LOCAL BREVITIES Fifty thousand dollars' damages were demanded Tuesday by the widow and mother of William Hetebrink of Fullerton, who died from injuries received in a crushing accident September 16, last Mrs. Harriett Hetebrink, the widow, and Mrs. Elizabeth Hetebrink, the mother, filed their damage action in superior court against the Los Angeles and Salt Lake Railroad Company and C. H. Shuey, motorman of the gas motor that collided with a truck carrying Hetebrink. The accident occurred on the Salt Lake route in Fullerton. In their damage complaint the women charge that the crossing was not protected by gates, flagman or mechanical signals. Attorneys Bertrand J. Wellman and Norval Nedwards, Los Angeles, represent the plaintiffs. Oscar Gibbs came down from Occidental on Wednesday evening to spend the Easter holidays with his parents. Oscar is a freshman at Oxy, and is taking a course in mechanical engineering and languages. Mr. and Mrs. Gerald Sandilands drove to El Centro on Saturday, and were house guests of Mr. and Mrs. C. E. Holcomb, who have moved there from Long Beach, having disposed of their apartment property at the latter place. Miss Dora Zeyn will leave Long Beach this week for El Centro and will make her home with her sister. Mrs. M. C. Root and little son, who have been guests of Mr. and Mrs. Gerald Sandilands for some weeks past, returned to their home in Los Angeles last week. Mrs. Root has entirely recovered from a serious operation she sustained about three months ago. She will be remembered here as the former Miss Mildred Lawrence, and is a great-granddaughter of Dr. William N. Hardin, pioneer physician of this county. Murdock Henry has gone to Stockton and will be absent some time in the northern city. Murdock's cheery smile and pleasant handshake will be missed while he is away. Murdock's handshake is in a class by itself, and his filming in the heart of these same desert wastes, on the present Navajo reservation for a railroad, the Elks Lodge Stages Spectacular Show Will Hold Aviation Meet at Brea Field on April 24 In order to augment their charity fund, the Anaheim Elks are staging a spectacular performance in the air that will be so full of thrills it will harrow up the souls of those who witness it and cause each particular hair in their heads to stand on end like quills upon a freetiful porcupine. This exhibition will be given at Brea field, in conjunction with the Brea Air Club, on Saturday, April 24. "Stunts you never dreamed about—showing the newest ships and motors," is a sentence in the poster announcing the meet. "Wild Bill" Tremaine, who made himself famous 10 years ago as an automobile racer, is now getting into the limelight as a daring aviator, and will make himself conspicuous on this occasion. Tremaine is just as reckless in the air as he was on the paved highways in former years. It is announced that 200 aviators will perform on this occasion. California to Show 'Vanishing American' "The forced retreat into the desert wastes, marked by a trail of blood, is one of the major transgressions of the white man against the red man." These words of Zane Grey, the novelist who wrote "The Vanishing American," tells the crux of the story of the Indians, which Paramount has made into an epic screen picture which comes to the West Coast California theater, Anaheim, Sunday, Monday and Tuesday of next week. The bitter, courageous stand of the Indian against the encroaching of the white man, their retreat from the well watered green fields where they had made their home into the barren desert, is said to be powerfully portrayed in this classic of the screen. Want Exec For Growth Constitutional Voted on No Forestry and coalfield California have an state constitution that comes before the veto timber.

