Hundred-Foot Road Becoming Necessary Increasing Automobile Traffic Calls for Wider Highways Two Vacant Seats On Superior Bench Retirement of Judge Williams Leaves Candidates Hopeful The retirement of Judge R. Y. Williams from the superior bench and his declination to stand for another term has disarranged the plans of the Orange County Bar Association. The association recently indorsored Judge Williams and Judge Marks for re-election, and decreed they should have no opposition. This left only the seat made vacant-by the retirement of Judge West to be contested for. But Williams' retirement leaves two vancancies on the Orange county bench, and in all likelihood there will be a swarm of candidates for the two places. Judge Williams' resignation was prompted by ill health, his doctor having given him imperative orders to take a rest. Among those who are mentioned as likely to apply for appointment are Attorney Homer G. Ames of Anaheim and District Attorney A. P. Nelson of Santa Ana, both of whom are expecting to be candidates at the August primaries for superior judge; Attorney James Allen of Santa Ana and Attorney William F. Menton of Santa Ana. Judge Williams is one of the best known residents of Orange county, and one of the leading legal lights of Southern California. It is known that, had he desired it, long ago he could have been appointed to positions on the appellate courts of the state. Unwilling, however, to move away from the county, he refused to consider any such advancement. The son of Mr. and Mrs. J. P. Williams of Villa Park, R. Y. Williams, came to this county as a boy. He entered practice here in the '90's, was elected district attorney, and served in numerous political capacities throughout a long and close association with the county's political affairs. He attained a position as head of the bar of the county, and was successful in his business gave up his appointment of Judge of the recognized great sacrilege Judge William change, and as a judge He became 1919, and in years' term...

Hundred-Foot Road Becoming Necessary Increasing Automobile Traffic Calls for Wider Highways In discussing the growth of Orange county the other day, Supervisor William Schumacher declared it is necessary now in planning road improvements to look ahead at least 10 years and lay plans accordingly. The increased population gained during the past five years has made the handling of motor vehicles upon county highways a rather complex question. There is no doubt wide boulevards will serve to meet the needs of people on the highways. One hundred-foot roadways would greatly reduce congestion. These wide streets would permit vehicles to pass two abreast in either direction. Besides, the widened roads give a picturesque effect to the landscape. The routing of cars upon certain streets also would go a long way in reducing congestion and, likewise, remove the hazardous possibility of accidents. While, of course, the time is not ripe in the country districts for trolleys or subways, still the time may come when these adjuncts will have to be resorted to in order to handle the ever-increasing motor vehicles. California is gaining population so rapidly that the problem of handling traffic is now engaging the serious attention of men who are concerned regarding this question. Many county roads are now being widened from 10 to 20 feet by adding extra shoulders to the pavements. TENNESSEEANS WILL MEET IN ANNUAL PICNIC The big annual picnic reunion of the Tennessees of all Southern California will be held all day, Saturday, May 8, in Sycamore Grove park, Los Angeles. Every one who is proud of the old home state will be made welcome, whether resident or visiting here. If you are ashamed of Tennessee, just stay away. There will be registers and headquarters for each county and hot coffees provided, but carry the picnic dinner with the old-time Tennessee "eats." A program will follow the dinner hour and will include song and oratory. Pass the good news along to all you know from Tennessee and ask them to meet the old friends again. Ask your questions of C. H. Parsons, secretary of the Federation of State Societies, Hotel Rosslyn, F.Aber 3300. Five Track Men to Compete in Finals Five Track Men to Compete in Finals A. U. H. S. Will Uphold Colors at Coliseum Tomorrow Tomorrow afternoon, at the Los Angeles coliseum, five class "C" track men of the Anaheim Union high school will uphold the Blue and Gold. Entered in five events, these boys will try to bring home the bacon under the colors of their alma mater. Harold Tompkins, the flash of the local team, will be in the 50 and the century. His principal opponent will be Elinstein of Hollywood, whom Tompkins trailed in both events last Saturday. Kuchel qualified to run in the 220, and will run in this event tomorrow. James Holland, pole