Want Appropriation For Publicity Work
Southern Seas Club Asks Supervisors for Donation
Meeting at the Southern Seas Club at Balboa, Monday night, the South Coast Association voted to the board of supervisors recommendation that an appropriation of $2500 be made to the Pacific Highway Association to assist the latter organization in its publicity program for stimulating travel up and down the Pacific coast.
A committee was named by Second Vice-President H. C. Sloan of Balboa, to go before the board of supervisors and urge the appropriation, the personnel of the committee being M. De Ahna, Laguna Beach; Sam Meyers, Newport Beach; K. I. Fulton, Corona Del Mar; J. D. Tracy, Laguna Beach, and the Rev. Father John O'Sullivan, Capistrano.
Action of the association followed an address by Harry Mayne of San Francisco, secretary of the Pacific Highway Association, in which the purposes of the organization were presented. Cooperation of all the counties through which the Pacific highway system passes is the objective of the association, and in its short life it has made big progress in the development of funds and in advertising the sections on the highway.
Mayne pointed out that by the preparation and distribution of proper literature, travel along the coast could be materially increased, with resultant benefit to the districts co-operating in financial support of the association.
Attention was directed to the fact that in its literature and highway maps the association in the past has carried complete information about Orange county highways without the county in any way contributing to the association.
Mayne estimated that the association would need between $100,000 and $125,-000 annually to carry out its complete program, and no county that had been asked to co-operate in financing the program had complied with the request. Los Angeles county supervisors have been asked for an appropriation of
Grand Jurors File Report on Jail

is one of those matters with which a Sheriff should keep in close touch and upon which there should be intelligent, experienced, and constant instruction.
"We think an entirely different rule should prevail in the case of prisoners who have been searched, disarmed, and are confined within the County Jail. Jailers or deputy sheriffs who consider themselves warranted in striking, slapping or otherwise physically attacking a defenseless prisoner so confined in the jail because of oral abuse directed to them by such prisoner, without any threat or offer of physical attack, should be promptly relieved from further jubilee service in Orange County, there being other and more humane means of subduing unruily prisoners. While according to our understanding, the drinking of intoxicating liquor constitutes no technically legal violation of the law of California, the conclusion is inescapable, that such an action contributes to the criminality of others, and it is especially offensive on the part of officers clothed with both the honor and responsibility of enforcing the laws. The painstaking efforts made by officers in their testimony before us to have us understand the sharp discrimination they draw in their personal habits, as to the use of liquor while on duty and off duty, has not been inspiring, and we further recommend that the services of any, and all subordinates of the Sheriff's office be permanently dispensed with who will not sincerely and wholeheartedly abstain from the use of intoxicating liquors.
From the facts adduced at the hearing, it is the opinion of the Jurors that the following men should be discharged, and it is the recommendation of this Jury that they be discharged:
"Orlo Moncrief; Clyde Flowers."
Whatever else may be left in doubt as to the result of the confusing and contradictory mass of evidence before us, liquor as usual, stands out prominently as a major contributing cause of all the trouble we have investigated, and we believe that the sheriff will be diligence on secure for men who do truer care and serious seems to us of those who surround us.

"We are that he most The test on infrequent."
Attention was directed to the fact that in its literature and highway maps the association in the past has carried complete information about Orange county highways without the county in any way contributing to the association.
Mayne estimated that the association would need between $100,000 and $125,000 annually to carry out its complete program, and no county that had been asked to co-operate in financing the program had complied with the request. Los Angeles county supervisors have been asked for an appropriation of $10,000, and he said it was anticipated such an appropriation would be made.
Among those who expressed themselves in approval of the program of publicity as outlined by Mayne were: Dr. Conrad Richter, mayor of Newport Beach; V. D. Johnson, secretary of the Chamber of Commerce at Orange; Elmer Jahraus, Laguna, who made the motion of recommendation; Dr. F. W. Slabaugh, county purchasing agent; E. M. De Ahn, Lagune Beach; Horace Fine, of the Register staff; Sam Meyer of the Newport Beach News; K. I. Fulton, of Corona Del Mar, and Norman Robotham, secretary of the coast association.
Supervisors George Jeffrey and John Mitchell were present, but did not commit themselves.
Harry L. Wells, former newspaperman, credited with origination and preparation of the artistic and informative folder printed by the association, made a brief address, in which he pointed out the value of tourists to California and dhe various communities of the state, citing Los Angeles as profiting by $162,000,000 annually, by the influx of tourists. He declared that in a count of out-of-state cars made by him in August of last year, as he traversed the highways of the state, he found the ratio of foreign cars to one to eight cars carrying California license plates. The count, he said, was made on county and state highways and not on city streets.
Andy Mandry, of Cost Mesa, entertained the group with a number of vocal solos, singing with piano accompaniment.
Norman Robotham declared that traffic over the new coast highway has increased tremendously. He asserted that a count had revealed that during weekends 1400 cars per hour pass over the road.
Governor to Attend River Conference
Governor Young has ordered postponement of the first meeting of his newly organized "governor's council" of nine department heads, from August 25 to 29.
The delay was occasioned by the governor's acceptance of an invitation of governors of Utah, Colorado, Nevada, and New Mexico, comprising the upper basin states of the Colorado river, for a conference August 22 in Denver, to arbitrate differences over Colorado river development.
Governor Young will leave Sacra-wholeheartedly abstain from the use of intoxicating liquors.

