MARSHALL VS. MARSHALL
This paper has been asked why, since it favors the Marshall act, providing for a comprehensive plan of storing and distributing the waters of California, and since Col. Marshall is now in favor of the Water and Power Act as a movement in behalf of the Marshall act, it does not join with the author of the Marshall plan and likewise favor the Water and Power act. It is a fair question, and we will let Col. Marshall answer it himself. says the Bakersfield Californian.
The water and power act that the people are to vote on in 1924 is the same measure which the people of California rejected by 354,000 majority in 1922. Col. Marshall was one of the strongest opponents of the measure then, and the arguments he presented against it are as irrefutable today as they were at that time. He must do something more than simply change his mind to cause the sincere opponents of the water and power act to change theirs.
Let us see what some of his expressions were in 1922 that appealed so powerfully to him as an opponent of the water and power act, and which could not fail to make their impression upon thinking people the state over. As against his declarations today that the water and power act, which will call for the issuance of five hundred million dollars in bonds, is in line with the Marshall plan heretofore submitted by him, we quote from a speech delivered by him in Visalia in 1922: 'As a matter of fact,' he said, "the water and power act is exactly the reverse from the Marshall plan. Nothing could be further from the truth than an insinuation which is being made to the effect that this five hundred million dollar bond issue proposal is a proposition to make possible the confronts the people of California, that of the conservation and distribution of water.
Every man has the right to change his opinion, but when a great educative campaign is carried on by a single individual, as the result of long and comprehensive study of a given problem, he may not lightly reverse himself and expect to retain that confidence in his leadership that he once enjoyed, nor find a following to accept as true the very things he once denied with such emphasis.
The water and power act was defeated in every county in California in 1922 and one of the factors responsible for that defeat was Colonel Marshall. In his every speech, in his every written statement he denounced the measure as one wholly impractical, as one threatening the future of the state with ruin. He may not lightly take the opposite side, decrying his every finding two years ago, and hope to retain his leadership upon the state's most pressing question. The Californian was against the Water and Power act, along with the majority of 354,000 people of California in 1922, and the same reasons that actuated it then impel it to continue its active opposition, now that identically the same plan has been resubmitted to the people of California.
THE LABOR VOTE
Of the many false claims and exaggerated statements made by Senator La Follette and his managers in connection with his attempt to throw the Presidential election into the House of Representatives, one of the most preposterous is the assertion that La Follette has "the solid backing of labor."

Nothing could be further from the truth than an insinuation which is being made to the effect that this five hundred million dollar bond issue proposal is a proposition to make possible the development of the Marshall plan.
Most of us are prepared and ready to follow intelligent leadership for the development of the state of California, but we are not prepared to follow leadership, which, after a careful consideration of a great problem makes a definite and emphatic finding such as the one quoted and then only two years later so far reverses himself as to say that the two propositions, instead of being antagonistic are in line with each other.
Sane and conservative people with the best interests of California at heart, are loath to place in the hands of a political board the responsibility that will attach to the expenditure of so huge a sum as five hundred million dollars nor are they willing to believe that such a political board is likely to be the sort of organization that can be entrusted with evolving a practical plan for the purposes named in the water and power act, or for the successful conduct of an intricate business, once a plan has been accepted. Col Marshall professes now to believe that it is wholly safe to place such authority and responsibility in a board so appointed, but as against the belief he expresses today, we quote again from his Visalia speech in 1922 when he was violently opposing the adoption of the same act that he is now sponsoring. He said in that speech relative to this vital provision of authority and responsibility: "True, the law provides the recall, but for heaven's sake, men, such a body could in five minutes do more damage than could be cured in a century. It is not the recall you want; it is something to prevent any such catastrophe. It would be useless to lock the door after the borse is gone; useless to use the recall after the damage has been done.
Those who have given the water and power act careful consideration are as vigorously opposing its adoption by the people as they were in 1922. They believe that the saddling
THE LABOR VOTE
Of the many false claims and exaggerated statements made by Senator La Follette and his managers in connection with his attempt to throw the Presidential election into the House of Representatives, one of the most preposterous is the assertion that La Follette has "the solid backing of labor."
No accurate estimate, of course, can be made as to what proportion of the total vote for President in November will be represented by a so-called labor vote, but developments through out the nation plainly indicate that labor, both organized and unorganized, is to say the least, as divided on the Presidential contest as any other group of citizens.
The La Follette radicals, who make great fuss over the fact that a majority of one of the United States Supreme Court can commit that body to a formal decision and who are now crying for sympathy because the California Supreme Court, by a majority of one, refused to permit La Follette to override the election laws of this state, have carefully avoided mention of the fact that the action of the executive committee of the American Federation of Labor indorsing La Follette's candidacy was determined by one vote.
In this instance the deciding vote was cast by Samuel Gompers when the ten members of the federation executive committee were divided, five to five, on the question.
The five opposed to committing organized labor to the La Follette movement were: Green of the miners, Rickert of the garment workers, Valentine of the iron moulders, Duffy of the Carpenters and joiners, and Duncan of the granite workers. Those favoring La Follette's third party were: Morrison of the typographical workers, Woll of the photo engravers, Ryan of the railroad carmen, Fisher of the Larbers and Tobin of the teamsters.
Gompers was the "one man" to decide in that instance, but it does not logically follow that in casting his own vote for La Follette and thus committing the executive committee to the action it took he likewise cast the votes of the millions of workers whom the ten executive committeemen are supposed to represent.
Every motorist, whether California or a visitor hails in the lost and found department inaugurated by the Auto of Southern California. than half a million cars use on 15,000 miles of high natural that a large articles will be lost. To minimum those unrecover club has established a local department under the dirthur C. Davis, which will be big job of restoring articles to their rightful owner.
Possibilities for cover part of the state and hirn in the department are realtie fact that the auto club in 29 cities in Southern where found articles may in and held for a time maintain and it has a fleet patrol service cars constrain and fro over the highways. The drivers always on the alert and articles of wearing apparel and similar things passing cars.

