HESTER, Editor Subcription rate—In No. Orange-co: Per yr. $2; six months $1.75 Entered at the Postoffice at Anaheim, Cal., as second-class matter DAILY GREETINGS TO OUR READERS Can wealth give happiness? Look around and see. What gay distress! What splendid misery! I envy none their pageantry and show. I envy none the gilding of their woe. —Young. Freak air stunts recruit the angels. Of what good is a resolution, if not kept, in good faith? The taxpayer will get no substantial relief until he demands it. Should Villa again enter politics, may the Lord have mercy upon Mexico. Common sense and integrity should sit in the jury-box, to facilitate the processes of legal justice. Premier Lloyd George took hold of an unpromising situation at Genoa and is making a great deal out of it. Give Europe ten years of assured peace, and it would thrive and repair much of the waste of the World War. Congress is going to debate the tariff for three months. Wonder if anybody will say anything new on the subject? If the United States is going to cut down its navy personnel radically, without reference to the extent of disarming by other great maritime powers, what was the use of having the Arms Conference, and the naval-holiday agreement? It would be highly imprudent for this country to reduce its naval strength too sweepingly, in advance of the other big naval POLITICAL ALLIANCES OF NATIONS BAD That political alliances between nations are essentially mischevious has been demonstrated so many times in the last two hundred years of Europe's history that no argument is needed to establish the assertion that these rival groupings of powers have been and are dangerous to the peace of the world. And yet, in the light of the bloody experience in the past, and almost within hearing of the last dread echoes of the World War, more alliances are being made in Europe, and the logical fruits will be jealousies and suspicions engendered and the breeding of feelings and conditions provocative of great wars. There is no political alliance that could be made in Europe, under present conditions, which would be beneficial or even innocuous. Let Europe drift back into rival alliances and it soon would drift back into preparations for war and finally another deluge of blood and misery would come. PRESIDENT HARDING IS TO VISIT HERE President Harding may be a visitor to Southern California this raidsummer. He will come here if he comes to the Pacific Coast. And he will come to this coast and prolong his trip into Alaska, if Congress adjourns in time to permit him to make the journey. Californians would be mightily pleased to see President Harding out here. He is personally quite popular here. Should he come to this state he will be greeted not by Republicans only, but by men and women of all parties. Mr. Harding is thoroughly democratic and a good mixer among the people. He is blessed with poise and his tranquil nature enables him to throw off much of the wearing weight of care and responsibility POLICE RUCTIONS ANGLE Something is rude in which Los Angeles are his citizens of that citation to be conversed, disagree with would be presumptive who have made the conditions the criticise as to any But it is patten while the forces—which stand for Los Angeles, are a bickerings, an chief after another a huff of bitter dislike cloud of suspicion things go on in the abiding element, cious and the deepements flourish in the high-tide of eruptions overflows and creaks lem for this and other Manifestly, there quisite morale to mote les police department and honest and efficient end to the factious wranglings over right kind of manliness department and full power to enforce hamper from those supporters.

It would be highly imprudent for this country to reduce its naval strength too sweepingly, in advance of the other big naval powers. Report that business and industrial conditions are improving is no fable. It is not a whistling to keep up courage, Business and industry actually are becoming better, the country over. There are some dark spots yet, it is true; but there are more white spots than there were. Conditions on the whole are much more favorable, with indications that improvement will continue steadily. Californians would be mightily pleased to see President Harding out here. He is personally quite popular here. Should he come to this state he will be greeted not by Republicans only, but by men and women of all parties. Mr. Harding is thoroughly democratic and a good mixer among the people.

If bees could think and express themselves as humans do, what would they say about mankind's economic system as compared with their own? The bees would not suffer by comparison. In the hive, industry, efficiency and democracy prevail, without egregious blunders, without industrial conflicts and without the bane of petty politics.

