SECOND SECTION VOL. XXVI—NO. 227 PLAN $1,000,000 FURTHER CAPITAL TO BE BROUGHT FROM EAST Joe Siegel Says Enterprise Will Positively be Started Shortly Plans for a $1,000,000 furniture factory in Anaheim were announced today by Joe Siegel. Eastern capital will finance the project. If the building of the Anaheim Sugar Co. recently purchased by the Holly Sugar Corp. can be obtained, the opening of the new factory will be possible within a comparatively short time. Negotiations have not yet been commence with either the Holly people or the easterners. The new industry here, however, does not depend upon obtaining the sugar factory, Siegel declared. The furniture factory will positively be started in Anaheim, if necessary in another building. If a new structure had to be erected, however, the launching of the project would be de- CITY GROWTH SHOWN BY REPORT 749 Building Permits Totaling $1,814,076 in Year Ending May 1 The financially healthful condition of Anaheim was indicated clearly last night, when City Clerk Ed Merritt presented his annual report. The city's growth also appeared in the mounting expenditure for public projects. Anaheim received $43,874.35 in water collections the past year; $103,231.00 in light and power fees; $78,823.81 in taxes; $61,965.20 from bonds gold; and a total of $743,-394.31. Expenditures in the waterworks account amounted to $61,713.81; on 59; on Joint sewer construction, $14.-651.68; on electric service, $59,963.-08; on public streets, $60,764.05; on interest redemption, $37,542.15; on the municipal building, $77,376.76. cently purchased by the Holy Sugar Corp. can be obtained, the opening of the new factory will be possible within a comparatively short time. Negotiations have not yet been commence with either the Holly people or the easterners. The new industry here, however, does not depend upon obtaining the sugar factory, Siegel declared. The furniture factory will positively be started in Anaheim, if necessary in another building. If a new structure had to be erected, however, the launching of the project would be delayed. The climate of So. Calif. is regarded as ideal for a factory, because the thousands of square feet of room for drying and seasoning the lumber would be unnecessary. While Siegel could not speak, he said, for his associates in the matter of the factory's operation, much or most of the lumber would come; he said, from California. The advantage of shipment by water via San Pedro also has been suggested. The backers of Siegel are men who have been in the furniture business in Michigan for 25 years. The concern is an old-established one, which knows the manufacturing of furniture thoroughly.

One half of the program concerns the opening of a new unit, made necessary by the selling out of Unit No. 1 of 500 lots, the last of which will be disposed of in a few days. The other part of the celebration will be in the nature of a spudding in party, to start the drill on its voyage of discovery into the hoped for oil sands that many believe underlie the property. It is expected that a large gathering of lot owners and others interested in Vallecinto will respond to the invitations that are shortly, to be sent out, since it is pointed out that they have an immediate interest in the oil venture, although they do not have to contribute financially to it. If oil is found a share of the royalties is to be set apart for distribution to all owners of lots in proportion to their holdings. The tract is rapidly rounding into shape along home community lines, with every day showing considerable advancement, the agents report. Plans are being prepared for several homes and actual building operations may be looked for very shortly, it is said. SWISS KILLS RUSS PEACE DELEGATE (By International News Service) LAUSANNE, May 11.—"My only hope is that I have an opportunity to get George Tchitcherin, also." This declaration was made here today by Alexander Conradi, a Swiss who shot and killed M. Vorovsky, Russian observer at the Near East peace conference, in the dining room of the hotel Cecil last night. Conradi paced restlessly up and down his cell, smoking cigarettes as he talked. He had spent a sleepless night. "He is really dead, isn't he?" exclaimed the prisoner, referring to Vorovsky. "I was sure he was dead when I saw him fall. How are the others? The Russians tortured my father and my uncle. It was vengeance. They had it coming to them. I want to get Tchitcherin before I die." Tchitcherin is the commissioner for foreign affairs in the Moscow government. Vorovsky was the Russian envoy to Rome. Vorovsky came here as an observer. Dibrilkovsky, secretary to Vorovsky, is dying from a bullet wound inflicted by Conradi. M. Ahrens, head of the Russian telegraph agency, is wounded, but is expected to recover. The three Russians were dining together when Conradi entered the room. He took an adjoining table and drank several glasses of brandy.

"My dear Fraser: Essaying an American hunch I essayed to deliver two boxes of Valencias to Windsor Castle a few days ago, and after various conferences with Scotland Yard, succeeded in getting them delivered to the Lord High Keeper of the Pantry, or whatever his name is. Today I received a note thanking me for the gift and signed "George, Rex." "When I first sent them, my man was stopped and both he and the oranges were escorted to Scotland Yard. They thought an attempt was being made to poison their Majesties, and hailed me before some Lord who is head of the bureau. They made me eat, in their presence, three of the fruit selected while I was not looking. "After three days of almost continuous conferences they apparently reached the conclusion that I had no designs on the life of their Majesties and permitted them to be delivered. With the best of regards, I am C. B. D. McClosky By strange coincidence the oranges delivered to their Majesties were from the pack grown on McClosky's ranch. R. R.
