Fire Fighting Force Will Be Organized Twenty-five Hundred Men to Be Formed in Reserve Corps Mobilization of the forest fire fighting reserve was authorized on Friday at a meeting held at the Chamber of Commerce. H. S. Bissell, president of the Conservation Association of Southern California, agreed to take over the detail work of the organization, and work along the lines of establishing the necessary quota of 2500 men was begun. Manufacturing organizations in Los Angeles and Southern California, which are to form the recruiting bases for the reserve, are to be notified this week of the quota each is expected to supply. It is proposed to form ten units of 250 men each. Two of these units have already been provided for, and the towns of Southern California are to be taken into the organization on the basis of an allotment of so many men for the units proposed. The federal government has a fund available for paying the men who are to work on the firing line. United States Fire Agent H. S. Ryerson, who is executive vice-president of the conservation association, had the necessary military experience in the war. He is to have charge of the military end of the organization. This is not to be made irksome, but when a fire starts, as it is possible to have only 250 men on the firing line during even the hottest fire, some sort of military tactics will be necessary to make certain the relief of these men who are in the fire zone. The front line trenches are to be filled at all times with fresh men. The quickest of action is what insures a quick and rapid stamping out of the most dangerous fire. In this way the people of the Southland will be shown that it is possible to cope with a dangerous situation in a systematic manner, and support will be given to the forest fire fighters' reserve. Units are to be formed in each of the cities and towns of Southern California. Already Pasadena has taken the initiative and is forming the first unit, and this week word is to be sent to the bills were killed by the filmmaker in the Senate during the closing days of the last session, suffering has been caused the disabled veterans, widows and children of the World war veterans, according to the statement of the Legion's national legislative committee. It is expected that the coming national convention to be held this fall in Paris, France, will take cognizance of the situation in congress and ask that a change be made in the rules. California is to receive a visit from Howard P. Savage, national commander of the American Legion, according to word received by Nathan F. Coombs of Napa, former state commander of the Legion and at present, national commiteeman from this state in the World Local B In the suit brought citizen, named Childe swerved by C. E.

The quickest of action is what insures a quick and rapid stamping out of the most dangerous fire. In this way the people of the Southland will be shown that it is possible to cope with a dangerous situation in a systematic manner, and support will be given to the forest fire fighters' reserve. Units are to be formed in each of the cities and towns of Southern California. Already Pasadena has taken the initiative and is forming the first unit, and this week word is to be sent to the Associated Chambers of Commerce, asking that a list of those who will be available for service be given the conservation association. It is proposed to have this force available for active service this summer. The dangerous fires which have been such a hazard in the years that are gone are to be dealt with this season with a high-powered force of fire fighters who will be on the job every instant. This year the fire hazard is particularly great. The heavy rains have caused a growth of long grass which, when dry, is particularly inflammable. This means that the flames may sweep swiftly through the underbrush unless the blaze is dealt with by a force of men experienced in handling fire who are using the latest and best forest fire fighting apparatus with which the new forces of the forest fire fighters' reserve will be equipped. LEGION NOTES Picturing the American Legion as a "mighty builder, diligently working on the construction of a better citizenship, and building towards permanent peace throughout the world," Dr. John F. Slavich, state commander of the World war veterans' organization, in a short Memorial Day message, has called upon California veterans to devote themselves to the task at hand. Commander Slavich has issued the following message to his posts: "All reverently we pause in our exacting daily careers to again pay a grateful homage to America's heroic defenders. For in passing from youth to maturity, there has developed within our hearts a keener understanding of the splendid heritage of freedom and justice which these men and women heroes of our republic have willed us in trust. And with this appreciation of their all faithfully and without hesitation placed upon the altar of surrender, we of the living Legion realize the privilege which is ours to carry on, and in their name promote good-will and peace among our people." "Upon this commonwealth of California the smile of God’s sunshine bathes mountain, valley and ocean shore. Again the bounty of His goodness is manifested in the return of blossoms to our fields and hillside slopes, and by them we are reminded that life goes on. To our friends who today mourn those who are but just away we would express our thoughts according to the statement of the Legion's national legislative committee. It is expected that the coming national convention to be held this fall in Paris, France, will take cognizance of the situation in congress and ask that a change be made in the rules. California is to receive a visit from Howard P. Savage, national commander of the American Legion, according to word received by Nathan F. Coombs of Napa, former state commander of the Legion and at present, national committeeman from this state in the World war veterans' organization. Savage will attend the state convention of the Legion to be held at Santa Barbara, August 2, 3, and 4, as guest of the California department. Engineering Course At Summer Session Courses in mechanical and electrical engineering will be a special feature at the University of California summer session in Los Angeles, June 25 to August 6. These subjects are offered not only for teachers of practical work in occupations, but for the ordinary laymen interested in home mechanics. Adrian Keller of the University of California at Los Angeles will offer a course in furniture construction and repair. In this course the construction, finish, repair and refinishing of furniture will