MAIN FLOOR The S. Q. R. Stor Center and Lemon Streets Want Exemption For Growing Trees Constitutional Amendment to Be Voted on Next November Forestry and conservation leaders of California have approved the proposed state constitutional amendment, which comes before the voters next November, relative to the taxation of growing timber. It was the sense expressed by various organizations and individuals appearing at a public hearing before the state board of forestry that the amendment would open the way for better maintaining the present enormous timber resources of the state. Proponents of the amendment included the California Development Association, the Angeles Forest Protective Association, the Southern California Conservation Association, the California White Sugar Pine Manufacturers' Association, the California Forest Protection Association and others. The California Development Association will take the initiative in a campaign of education in support of the proposal, which would exempt growing timber from taxation until it is ready to be cut into lumber. A committee representing the various interested organizations presented a resolution to M. B. Pratt, state forester, urging that various appropriations for forest fire patrol in the different counties be lumped in one sum. The report also pointed out that certain counties were unable to provide sufficient cooperative money and that equitable provision should be made for them. A budget for the state board of forestry slightly increased over that of the current year—approximately $79.000—was submitted to the board as a suggestion for the basis of legislation at the next session. Mrs. Edwin Miller and young son returned on Sunday to their home in Los Angeles, after a pleasant week spent in this city as the guests of Mr. and Mrs. L. E. Miller. Ordinance Passed To Protect Forests Supervisors take Steps to Guard Trees and Watersheds The fire protection ordinance, proposed by Forest Ranger J. B. Stephenson to the county supervisors a week ago, was passed by the board Tuesday by unanimous vote, and will go into effect within 30 days. Provisions of the ordinance, however, do not have application until May 1, the date prescribed in the ordinance for clamping the lid upon carelessness with fire at spots where any fire hazard exists. Private property, as well as public lands, are included in the restrictions imposed by the ordinance, which was urged on the county by the forest service as an aid in protecting the forests and watersheds during the dry season. Between May 1 and the ensuing January 15, strict regulation is placed upon smoking, blasting, use of firearms, camping and other agencies of fire communication. Outdoor life, henceforth, will be governed by permit from the constituted authorities, which, under the ordinance, includes forest rangers and state wardens, who may issue permits for camping, smoking, hunting or the use of explosives under certain conditions and at designated spots during the "closed season." Violation of the ordinance is declared a misdemeanor, punishable by a fine of not to exceed $500 or a jail term of not more than six months, or both fine and sentence. The ordinance, Ranger Stephenson said today, is patterned on that recently enacted by San Bernardino county, Riverside and San Diego counties also are considering similar ordinances. To Be or Not to Be, That’s the Question A Hundred and Twenty Million People Want It Answered Whether the new malt tonic, with its 3.75 per cent of alcohol and its resemblance to outlawed beer will be salable throughout the United States remains to be seen. Some think it will Saloon League, expressed the opinion that the sale of a malt tonic would not violate the spirit or letter of the Volstead law, but six officials of the national organization, including F. Scott McBride, general superintendent, and Wayne B. Wheeler, general counsel, described it as a "mistake" which will lead to multiplied evasions of the law and diversions for beverage use." Their opinions were mild compared with that of E. S. Shumaker, superintendent of the Indiana Anti-Saloon League, who said, "You might as well open up the corner saloon," and predicted that "this will mark the end of Andrews."

NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN, by the undersigned, Godfrey Stock, executor of the will of Henry Gade, deceased, to the creditors of and all persons having claims against the said deceased to file them with the necessary vouchers in the office of the Clerk of the Superior Court of the County of Orange, State of California, or to exhibit the same with the necessary vouchers to the said executor at his place of business, to-wit, the law offices of Weisel & Stark, Rooms 2 and 3, Bank of America Building, Anaheim, in the County of Orange, within four months after the first publication of this notice. To Be or Not to Be, That’s the Question A Hundred and Twenty Million People Want It Answered Whether the new malt tonic, with its 3.75 per cent of alcohol and its resemblance to outlawed beer will be salable throughout the United States remains to be seen. Some think it will and some think it won’t, while others are waiting to be shown just how pleasant it is to take in beverage quantities. Despite the opinion of James E. Jones, director of prohibition, that there are no state laws that would prohibit sale of the "health booster," a number of state law officers in the West and South especially, share the skepticism expressed by Andrew J. Volstead, father of the federal prohibition act and now legal adviser in the district enforcement offices at St. Paul, Minn. Frank Nash, assistant attorney general of North Carolina, went farther than most of the state officials, asserting that "the sale of medicinal beer, so far as North Carolina is concerned, is illegal, and any drug store undertaking to sell it will be violating the state law." A less definite attitude, but one of watchful waiting, was taken by the law officers of Washington, Oregon and Oklahoma, while wholesale druggists in Utah and Colorado want rullings from state attorneys general before making any commitments, and those in Wisconsin have sought the opinion of L. C. Gunderson, state prohibition director. Some druggists, at least, are not enthusiastic over the action of Assistant Secretary Andrews of the treasury in permitting manufacture and sale of the malt tonic. In the opinion of Theodore D. Watterstroem, secretary of the Ohio Pharmaceutical Association, it will threaten the professional standing of drug stores dispensing it and tend to break down regulations governing the sale of tonics generally. The views of prohibition advocates differ, but most of them appear to be against the order. Dr. E. J.

