"I thought he was just like all the others. I did not know that he loved me so desperately." "I am utterly distracted and I feel today as though I am through with jazz forever."

ACTION ASKED BY KING KLEAGLE BAKER LOS ANGELES, May 2.—A demand for the arrest of Fidel Elduayen, whose home in Inglewood was raided by a mob of masked men, was made today by Nathan A. Baker, kleagle of the Ku Klux Klan, charged as an organization with responsibility for the raid, in a letter received by United States District Attorney Burke. Baker, who confessed he acted as a leader of the raiders, offered to furnish Burke with "evidence" he said was obtained at the Elduayen place, consisting of "liquor purchased statements made to us, and marked money." Burke replied immediately to Baker's letter. He informed the klan kleagle that any evidence in his possession should be turned over to prohibition officers. Baker has charged that he obtained confessions during the raid that prohibition officers received "protection money" to tolerate a bootleg establishment at the Elduayen home. LOCAL BANKS ARE BEING ENLARGED Repair and alterations to two local bank buildings have been planned. JOYCE DYED Joyce, the Dollar doll," piece in rooftops and ditches, is being police to know beauty, ex-sweetheart on with the muriz, Chile, or her craze must has led the tragedy unenviable of Errazu.

"I ll the oths loved me and I feelough with never be ace palace been out caris cafes, our hotel said was obtained at the Elduayen place, consisting of "liquor purchased statements made to us, and marked money." Burke replied immediately to Baker's letter. He informed the klan kleagle that any evidence in his possession should be turned over to prohibition officers. Baker has charged that he obtained confessions during the raid that prohibition officers received "protection money" to tolerate a bootleg establishment at the Elduayen home. "Being the officers who secured the evidence against and effected the arrests of the Elduayens Saturday night, April 22, we are ready, when requested, to turn over to the United States authorities evidence which we believe will result in the conviction of these men," Baker's letter said, in part. "The evidence consists or liquor purchased, statements made to us, and marked money which passed. "This place is unsavory in character and we are anxious to assist federal officers in blotting it out." In referring to himself as an "officer" Baker had reference to the fact that he was a special deputy sheriff at the time of the raid. His deputy sheriff badge has since been taken from him by order of Sheriff Trager. L. L. Bryson, formerly a deputy constable at Huntington Park, who was Baker's lieutenant in the raid on the Elduayen place, also signed the letter to the United States district attorney. Bryson's deputy constable badge was taken from him yesterday by order of Constable Harry Bosshard, who asserted that Bryson had "completely violated" his authority as an officer. Burke, in his letter, informed Baker and Bryson that the United States district attorney's office does not conduct investigations' of cases and that the "evidence" should be turned over to prohibition officers. He explained that the prohibition officers, if the evidence justifies it, would report to him and a complaint would be issued. D. J. O'Leary, chief prohibition agent, conferred with Burke and Assistant United States District Attorney Mark Herron today relative to Baker's charges that Elduayen paid $1700 for protection as an alleged bootlegger. O'Leary requested that the United States grand jury investigate Baker's charges immediately. Prohibition officers have stated that they frequently investigated Elduayen's place, which was a bonded winery, but failed to find any evidence of violation of prohibition laws. William S. Coburn, grand goblin of the Ku Klux Klan, stated today that he was busy rounding up members of the raiding party in preparation for the surrender of the raiders in a body. LOCAL BANKS ARE BEING ENLARGED Repair and alterations to two local bank buildings have been planned for the very near future, the Anaheim National and First National. The latter recently completed the work of adding a cage to the American Savings Bank's quarters and space on the second floor to its facilities. The improvements reflect the growth of the three institutions. With the removal of the real estate offices of Eygabroad & Fisher from the space in the rear of the Anaheim National Bank building, the bank will occupy additional room amounting to approximately 12 by 25 feet. The space will be used to extend the directors' room and give more vault room. The work will begin as soon as an architect has finished satisfactory plans. In addition, the bank will completely rearrange its interior. President W. A. Dolan said, increasing the cage space and moving the cages further to one side, so as to permit room for the president's office on one side. It is planned to have the offices all on one side and the cages on the other. The proposed removal of the escrow department to the northwest corner of the First National Bank's office will permit the addition of another window to its quarters.

QUESTED that the United States grand jury investigate Baker's charges immediately. Prohibition officers have stated that they frequently investigated Elduayen's place, which was a bonded winery, but failed to find any evidence of violation of prohibition laws. William S. Coburn, grand goblin of the Ku Klux Klan, stated today that he was busy rounding up members of the raiding party in preparation for the surrender of the raiders in a body. EFKER WRITES TO DISTRICT ATTORNEY District Attorney A. P. Nelson has received from Herman J. Efker, proprietor of the Anaheim Novelty Co., a letter the latter was sent on Ku Klux Klan stationery similar to the one received by James H. Clark, former proprietor of the Hotel Valencia. The letter makes various charges, in addition to the usual warning to close up business affairs and leave, but in the absence of Nelson from his office in Santa Ana the contents could not be disclosed in detail. Deputy District Attorney D. G. Wettlin said that the man who was mentioned as a suspect in the sending of the letter was a member of the Klan, according to the roster in Nelson's possession received from District Attorney Woolwine of Los Angeles-co. An attorney here suspected of being a member of the Klan is not a member, according to this same roster. Wettlin said that the attitude of the district attorney and his aldea toward the Klan was unchanged, except that men mentioned in the roster could not be expected to receive passive protection indefinitely from the office, if they continued members. Nelson's view has been that various reputable men of many communities in the county joined the order because of sympathy with its object not realizing the methods the law used to carry them out. Some 25 men are klansmen outside of Santa Ana, of the 203 in the city. Fullerton, Orange, Huntsville etc., being represented. Carl Simmons, cement contractor. Phone 100-H-3.
