Motor Vehicle Dept. Run Economically More Than Three Million Dollars Saved From Appropriation Businesslike methods applied to the administration of the California motor vehicle department have resulted in turning back to the state during the first three years of Governor Richardson's term of office $3,316,865.91 saved from the amount allowed by law for the operation of the department. This and the following facts were shown in a report to the governor by Will H. Marsh, chief of the motor vehicle division, made public this week. The great increase in the number of operated automobiles in the state of California during the past three and one-half years has resulted in 2,983,247 additional registrations over the number of registrations for the corresponding period during the administration of the prior governor. This has been an increase of 121 per cent. The work of the department with the application of efficient measures, and despite additional duties added by law in 1923 and 1925, has been carried on with only 37 per cent increase in expenditures. The rate of expense to registration has decreased from .9187 to .5700. The motor vehicle department has collected during the first three and one-half years of Governor Richardson's administration $32,850,734.84 as compared to $24,812,275.05 during the three and one-half years' period beginning January 1, 1919. A greater amount would have been collected had not the rate of fees been changed. The automobile registration fees were reduced during the term of the present governor, with the adoption of the 2-cent gas tax from 40 cents per horsepower to a flat rate of $3. The division of motor vehicles was allowed 20 per cent for the operation of the department. At no time during Governor Richardson's administration has the department used this amount, but each year has turned back large sums to the state through canyon below the properties of his company. In his letter Mr. Grant says: "I want you to know that I will give you my hearty co-operation along these lines, and I realize as a sportsman the value of the work you are doing." From one of the worst polluted counties of the state, Ventura has risen to one of the cleanest, according to Game Warden Walter F. Smerick, who point out that the co-operation given by oil company officials in this matter is of the highest order. Officials of the pollution bureau announce that this is generally true stating that in event of an accident, and the inadvertant dumping of quantities of oil into California waters, officials of the offending company use every effort to immediately apprise the bureau of the facts in the case, and to clean up conditions as rapidly as possible. B. D. Marx Greene, executive officer of the commission, is quoted as saying that Section 635 of the Penal Code, governing pollution matters, is being very generally obeyed at present. Road Tree Planting Began 50 Years Ago Highway tree planting in California along formal lines originated nearly fifty years ago, according to the National Automobile Club, when John McLaren, who made Golden Gate park from sand dunes, planted that stately avenue of eucalyptus trees which makes the state highway south from San Francisco in San Mateo county an avenue of cool and restful shade. Since then highway tree planting has received legal recognition by the legislature which has provided that boards of supervisors may appoint a board of forestry which shall have exclusive charge and control of all shade and ornamental trees, hedges, shrubs and flowers growing or to be grown upon the public roads of their particular county. Under this act many counties have planted trees upon their roads and in some instances avenue of rose bushes, or other flowering plants have been put in. Automobiles Are there many "good among motorists today with a fellow autoist in trouble." While friendly aid is free in such cases, complaints are heard from drivers who unfortunate on the highways average motorist is selfish stop to assist another man by the wayside. Many luckless drivers wish this attitude have also had appreciate the "good safari" shown by drivers in the service of the Automobile Southern California, who years of operation just gave incalculable assistance sands of autolists in different report of the activities since it was begun in July shown that over 20,000 along the highways were started by the expert patrol men were towed to the motorist to the mall No charge is ever made for except for the cost of gas furnished to stranded drivers. One of the most typical types climaxed two years after that in which two highways of the auto club apply 20-year-old youths at the car on the Ridge route conscious man beside them gashes indicated that they beaten him over the headmatic revolver with robbing him. The motor old business man of a hit stopped along the road to a "lift." The auto clique gave the man medical rush him to a hospitalthe youthful yeggs were injured persons have emergency first aid treat instances-by the highways since the service was sent paired to $24,812,275.05 during the three and one-half years' period beginning January 1, 1919. A greater amount would have been collected had not the rate of fees been changed. The automobile registration fees were reduced during the term of the present governor, with the adoption of the 2-cent gas tax from 40 cents per horsepower to a flat rate of $3. The division of motor vehicles was allowed 20 per cent for the operation of the department. At no time during Governor Richardson's administration has the department used this amount, but each year has turned back large sums to the state through the highway commission, one-half of this saving going to the counties from which the tax was collected for highway purposes, the other half being used for state highways. These amounts are as follows: 1923 $1,736,451.24 1924 761,169.32 1925 $19,245.35 The