Sold Exclusively in Anaheim by Mullinix Drug Store Telephone 346 POLICE RUCTION IS BAD FOR LOS ANGELES Something is radically wrong with the way in which police affairs in Los Angeles are handled. When good citizens of that city, who are in position to be conversant with the situation, disagree as to methods, it would be presumptuous for outsiders who have made no special study of the conditions there, to advise or criticise as to any specific move. But it is patent to outsiders that while the forces—and the only forces—which stand for law and order in Los Angeles, are rent with quarrels and bickering, and while one police chief after another goes out, either in a huff of bitter dissension or under a cloud of suspicion—while these things go on in the camp of the law-abiding element, the lawless, the vicious and the desperately criminal elements flourish in Los Angeles. And the high-tide of crime centering there overflows and creates a serious problem for this and other cities adjacent. Manifestly, there cannot be the requisite morale to make the Los Angeles police department thoroughly honest and efficient until there is an end to the factional quarrels and wranglings over police affairs. The right kind of man must head the police department and he must be given full power to enforce the law without hamper from those who should be his supporters. These things should be. But, judging from unbroken police history in Los Angeles for many years there is little probability that they will be. ARMAMENT RACE PERIL TO LATIN AMERICA There is need of the peace-promoting influence of the United States intensively applied upon its sister republics of Latin America. A special correspondent who has gone over the ground in South America and studied the situation, finds all the principal countries down there overarmed and still arming, with so many boundary disputes pending that avoidance of a big war seems almost impossible. Even the ABC countries—Argentina, Brazil and Chile—while professing deep friendship for each other, are found to be distrustful and ready, should occasion offer, to engage in war with each other. This situation is disquieting and alarming. Town in Review TRY A LITTLE CHINESE POETRY As the years go by, give me but peace. Freedom from ten thousand matters. I ask myself and always answer. What can be better than coming home? A wind from the pine trees blows my sash, And my lute is bright with the mountain moon. You ask me about good and evil? Hark, on the lake there's a fisherman singing! —Translated from the Chinese of Wang Wei by Witter Bynner and Kiang Kanghu in Poetry. SURELY NOT Thome folks think I listhp, But then I don't perceive it; Listhen while I call the cat, "Here Pusthy, Pusthy, Pusthy! You want thome soup?"

Better is a dinner of herbs where love is, than a stalled ox and hatred therewith.—Old Testament.

Two bullet holes in the soup tureen bear evidence of the revolutions it has passed through. Each article bears the Bourbon coat of arms, which King Louis XVIII had placed there when Napoleon was again forced to abdiate and leave for St. Helena to end his days. Don't let anything ever again be said about New York City having no place in its life for children. It is the first city in the country so far as I know to build a hotel in which they are to have a whole dining room, planned, decorated and conducted entirely for them and for their enjoyment. The Hotel Commonwealth, the big co-operative enterprise, is putting in a children's dining room to accommodate 250. It isn't in the basement or behind the backstairs, either, where children used to be relegated. It is on the 18th floor, flooded with sunshine, with a an enclosed sunporch for them to play in when they aren't busy at eating. The matron in charge of the dining room will be something of a foster-mother to them all. When the parents have ideas as to what their little ones should eat, the matron will confer with them and see that the ideas are carried out. When they have none the matron will use her own ideas and they will be 8% Investments A year ago 8 per cent secure During recent months, however have dropped appreciably and cent securities are rare.

This situation is disquieting and demands the serious consideration of those who are responsible for the shaping of the foreign policies of the United States. Just as this country has been instrumental in bringing about a naval-holiday agreement among the chief maritime powers of the world, so it has opportunity to proceed to other big steps in peace-insurance—this time in Latin America. It would be in order to call an All-American conference to bring about disarmament agreements as affecting rival republics of Latin America. The United States Government hardly would permit those Southern republics to drift into militarism and almost certain warfare, without exerting all its influence to prevent hostilities.

Two hundred and fifty children seems a large number to provide for in a hotel of 2500 rooms. Visitors to New York don't bring children with them in that proportion, but the Commonwealth management thinks perhaps they will if they are so warmly encouraged to do it. "The Green Ring," the new play at the Neighborhood Pikyhouse, is an original and interesting play from the Russian, in which the younger generation is shown in all its seriousness and intensity of purpose contrasted to the lightmindedness of its parents. It is a good play for those people to see who constantly insist that "this awful generation" never has a serious thought. Miss Joanna Roos, who was so well liked in Granville Barker's "Harlequinade," deepened the good impression of her work as Sonia, and showed that she is a promising young emotional actress. A play by Arnold Bennett, called "What the Public Wants," new at least in this country, has been secured by the Theatre Guild. No date has been set for its opening, however, because "Back to Methuselah" is increasing in popularity and the Guild does not know when the Garrick Theatre will be free.