SUMMONS IN THE JUSTICE COURT OF ANAHEIM TOWNSHIP IN AND FOR THE COUNTY OF ORANGE, STATE OF CALIFORNIA BEFORE CHARLES KUCHEL, JUSTICE OF THE PEACE C. A. McCULLAH, Plaintiff. vs. F. W. SMITTIE and JANE DOE SMITTIE, His Wife. Defendants. Action brought in the Justice Court of the Township of Anaheim, County and State as aforeset, and the complaint filed in the office of said court. The people of the State of California send greetings to F. W. Smittie and Jane Doe Smittie, his wife, defendants. You are directed to appear in an action brought against you by the above named plaintiff in the Justice Court of the Township of Anaheim, County of Orange, and State of California, and to answer the complaint therein, within five days after the service on you of this summons as served within the county of Orange, or within thirty days as served elsewhere; and you are notified that unless you appear and answer as above required, the plaintiff will take judgment for any money or SUGAR AS AN ISSUE It is reported from Washington that the opposition to the administration, starting through an investigation in the Senate of the tariff commission, intends to make the sugar tariff the paramount issue in the coming campaign. If this is true, then the opposition is going to be as sadly disappointed as it was in its selection of issues for the 1924 campaign. For the tariff on sugar is one of the schedules most easily defended by the advocate of protection to American industries. It is the theory of the sugar tariff proponents that this duty on foreign sugar affords protection to the American sugar growers, without which the American sugar growing industry would languish and expire altogether. And the sugar industry is important now, not only to the southern cane sugar region, but to Colorado, Utah and other states in the North and West where the growing of sugar beets has become a very important industry. The price of sugar to the housewife now is not excessive. But it is the theory of the free traders that if this tariff were taken off, the price of sugar would be a trifle lower. Possibly this might be true for a brief period of time, until the American sugar growers were put out of business, and the farmers in several states thereby impoverished. But the foreign sugar industry is now pretty much of a trust, just as the rubber industry is a trust. So when American competition was killed off, there would be nothing to prevent the foreign sugar monopoly from doing exactly what the rubber trust has done—namely, boost the price to a figure that would remind us again of war-time prices. Rubber manufacturers are now telling us that the way for American rubber users to protect themselves from foreign monopoly is to grow their own. What is true of rubber is true of sugar. If we want to protect ourselves from a foreign sugar monopoly we want to provide it with competition by continuing to grow our own. Not only will this help the beet sugar farmer. It will eventually assist the corn farmer too, because corn sugar is going to become an important American commodity in the near future. A clergyman who was a widower had three grownup daughters.

It is said that 100,000 people daily avail themselves of the 30 public bathhouses in Vienna at 5 cents per plunge. So, coming clean from Vienna ought to be a popular sport. French students recently broke up a communist meeting in Paris with a riot, and the communists protested vigorously. They are only in favor of direct action when they do it themselves. A clergyman who was a widower had three grownup daughters. Having occasion to go away for a few weeks, he wrote home from time to time. In one of his letters he informed them that he had married a widow with six children. This created a stir in his household. When the minister returned home, one of the daughters said, very anxiously: "Where's the widow you married, father?" "Oh, I married her to another man. I ought to have told you that." $195 BUYS sweet-toned player piano, with 100 rolls of music. Pay $5 per month. Cost new $1000 DANZ, 162 W.