total number of registrations during the past three and one-half years' period has been 5,442,913—more than double the number during the corresponding period four years previous. For the earlier period the number of registrations was 2,459,866. Despite the great increase in the work of the department, the expenditures have been but $3,102,197.75 as against $2,259,745.50 from January 1, 1919 to June 30, 1923. The income has increased 32½ per cent. The rate of registration to expense has decreased 34.87 per cent, or more than one-third. The new duties of the department added by the 1923 legislature include the issuance of pink or ownership certificates as a protective measure and the additional enforcement of the motor vehicle act. The legislature of 1925 created a title file to the records of the department, adding one more complete record with respect to all registrations. The last legislature also provided for the examination of all new operators and chauffeurs. The law enforcement organization of the motor vehicle department is now operating in 44 counties of the state and includes 210 men, all of whom were selected and placed in the field by the present administration, with the result that a uniform standard and courteous enforcement of the act on state highways is now in force throughout the state. The department has established and has in uniform working condition 1500 official headlight adjusting stations for the scientific adjustment of headlights without extra cost to motorists and for their special service and the minimizing of the headlight evil. Through cooperation with the automobile clubs, service to motorists has been extended and more rapid distribution of license plates has been effected. The special service car has been fitted out and placed in service. This car goes about the state highways taking registrations, giving information, and affords special service in remote sections not covered by the automobile clubs. Through competitive bidding, the state during the past year saved more than $50,000 in the purchase of license plates, the cost per pair being reduced from 14.2c to $24,812,275.05 during January 1, 1919. A greater amount would have been collected had not the rate of fees been changed.

The motor vehicle department receives and sends out more material than any other institution in the state. During 1925 more than 1,200,00 pieces of mail were sent out through the Sacramento postoffice. Public service has been extended in various other ways. A 24-hour telephone service has been established at the division of motor vehicles to permit the police throughout the state to secure immediate information in the checking up of car owners. Such information is furnished at any hour, of the day or night. The systemized and efficient motor vehicle department has benefitted every motor vehicle operator in the state, in addition to the taxpayers of California. Puttting a Stop to Pollution of Waters Pollution of the waters of Hopper canyon, in Ventura county, is to be stopped immediately, and every effort will be made to prevent a recurrence of same, according to a letter received recently by the bureau of river and harbor pollution, from Hugh Grant of the Julian Petroleum Company, Los Angeles. The Julian company has large oil properties in the Hopper canyon region, and conditions there were recently described by Capt. C. S. Bauder, controlling the southern fish and game district of California, as the most serious in the state. All other sections of Ventura county having been freed of oil pollution, officials of the commission placed the Hopper canyon matter before Mr. Grant in the light of a requisite of true sportsmanship; it being shown that fish were unable to live in the waters of the Steve Griset, chairman of the board of directors of the dairy department of the Farm Bureau, announced today the employment of Goodwin Rogness as tester for the association. Mr. Rogness formerly tested in a cowtesting association in Minnesota, going from there to Imperial valley, where he filled a like position for the last two and one-half years. Mr. Rogness' position of determining the monthly and yearly butterfat production of the cows in the ability of determining whether the individual can produce butterfat on an economical basis or whether she would be more profitable as a beef animal. His duties while on the dairyman's ranch will be to advise on feeding and management of the herd, in addition to determining the butterfat production. The position is one of service to the dairymen. NO SIGNIFICANCE The country is none the worse for the visit which Al Smith paid to the President at White Pine Camp in the Adirondacks. The difference in political thought between the Democratic governor of the state of New York and the Republican President is wide as the ocean and high as a mountain, and there need be no fear that either man by reason of this social contact has been moved a hair's breadth from the fundamentals of his political belief. But the American people, who have a passion for sportsmanship, which they have carried to the extent of providing by custom that the defeated or retiring governor or President must escort his successor to the chair about to be vacated, feel all the better for the little session such as the President and the governor have just had. Both gentlemen fulfilled every requirement of this American test with grace, dignity and good fellowship. It please all of us to read even the small talk of such a meeting, because it reassures us once again that no matter how bitter or intense our feelings or political differences, we are all American citizens, and that very sharpness of the sword with which we turn on one another in the heat of political battle, is a warning to the enemies of our country who appreciate that once our nation is attacked, the swords of all parites will fit into one scabbard.

