R.R. Commission Says Anaheim Morally Responsible To Lemon-St. Mexicans
City council last night received a letter from the R. R. commission on the complaint of the Mexican colony at the head of North Lemon-st against alleged inadequate and unsatisfactory water supply provided by W. S. B. Lawrie. The burden of the letter is that Lawrie is too old and hasn't the finances nor inclination to proceed with the water supply for the colony and that it would be a happy solution should Anaheim take over the burden.
This council shied away from and instructed City Manager O. E. Steward to reply to the R. R. commission referring the job to county supervisors.
The letter follows:
"This commission has before it a formal complaint from a number of the residents of what is known as the Mary Goodman, Hart and Anaheim Home tracts adjacent to the city of Anaheim, directed against W. S. B. Lawrie, alleging unsatisfactory water service.
This complaint has been investigated by our engineering department and a public hearing has been held but no decision has as yet been issued in the matter. From the evidence it appears that the condition of the system operated by Mr. Lawrie is such that satisfactory service is very unlikely. It also appears that the distributing pipes thru which service is furnished to residents, of the above tracts are not, the property of Mr. Lawrie. Altho he has been utilizing these pipes for some time, his responsibility for the upkeep of same is not clearly defined. It seems that there has been some difficulty in the past in maintaining these pipes in a satisfactory condition. Further it appears that Mr. Lawrie's financial condition makes it difficult, if not impossible for him to incur the necessary expenses."

Garbage Collection Up When Pork Drops
What has the price of hogs to do with Anaheim's tax budget?
Considerable, according to a report by City Manager O. E. Steward to city council last night that since pork had dropped is was no longer possible to get Anaheim's garbage collected for nothing, let alone making anything out of the privilege.
The Bastanchury ranch has been collecting garbage but has announced that it will cease Oct. 1. It offers $50 per month for the garbage after it is collected. Advertising has failed to bring out any bidders.
City Manager Steward suggested the city buy a two-ton truck and trailer and some large metal cans which can be skidded onto a platform when filled. These would have sanitary covers. The truck and trailer could also pick up cans and other refuse.

Experiment With Oil Sand As Road Paving
Experiments are being made by T. B. Talbert, chairman of county supervisors, and the city engineer of Huntington Beach in the use of oil sands brot from wells in the Huntington Beach field as a road material, those officials announced today.
While the sand is mucky when first put on, it is believed the oil will work into the roadway and form a good oiled road. Oil companies, facing the problem of disposing of large accumulations, are willing to load it onto county trucks free of charge. The experiments are being made on dirt roads around the beach city.

"NURSING UNION"
HINDERS PURPOSE
NEW YORK, Sept. 23. — Dr. Charles H. Mayo, of the Mayo clinic at Rochester, Minn., says "the nursing union has come to be the most autocratic closed shop in the country."
In an interview in the Pictorial Review in which he calls for 100-000 sub-nurses to relieve the acute shortage, Dr. Mayo charges that the leaders of organized nursing "have carried their methods too far and with too high a hand, and in doing this have defeated their own purpose for they have lost sight of the real impulse of their profession."

HEAVY TAXES IN EUROPE
"I'll never kick again about payment of taxes," was the declaration today of Dr. W. L. Bigham, who returned last night with Dr. Harriet Bigham from a three-months' European tour thru the British Isles, Belgium, France, Germany, Holland, Switzerland and Italy. They sailed and returned via Montreal. Going east they took the southern trip thru New Orleans, Washington, New York. They returned thru Canada to Niagra Falls, Chicago and Grand Canyon.
"In Europe, taxes are more oppressive than we can imagine here. Particularly is this true in England. We don't know what it is to pay taxes here. I was told that a fairly well-to-do person there must pay from 80 to 90 cents out of every dollar he earns.
"Belgium is not the bleeding rose we had pictured. Very soon there will be little of devastated Belgium left, because the Belgians are hard at work as are also the people of Germany.
"France, England and Italy have the same labor unrest that we have here. I heard business men complain they didn't mind paying the wages if the work was turned out.
The Drs. Bigham visited hospitals and clinics in a number of large cities in Europe but found them lacking in equipment of American institutions. Over there, when a poor person is sick he is sent to the hospital, a charitable institution. A rich man is cared for at his home or the private retreat of his doctor, said Dr. Bigham.

