NEWS OF FULLERTON COUNCIL URGED TO BUILD CITY HALL A committee from the Fullerton B. of T. came before Fullerton trustees at their regular meeting last night, asking that immediate action be taken by the board for the erection of a new city hall. It was pointed out that the present quarters are inadequate, and unbecoming the city of Fullerton. Indeed, some of the business men declare they are ashamed of the present housing conditions maintained by the city for its employees, and that it will be much out of place with the new hotel which is expected to go up just across the street. There was also a communication from the Kiwanis club endorsing the action of the B. of T. directors and urging that the city take immediate action for a new city hall, with the funds on hand. It is stated that there will be no need for additional taxation. There is now a fund of $100,000 on hand for this purpose, and this will more than start the work under way. A motion was made that trustees investigate, and consider the matter as a committee of the whole.

ROAD SHOW CALIFORNIA THEATRE GET READY TOMORROW ANAHI FAVORITE MEIKLEJOHN A VAUDE DON'T MISS THIS BIG DOUBLE world the completed document which on the scrolls of time is destined to be regarded as the greatest attempt to curb naval armament made during the twentieth century. Rounding it out was another treaty banning submarines as attackers of commerce and the use of poison gas in war. Hughes laid the treaty before the fifth plenary session of the conference shortly after the opening at 11 o'clock. Under the treaty of the three great naval powers—the United States, Great Britain and Japan—will scrap 68 great capital ships of a total tonnage of 1,861,643. The smaller number of old ships to be junked by France and Italy contribute to make these figures even higher. These ships include the capital ship building program of the great naval powers, the realization of the dreams of the navy men, seeking to make their country dominant in the even faster race of naval competition. The treaty starts a 10-year naval holiday—with a few exceptions—a capital ship building, dating from Nov. 12, 1921, when the conference was opened. The completed treaty announced today is mainly the same as the original American proposals. The treaty provides for a 5-5-5-3-7.15-1.75 ratio in capital ship tonnage between United States, Great Britain, Japan, France and Italy, respectively. The replacement tonnage basis for these respective powers is 525,000, 525,000, 315,000, 175,000 and 175,000 tons. Ironclad, technical rules and regulations are embodied in the pact to see that the ships to be scrapped are actually sent to the junk heap. Detailed charts are also included in accordance with which old capital ships can be replaced after the 10-year holiday. It is also provided in the treaty—a fact not fully known before—that the United States, in consultation with the other powers, shall call another conference of the signatory nations as soon as possible after eight years from the coming into force of the treaty to consider any needed changes in the pact, "in view of possible technical and scientific developments."