While friendly aid is frequently found in such cases, complaints occasionally are heard from drivers who have been unfortunate on the highway that the average motorist is selfish and will not stop to assist another motorist stalled by the wayside. Many luckless drivers who have noted this attitude have also had occasion to appreciate the "good samaritan" spirit shown by drivers in the highway patrol service of the Automobile Club of Southern California, which in two years of operation just completed has given incalculable assistance to thousands of autists in difficulties. In a report of the activities of the service since it was begun in July, 1924, it is shown that over 20,000 disabled cars along the highways were repaired and started by the expert mechanics driving the highway patrols. All motorists in trouble are aided by this daily partol of 2500 miles of Southern California highways. Since the service was inaugurated, 1522 stalled cars which could not be started by the patrol men were towed free of charge to the motorist to the nearest garage. No charge is ever made for this service, except for the cost of gasoline and oil furnished to stranded drivers. One of the recent typical services that climaxed two years of activity was that in which two highway patrol men of the auto club apprehended two 20-year-old youths at the wheel of a car on the Ridge route, with an unconscious man beside them. Three long gashes indicated that they had brutally beaten him over the head with an automatic revolver with intentions of robbing him. The motorist, a 64-year-old business man of a nearby city, had stopped along the road to give the boys a "lift." The auto club patrol men gave the man medical first aid and rushed him to a hospital, after which the youthful veggs were taken to jail. Injured persons have been given emergency first aid treatment in 453 instances by the highway patrol men since the service was started, the results being that the men are capable of handling these situations. Highway Building Bids were opened Monday by the California highway commission for the paving of the Mountain Springs grade on the trunk highway, in eastern San Diego and western Imperial county. Jahn and Bresal of Los Angeles were low bidders, with an offer of $286,627. The engineer's estimate was $316,961.50. Paying of this grade, which was recently widened and straightened by the commission, will remove one of the worst barriers to travel between the Imperial valley and the coast. Because of peculiar formation of the soil, maintenance of a satisfactory surfaced highway on this grade has become impossible under present heavy traffic. It forms a part of the Old Spanish Trail. Award of a contract will be considered by the commission at its next meeting, to be held on August 16. Bids scheduled to be opened today for a line change at Gavolta creek, in Santa Barbara county, were not opened. A decision has been reached to revise the plans and readvertise the project. The commission has asked bids for the building of two reconstruction projects located in Shasta and Santa Barbara counties. In Shasta county numerous curves and grades on the Pacific highway will be eliminated by the building of a high arch bridge over Dog Creek canyon. The arch span of the bridge will have a length of 224 feet, and the distance from the bottom of the canyon to the floor of the bridge will be 125 feet. Including approach spans, the total length of the bridge will be 518 feet. It will have a clear roadway width of 24 feet. The arch will be the longest and the highest on the state highway system, exceeding in size two others in the same locality, built to facilitate realignment of the Pacific highway through the Sacramento canyon. The Santa Barbara project, including grading and repaving of 4,471 miles of state highway between Summerland and Carpinteria. The grade of the existing highway will be raised several feet to better drainage conditions, after which a cement concrete pavement with a width of 30 feet will be placed. The latter project is included in the together with costs of advertising and expenses of the sale. R. E. NEBELUNG, Secretary, Pacific Mausoleum Company, 211 W. Chartress Street, Anaheim, California. NOTICE OF ASSESSMENT Bae-Mar Land Company, Location of principal place of business, 130 West Center St., Anaheim, Orange County.State of California. Notice is hereby given, that at a meeting of the Directors, held on the 3rd day of August, 1926, an assessment of Five Dollars per share was levied upon the capital stock of the corporation, payable on the 3rd day of September, 1926, to the Secretary of said Bae-Mar Land Company, at his office, 130 West Center Street, Anaheim, Orange County, California. Any stock upon which this assessment shall remain unpaid on the 3rd day of September, 1926, will be delinquent and advertised for sale at public auction, and, unless payment is made before, will be sold on the 20th day of September, 1926, to pay the delinquent assessment, together with costs of advertising and expenses of sale.

