suit was filed through Attorneys Goudge, Robinson and Hughes, Los Angeles. After the first baby arrives a marriage is likely to be a howling success." THURSDAY A SALE OF rimmed Hats $5.95 Values up to $15.00 ALKENSTEINS GETTING THE "EVIDENCE" Senator—You will please tell all you know about this case. Witness—The Republicans have stolen eighteen billion dollars from the government during the last eighteen weeks and I can prove it. Senator—I must remind you that irrelevant remarks will not be permitted in this testimony. It is not necessary for you to say that you can prove it. Your statement is sufficient. We need no proof here. We cannot be bulldozed. Go on with your story. Witness—Well, I was in a keno game at Carson City in 1898 and I heard Bill Hicks tell One-Eyed Ike that Harding had been picked for the Republican presidential nomination in 1920. I know this is a fact because Bill Hicks died that night of delirium tremens. And One-Eyed Ike is dead, too. Senator—This Bill Hicks was a reputable, upright, patriotic citizen, was he not? Witness—Oh, yes; he was the best horse thief in Nevada. He had seventeen notches on his Derringer. He was spoken of for the board of trade. Senator—He was nothing so disreputable as these Lodges and Longworths and Peppers and Fesses was he? Answer no quickly for we must get on with this investigation. Witness—No; of course not. Senator—You are a good citizen yourself, are you not—fully experienced in crime of all sorts, having been a bandit and a bootlegger and a dive keeper? Witness—Sure; else I wouldn't be here now. Senator—You are fully convinced, are you not, that the Democratic party is the only true, honest, legitimate virtuous and trustworthy political work done is considered, then the total appears slight. The principal difficulty just now is that political parties are purely voluntary organizations in which the sense of personal obligation is almost nil. If voters accept their plain duty, there will be no occasion for complaint, either as to campaign financing or campaign direction. If they do not accept that duty, voters have no real right to complain. IF YOU WANT a good turkish Bath and Swedish massage—the place to get it is 628 N. Main Street, Santa Ana.

A REGRETTABLE TENDENCY Campaign funds are necessary, and it is necessary that they be large. The disposition to look upon considerable expenditures as, in themselves, evidences of corruption is a regrettable tendency. By their very nature, political campaigns are costly undertakings. They must be nation-wide. They involve the establishment and maintenance of headquarters, the printing and circulation of literature, the rental of halls in which candidates can come before the public to explain their policies and purposes. They involve the purchase of advertising space. Candidates and speakers must travel extensively. Railroad and hotel bills mount rapidly. Yet all these things are essential if the people are to be really informed on the issues of any campaign. Stated in whole numbers, the cost is tremendous, but when