Whatever else may be left in doubt as to the result of the confusing and contradictory mass of evidence before us, liquor as usual stands out prominently as a major contributing cause of all the trouble we have investigated, and we believe that the sheriff will be wise, both in his interest and that of the people of Orange county, if in future he will surround himself with men who have an appreciation of the full import of their habits and conduct and of the duties they are called on to discharge. We furthermore believe that

River Conference
Governor Young has ordered postponement of the first meeting of his newly organized "governor's council" of nine department heads, from August 25 to 29.
The delay was occasioned by the governor's acceptance of an invitation of governors of Utah, Colorado, Nevada, and New Mexico, comprising the upper basin states of the Colorado river, for a conference August 22 in Denver, to arbitrate differences over Colorado river development.
Governor Young will leave Sacramento Friday or Saturday, accompanied by William J. Carr, of Los Angeles, newly appointed member of the state railroad commission, and one of the best informed men in the state on matters of Colorado river development. It was announced at the governor's office.
It is expected that the governor will be accompanied by a large retinue of Boulder dam enthusiasts, although the conference is primarily for the governors of the seven states only. However, each governor has the privilege of inviting his own Colorado river committee and such technicians as he will need during the conference.
Those who get high production follow certain fundamentals in chicken feeding. One of the most important is regularity. And the feed must be palatable. The cost per pound can often be reduced by using locally produced grains. Another factor of importance is the effect of the feed on the eggs or meat. Yellow corn will produce a darker colored egg yolk than white corn. Alfalfa tends to produce yolks with dark yellow color, whereas wheat and oats tend to produce light-colored yolks. Feed may also affect the flavor of the eggs.

"We find that the inability of persons who have been arrested for misdemeanors, and confined in the county jail, to communicate with or advise their family of their whereabouts, has justly provoked much indignation and ill-feeling towards the management at the jail. We fully appreciate there are good and sufficient reasons why the use of the telephone may and should be generally denied to inmates of the county jail, but irrespective of what may or may not be the legal requirements on this matter this grand jury is of the deliberate judgment that neither the present nor any future sheriff of Orange county can entertain even a remote hope of satisfying as intelligent and enlightened a citizenry as that of Orange county without the establishment and observance of a rule by which upon simple request, any prisoner confined for misdemeanor may have his relatives advised where he is. That an otherwise reputable and respected citizen may upon being taken to the jail for some misdemeanor, find himself helpless to communicate with his own family is intolerable.
"There is no evidence of a convincing character supporting the charge of immoral conduct in the jail. Owing to the defective construction of a ventilator shaft leading from the kitchen to the quarters of the female prisoners, some male prisoners succeeded in removing the grattlings at the end of this shaft and crawled through it to the corridor of the female section. The evidence shows that this condition was promptly and effectively corrected when discovered.
"The evidence discloses the fact that the jail was at times infested with bedbugs and cockroaches, but that the jail management used every effort at their disposal to keep these pests under control.
"We are convinced from the evidence that the handling of the mail was for the most part satisfactory and proper.
"The testimony clearly indicates that on infrequent occasions the food has for feeding prisoners, according to his contract with the board of supervisors, with the county paying for all fuel, water and equipment, and with all the labor, including the cooking being done by the prisoners. This necessarily means that at times the food is prepared by a man who has had no previous experience in cooking.
"The evidence before us does not support the sensational charges made concerning the food, and we are of the opinion from the preponderance of evidence adduced that the meals generally have been about as good as may be reasonably expected under the system prevailing, except that more fresh vegetables should be provided to afford a better balanced ration.
"We have grave doubts, however, of the soundness of any system of feeding prisoners which creates a direct incentive to any sheriff to cheapen the meals served, as does the system now prevailing in Orange county. We therefore recommend that the board of supervisors earnestly consider the practicality of cancellating the existing feeding contract and the substitution of a plan whereby all food supplies for the county jail be provided through the county purchasing department on the requisition of a regularly employed chef of experience and capability, and assured integrity, under whose supervision and direction the meals would be prepared and served by the trusty prisoners."
Since upon the board of supervisors rests the primary responsibility of providing food for the prisoners, we recommend that, regardless of what system of feeding prisoners may hereafter be adopted or exist, the board establish and maintain a closer touch with all matters and things pertaining to the jail food supply."

LEGION NOTES
Expenditure of more than $20,000 in child welfare work by the various units of the American Legion Women's Auxiliary as a part of a state-wide program during the coming months has been announced by Mrs. Ethel Hearst of Los Angeles, the newly-elected head of the women's branch of the World war veterans' organization. Child welfare work is to constitute the major feature of the auxiliary's program, according to Mrs. Hearst.
Mrs. Eliza London Shepard, sister of the late Jack London and a former national head of the Women's Auxiliary, has been instructed by the California department of the organization to ask the delegates to the coming Paris, France, national convention of the American Legion to set aside that part of the $400,000 fund recently raised in this state for the American Legion's endowment fund for the work of the California units of the Women's Auxiliary.
California members of the American Legion will decorate the graves of all Californians who lost their lives in the World war and who are buried in American cemeteries abroad "during their coming tour in Europe as members of the delegation from this state to the national convention of the Legion to be held next month in Paris, France, according to State Commander Philip S. Dodson of South Pasadena.

Milk is one of the most complete and easily digested foods for chickens. Besides its food value, it is also a great appetizer. When chickens are fed milk, they eat more other feed. Milk also serves as a regulator of the chickens' digestive systems and tends to keep them in good condition.
