ATTACK LAW TO LIMIT TRUCKS
L. A. Draymen's Ass'n Wins Temporary Advantage in Test Case at Ontario
The Los Angeles Drayman's Ass'n today won a temporary advantage in their fight to upset the laws limiting the weight of trucks in Orange, Riverside and San Bernardino-cos, in a test case started before Justice of the Peace Holbrook of Ontario.
After two other truck drivers had pleaded guilty and had paid their fines, J. McNeely, driver for F. W. Granger, Los Angeles truckman, filed a demurrer asserting the court had no jurisdiction over a state road where his alleged offense occurred.
Justice Holbrook sustained the demurrer, holding that while supervisors had jurisdiction over county-rds, they could not regulate state thorofaes.
11 Chevrolets Stolen Here Since Nov. 1st
The auto thieves in and about Anaheim seem to care very little about what kind of a car they steal—just so it's a Chevrolet. At least indications this month point that way.
There have been 11 Chevrolets stolen here since the first of the month, two more such thefts being reported to the police Saturday by Frank J. Dauser, of Fullerton, and Frank A. Bradford, of the Anaheim Auto Co.
The Dauser car contained a large number of "eats," but that it was not a hungry man who stole the car was evidenced by the fact that when the car was recovered by local police Sunday the "eats" nor anything else in the car, had been disturbed.
The other Chevrolet was also recovered, nothing having been taken from it.

the weight of trucks in Orange, Riverside and San Bernardino-cos, in a test case started before Justice of the Peace Holbrook of Ontario.
After two other truck drivers had pleaded guilty and had paid their fines, J. McNeely, driver for F. W. Granger, Los Angeles truckman, filed a demurrer asserting the court had no jurisdiction over a state road where his alleged offense occurred.
Justice Holbrook sustained the demurrer, holding that while supervisors had jurisdiction over county-rds, they could not regulate state thorofares.
District Atty. P. W. Duckworth, of San Bernardino-co., immediately announced he would appeal to the superior court.
There have been several convictions under the new law in the Orange-co. courts.

BIG ELKS' SHOW AT CALIFORNIA TONIGHT
Queer things have been going on in Anaheim the last few days. For instance:
Harvey Riley quit work today and went home to dye his hair red.
Oscar Heying, without a word of explanation, purchased a pair of trousers of sufficient proportions to clothe the fatman in a circus.
Ray Lewis had his front teeth pulled so he could have an Eddie-Foy smile.
A regular stampede is going on in the beauty shops—Marcelles are as priceless as diamonds.
And crepe paper—my! what popularity? Practically every store in Anaheim has completely sold out the entire stock of pink crepe paper.
When the lights are turned low and the 1300 persons who bought tickets for the Elks Big Show tonight at the California have quieted, the curtain will rise on a stage set with 130 little tots and Master Robert Shaw will delight the audience with their clever repartee. The arcade of the theater is being decorated in Etho colors with a special lighting attraction. The last word has been said—two hundred and fifty hearts are fluttering and wondering.
If you will like it, say so. If you don't—but we know you will. Don't miss the treat of the season.

LOST ANGELES, Nov. 14.—California is the sixth largest state in the Union in population and voting strength, according to the official census (figures which have just been compiled at Washington).
The report also stated that in California women voters are almost as numerous as men and according to the comparative system, probably will out-depend on the fact that when the car was recovered by local police Sunday the "eats" nor anything else in the car had been disturbed.
The other Chevrolet was also recovered, nothing having been taken from it.

CALIF. SIXTH IN VOTING STRENGTH
LOS ANGELES, Nov. 14.—California is the sixth largest state in the Union in population and voting strength, according to the official census (figures which have just been compiled at Washington.
The report also stated that in California women voters are almost as numerous as men and according to the comparative system, probably will outnumber enfranchised males within another two years.
The male population of the state is now 1,250,880, which is 182,830 more than the female population of 1,067,950. Registered voters are divided as follows: Men, 998,095; women, 930,152, being a difference of only 57,942.
The total number of men over the age of 21 in the United States is 21,403,270, while the women of the same ages total 29,402,150.
The census report also points out that the total number of Indians in the United States over the age of 21 is only four-tenths of 1 per cent of the total population of the country.

