Cypress Indifferent To Flood Control Buena Park Must Form District Without Assistance That flood protection work in the Cypress-Buena PIR storm water district, if carried out as urged by the Buena Park Chamber of Commerce, must proceed without the co-operation of residents of the Cypress area, was indicated at a meeting called by the district in the Cypress grammar school Wednesday evening. Only four residents of the Cypress district were in attendance at the meeting, at which it was hoped that an expression might have been made of the opinion of Cypress folk toward the flood control work. Indications however, that progress is being made in bringing about a flood control program in the Buena Park district, were given reports made by several who have been working earnestly on the project. J. F. Simpson, representing the county road department, reported that the county is ready to meet all demands of the district in regard to the placing of culverts under roads. George Miller of Cypress, chairman of the storm water district board, reported that he had the word of the assistant-general manager of the Southern Pacific Railroad company that the company would take care of the storm water problems on their right-of-way and would meet the district grades when established. G. G. Pridley of Cypress stated that it was his opinion that no storm water work was desired in his district. He stated that property owners seem to feel that the benefits more than outweigh the losses of floods in that section. Mr. Miller advised that no dredging be undertaken in Coyote creek until Los Angeles county is ready to cooperate.

Overloaded Trucks To Be Eliminated Drastic Steps Being Taken to Preserve the Highways Backed by the hearty support of Governor C. C. Young, the Division of Motor Vehicles has launched a determined campaign to protect state and county highways of California by eliminating overloaded trucks. Five crews fully equipped with scales and other necessary equipment were put in the field by Chief Frank O. Snook with orders to stop every truck suspected of being overloaded, weigh it and arrest the driver if the law is found to have been violated. The crews were also given orders to stop the speeding of trucks, a flugrant source of damage to the highways. The truck-weighting and checking crews will be maintained as a permanent organization, for it is the belief of the motor vehicle organization that thousands of dollars can be saved to the taxpayers by a careful supervision of this means of transportation. In order to facilitate the work of the crews, the state has been divided into five districts, with headquarters in Uklah, Sacramento, Fresno, San Jose, and Santa Ana. The men will report daily to Chief Inspector C. K. Harder at Sacramento. In weighing trucks the officers have instructions that no axle may carry a weight exceeding 18,000 pounds. The legal weight will be determined by measuring the width of both tires on the front wheels and multiplying the number of inches by 700. The procedure will be similar for the rear wheels. An example. Snook pointed out that it might be possible for a four-wheel vehicle to be under the 22,000 maximum in the law but still be improperly loaded, as the maximum of 18,000 pounds on one axle might be exceeded.

"We wish to acquaint all new motorists in this vicinity with Western Auto economies," says J. J. Hunt, local manager, and want every car owner to realize the values that make Western Auto stores motoring headquarters for more than six million car owners annually. With each purchase of one of these selected items, the buyer will be given an extra one without cost. This is not a special lot of goods purchased for a sale, but is taken from our regular stock, which is the motorist's guarantee of satisfaction. "We feel that it is more than worth the loss we are taking in this unparalleled offer, to acquaint new customers with one everyday value offered at Western Auto and to introduce them the many products sold by our company. Future sales will more than repay us." Many articles such as steep plates, spices and polish and cleaner are usually purchased in pairs, and we believe that it will make a decided hit with the motorist when he finds that by Recorder Miss Ruby Cameron, Santa Ana, chief deputy; Mrs. Bannon Van Dusen, Santa Ana and Miss Nance Hezcullanich, Fulcheron, deputies.

In checking speeding cases officers have been given instructions to follow Section 118 of the motor vehicle act. This section provides a maximum speed of 20 miles an hour for trucks with pneumatic tires of a gross weight exceeding 16,000 pounds. For trucks equipped with solid tires the limit for a gross weight of from 9,000 to 12,000 pounds is 25 miles an hour; for a gross weight of 12,000 to 22,000 pounds, 15 miles an hour and above 22,000, 10 miles an hour. The latter speed applies of course only to vehicles with more than four wheels. One of the first acts of Governor Young after assuming office was to ask that arrangements be made for hte pro-purchasing one article, the Western Auto Supply Company will make him a present of another without cost. Other articles such as Springeez dust cloths and patchin goutfits are in regular demand and an additional supply at no cost will be welcomed.
