The Federal Business Association of Los Angeles is an organization established under the federal budget law adopted by congress several years ago with a view to co-ordinating the work of the various governmental branches, thus promoting efficiency and reducing costs. The organization is composed of the heads or principle assistants of all governmental establishments in Southern California. Recently, through the efforts of Frank S. Finley, secretary, the organization inaugurated a series of weekly radio talks which should not only prove interesting but of educational value to all who hear them. These talks which are broadcast each Thursday evening from Los Angeles through the courtesy of radio station KFI, between 5:50 and 6:00 o'clock, are known as "Ten Minute With Your Government." The interest already manifested is amazing and indicates that a large percentage of the citizens know little or nothing of the workings of the various branches of the greatest and best government in the world, their own United States of America. From these talks they will be enabled to gain a first-hand knowledge with a personal touch, as each talk will be given by the official in charge of his respective bureau or department. The radio talks were started February 9, with an outline of the Federal Business Association, by Frank S. Finley, secretary, followed by Galen H. Welch, collector of internal revenue, and president of the association. P. P. O'Brien, postmaster, Los Angeles; James H. Smiley, district manager, bureau of foreign and domestic commerce; Major Frank R. McReynolds, prohibition administrator, and H. H. Hunt, senior forest ranger. The following schedule for future talks has been arranged: Tonight—Walter E. Carr, district director, Immigration Service. March 29—Commander W. W. Waddell, United States Navy. April 5—Charles T. Connell, United States commissioner of conciliation, Department of Labor. April 12—J. A. LeRoy, supervisor grain economics, Department of Agriculture. TIMOROUS "AL" The inevitable has happened. The Democratic voters who for months have been extolling "Al" Smith as an oracle of wisdom and an idealistic godhead, have discovered he has feet of clay. Throughout the country, the Democratic and super-intellectual weeklies, which for months had been printing panegyrics on New York's East Side boy, are beginning to adopt an inquisitive and querulous tone. Admitting that Commenting on these new appointments, Mr. Miller said: "The election of Mr. Ballard to the presidency is a well deserved recognition of his great services to the company and is a move designed to increase his efficiency and usefulness, not only to the corporation, but the community. "I shall take the same keen interest in the company's affairs that I have for thirty years," said Mr. Miller, and shall continue to devote myself particularly to the company's finances, its welfare work and to its general policy. Under the new conditions, however, I shall be able to view the company's operations from a somewhat broader viewpoint. "Mr. Ward, who succeeds Mr. Ballard as executive vice-president, has been with the company and with the Pacific Light and Power Corporation, which the Edison company took over, since 1911 and is an engineer and utility operator of national repute. "In 1890 Ballard began his career with the electrical industry as office boy with the Thomson-Houston Electric Company of Chicago, the predecessor of the General Electric Company." Mr. Miller said. "For three years he supplemented his training in this organization with diligent work at night school and when his firm was absorbed by the General Electric Company, in 1894. Ballard was transferred to the treasury department in the general offices in Schenectady and later was sent out to a number of its branches throughout the East and South, becoming intimately acquainted with its financial problems, as well as acquiring a general working knowledge of the light and power business. "Thirty-one years ago he came to California and was engaged as auditor by the Westside Lighting Company, to which the present Southern California Edison Company traces its source. With the exception of a short interval when he served the Butte Electric Company in Montana, Ballard's service with the Edison company has been uninterrupted. As California grew, the Southern California Edison Company grew and Ballard, by intensive study and hard work, kept pace with both. "Since 1820 he has held the position of general manager and since 1924 has served as executive vice-president and general manager. He has participated in many of the negotiations contributing to the successful expansion of the company. "In recognition of his services to the electrical industry, he has been a president of the Pacific Coast Electrical Association, president of the National Electric Light Association, and is continuing as chairman of the national public policy committee. He is a member of the Franklin Institute of Philadelphia, an honor bestowed by the directors of the institute for distinctive service."

