NATIONAL DRIVE TO BAN TAX ON FARE LOS ANGELES July 29 — A movement national in scope, to eliminate the war tax from interurban electric line fares, which would materially reduce the price of these transportation tickets, has been started in Los Angeles.

I don't believe the fire hydrants have been flushed this summer. The result is that the water is getting bad and if something isn't done we're apt to notice a lot of sickness." Hamler refers the above to the council and fire department. To citizens, he suggests a mighty good thing would be a night watchman in the residence districts and a merchant police in the business district. "Whenever I spend the night with friends in Hollywood, I leave my car on the driveway beside the house. The next morning I always find in the car a printed card reading like this: 'This property is being guarded by the Nick Harris police.' Third and Normandie, Home 56355." "A large number of people in the residential districts pay $1 per mo. for such service and it is the best protection against petit thievery I know of.