Coast Lines In effect November 29th, 1925 Trails to Los Angeles National Forests Have Banner Business Year Receipts from the 18 national forests of California for the fiscal year ending June 30, 1926, totaled $1,276,245, reports the San Francisco district headquarters of the United State Forest Service. This is the largest annual revenue ever received from federal forest resources in this state, and exceeds the receipts of the preceding fiscal year by $289,600. Twenty-five per cent of this total revenue, or $319,060 will be returned to the state by the federal government for distribution to counties in which the national forests are located for road and school development, and an additional 10 per cent or $127,624 will be pended by the forest service on road and trail construction in these counties, making a grand total of $446,680, which will be returned to California in lieu of taxes on these federal properties. Timber is the best paying resource of the national forests of California, and car on the judge route with an conscious man beside them. Three long gashes indicated that they had brutally beaten him over the head with an automatic revolver with intentions of robbing him. The motorist, a 64-year-old business man of a nearby city, had stopped along the road to give the boys a "lift." The auto club patrol men gave the man medical first aid and rushed him to a hospital, after which the youthful veggs were taken to jail. Injured persons have been given emergency first aid treatment in 453 instances by the highway patrol man since the service was started, the report shows. Since the men are especially equipped through courses of training to render first aid under all circumstances, they know what to do when they come up with serious accidents along their patrols. Other accounts of the two years' report show that 1598 tires have been changed for women drivers unaccompanied by male escort; that 18,020 pilots of broken glass have been swept from the highways; that road directions were given in 16,167 instances; gasoline supplied to 1292 stranded motorists; that more than 3800 detour signs were erected, and that 183 stolen cars were recovered and the thieves apprehended in many instances by the highway patrol drivers. Two eastern states believe that their present speed laws are antiquated, in view of the improvements in both automobile construction and roads, according to advises reaching the club. In motorists move faster or get out of line on a crowded highway were issued to the police of the state highway motor patrol. The order applies only to open roads where no danger to pedestrians will result from vehicles moving from 25 to 30 miles an hour. In Wisconsin the State Automobile Association has gone on record in favor of a speed of 40 miles an hour on state highways and 25 miles an hour on arterial highways within the corporate limits of cities.

The 24th day of August, 1926, at the hour of eleven o'clock A.M., of said day, at the room of the Board of Supervisors, in the Court House at Santa Ana, California, has been fixed as the time and place when the said Board of Supervisors will meet to censusmate such purchase. The arch will be the longest and the highest on the state highway system, exceeding in size two others in the same locality, built to facilitate realignment of the Pacific highway through the Sacramento canyon. The Santa Barbara project, including grading and repaving of 4.47 miles of state highway between Summerland and Carpinteria. The grade of the existing highway will be raised several feet to better drainage conditions, after which a cement concrete pavement with a width of 30 feet will be placed. The latter project is included in the recently announced program of the state highway commission for the rebuilding of state highways in Santa Barbara county, originally constructed by the county and taken over by the state. Bids will be opened in Sacramento on August 30. It costs, however, from 300 to 400 per cent more to mine it now than then, but the same old price is a fixture having been established by law. If the gold produced by a mine could be exempted from the federal income tax, it would make of gold mining a tax-exempt industry; and this relief would be just enough to bring into the industry the millions needed to revive, recondition, develop and revitalize the oldest and one of the greatest producers of wealth."

Encouragement of Mining Essential Urging the exemption of gold from the federal income tax, and greater production of the precious metal in the United States, Marshall DeMotte of Corning, California, says: "I believe that the gold produced by any miner or mining company should be exempt from the federal income tax. I believe that an act providing for such a relief by the federal government would be legal. I believe that such a relief to the miners would be fair to the general public because of the peculiar position that gold holds among all commodities. I believe that this one help is all that is needed to rejuvenate gold mining, and that now is the logical time to introduce a measure in congress to accomplish this end. "The production of gold is entirely distinct, and offers no comparison with that of any other commodity. Gold is not subject to fluctuation of value, as are all other products, but brings the same price today that it did in 1878."