The Democratic voters who for months have been extolling "Al" Smith as an oracle of wisdom and an idealistic godhead, have discovered he has feet of clay. Throughout the country, the Democratic and super-intellectual weeklies, which for months had been printing panegyrics on New York's East Side boy, are beginning to adopt an inquisitive and querulous tone. Admitting that Governor "Al" is a big man, they are calling on him to prove it. Admitting he is a great thinker, they are asking for word revelations as to what his thoughts amount to. Admitting that his administration of the gubernatorial office has been most satisfactory, they are calling on him for declarations as to his plans for a national administration. There has been introduced a new line of doubt and indecision as to his capacity and capabilities as a presidential nominee. This is wholly apart from his religious, racial or past political affiliations. The wets are far from satisfied with his declaration on the prohibition amendment, and while some of his friends have explained that inasmuch as he had the wet vote anyway, that it was good policy to pussyfoot with the drys. It has enraged the influential wets who refuse to accept this explanation. There is complaint that the governor has got into the habit of explaining his explanations. Last fall he stopped his questioners on national topics by saying he could not speak until the New York legislature met. Now he is meeting the newest demand for declarations by saying that he cannot speak until he legislature adjourns. It is feared that when that happens, he is apt to present his third excuse; namely, that he cannot speak until the Democratic convention meets. The "Al" Smith vogue, which may be a light phrase with which to define a great popular demonstration, was developed largely through the belief that the governor, while a politician, In recognition of his services to the electrical industry, he has been a president of the Pacific Coast Electrical Association, president of the National Electric Light Association, and continuing as chairman of the national public policy committee. He is a member of the Franklin Institute of Philadelphia, an honor bestowed by the directors of the institute for distinctive service. LOSS BY INSECTS Scientists of the Department of Agriculture recently estimated the annual loss in the United States due to insects at 10 per cent of the value of the crops they infest. This would amount to slightly more than $1,000,000,000. It is probable that $100,000,000 is a low estimate of the insect damage to livestock, and another $100,000,000 minimum of injury is inflicted on the forests. Insect damage to clothes, carpets, furniture, and fabrics, together with losses due to insect activity in stored products would probably amount to fully $200,000,000. Economic loss follows the illness of human beings caused by insects. The total bill is probably not much, if any, short of $2,000,000,000 a year. It would be much greater but for the constant warfare waged by entomologists in directing and chemical manufacturers in supplying the munitions, and thousands of farmers, housewives and industrial workers in the actual application of control measures. The stingiest man we know of is the fellow who tried to save a match by lighting his cigarette from the illuminated dial of his wrist watch. possessed a rugged personality which stood forth independently and in favor of the common people. His systematic evasions, his attempted juggling and balancing on such issues as he has allowed himself to discuss, are destroying the "Al" Smith ideal. He is being revealed as one of the common Democratic brood to whom the pursuit of votes is more interesting than the achievement of ideals. Buena Park Notes (By MRS. J. P. BOBISON) A baby daughter was born early Saturday morning to Mr. and Mrs. Edmond Graelwski. Mrs. Graelwski was Miss Eunice Mann.

Duck Hospital at Buena Vista Lake Progressive Step Taken Toward Preservation of Wild Life The latest innovation of the division of fish and game of the Department of Natural Resources is the installation of a "duck hospital" on Buena Vista lake, one of the favorite haunts of ducks, which is located between Taft and Bakerfield, in Kern county. This was made necessary due to a mysterious malady, which has been a menace to ducks for some time. Following an exhaustive investigation of the disease by the research bureau of the division, through the cooperation of Dr. K. F. Meyer of the Hooper Foundation for Medical Research of the University of California, "Milt" S. Clark, assistant chief of patrol for the northern district, and Captain Ed Smalley of the southern San Joaquin patrol district, moved on the lake with Deputies Arnold, Ainsworth and Ellis and took immediate steps to catch all of the ducks that appeared to be affected. Many were found that had been wounded by hunters, while many more were affected by the malady which first affects the use of the birds' wings and legs, followed by the dropping of the head, and the ducks will drown themselves if not rescued. The fish and game officers located the "hospital" a few miles from the lake, where a supply of fresh water was available, and here in a large enclosed pen, screened overhead to keep the ducks in, the sick birds being carefully tended, given fresh water and different food. It has been found that the ducks will show rapid recovery when taken from the affected area and given a change of water and food. All of the birds will be carefully watched and, when able to fly, will be banded with biological survey markers and liberated. This work has been undertaken as a conservation measure to save all of the ducks possible, as well as to determine the cause of the disease and take whatever possible measures that can be discovered to eliminate it or at least furnish relief. attempt to conserve these birds as a part of the present program of progressive conservation and protection of game and fish," Eugene D. Bennett, executive officer and attorney for the division, declared, after looking over the reports of the duck investigation and relief work submitted by Assistant Chief Clark and Roy Ludlum, in charge of the research bureau.
