ASSERT AUTO LINES INCREASING TAXES SACRANENTO, Calif., Aug. 11.—How an increasing burden is the result of tax free operation of commercial automobile lines upon California state highways was explained by R. E. Kelly, representative of the So. Pacific Co.'s executive department, to a public meeting called by the United C. of C. of the Sacramento Valley here today. The meeting was held primarily for the benefit of a committee of five appointed by the United C. of C. to determine the best possible freight and passenger service for the communities of the valley. This committee is composed of A. S. Dudley, Sacramento, chairman; W. Boucher, Oroville; Fred Shafer, Woodland; D. Evans, Redding, and F. W. Leavitt. The memorandum presented by Mr. Kelly follows: "The railroads contend that it is unfair to permit motor transportation lines to operate automobiles virtually free on the state highways, toward the construction of which the railroads have contributed large sums of money. "A recognized function of the government is to coordinate and safeguard all transportation agencies. Discrimination in favor of any one agency is against public policy and welfare. "It should be clearly understood that the railroads do not oppose the building of highways, nor the use of such highways for motor transportation lines. But the railroads rightfully insist that their competitors, given the use of such roadbed facilities as a subsidy from the government should pay proportionate taxes. "Take the case in California, revenues received by this state in its 1919-1920 fiscal year general fund totalled $26,161,154.08. The tax levy on the railroads, including street and electric railways, applicable to state revenues of 1919-1920 was $8,943,735, or 34.187 per cent of the gener-" TEXAN WILL ERECT TWO-STORY BLOCK (Continued from Page 1) cupied by himself and family and the other by his brother, Sol Uhler, and family. Uhler had first intended to erect another theatre on the Miller property, but when he received an offer from Head & Ingram on the Fairryland and Grand, he changed his plans and will erect a business block instead. M. Eugene Durree, Anaheim architect, is now at work on the plans and specifications and construction will start within a few days. Bever & Wilson have moved a tool house onto the lot and the baseball concession now occupying the lot has been notified to remove at once. The building will be two-story with attractive front, covering the entire lot, 40x141½". There will be two storerooms downstairs which have already been leased and 22 hotel rooms upstairs. The walls will be made strong enough to support a third floor. Uhler is strong in his praise or Messrs. G. M. Simpson and C. C. Randall, of the Simpson Realty Co., who have worked unitingly in their efforts to put thru the various and complicated deals which promise such far-reaching effect on the amusement and business life of the city. Uhler also has driven the legal firm of Ames & McFadden for three days and a good part of three nights in pushing thru the various legal phases of his transactions.

CLEAN STUDEBAKERS Sanitary Dye Works gave Harry Riley's Studebakers a good cleaning last night, taking two games due to some fine shooting by Al Schultz who knocked down 233 for high score of the night, and had 206 for an average. R. G. Adam's Hudson-Essexs were running in low gear and were soundly trimmed by Schneider's Market. The butchers had their knives sharpened and won all three games. Hefforn, subbing for Schneider's star, Koonz, rolled high score of 224 and 193 average. The defeat was particularly disappointing to Manager Dick Logeifel who is responsible for the Super Six lineup that couldn't make the grades last night. Until the clast Captain Logeifel had felt he was leading a very promising team and hadn't been averse to disclosing his hopes to anyone who would pause and listen to him. It is not known who has been most—old Man Adam of Bugs Raymond, the pair on whom he pinned his hopes. The score: SCHNEIDER'S MARKET— M. Varnor ... 184 169 147 500 Cordes ... 171 149 159 475 W.

Phone 326-W (THE I A Modern Hom Care of O Gertrude Grad 1107 Lincoln M M.EUGE "Freight and passenger hauls by auto trucks and auto stages show large increases, much of which business parallels and competes with the same haul by electric and steam railroads; again reducing the state revenue to the extent of 5-14 per cent of sums thus diverted from those carriers. "A conservative estimate based upon information which at best is very incomplete, shows that the state's annual loss in revenue from such diversions runs into large sums." "The 1920 receipts of 357 motor vehicles transportation lines in California were $8,567,001.27, according to reports filed with the railroad commission up to July 20, 1921. On that date 220 had not yet filed reports. It is difficult to determine how much the receipts of railroads have been reduced by auto competition, but of such sum 5-14 per cent under the old tax law and 7 per cent under the King bill is the loss in taxes to the state. Efforts to justify the government's present subsidy of paved highways to commercial automobile lines have led some to refer to land grants made to railroads in early days. Land then, almost entirely worthless, was granted to encourage the railroads in their hazardous undertaking of blazing trails through the wilderness. At their own risk the railroads developed great sweeps of territory and incidentally made the long granted to them of some value. On the other hand, motor vehicle transportation lines are operated largely over routes parallelling railroads and in regions already built up by the railroads. The gift of free use highways as roadbeds offers no incentive to such automobile lines for movement of new areas, but entails competition with establishment lines in well-developed areas."

PAVING PROGRAM IS LOOMING LARGE By the time the city engineering department gets ready to pave Chartress st. from Olive to Palm-sts this fall, it is probable that an extensive improvement campaign of this character will be lined up. Last night Councilman F. A. Backs announced residents of the Zeyn-tract were anxious to see the streets there paved at once. They want Zeyn-st paved from Sycamore-st to the state highway, a distance of more than half a mile. They also want paving on the cross streets, Sycamore, Alberta and Wilhelmina, from Lemon to Los Angeles-sts. Council instructed City Manager O. E. Stewart to proceed with the laying of four-inch cast iron water pipe as soon as possible so there would be no need ofearing up paving. The city is also planning to pave the alley back of the Anaheim Orange & Lemon Packing house, the one back of the California theater and the one back of the city hall site. A movement is also under way for the pavement of Palm-st from Broadway to the state highway on the north. What is abused so often and so grimfully as the English language... City Briefs Mrs. A. H.