vaulter, was one of the eight in the Southern California preliminaries to get the O.K. for tomorrow. The fifth event in which the Colonists placed was the relay. Due to bad passing and the short space of time between events, the four boys, badly frightened, managed to come in fourth. During the week every known method of improving relay runners has been resorted to, and it is sincerely hoped that the boys will annex a place in the stick passing contest. The probable positions in the relay will be: Kuchel, first; Alsip, second; Martinez, third; Tompkins, fourth. There is a possibility that Lenz will take Martinez' place in the relay. Deserving credit goes to Paul Demaree for his work in bringing about a possible Southern California title. He and his five men will leave at 10 o'clock tomorrow for the races. Plantings of fruit trees and vines in the Yucalpa valley, San Bernardino county, totaled 25,189 for this season. Elks Plan Catalina Island Pilgrimage For a number of years the Long Beach lodge of Elks has been making a spring pilgrimage to Catalina island, taking a large class of candidates with them for initiation. This year it was decided to invite all lodges in the Southern California jurisdiction to join in with them and bring their candidates. The date has been set for Saturday and Sunday, May 22 and 23. A special rate of $10 has been offered by the Santa Catalina Island Company. This includes steamer fare both ways, room with bath and meals at the beautiful Hotel St. Catherine, as well as the side trips to the submarine gardens and seal rocks. At no time of the year is Catalina more inviting than in May, with its green verdure clad hills. The golf course at that time will be at its best, and it is expected to be well patronized. Two years ago, when Long Bench lodge of Elks played host to the thousands at the annual Elks' state convention, held at Catalina, it was proclaimed the best ever, and those who attended left with reluctance, promising that they would come again. It is expected that at least 500 will attend this get-together session and that it will be the forerunner of a like gathering each year. Elks who plan on attending this session should make requests for reservations with the secretary. Chances are there won't be much more quarrelling in Europe now until the League of Nations meets in September. his business investments. When he gave up his practice in order to accept appointment by Governor Stephens as judge of the superior court, it was recognized that the change was at a great sacrifice financially. However, Judge Williams was able to afford the change, and so made it. His success as a judge has been marked. He became superior judge January 1, 1919, and in 1920 was elected to a six years' term without opposition. Local Veterinarian Files Damage Suits O. E. Yorke Asks Damages for Alleged Eviction and Deceit Two damage suits, aggregating $7500, have been filed in superior court by O. E. Yorke, local veterinarian, against the firm of Dungan & Callicotte, alleging that the defendants caused his eviction from leased premises on North Lemon street and La Palma avenue, Anaheim, and also that they sold him a veterinary hospital and kennels, of which he later was deprived by another claimant, whose ownership was better founded. Yorke asks $5000 damages in the suit over his eviction and $2500 damages for alleged "deceit" in connection with the hospital sale. He had sub-leased quarters from Dungan & Callicotte for eight years, he alleged. G. M. Bartlett, owner of the property, evicted Dungan & Callicotte and Yorke, also, through some fault of Dungan & Callicotte, it is claimed. Yorke found himself facing the necessity of negotiating a new lease from Bartlett at less advantageous terms. He wants damages for this fact, for the difference in rental under his new lease and for the lost chance of selling his old lease at a profit. He also demands damages for alleged slander of his possession of the premises, by Dungan & Callicotte, who said he had no right to such possession, he charges. Attorneys Wood and McArthur of Long Beach represent the plaintiff. Eighty thousand mulberry trees for the silk farm, the first shipment of an order for 224,000, have arrived at Escondido, San Diego county. If the League of Nations wants to have our reservations to the World Court clarified, why not send the senate over to Geneva to debate the whole thing over again? Are You an Investor or a Speculator? INVESTORS place their money with Safety of principal and a definite Income return as primary objects. Speculators primarily expect the rise or fall of market prices to make a profit for them. Unless you are financially able to take chances, you should be an Investor, and the more carefully and conservatively you invest, the better off you will be in the long run.