be taken up, and a brief resume of various period styles given. The use of stains, fillers and varnishes will be analyzed. Automobile construction and repair is to be handled by James W. Marsh, also of the state university at Los Angeles. Mr. Marsh is a United States certified chief engineer on motorships, a member of the Society of Automotive Engineers, and associate editor of the Service Station News. He has written a book on storage battery facts. The course will be a combination demonstration and show-course covering the principles of internal combustion engines, carburetion, lubrication, cooling, engine testing, road repair etc. Courses in machine shop and sheet metal have been arranged by Harold W. Mansfield, director of shops, state university. He will also give a course in machine drawing and architectural drawing. The latter course includes lettering, details of typical frame and masonry construction plans, sections and specifications. Summer session shop includes work in pattern making, foundry practice and machine shop practice. Mr. Mansfield is to give a course in engineering drawing which is designed to meet the requirements of both engineering and mechanical art students. Further information concerning summer session courses may be obtained at $15 Hill Street building, Los Angeles. What Conservation Is Accomplishing Upon this commonwealth of California the smile of God's sunshine bathes mountain, valley and ocean shore. Again the bounty of His goodness is manifested in the return of blossoms to our fields and hillside slopes, and by them we are reminded that life goes on. To our friends who today mourn those who are but just away, we would express our thoughts of comfort, pledging ourselves again, in the name of those who have gone beyond, to safeguard the principles for which they sacrificed, that this golden heritage of freedom may be faithfully transmitted to posterity. Let us then in this consecration become mighty builders, diligently working on the construction of a better citizenship and building towards a permanent peace throughout the world. In recognition of the services of Dr. John F. Slavich, state commander of the American Legion, the various posts of the organization have set the week of May 31 to June 7 as "Slavich membership testimonial week" and will conduct a vigorous campaign for additional members during that period. Dr. Slavich has long been active in the veterans' organization and will soon end his term as state commander. Public rebuke of the filibustering tactics of United States senators and the rules committee of the House in congress who oppose legislation desired by a great majority, including measures affecting the disabled veterans of World war, widows and children, is made by National Commander Howard P. Savage of the American Legion in a message received here by James K. Flak, state adjutant of the organization. Commander Savage has indicated that a nation-wide campaign among the Legion Posts will be made to secure a change in the present situation in congress. Because of the fact that appropriation What Conservation Is Accomplishing The Water Conservation Association has just finished a very successful season of spreading water. At the present time there are about 7500 inches of water available on the property owned and controlled by the association for spreading purposes. At the request of those having prior rights this water is being turned down the river as the association always promptly recognizes the prior right appropriators. There have been sunk during the present season approximately 16,480 acre-feet of water. The cost of spreading water from 1911 to date has been approximately 6 cents per acre-foot and the capital cost has been approximately $1.50 per acre-foot. Two acre-feet per annum will irrigate an acre of orange grove and about three acre-feet per annum will irrigate an acre of alfalfa. The gross return from crops would be not less than $100 per acre. It will be seen that the water spread this season has a gross value to the three counties of approximately $284,000. Storage of water in these underground gravels can be accomplished at a lower cost than the water can be stored in any other manner. Unfortunately, 50,000 acre-feet of water escaped into the ocean during the past season, but when the plans for complete flood control and conservation are completed by the state engineer and engineers employed by the three counties, the way will be open for the construction of works for complete flood control and conservation of this valuable water. Manufacturers Desire To Standardize Tires Car manufacturers desire to reduce balloon sizes for equipment on advance 1928 models for fall, according to reports stated in the May issue of the Tire and Rubber Review from Akron. Roy M. Hudson, chief of the division of simplified practices, Department of National Automobile Chamber of Commerce, has organized a committee composed of representatives of the automotive industry, to survey the present situation with a view to concentrating on a selected number of balloon sizes for equipping future models. The proposition for tire simplification has been hanging fire for the past two years, but the tire manufacturers could do nothing without the co-operation of the car manufacturers. The standardization project does not mean the manufacture of any new sizes but simply a selection from the wide variety of present sizes to which equipment for new models will be limited. The many off-sizes required for replacements on present models will be manufactured as long as necessary, but gradually the tire manufacturers will be able to bring their entire production within the range of the sizes selected as standard for new cars. Mr. Hudson pointed out the recent trend in automotive design to bring cars closer to the ground has introduced four wheel diameters, 18, 19, 20, and 21 inches respectively, and with each of these wheel sizes has come an increase in the size variety of cross section, so that now there are at least 36 balloon sizes for passenger cars. For each of these sizes, the tire manufacturers' initial cost per mold averages $1000, and then the tire dealer is required to tie up a lot of capital in carrying an adequate stock to supply the demands of his customers. Mr. Hudson predicts that with simplification of wheel and tire size, the economy will be for the automotive owner, as well as in the purchase of replacements. West Brothers, local India distributors, hope to see this step successfully carried out, as it will simplify the difficulties now existing. They now have all the new balloon sizes in stock and judgment will given under May, 1927.