This public display is intended to give the public an opportunity to make suggestions or criticisms before the council orders the architects to make the permanent plan. The council will meet-in adjourned session, Monday, Oct. 3, to determine on final instructions to the architects.
Accompanying the drawing the architects last night submitted the following explanatory report:
To the Honorable Board of Trustees,
City of Anaheim, Cal.
Gentlemen:
In submitting our Preliminary Plan 1030-5, Scale 40 feet to one inch, for the City Park in Anaheim, comprising some twenty acres, we now lay before your Board this report to make clear the intent of our plan as a comprehensive programme for your park development.
When presenting the several Preliminary Studies, we pointed out to you using reasons for locating the several large areas such as Ornamental Section, Auto Park, Plan, Open Air Gymnasiums) in particular locations, and covered in a general survey the problem of your park development.
We will therefore not repeat these reasons in this report.
Our Prairie Flats incorporates those changes and additional sections from numerous discussions with your Board, and we believe the scheme as now outlined by our plan will measure up to a very high standard of scientific park design.
(1) Paths and Circulation.
In a recreation and playground park such as is here proposed, to be used by old and young, with many activities and diversions contemplated, the scheme of paths and the circulation within the park is a matter of utmost importance. North and South walks across the area provide opportunities to give direct connection between West Cypress St. and West Sycamore St. The Main Building Group, Music Court and Dancing Patio, into all of which many people will congregate at certain times with commodious and direct paths for appropriate future. The Swimming Pool Head House is centrally located to the Athletic Field, Gymnasiums and Tennis Courts; and is readily approached from outside the park by fairly direct paths in all directions from the entrance of the Park from the Northeast or southwest nera, a choice of interesting paths is presented either directly to the Dancing Patio and Pergola overlooking the Swimming Pool, or into The Greeting with its welcoming seats between the North and South sections in the Ornamental Section in the Northeast part of Park and, by a curving path in the Southern part, visitors would reach the Tennis Courts, Little Childrens Lawn, Gymnasiums and Bleachers overlooking the Athletic Field. Straight paths bounding Athletic Fields give good communication between the Ornamental Section in the Northeast part of Park and, by a curving path in the Southern part, visitors would reach the Tennis Courts, Little Childrens Lawn, Gymnasiums and Bleachers overlooking the Athletic Field. Straight paths bounding Athletic Fields give good communication between the Ornamental Section in the Northeast part of Park and, by a curving path in the Southern part, visitors would reach the Tennis Courts, Little Childrens Lawn, Gymnasiums and Bleachers overlooking the Athletic Field.
(2) The Greeling.
To visitors especially first impression should be given "The Greeting," almost six hundred feet in length, with its central panel of lawn flanked by trees, walks and seats and terminal features of interest at either end, we have called for something that cannot but be impressive as considerable space for games on the lawn.
(7) Little Children's Lawns.
Two lawns for little children are provided, one for very small children to be furnished with sand piles, teeters, swings, merry-go-rounds, wading pool and a rest house with toilet; another for larger children with giant strides and other suitable apparatus while leaving a considerable space for games on the lawn.

