"Male and female vamps have become a menace to the country" said Judge Samuels in a letter accompanying the bill, "and the only solution for the problem is to put them behind prison bars for wrecking the married life of our citizens." "They are stealing a love that should be given to a husband or wife who may have sacrificed everything else in life to make the other happy and to rear a family." "They are also stealing the opportunity to become reputable citizens from hundreds of children." YORBA LINDA At least three prominent local stores have been victimized recently by worthless check artists. Chaffee's West Center-st store was one of the number. A man presented a check for $6.00 signed W. W. Duckett, drawn on the American National Bank of Pomona. The check was given as settlement for provisions purchased, and the man disappeared at once after getting his change. A Mrs. Stephens passed worthless checks on several local stores. The checks were drawn on a LaJolla bank. One large furnishings store accepted a check for $25.

CALL CONFERENCE ON FOREST ROADS The project of calling a conference in the near future of all parties interested in the construction of highways in the national forests of S. Cal., is called to the attention of the board of supervisors in a letter received today from the Los Angeles board. The latter would get together all So. Californians concerned in the matter preparatory to obtaining action. The Los Angeles board passed resolution "endorsing the building of roads in the National Forests of Southern California" and declaring "that at the earliest possible time" such a conference be called "to formulate a definite plan for the furthering of this project." In the resolution the national forests are called "the natural playgrounds of California" and their development highly desirable for recreational reasons and for fire protection in the lower San Joaquin Valley and among the congested population south of the Tehachapi Corridor. The Bord of Supervisors late yesterday decided to take under advice for one week the question whether or not to purchase the Amlong property, half the site of 62 acres on South Bristol-st, Santa Ana, for a permanent fair grounds. According to a prominent county official, Santa Anas were the only persons on the committee which waited on the board. Supervisor W. M. Schumacher of the third district said that the sentiment of the board appeared to be against purchasing any site, because the county's finances at present would not stand the outlay, particularly after the decision yesterday to purchase at $32,000 the site for a Juvenile home on Fruit-st, Santa Ana. Anaheimers declare they can't understand how the center of population of the county could be fixed in Santa Ana considering the population outside the county seat. It is reported that the Santa Ana C. of C. is willing to purchase one-half of the old fair grounds site if the county purchases the other half.

CONWAY WILL SPEAK YORBA LINDA FOR MUTUAL PHONES Strong sentiment for a mutual telephone company was shown at a meeting of the Yorba Linda farm center last night, when a special report on the feasibility of the plan was presented. Ninety per cent or more of those present who desired phones signified their willingness to purchase stock at $30 to $100, according to service. J. F. Ahlborn of Anaheim, chairman of the Water Conservation Committee of the Associated Chambers of Commerce, roused much interest when he told of plans to save water for irrigation. He said growers were impatiently awaiting the beginning of the survey of the Santa Ana river's water resources by surveyors in charge of an expert of the U.S. Geological Survey. He declared that on an average 125,000 acre feet of water goes to waste annually in the ocean, which utilized would irrigate 60,000 additional acres. In 1916 during the high water 29,000 second feet went to waste or 60,000 acre feet in one day at the maximum. Ahlborn drew a parallel between the county's dependence upon irrigation and that of ancient civilizations like that of Babylon, which he said was ruined by the turning of the river Euphrates from its course by King Cyrus of Persia. The speaker said the valley was capable of a population of 100,000 people. Dr. S. S. Twombble, chairman of the citrus committee of the County Farm Bureau, speaking on the topic "Better Irrigation Practice in the Grove," said that much water was wasted by over-irrigation, heavy soils requiring less water than light sandy ones. The Ladies' Aid Society of the Methodist Episcopal church served a delicious supper. GOVERNOR WHETS ECONOMY AXE SACRAMENTO, Jan. 10—With The Los Angeles board passed resolution "endorsing the building of roads in the National Forests of Southern California" and declaring "that at the earliest possible time such a conference be called 'to formulate a definite plan for the furthering of this project.'" In the resolution the national forests are called "the natural playgrounds of California" and their development highly desirable for recreational reasons and for fire protection in the lower San Joaquin Valley and among the congested population south of the Tehachapi. Certain revenues also would accrue to the Forest Reserve Service, say the resolutions, from such roads.

While at the state department, it was said that the administration merely considered that "the time had come" to withdraw the forces, it was evident that the American government was actuated in ordering the withdrawal at this time by the growing seriousness of the European situation and the summary withdrawal of troops constitutes only a thinly veiled gesture of protest against France's occupation of the Ruhr. The order for withdrawal went forward to Maj. Gen. Henry T. Allen at Coblenz this morning. There is reason to believe that the decision to withdraw was made by President Harding and Secretary of INQUEST THURSDAY OVER BREA OILMAN FATALLY SCALLED Paul Cullen of Brea, who was severely scalded while employed in the Union Oil company fields, near Richfield, died in the Fullerton hospital early this morning.

R WHETS ECONOMY AXE O. Jan. 10—With was said that the administration merely considered that "the time had come" to withdraw the forces, it was evident that the American government was actuated in ordering the withdrawal at this time by the growing seriousness of the European situation and the summary withdrawal of troops constitutes only a thinly veiled gesture of protest against France's occupation of the Ruhr. The order for withdrawal went forward to Maj. Gen. Henry T. Allen at Coblenz this morning. There is reason to believe that the decision to withdraw was made by President Harding and Secretary of State Hughes following the receipt of reports from Ambassador Myron T. Herrick at Paris, and Col. R. W. Boyden, an American unofficial observer on the reparations commission, to the effect that nothing could halt the French plans for seizing the Ruhr basin. The nature of the reports from Ambassador Herrick and Colonel Boyden were not made public, and officials declined to discuss them, but the sudden order for military evacuation of the Rhine threw considerable light upon the nature of their observations. President Harding summoned Secretary of War Weeks in person at 10 a.m. and gave the order of withdrawal. Weeks announced immediately that the transports will leave New York today or tomorrow to bring home the entire contingent now stationed at Coblenz. Major General Allen and the 1550 men comprising the "army" of occupation will return on the St. Michel and it is probable the movement can be completed within 30 days. Only a handful of Americans will be left on the Rhine to clean up odds and ends incident to the American occupation. REPORT BRITAIN MAY WITHDRAW TROOPS WASHINGTON. Jan. 10—Immediately upon announcement of the American withdrawal, reports became current that British troops also would be withdrawn. These reports could not be confirmed here, the British embassy disclaiming any knowledge of the matter.

Jan. 10. — Culmirating a bitter fued of 15 years' standing, Isaac Crispen, aged 70, and John Haynes, 60 years of age, shot each other to death in a rifle duel staged on a lonely mountain road near Boonville. The two were listed among the wealthiest cattle raisers in Mendocino County. The sole witness to the double trugdy was a woman, said to be a relative of Haynes, who was with him at the time of the duel and endeavored to halt the shooting at the risk of her life. After notifying a nearby rancher of the duel she disappeared. The fued started in a trivial dispute involving a right-of-way which unsettled, grew into serious hatred as the years went by. Each attempted to obtain indictments of the other several months ago on minor charges. A recent dispute over the erection of a gate brought the fued to a climax when the two men met in their automobiles near the Mountain View schoolhouse. After a few words, Crispen is said to have opened fire on Haynes, who fell, but from the ground returned the fire, fatally wounding Crispen with one shot. Haynes died a few moments later, having been hit three times. SEVEN JOIN LEGION At regular meeting of Fullerton Post, American Legion, last night, seven new members were admitted.
