Community Gathering Thursday Building a city beautiful must, follow the idea of closing a city practical, and E. G. Lewis, principal speaker at the C. of C., community dinner at Elks' club tomorrow night at 7 o'clock has abundantly proved his ability to do both. He is the founder of several cities in the east and Atlantic coast, one of the model cities of the Pacific Slope, and is now calling together the best technical talent in the world, and marshaling these cohorts to build what promises to make on the 19,000 acres comprising the Palos Verdes grant, recently acquired in trust by him, the most splendid city and suburban unit in the history of civilization. Mr. Lewis's speech at Fullerton a few days since made an impression that will last. He is not only an educated speaker, but drives his message home with a spice of humor that makes a distinct hit. All Anaheimers are invited to hear him and learn, in brief, what the local Chamber has accomplished in the last year. The latter information will be printed and no tiresome figures, or boastful speeches of solicitations will be tolerated at this function. Special entertainment features have been provided and Mine Host Rice, noted for his good eats, has arranged a good repast for the small sum of $1, but reservation cannot be made after noon today. Thursday, July 6, the warning issued from the Chamber today, where the mail has brought in several scores of reservations already. A novel feature of the dinner is possible of arrangement, it is thought by the Board, in the shape of showing of the moving pictures made at the last Valencia Orange Show by Pathe or Kinema weeklies. Messrs Jack Retlaw and Tom Ingram, managers of the California Theatre are this morning endeavoring to locate these film and have either one of them ready to throw on the screen at Elks' club, for the members and their friends, Thursday night. Miss Marion Stroup, tiny singer and dancer, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Joe Stroup, has signified her willingness to put on two numbers for which she is now in rehearsal. Marion has been before the public enough to demonstrate that she holds within her tiny toes and throat future possibilities, and her stunts will go far toward making the evening pleasant. If the films showing the features of her last show are obtainable, a reel of 500 feet preserved from the Exposition of last year will also be shown, including all the outstanding points of interest and Mrs. Remsberg, packing a box of oranges for her noted brother, President Warren G. Harding. PLAN PLUNGE IN A.U.W.CO. RESERVOIR Planning a swimming pool at the corner of Orangethorpe and Placeenia avenues on ground of the Anaheim Union Water Co., T. L. McFadden and J. W.

