BALL INTRODUCES BILL FOR SCHOOL In spite of published denials that legislation was planned to provide an elementary school at Orange Co.'s proposed $25,000 detention home, Assemblyman C. D. Ball of Santa Ana has introduced a measure providing for such a school. The bill is in the form of an amendment "section 22a to the Juvenile Court law" and empowers supervisors to establish and maintain an elementary public school thru the governing board of the elementary school district (Santa Ana) where the home is located. The supervisors are to lease the building to the school district "at a nominal rental" and shall make an agreement with the board of school trustees or city board of education of the district in which such detention home is situated to transfer from the general fund of the county to the current expense fund of the district $1600 for each teacher employed in such detention home school for the first school year," such transfer to be made before the first Monday in January. The board of trustees or the city board of education shall provide all necessary supplies in connection with the school. In addition, Supervisors "may make an agreement with the board of trustees or the city board of education of the district in which the detention home is located to transfer annually from the general fund of the district such sums in excess of the amount of money received from the state and county school funds as are necessary to maintain the school in the detention home."

The house is wrestling with this problem while pressure upon the alien property custodian and other administration officials from those whose property is held becomes greater constantly. Approximately $350,000,000 worth of seized property is now held. Ninety-three per cent of the trusts involved represent funds of $10,000 or less. There is a bill pending to return immediately to original owners all of the $10,000 trusts. There is a feeling among congressmen that all of these trusts, regardless of size, should be returned and the office of the property custodian abolished. Democrats and Republicans, alike, are anxious to wind up the administration of alien property and partnership has disappeared largely.

ACCEPT OF TRACTS Seven different maps of tracts, including several upon yesterday by WASHINGTON, D. C., Feb. 7. Defying federal authorities, two of the "Big Five" packers, Armour & Co. and Morris & Co., are going ahead with preparations for a merger. Details of the scheme, which was declared by Secretary of Agriculture Wallace contrary to the public good, have reached the U. S. senate and have sent to Secretary Wallace. Charger is said to be in direct violation of promises made by representatives of Armour & Co. two months ago when they asked government authorities if the merger would be contrary to federal anti-trust laws.

Armour representatives requested the secretary not to down formal verdict, saying it would injure them commercially, but promised to abide by the formal decision of Secretary Wallace. SAYS HUSBAND WAS EXTREMELY JEALOUS Lawrence E. Mills was so jealous of her that he accused her of infidelity when she visited the neighbors, and she was charged in connection with such visits of "visiting them for the purpose of making love to their husbands". This is among the charges in the complaint filed today by Bessie V. Mills against Lawrence E. Mills for divorce. She alleges also lack of the necessaries of life during their marriage, so much so that she had to depend upon relatives. She asks divorce, division of the community property amounting to several thousands of dollars, that her husband be prevented from touching this property and for such other relief as the court may specify. The two were married at San Bernardino Sept. 30, 1914, and separated on Jan. 19, 1923. They have one child of their own, Everett Button, a boy of three. REPORTS LOSS OF PURSE Mrs. Paromares of 550 S.

JUDGE COMMENDS DEFENDANT IN CASE J. L. Thomas, arraigned this morning before Judge Brown on the charge of assault and battery, was dismised with commendation. Complaint was preferred by Charles B. Sterner, of Rose-st and Broadway, who said that Thomas, his step-son, walloped him on the jaw last night. The trouble is said to be an ont-growth of a disagreement over treatment of Mrs. Sterner who is afflicted with a cancer. Thomas says that Sterner is constantly doing things, and saying things to annoy her, that he loaned Sterner $500 for her treatment, but when it developed that an anticipated operation could not be performed Sterner spent the money for other things. Sterner wants Thomas to stay away from the house, since they seem unable to get along, but Thomas refuses. Judge Brown told Sterner he was K. OF C. TO GIVE FOURTH DEGREE LOS ANGELES. Feb.
