Realty Men Talk on Industrial Matters (Continued from Page 1) "One of the greatest needs of the canning industry is containers at lower cost in order to meet average market demands for canned goods. The proximity to practically all the materials via water routes offers many other miscellaneous opportunities for manufacturing." There need be no fear of developing too many harbors. If the San Francisco Bay region can contain several, with new ones under plan, certainly the few natural locations in Southern California should be utilized. There are, as I understand it, three major locations on the Southern California Coast—Los Angeles, San Diego and Newport Bay, where the advantages are important. Surely there is room for the three mentioned working together in cooperation. California has only started to grow. Its richness can be developed to carry a great population. There are today only eleven people to the square mile in the Pacific Coast States. Illinois has 115, the square mile; Ohio has 141, and Pennsylvania has 194. When we are increased to the same number per square mile as Illinois, California will have thirty-five millions of people. Surely there is amply room to grow. And if manufacturing we are not yet developed to the point of supplying our own needs. Nearly two billion dollars worth of manufactured products are brought each year to supply the needs of the eleven Western states and the three coastal states are the local manufacturing centers for eleven states, listed as the "Western Group," or as it is sometimes called "The Pacific Slope Group." Orange county offers all the industries on foreign market problems were received by this one division from farmers, cooperatives and dealers in farm products during the last fiscal year (ended June 30th), as compared with less than 29,000 similar requests recorded for 1921-22. Following the foodstuffs division in 1924 comes the automotive division with 103,000 inquiries, the specialties division with 98,000, and the textile division with 81,000. It will be noted that the foodstuffs division holds the record among the divisions of the bureau handling trade inquiries. This division has been highly organized under the direction of Secretary Hoover and Director Klein, and it has reached the point where, in cooperation with the commercial attaches and trade commissioners which have been sent to the various countries with which we trade, it can render highly satisfactory service. It is, of course, extremely important that this division be given every opportunity to continue and expand this specialized activity, and that no duplication of effort or division authority be countenanced. The expansion of our foreign markets is a function properly confined to the bureau of foreign and domestic commerce. So well is this recognized in Washington that the reports of our foreign service officers, diplomats and consuls, where they refer to marketing questions are promptly turned over by the Department of State to the Department of Commerce for suitable action. Consular trade reports and the investigations made by the commercial agents of the Commerce Department supply the great bulk of trade intelligence on the basis of which commercial politics are framed. These men are admirably qualified for the work and the organization has been carefully constructive. It is likely makes money. 7. "New Makes money." 8. An investment decision is often not sufficient something is. 9. "Special discounts or one of the first lous symptoms." 10. Tips about the ground floor. 11.

"SEA HAWK" Noted Screening in "Mador" The first app noted screened "The Sea Hawk" the gospel. The rewe's "Madior which Sills is famous Russian." "Truly," says movie actor less or ten years after or rough We allowed to step out. Orange county offers all the inducements for the location of factories Power, fuel oil, gas, light and water; a developing harbor with all the vantages that will go with cheap water transportation, nearby and easy reach over paved roads from all points in the county. Land that is reasonably priced; land in large areas for factor sites so situated that by utilizing the county's splendid system of permanent paved highways, it is easily accessible to practically the entire population. The comfort of the worker can be where he better provided. Ample recreation areas—both beach and mountain, parks and playgrounds and conditions which encourage the planning of gardens, the making of happy homes and contented people. This not to be overlooked. Mr. Atwood says "Not only does the operative but more days a year but he or she is possibly a more efficient worker with no extreme cold to combat." Let us consider the position of Orange County Harbor. It is 24 miles in a straight line from the heart of Los Angeles; it is 11 miles from Santa Ana, the heart of Orange county. It upper bay when developed will extend within 6 miles of Santa Anaheim. The cost of harbor development will not be a large figure. Probably no other location offers such splendid possibilities for such small investment. The opening up of the entrance to Newport Bay to a depth of 25 feet and a width of 600 feet. Improvement of a main inside channel to a depth of 50 feet and a bottom width of 150 feet. Breakwater construction. Dredging of areas for anchorage basins. A substantial wharf with adequate equipment. These improvements have been proposed by a Citizens Committee of Fifty appointed by the Board of Supervisors in a report recently submitted. From the evidence presented it would seem that there is ample room throughout Orange county for the successful operation of many varied industries and that all will be helped officers, diplomats and consuls, where they referto marketing questions are promptly turned over by the Department of State to the Department of Commerce for suitable action. Consular trade reports and the investigations made by the commercial agents of the Commerce Department supply the great bulk of trade intelligence on the basis of which commercial politics are framed. These men are admirably qualified for the work and the organization has been carefully constructed in the course of the past four years. They are fully capable of meeting our requirements and should not be hampered by other governmental agencies, to provide for which would mean additional expense to the taxpayers, unnecessary