It was stated Employes Willing to Consider Proposal to Settle Trouble CHICAGO, July 5.—The striking railway employees are ready and "perfectly willing to consider any proposal from any one in authority, including the labor board, which will lead to a settlement of the strike of the 400,000 men," it was stated today by a high union official at the headquarters of the railway employees department of the American Federation of Labor. "If they have anything to offer," continued this official, "we are ready to consider it." Concerning the proposal of settling the strike, B. M. Jewell, head of the striking railway men, declared: "We have been and are now anxious to meet authoritative representatives to settle the dispute, which can and ought to be settled. "This talk about our having cut loose from the labor board and refusing to consider the labor board as a medium of settling the strike has no official basis. The labor board has had no official notification that our men are no longer railroad employees; that they have removed themselves from the jurisdiction of the board." Statements contrary to this he pointed out "are simply excuses and efforts on the part of certain officials to pass their mistakes on to someone else." Jewell made himself clear that the virtual calling off of the strike of the maintenance of way employees had been expected by him and came as no surprise. Neither would it hurt the morale of the striking men, he said. HAVELOCK, Neb., July 5.—Thirteen imported strikebreakers who attempted to enter the Burlington shops here this morning were rounded up by strike sympathizers, escorted to the edge of town and told to "beat it." Only two of the imported men succeeded in reaching the shops. John Doe warrants were issued today for strikers alleged to have beaten, robbed and driven from town 25 shop guards. HEYING RETURNS FROM TRIP EAST Al Heying of the Heying Pharmacy, has returned to town after a trip of several weeks, in the course of which he visited most of the principal cities of the country and Canada. Heying's companion was F. S. Collins of Los Angeles. The trip was the first back East that Heying has made in the 20 years he has been West. The Princess Nagaoka Kuni at left, with her mother, who will be the new Empress of Japan. Her engagement to the Prince Regent of Japan was announced shortly before the Prince left for a visit of Europe. The wedding will probably take place some time in the fall. BRAZIL ARMY IN REVOLT BUENOS AIRES, July 5.—According to reports reaching this city the entire army of Brazil revolted by pre-arranged plan at 11 o'clock this morning. The news came as a complete surprise, as there had been no thought here that revolutionary activities in Brazil had reached the stage of an army uprising. GREAT CROWDS AT CONCORDIA FOURTH The new Concordia clubhouse and grounds were crowded yesterday, particularly at night, when the society observed Independence Day. Friends of the club and its members from many points in and outside the county were present. The most novel feature of the day was a slow race for ladies. Six of them moved about 10 yards in about 25 minutes. Mrs. Adolph F. Piegel being the slowest. Another feature was a fat men's race. Dick mianmeyer being the fastest contestant. There were also races for the children. City Attorney Hans Weisel, who was to have delivered the speech of the day, could not attend. There was a barbecue beginning just after 11 a.m., and resumed just after six p. m.; a program of vocal music by the members starting at about one o'clock, dancing from two to six p. m., to the accompaniment of Hefner's orchestra, and a ball at night, for which the orchestra again played. Good things to drink, as well as to eat, were served. Plotters have been intriguing in Brazil for some time, it has been known here. There has been discontent, particularly in the southern districts, ever since the outbreaks fostered by German agents and German settlers during the World War. POINCARE BATTLES ENEMIES; SPIRIT OF REVOLT IS SHOWN PARIS, July 5.—The spirit of revolution which has been seething in France for two years, broke out today in the wildest scenes which have been staged in the French parliament during the present century. While a great throng gathered about the parliament building and the "Marsellaise" was sung, the communist faction in the chamber of deputies this afternoon launched a violent and concerted attack against Premier Polinaire, accusing HEYING RETURNS FROM TRIP EAST Al Heying of the Heying Pharmacy, has returned to town after a trip of several weeks, in the course of which he visited most of the principal cities of the country and Canada. Heying's companion was F. S. Collins of Los Angeles. The trip was the first back East that Heying has made in the 20 years he has been West, "California for me," said Heying. Business conditions in the United States appear to be excellent almost everywhere, especially in Detroit, said Heying, where the factories are rushed with business. Canada, burdened with post-war effects, including high taxes, and with crop failures in some sections, is not yet normal. Heying visited Hudnut's establishment—perfumery, etc.—in New York and Fred Sterns & Company's factory in Detroit on the trip. This was only incidental, however, his chief object being pleasure. Washington, D.C., was among the cities he saw in the course of his sight-seeing. MAN DROWNS IN EFFORT TO SAVE SON LOS ANGELES, July 5.—The heroic attempt of a Los Angeles man to save his son from death by drowning cost the father his own life when he became entangled in net-like weeds in Elizabeth lake, north of this city, and was drawn beneath the waters, it was revealed today in reports of the tragedy received at the sheriff's office. The son managed to reach the shore safely, but the father, becoming entangled in the weeds, succumbed. SANITARIUM PATIENTS New patients at the Anaheim Sanitarium include: Mrs. W. J.

LOUIS, Mo., July 5.—Eight car bandits, posing as "innocent passengers," disarmed an officer and stole -21,000 in cash and $79,000 in negotiable checks from a bank messenger here today. Patrolman Oscar King, acting as an escort to Joseph EE. Massop, 48, Tower Grove bank messenger, was surrounded by the men as he stood in the alley of the car. Four of the bandits grabbed the messenger's satchel, covering him with guns, and jumped off the street car with the $100,000 loot. All the highwaymen crowded into a big green automobile which had been following the street car and escaped, closely pursued by police. HARDING DENOUNCES CLASS DOMINATION Marion, Ohio—"A free American has the right to labor without any other's leave." President told an audience here, and added that "it would be no less an abridgment to deny men the right to bargain collectively. Governments cannot tolerate any class or grouped domination through force. General Pershing, who spoke on the same platform, denounced the killings at Herrin, Ill., during the miners' uprisings. BIGGEST CALIFORNIA FIG TREE OROVILLE, July 5.—Officials of the Peach and Fig Growers' association believe that they have located the largest fig tree in California. It is located on the Westrobe place in Coal canyon here, and experts of the Growers' association are now taking the measurements of the tree. REVOLT IS SHOWN PARIS, July 5.—The spirit of revolution which has been seething in France for two years, broke out today in the wildest scenes which have been staged in the French parliament during the present century. While a great throng gathered about the parliament building and the "Marseillaise" was sung, the communist faction in the chamber of deputies this afternoon launched a violent and concerted attack against Premier Poincaire, accusing him of beginning the World War. The premier "stood like a rock," meeting the attacks with defiance and demands for a public apology. "He smiled while viewing the vast graveyards of France's heroic dead," was one of the charges hurled against him. Three communist deputies in turn hurled questions at the premier concerning his pre-war policies, which they asserted contributed to starting the war. PAYS $50 FINE FOR OLD-TIME DRUNK J. E. Huntington of Whittier, got on an old-time Fourth of July drunk. Before he got over it he landed in Judge Kuchel's court, and was fined $50. He and a friend started to Anheim Monday and stopped off Norwalk where they got some whiskey. Manning imbibed too much, and was picked up Monday night by the local officers on the charge of drunkenness. It is said that the liquor which was apparently mixed with wood alcohol, made him so sick that it was necessary to call a physician, and that it was feared for a time that he would die. Other fines collected for speeding were: John Doe,-5; Mrs. S. S. Pugh,$5; R. C. Colt,$10. IRELAND TO ISSUE GOV't CALL TO ARMS DUBLIN JULY 5.—A national call to arms will be issued to the people of the Irish Free State tomorrow by the Irish provisional government, it was learned this afternoon.