An astonishing collection is constantly on hand quaters. These have up by members, employ patrol drivers, tow cars posting truck men and they consist of brooches ercoats, gloves, glasses handkerchiefs, rings, rods and in fact there are statistically every article tourists parties. It is be partment will not only service to members, but of the motorists in tha may experience this mising something while trai
in five minutes do more damage than could be cured in a century. It is not the recall you want; it is something to prevent any such catastrophe. It would be useless to lock the door after the horse is gone; useless to use the recall after the damage has been done.
Those who have given the water and power act careful consideration are as vigorously opposing its adoption by the people as they were in 1922. They believe that the saddling of the state with a huge bonded indebtedness of five hundred million dollars would be but the beginning of a program of expenditure that would eventually wreck the state. They believed that in 1922, and they believe it in 1924.
Though Col. Marshall now says that the water and power act provides a practical method of financing the development, against that finding, let us quote from one of his speeches in 1922 covering this same point: "Under the water and power act," he said "if you vote it, you will have bonded the state for $500,000,000 and given a commission of five men power to issue bonds to an unlimited amount, and mind you, billions would be required without having any single comprehensive plan outlined, without knowing who is to spend your money, how it is to be spent, where it is to be spent, or anything about it. There is no co-ordinated plan outlined. The commission of five men appointed by an unknown Governor, and without any qualifications necessary whatever, would have absolute control of all of the resources of this great state.
We take it that was not a haphazard conclusion of Col. Marshall. He was defending the Marshall plan, and opposing with all his might the adoption of the Water and Power act. It was his final conclusion, after mature consideration of all the issues involved in the greatest problem that
Gompers was the "one man" to decide in that instance, but it does not logically follow that in casting his own vote for La Follette and thus committing the executive committee to the action it took he likewise cast the votes of the millions of workers whom the ten executive committeemen are supposed to represent.
In fact the contrary seems to be the case.
Richard J. Powers of Chicago, first president of the American Federation of Labor and the predecessor of Gompers, is vigorously advocating the election of Coolidge. Powers says that "labor leaders who attempt to sell politicians the idea that they are able to deliver or influence to any extent the vote of organized labor are merely kidding themselves."
W. G. Lee, president of the Brothel of Railroad Trainmen, active Coolidge supporter, has led his organization in refusing a La Follette endorsement. Charles J. Mamoney and C. H Kelley, influential officials of the trainmen's organization, have not only repudiated La Follette, but have taken the stump for Coolidge. John L. Lewis, vice president of the Federation of Labor, has indorsed Coolidge and accepted a place on the Republican National Advisory Committee. President Hutcheson, representing 315,000 organized carpenters, has indorsed the Republican ticket. T. V. O'Connor, former president of the organized longshoremen and the present officers of the organization, have come out for Coolidge.
Commenting on the La Follette attempt to pose as the chief friend of labor and the sole beneficiary of labor, McMenimen recently said in San Francisco.
No nominee for President by the two great parties at any time ever
had the fine labor record possessed by Calvin Coolidge. The claim that Senator La Follette has ever been a better friend to labor than the President is utter nonsense. The impression sought to be given out here in California that union labor is a solid alanx behind the Wisconsin man is entirely erroneous."
Possibly the five million men and women who are desperately seeking work when the Republican administration began to function and who are gainfully employed may have something to contribute to the "labor vote". Also it is a logical supposition that the thoughtful citizen may discover other reasons that are given here for doubting that any individual or committee of individuals can deliver the labor vote.
One of the most cogent reasons is found in the fact that never in the history of this nation or of the world has the wage earner received higher compensation for his labor or enjoyed a higher standard of living. This condition has been created during the last three and a half years by the Republican administration and represents a condition exactly the opposite of that which existed in this country when the Democrats surrendered the affairs of government.
LOST AND FOUND
Every motorist, whether resident of California or a visitor has an interest in the lost and found department just inaugurated by the Automobile Club of Southern California. With more than half a million cars constantly in use on 15,000 miles of highway it is but natural that a large number of articles will be lost. To reduce to a minimum those unrecovered, the auto club has established a lost and found department under the direction of Ar-
Such a situation, it is said, would be an aid to the Republican campaign. Of course the radical leaders of the Third Party movement could see the significance of the outcome of the corn crop. With farmers prosperous there would be a tendency for them to vote for the party in power. With adverse conditions, they would be inclined to vote for a change. It was that situation that brought about the frame of mind which was described by the assertion that the Third aPrty managers "were praying for frost.