Bug Puts 60 Phone Lines Out of Whack
Repair men for the Pac, Tel. & Tel. Co. made quick work yesterday of repairs to the cable between the Anaheim and Fullerton telephone exchanges when 60 pairs of telephone lines were thrown out of commission by the ravages of an inquisitive bug which bored into the cable, permitting entrance of moisture which resulted in a short-circuit.
Immediately upon report of the trouble, Manager E. A. Meard of the two exchanges, called a special cable repair man from Los Angeles who was on the job by 10 a.m.
By 12 noon, the cable was in working order again, the cable man having quickly located the trouble by means of a special instrument which detects the distance from a break or short circuit. The moisture-laden cable was dried out and varnished, to prevent another attack by fog or rain.
"If you don't believe a bug can put a telephone out of commission, we can show you a sample of such vandalism at our Fullerton office," says Beard, whose

GERMANY ASKS TIME FOR ENVOY
WASHINGON, Nov. 14. — Germany has sent a communication to the U.S. asking that this nation defer the naming of an ambassador to Germany, it was learned today.
Germany, it is understood, said that the government has as yet been unable to find a citizen of that country of sufficient wealth to accept the ambassador's place. Because of this fact Germany is anxious that the two nations be represented only by charge d'affaires for the present.
TEN DEAD, 11 DYING IN N. Y. HOTEL FIRE
NEW YORK, Nov. 14. — Ten persons are dead and an eleventh is dying as the results of a fire in a five-story tenement house at 108 W. Seventeenth-st here early today. Two of the victims were children.
So much progress had the fire made before it was discovered and so rapidly did it spread that several of the victims were burned in their beds without a chance for life.
The cause of the blaze has not been learned.
Thirty persons were burned or injured in the mad scramble that followed the sounding of the alarm by employees of a postal substation across the street.
CLAIM THAT CANTU HEADS NEW REVOLT

WILL HAVE LARGER Y. M. C. A. PROGRAM
In order that the work of the Y. M. C. A. might be in proportion to the rapid growth of our city, the parents and friends of the boys now in the Y. M. C. A. at a community meeting recently, decided to adopt the larger plan as presented by the county secretaries. This plan calls for a part-time man on the county staff giving his time to the work in Anaheim alone.
With the changing of the fiscal year of the Y. M. C. A. to end Dec. 31 instead of May 31, as in the past, the budget for the county for a period of 15 months will be $20,000, which amount carries the work through Jan. 1, 1922, and provides for 5 secretaries and an office secretary, three giving all their time to the promotion of the work and two part-time secretaries, one in Orange and one in Anaheim. The quota for Anaheim for this period of time is $3500.
Realizing that this larger program must necessitate more time and thought it was decided to enlarge the local committee, so that the work might be more thorough and better directed. This committee is being called together by the chairman Chas. Eygabroad, Thursday noon 17 talk over the plans for the winter and arrange the dates for the canvass. With the people of the community backing the Y. M. C. A. in the work with the boys we may rest assured that our future citizens will be of the same high standard for which the Association stands.

COUNTER
May Suggest England Be Limited to 22 and U.S. 18 Capital Ships
TOKIO, Nov. 14. — It became practically certain today that Japan would submit counter-proposals on limitation of armament as its answer to the Hughes program offered by the U.S. at Washington Saturday.
The counter proposals probably will accept Japan's limitation of 10 capital ships but will ask a readjustment of the proportionate strength of the naval powers, suggesting England be limited to 22, the U.S. to 18 capital ships.
Japan should demand that she be permitted to retain 12 capital ships, the Anahi, a leading Tokio newspaper declared today, discussing the Hughes proposals.
Scrapping of the battleship Mutsu, recently completed, was opposed.
The general attitude of the press today was that the Hughes program constituted a splendid idea, but the details would be difficult to work out.
The first flush of approval was somewhat modified by skepticism over details as more complete reports on the Hughes program arrived by cable.
The Tokio Nichi Nichi, a leading paper, quoted anonymous naval officers as characterizing the proposals as grossly unfair toward Japan and declaring approval impossible.
TURKEYS IN MARKET LOWER THIS YEAR
LOS ANGELES, Nov. 14. — With 1,500,000 pounds of frozen turkey left over from last year and a huge crop flooding the market this year, expert buyers announced today that the probable price of Thanksgiving birds would be around 45 cents per pound while the cost of Christmas dinner would be considerably less.
The turkey industry of San Joaquin and Imperial valleys has been exceedingly good this year, according to advice reports, and ranchers are preparing big shipments for market.
The buyers are positive that the price will not be over 45 cents and even optimistically estimate that the final price will be around 42 cents. This will be a reduction of 15 cents per pound over last year's prices.