Section on the North, Swimming Pool on the East, The Open Air Gymnasiums on the South, The Picnic Grove on the West and if desired the Sea Field and the Auto Park on the Southwest. In the Ornamental Section a somewhat meandering scheme of paths will tend to keep these paths free from congestion, inasmuch as the logical cross cuts are already provided for.
(2) The Greeting.
To visitors especially first impressions are often the most lasting and in "The Greeting," almost six hundred feet in length, with its central panel of lawn flanked by trees, walks and seats and terminal features of interest at either end. we have called for some time now that but what lies beyond. Whether one enters the park from North Lemon St. from the corners of the property or at the center where a long narrow pool set flush with a panel of lawn is suggested, the extent park-like gateway to what lies beyond. Whether one enters the park from North Lemon St. from the corners of the property or at the center where a long narrow pool set flush with a panel of lawn is suggested, the extent park-like gateway to what lies beyond.
(3) Main Building Group.
This group of two long narrow buildings connected by an Arcade, the whole to be of Spanish influence, lies on the axis West Addit St. extended, and last back 160 feet from North St. The Arcade is reached by three easy risers having at its Southern end the Assembly Hall, and to the North the Lobby and Park Offices. The wings would provide several rooms for the Elastic Nurse, Boy Scout activities Band Room, Heavenly Bathroom and toilet facilities. The western facade of these wings would be arcaded, while in the center of the group a large paved Terrace embellished with tub plants would overlook the Music Court and Stage, allowing for views through the surrounding Pergolas and a vista of the Mountainous Sanctuary Head House. The Pergola treatment would be of concrete columns (right cast) with Eusalyptus rafters upon which vines would be trained.
(4) Music Court and Stage.
The Music Court with its rows of fixed seats, clean gravel floor and formally trimmed trees would allow upward movement from the steps at the Terrace to the two inconspicuous flights of steps leading up to the Stage. The Stage would be elevated at least 3 feet and behind it a drop curtain could be lowered for open air concerts in the Music Court, or raised for dancing in the Patio.
The octogonal shaped terminals for the flanking pergolas could be curtained as dressing rooms in case of theatrical performances.
The Music Court would also be arranged so that open air moving picture shows could be given and the seating capacity of this Music Court estimated at over two thousand, thereby making this Court entirely suitable for holding of conventions.
(5) The Dancing Patio.
The Dancing Patio would be paved for dancing with seats arranged under the Pergolas, and the whole so illuminated as to make an effective display at night.
(7) Little Children's Lawns.
Two lawns for little children are provided, the one for very small children to be furnished with sand piles, stairs, mats and a rest room with toilet; the other, for larger children with giants strides and other suitable apparatus while leaving a considerable space for games on the lawn.
(8) Lawn Games.
At various points in the open lawns on the park, lawn bowls, clock golf, and croquet are located playing games that do not require unsightly equipment and yet furnish recreation to those who desire the quieter forms of sport. To the South of the Dancing Patio a sagged Roof Court now rapidly growing in popularity is located.
(9) Tennis Court Area.
An area of concrete or gravel surrounded for four tennis courts whose long axia will lie North and South, the ideal orientation. The tennis court area will be enclosed by a high wire netting fence and narrow shelters with seats will be placed on the East and West sides of this area to accommodate those speller awaiting their turn.
(10) Open Air Gymnasiums
More than an acre is devoted to open air gymnasiums for men and women into which will be installed suitable gymnasium apparatus as also space for Basket Ball, Quoits and other games.
A wire fence will surround this enclosure and separate the men's gymnasium from the women's gymnasium occupying the central part will provide seats, lockers, and perhaps toilets while a double tier of paths will give access and exit across the area into the Athletic Field and other park activities beyond. The area will be surfaced with gravel, and heavy border plantation will give access to air gymnasiums from West Cypress St.
(11) Athletic Field.
The Athletic Field lying just North of the Open Air Gymnasiums containing two and one-half acres to be surfaced with park gravel will provide a baseball Field, Football Field Running Treads of desired size as the Pole Vault High Jump Broad Jump Disc Throwing and Shot Putting. At the Southern and Blaschers will be erected for spectators, and under these Blaschers will be installed dressing rooms, toilets, etc., with storage space for field apparatus.
(12) Ornamental Section.
Further to the North and paralleling West Sycamore St. will be developed an Ornamental Park Section of several acres in which a system of informal Lagoons will occupy the central part to be flanked by lawns and naturalistic planting. Curving paths along whose courses will be placed banches shelter, summer houses and pergolas.