Under and by virtue of a decree of foreclosure and order of sale duly made and entered in the Superior Court, of the County of Orange, State of California, on the 5th day of August, A.

D., 1924, in the above entitled action, in favor of W. S. Pomeroy and Jennie Pomeroy, Plaintiffs, and against Louis Perry Dunlap, et al., defendants a copy of which said decree of foreclosure duly attested under the seal of the said Superior Court on the 2nd day of September, A. D., 1924, and to me delivered on the 3rd day of September, 1924, together with said writ annexed thereo. whereby I am commanded to sell at public auction for cash in lawful money of the United States, following and in said decree, described real estate:

Every motorist, whether resident of California or a visitor has an interest in the lost and found department just inaugurated by the Automobile Club of Southern California. With more than half a million cars constantly in use on 15,000 miles of highway it is but natural that a large number of articles will be lost. To reduce to a minimum those unrecovered, the auto club has established a lost and found department under the direction of Arthur C. Davis, which will undertake the big job of restoring all found articles to their rightful owners.
Possibilities for covering all this part of the state and high efficiency in the department are realized through the fact that the auto club has branch in 29 cities in Southern California, where found articles may be turned in and held for a time awaiting claimant and it has a fleet of highway patrol service cars constantly passing to and fro over the main traveled highways. The drivers of these are always on the alert and turn in the articles of wearing apparel, equipment and similar things dropped by passing cars.
The lost and found service plans to hold these articles for identification at the branch office nearest where they are picked up. Should claimants not appear within a reasonable time, the lost articles are sent to the club headquarters in Los Angeles where they are tagged and labeled and held indefinitely.
An astonishing collection of articles is constantly on hand at club headquarters. These have been picked up by members, employees, highway patrol drivers, tow car drivers, signposting truck men and others and they consist of brooches, bar pins, overcoats, gloves, glasses, tire gauges, handkerchiefs, rings, rosaries, shawls, and in fact there are samples of practically every article carried by motorists parties. It is believed this department will not only be of real service to members, but to everyone of the motorists in this section who may experience this misfortune of losing something while traveling.
DOGS AND CATS
Deliberately malming and killing of dogs and cats is charged to motorists in complaints reaching the Automobile Club of Southern California from humane societies. It is stated that some Dunlap, et al., defendants a copy of which said decree of foreclosure duly attested under the seal of the said Superior Court on the 2nd day of September, A. D., 1924, and to me delivered on the 3rd day of September, 1924, together with said writ annexed thereto, whereby I am commanded to sell at public auction for cash in lawful money of the United States, the following and in said decree, described real estate:
Situated in the City of Anaheim, County of Orange, State of California, and more particularly described as follows. to-wit: Lot Nine (9) of the "Sunrise Tract" as shown on a map recorded in Book 3, Page 38 of Miscellaneous Mans,' Records of Orange County, California, subject to an agreement that no house shall be erected thereon which shall cost less than $1000. Note. The above described lot is subject to the rights and easements of the Anaheim Union Water Company, and its successors, described in a deed from the Los Angeles Vineyard Society to said County, recorded in Book 4, page 624 et seq. of deeds, records of Los Angeles County, California. Together with all and singular the tenements, hereditaments and appurtenances thereunto belonging or in any wise appurtaining.
Public notice is hereby given that on Thursday, the 2nd day of October, A. D., 1924 at 10:30 o'clock A. M. of sald day, I will sell at the south door of the Court House, in the City of Santa Ana at public auction, to the highest bidder for cash. In Lawful Money of the United States, all the above described real estate, or so much thereof as will be sufficient to satisfy said decree for principal, interest and all costs.

DOGS AND CATS
Deliberately maiming and killing of dogs and cats is charged to motorists in complaints reaching the Automobile Club of Southern California from humane societies. It is stated that some motorists maliciously take the lives of animal pets, regardless of the fact that the offense is punishable under the state anti-cruelty laws. Humane societies are planning to prosecute such violators in the future.
It is urged by these societies that drivers refrain from carrying dogs on unguarded running boards of cars, as this frequently esults in serious injury to the animal. It is believed that this is done more through thoughtlessness than any other cause as usually the unprotected pets on the running board are loved much and valued highly.
This plea for protection of animal pets is being made general throughout Southern California in the hope that there will be a lessening of injuries and fatalities.
THIRD PARTY FROST DUE NOV. 4
The utter selfishness of professed political reformers is indicated by the remark recently that the managers of the Third Party campaign were "praying for frost." The corn crop of the Middle West was at such a stage of development that a frost would ruin it completely. With a short delay in the first killing frost, the crop would be saved and at present prices, the corn growers and the entire section in which corn is the chief crop would be assured of a highly prosperous year.