RUSH TROOPS TO

SAN DIEGO, Nov. 14.—Reinforcements were pouring into Tia Juanna today to aid Mexican federal troops who were attacked and routed by the linsurrectionists yesterday, according to unofficial reports filtering across the border.
Contrary to the first reports, which said the federal put the rebels to flight without casualties, it was declared today that the federal troops were ambuscaded in San Antonio canyon, a few miles south of the border.
Fifteen federalers were killed, while the rebels lost but two dead and two were taken prisoner.
Five hundred federalers were executed today from Ensenada, and a troop of cavalry arrived this morning from Tecate.

Dr. H. A. Johnston spoke on high blood pressure and how to prevent it. This, in a number of cases, has resulted in heart trouble and death. The best way to prevent this is not to overheat, smoke too heavily and to keep "decent" hours. The matter thus is largely up to the individual.
Mr. Hartranft made a short talk on the peace conference.

"Vigorous application of a slipper while a naughty boy still is in the plastic period of childhood may say him from shame, his parents from disgrace and the state from trouble and expense," Mr. Tobey said.
"More than 50 per cent of criminals brought into court were made so by the neglect or weakness of their parents."

U.S. PROPOSAL GETS LLOYD GEORGE O. K.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 14. — A J. Balfour, head of the British delegation to the armament conference, probably will go before the conference tomorrow and virtually accept the proposals for a naval holiday by the U.S., it was stated semi-officially at the delegation headquarters today. Mr. Balfour, however, will probably ask in the speech, that certain portions of the proposals be opened for amendment and further discussion.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 14. — Of the utmost significance were two announcements made today.
The first came over the cables from London and was a statement by Lloyd George, premier of Great Britain.
The other was from leaders in the American congress.
The first said that "America's proposal for limitation of naval armaments are compatible with British interests."
The second stated that the U.S. to show its good faith, will declare a naval building holiday at least during the period of the duration of the conference.
Lloyd George's assertion is viewed here as tantamount to a forecast that England will accept the Hughes-Harding program.
If this should prove true Japan will find herself in the position of being compelled to follow suit.
SUPERVISORS WILL RE-DEFINE ATTITUDE
Charles Eygabroad, chairman of a committee from the Kiwanis club, today was preparing a resolution which will be adopted by county supervisors tomorrow, more clearly defining their attitude toward the proposal of the Union Pacific to extend a line into Orange-co.
In adopting a resolution in line with protests of Tustin ranchers against construction of a spur, supervisors did not leave it clear as to their attitude toward the U.P.'s main line proposition.
The resolution not only clears up this phase but also suggests the U.P. make use of an existing So. Pac. spur line into the Tusting district.
HEARING
Prosecution and Defense in Manslaughter Case Both Issue Statements
SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 14. — With so great an audience in attendance that the police reserves had to be turned out to handle the crowd, Roscoe Arbuckle went on trial here today to decide whether he shall get 10 years in prison for the death of Virginia Rappe, motion picture actress who died following a carousel in his apartments at the St. Francis hotel, or whether he shall be declared not guilty of the charge of manslaughter which has been made against him.
And at the same time Arbuckle is on trial before a jury in Judge Lauderback's court, he is on trial before the men, women and children of America as to whether he shall be permitted to return to his former favor as a comedian of the screen.
There were the names of 12 women as prospective jurors on the panel of 65 which was presented as court convened.
The defense does not want women jurors, but the prosecution is very much in favor of them.
Before the trial opened both sides issued statements.
"A girl entered Roscoe Arbuckle's room and when she came out she was dying," Dist. Atty. Brady said.
"We believe Roscoe Arbuckle responsible for her death. The defense seeks to try the girl on the basis of her past life." The past of beautiful girl is not an issue. It is being used to fog the real issue."
Defense lawyers denied they were attacking Miss Rappe's morals.
"We want merely to show the scientific facts of her physical condition," declared the actor's counsel.
An hour before the opening of the trial police were on hand at every point of vantage in the hall of justice.
Bluecoats guarded the doors. They were on duty at the elevators, on every floor landing and on all stairways. Others patrolled the corridors. Admission was by card only. An elderly woman who refused to give her name was the first arrival.

When two painters, on a scaffold, this morning, had been pulled part of the way to the cornice of the Valencia hotel, which they are repainting, Frank Newman, Lo Angeles, painting contractor, observed that the two half inch ropes supporting the men had been almost severed. Apparently the lines had been cut with a sharp knife, as only a strand of each was left intact.
Had not the vandalism been detected, the two painters would have been precipitated from the top of the hotel to the cement idewalk.