duplication, and more or less dissention respecting jurisdiction. Another notable factor in this trade inquiry work was that second only to Western Europe, inquiries respecting Latin America were most numerous, totaling 232,000 for the year, compared with less than 21,000 in 1921-22, and these inquiries continue to increase, estimating to the growing interest in our Latin American trade. Western Europe inquiries totaled 340,000 and Eastern 174,000. Both the Harding and the Coolidge administrations have frequently stressed the importance of our Latin American commerce, and the country is beginning to awaken to its importance. That is our great hold for the future. It totals about one and three-quarter billions of dollars annually at present, and should exceed $3,000,000,000 within the next decade. INVESTIGATE BEFORE YOU BUY The get-rich-quick operators always find plenty of victims anxious to part with hard-earned money. The latest large operator of that kind was a Chicago man who floated an utterly worthless oil stock and found trouble in handling all the money people forced upon him. He admits that he paid "dividends" out of money received for stock—that is, used a new customer's money to pay an old customer dividends. This was done many months after Secretary of the Treasury Melton issued his warning to the country against unsound investments. Mr. Melton has served the nation well in many respects but it may be doubted whether he has done anything that ought to be of more value than his advice on "How to Avoid Bad Investments." COMMERCE DEPARTMENT PROVES TO BE GO-GETTER An analysis of 3675 inquiries received from business firms indicates the resulting business to have amounted to 1427 per inquiry, according to the annual report of the director of the bureau of foreign and domestic commerce. This means the securing of several hundred millions in foreign trade secured for the United States as a result of answers to the inquiries handled by the bureau during the year. The director declares the number of instances in which the bureau has added American business men to have totaled nearly 1,200,000 during the year, with an average of more than 5,000 inquiries a day. This huge increase in the number of inquiries received from the various industries in this country during the year, is cited as ample demonstration of the effectiveness of the bureau, which lays particular stress on the export trade services rendered by the foodstuffs division to the various branches of agriculture that raise crops for export. Over 143,000 inquiries problems were vision from dealers in last fiscal compared our requests allowing the comes the 103,000 in vision with foodstuffs abong the dilling trade has been direction Director the point in the committee commitment to the we trade, factory service; merely immeasured given evire and exeily, and that division au-The expan- is a func- the bureau commerce. So Washington sign service units, where institutions are the Department of Consu-investiga- special agents dont supply diligence on social politics admirably the organ- construct-tribution. It is rarely the patentee who makes money. 7. "New Manufacturing methods" should always be closely checked and investigated. 8. An investment requiring a quick decision is often a fake. If there is not sufficient time to "sleep over it," something is probably wrong. 9. "Special inducements" in cash discounts or stock bonuses you to be one of the first to invest are suspicious symptoms. 10. Tips alleged to land you on "the ground floor" are rarely to be taken. Those who are "on the ground floor" will monopolize the opportunity. 11. "Playing the stock market on margin" and all other forms of speculation are decidedly not for the small investor. Beware of the 'bucket shop.' If you buy stocks outright for investment do so through a legitimate member of the exchange. 12. Stock in "mail order companies" being organized with promises based on what others have done seldom turns out well. "SEA HAWK" SILLS GETS A NEW ROLE Noted Screen Actor Has Strong Part in "Madonna of the Streets" The first appearance of Milton Sills, noted screen star, since his triumph in "The Sea Hawk", is as a minister of the gospel. The picture is Edwin Carewe's "Madonna of the Streets," in which Sills is co-featured with the famous Russian actress Nazimova. "Truly," says Sills, "the present day movie actor leads a versatile life. Eight or ten years ago an actor was classified either as a society leading man or rough Western type and never allowed to step out into a different role." The first appearance of Milton Sills, noted screen star, since his triumph in "The Sea Hawk", is as a minister of the gospel. The picture is Edwin Carewe's "Madonna of the Streets," in which Sills is co-featured with the famous Russian actress Nazimova. "Truly," says Sills, "the present day movie actor leads a versatile life. Eight or ten years ago an actor was classified either as a society leading man or rough Western type and never allowed to step out into a different role. The demand for varied entertainment has changed all this. In 'The Sea Hawk' I was an English nobleman exiled in disgrace who became the terror of the sea in the sixteenth century. I appeared as a galley slave, bronzed by the sun to the waist. In 'Madonna of the streets' I am a refined and polished mission worker catering to the present day British society. And in my next picture I am liable to appear as a hard-working American business man or even, who knows, as a cowboy of the West. "Life to a screen player is filled with interest. He is made versatile by the ever changing demands ofthe American public, and the old saying that variety is the spice of life holds true here." "Madonna of the Streets" is an adaptation of one of the popular books of the English novelist W. B. Maxwell. It was published under the title of "The Ragged Messenger." The photo-play marks the first screen appearance of Nazimova in two years. This picture will be the attraction at the California Theatre next Sunday, Monday and Tuesday. Now that dinners come mostly in cans and bottles, a man wouldn't have much need for a wife if he didn't feel he must have somebody around who would be compelled to listen to his troubles. The average man is not worried so much about making the nation safe for investors as safe for jobs.
