Seeking Addition To Court House Bar Association Wants Supervisors to Enlarge Building Definite promise that the county board of supervisors "would consider" a proposal to push plans on an addition to the courthouse and hall of records was given to L. A. West, president of the Orange County Bar Association, and Superior Judge James L. Allen, who asked the board for prompt action on building plans. The board will give its answer to the request next Wednesday. Chairman William Schumacher informed West and Judge Allen. The legal business of Orange county demands construction of the unit joining the courthouse and hall of records, and the legal profession is of the view that there should be no delay in supplying a need of such importance, the supervisors were told. While there are three departments of superior court, there are only two courtrooms of adequate dimensions and equipment and in the not far distant future there will be need of four courtrooms. There already is need of the third courtroom, and the three should be more closely grouped than at present in order to properly handle the busi-ness of the court. Such was the substance of the case as laid before the supervisors by Judge Allen and Attorney West. Judge Allen's court now is located in the hall of records, while the other two departments are in the courthouse. The new unit, as unofficially proposed, would unite the two buildings and probably would house two new courtrooms conveniently grouped with the two now established in the courthouse. The problem before the supervisors is one of finance in connection with the new construction, it was admitted. The board members discussed alternate methods—bonds or direct tax levy—and opinion favored the latter as less expensive. But whether the building could be financed in one year or spread over two years was a question not yet determined. West suggested that the board proceed at once to employ an architect and have plans prepared, in readiness to start the work as soon as a tax levy could make funds available after the beginning of the next fiscal year, in July.

Citrus Growers Receiving Checks Fruit Association Distributing More Than $38,000 The Washington naval growers of the Anaheim Citrus Fruit Association are today receiving $38,375.69 net proceeds of their Washington naval oranges shipped during December and January. That association shipped 10,236 boxes during December, which averaged the grower $2.76 per packed box, including their cull money; and 3735 packed boxes during January, which netted the growers $2.705 per box, including the cull money; or a grand total of 13,971 boxes, netting the grower $2.69 without the cull money, or $2.75, including the money received and paid the growers for culls, as such. All of these prices are exclusive of 5 cents per box retained for stock, and whatever refund there may be at the end of the season. The above packed boxes represent 22,491 field boxes, or an average of $1.71 net per field box, including the money received for culls and paid to the growers, as such. The Anaheim Citrus Fruit Association has now shipped all its oranges, exclusive of Valencias, excepting about ten cars of miscellaneous varieties, which will probably go forward the latter part of March. This association estimates that it will ship at least 900 cars of Valencias this current year, and possibly 950, if the oranges size up properly, as we can no wexpect after these copious rains. County Control Of Rural Schools Abolishment of Country Boards Being Advocated Designed to bring about a more equitable distribution of school revenues for support of rural schools in each county is a proposal to abolish school districts and to have the statistician at the state capital has estimated that Orange county leads all counties in the state in the per capita ownership of automobiles. His estimate is one automobile for every 2.14 persons. This is a world's record, it is claimed. Without knowledge as to the county population figures used in reaching the result, it is impossible to declare his statement correct. He probably used approximately 75,000 as the population basis for developing his figures. Orange county people estimate the population at 100,000, and on this basis the county has one automobile for every 2.98 persons. Orange county's portion of the state motor vehicle tax for the year was $90,378.03, from which was deducted $31,553.33 for salaries paid motorcycle officers, leaving a net distribution to the county of $58,825.70. The trial of Ben Munoz of Placentia, charged with issuing a fictitious $5 check to Frank Nels, was set for February 28, when Munoz was arraigned before Superior Judge Homer G. Ames. Munoz pleaded not guilty to the charge. If we were appointed to the senate and the senate refused to seat us, we wouldn't worry any, because we have been thrown out of better places than than anyhow.

MARKET SEN LAMB WITH DELICIOUS removed) oon salt County Control Of Rural Schools Abolishment of Country Boards Being Advocated Designed to bring about a more equitable distribution of school revenues for support of rural schools in each county is a proposal to abolish rural school districts and to have the same administered from the county superintendent's office, according to word received at the office of R. P. Mitchell, county superintendent of schools. According to Mitchell, such a move is favored by Mark Keppel, county superintendent of schools in Los Angeles county. The poverty of certain rural school districts with its blighting effect upon educational facilities, is the principal reasons for the change. With rural schools managed from the county superintendent's office, rich districts could be made to help support education in the poorer districts, thus equalizing as well as improving the opportunities offered all children in a county. Superintendent Mitchell has addressed a communication to his Los Angeles colleague, requesting further information on the subject. Commenting upon his proposal, Mitchell said that he is not prepared to go as far as the Los Angeles school man in recommending the abolition of all rural school districts, but would favor the elimination of local management in districts where less than eight teachers are employed. Such a reorganization not only would prove more advantageous from an economical standpoint, but would serve the best interests of education. In this connection, it was learned that the conditions of certain rural schools, due to limited finances, have been made the subject of inquiry by the California Congress of Parents and Teachers. A survey made by that organization shows that there are not less than 1884 one-room schools in the state.

The meeting of the committee will be held for the purpose of discussing proposed legislation which would have a direct effect on law enforcement in California and to determine which of the bills the association should back. Several bills which would be, it is claimed, detrimental to law enforcement, will be opposed, it is said. One of the bills would seriously handicap the fingerprint department of sheriffs' offices, if passed, it is claimed. The committee expects to finish its work before the legislature convenes on February 23 and to announce to the association its stand on the bills before that time, Sheriff Jernigan said. The meeting will be held in the office of Chief of Police O'Brien, of the San Francisco department, and President W. T. Stanford, chief of police of Vallejo, will be in charge. NOTABLE INCREASE With a capital investment in excess of $115,000,000 of which amount more than $100,000,000 is in liquid and readily marketable securities, the current statement of Bancitary Corporation has been made public by A. P. Glannini, president of the organization. In addition to its liquid securities, consisting of government, state, county and municipal bonds, and the stock of seasoned industrial concerns, the corporation has nearly $5,000,000 invested in business property of a revenue-producing character. An increase in assets amounting to more than $84,000,000 for the period from January 16, 1926, to February 8, 1927, is shown in the current statement. Aggregate investments are $98,000,000—a gain of $55,000,000 over the statement of last year. The principal item in this is represented by domestic bank stocks, which increased from $26,000,000 to $52,000,000. Surplus and undivided profits now total $59,560,829.28, a figure that exceeds by more than $3,000,000 the amount of the capital stock. THE GREATEST BUICK EVER BUILT George F. Howard 128 S. L. A.

He has decided to take a vacation and rest from his labors with the Anaheim Truck and Transfer Company. This morning the mayor, with his wife and daughter, Miss Frances, will leave for New York. The daughter will remain with friends in New York, but Mr. and Mrs. Leonard expect to sail on the steamship Lapland, March 5, for the other side of the Atlantic. They will visit the principal countries in Europe, also Egypt and Palestine. The Lapland's first stop will be at an Italian port. From there they will go to various points of interest in northern Africa. From there they will go through continental Europe, and also tour England, Scotland, Ireland and Wales. They plan to be absent six months. On the recommendation of Superintendent R. P. Mitchell, all the schools in the county were closed at noon Wednesday, and will not be opened until Monday morning. This step was taken because it was not deemed advisable for pupils to expose themselves to the inclement weather in order to reach the schoolhouse. $85 Buys good used Storey & Clark plano.