After the accident is was discovered that the two families were formerly neighbors at Richfield. Both cars had to be fowed into Anaheim. The worst hurt was Henry, the four-year-old son of Mr. and Mrs. Arthur Harms, who was hurled out of the Studebaker upon the pavement. One of his lips was nearly cut off, his face cut up and his head and body bruised. Harm's head was cut and one shoulder badly sprained. Mrs. Harms was severely bruised. They live near Richfield. R. M. Combs of Huntington Beach was driving the Buick, in company with his wife and another couple. His back and one knee were badly cut and his body bruised. Mrs. Combs was eat in several places, received a sprained hip and the artery in one of her legs was severed. The other two were unhurt. Dr. J. W. Truxaw, who was summoned, gave emergency aid on the scene and then brought all of the victims to his office, from where, after attention, they left for their homes. Harm was going north and Combs coming south. Harms had almost completed crossing the intersection when the crash came. One wheel of Harms' Studebaker was taken off, the windshield was smashed and the car dented. The radiator of the Buick was ruined, the windshield broken and other minor damages done. Edward Mills was the first man on the scene and picked up the little Harms boy. E. C. Mathis and others of Anaheim also gave aid. MAY CUT COST OF MILK INSPECTION The city may cut its milk inspection in two, if inspections started by the county pan out, as Dr. J. W. Truxaw, City Health Officer, expect them to. The county is inspecting various dairies outside the cities, and all of the dairies supplying Anaheim are believed to be included. Inspections take place once a month. Anaheim hitherto has been having inspections twice each month. The principal difficulty appears to be lack of funds of the county for the purpose. The reason why inspections still are limited. SHIP PIPE ORGAN FOR ZION CHURCH A large pipe organ ordered by the Zion Lutheran congregation for their new church has left Brottleboro, Vt., and is now en route here, according to G. H. Grefe, organist. The setting up of the instrument will require several weeks, and the dedication or the edifice, which is now nearly completed, is in progress. BLAME AUTO DRIVER FOR TRAGEDY Funeral services were held today at Lawn Cemetery, Los Angeles, for Mrs. Lennie Powell, killed Saturday in a Santa Fe railroad crossing accident near Placentin, when a car driven by her fiance, Carl Tabbert, was struck by a Santa Fe train. William Oglesby of Fullerton officiated at the services. The coroner's jury which held an inquest over the body Monday afternoon at the Seale funerary parlor in Fullerton rendered the verdict that she came to her death as the result of the accident in which the car she was riding was struck by a Santa Fe passenger train, due to the carelessness of the driver of the car. The train crew was exonerated from any of the blame since it is stated, the bells were ringing, and other cars had stopped to let the train pass. Roberta Powell, little daughter of the deceased, was badly hurt and is yet at the Fullerton hospital. It is stated that she is more rational today. It is hoped she will recover. Mr. Tabbert, who was taken to the hospital, is sufficiently recovered as to be removed.

The report of the road committee, which meets in the morning, will be one of the chief features of the afternoon session. This committee has been investigating road conditions and traffic regulations and is expected to present a preliminary report covering what should be the general road policy of the Farm Bureau. BERLIN, July 5.—Grossman, the butcher on trial for a series of revolting murders, and accused of selling in the form of sausage, the flesh of women he had slain, committed suicide today in jail. Grossman's body was discovered by guards dangling on a rope from the ceiling of his cell, after he had been carefully protected against attacks by infiltrated women.

Webb, Jr. Monday was the last day when such claims could be filed, according to section I, Article XIII of the State constitution. Veterans corps, marino service, relatives and pensioners are eligible. The privilege of exemption applies to "every blasted war that the United State ever smelt powder in," says Webb.
