Many Large Permits to Be Issued Here Shortly
Anaheim continues to lead all Orange-co cities in total of building permits for 1921 to date.
While Santa Ana's building permit total for the year to date has just passed the $100,000 mark this week. Anaheim's total is crowding the $150,000 mark. To be exact, total local permits including those authorized by city council last night, aggregate $147,770.
Fullerton and Orange are trailing behind Santa Ana.
That Anaheim's flattering record is not a flash in the pan is evidenced by the fact that a number of large building permits will be taken out in the next few days or weeks, in addition to the regular weekly grist of residences and others of comparatively small figures.
Large construction for which permits will be taken out shortly include George Dunton's largest garage in Orange-co; two buildings for Sam Kraemer on So. Los Angeles-st, one for three or four stories; extensive alterations to the Kroeger-bldg recently purchased by Bever & Wilson; 150-room Clark apartment house on West Center-st; $25,000 rooming house by Manford Gardner on No Lemon-st; $50,000 commuting.

He has not spoken a rational word since taken to the hospital; tho there are times when he appears conscious unsafear that he draws back if one places a hand near his face. He has taken neither food nor water.
His mother who was very much overcome tried hard to get him to speak to her but without avail.

TOURIST PICNIC
Resume Fight for Free Tolls In Legislature
Orange-co farm bureau directors,
in session at Santa Ana today,
resumed from a new angle the movement for a mutually operated phone system affording tolls throut the county.
The plan is to have the legislature adopt an amendment to the state telephone and telegraph law permitting formation of cooperative companies.

Altho a franchise was obtained for a mutual system under the name of the Orange-co Farmers & Merchants Asan., the authority for going ahead with such a system has been questioned and a test case to determine the legality is now pending in the higher courts.
The farm bureau directors referred the matter to the legislative committee composed of H. B. Woodrough, W. D. Johnson and J. A. Smiley, with instructions to obtain action at the present session.
