BOY KILLED WHEN AUTO TURNS OVER Al Morales, 17-year-old Anaheim high school boy, was fatally injured Saturday afternoon at 5 o'clock and died that night about 11 o'clock at the Anaheim Community hospital, following an accident on East street, when the car in which he was riding ran into a mud-puddle and blinded the driver and caused him to lose control of the machine, which went into a ditch and turned turtle. The car was driven by Daniel P. Clemmer, 119 West South street, a companion of Morales. Herbert Frueh, a friend of the two boys, was in the car with them, but was not injured. Clemmer was pinned beneath the car, but his injuries were not serious. Morales was flung out of the car by the roadside. "I was driving north on East street at the rate of 25 miles an hour," Clemmer told the police, "and went into a mud-puddle, which blinded us all and I lost control of the car and went into the ditch. As soon as I came to I looked for Al and Herb, and as I got up Herb came walking towards me, and Al was laying on the ground at the rear of the car. A passing motorist picked us up. He drove a Dodge." Morales was taken home, and it is said got out of the car without assistance and walked into the house, evidently not seriously hurt. Then presently he began to cry, and was taken to the hospital, where he died from the result, it is said, of internal injuries. It is said the left side and breast were badly scraped, probably crushed internally. The body was taken to the funeral parlors of Backs, Terry and Campbell, where an inquest was held at 10 o'clock this morning. A funeral rosary service has been announced for 7:30 o'clock this evening from the funeral parlors, Rev. Patrick Browne of the local St. Boniface Catholic church reciting. Mass will be held at St. Boniface churches tomorrow morning at 9:30 o'clock, leaving the funeral parlors at 9:15 o'clock. J. A. Clayes, the high school principal, will permit Morales' comrades to attend the funeral services on masse. Morales was a member SUES HUSBAND WHO FIRED GUN AT HER Myrtle J. Kiser, wife of Ellijah F. Kiser, who tried to kill her, a roomer and himself in Santa Ana Aug. 29, firing several shots, today filed suit for divorce from her husband, giving the near-tragedy as the cause. Rumors that the suit would come have been pending for a long while, based mainly upon the common sense of the matter. Mrs. Kiser also told friends she was in fear of her life. Her fear deterred her at the same time from filing the suit. Kiser finally used a razor on himself, but recovered at the Orange county hospital, in spite of a heavy loss of blood. The complaint recites that the couple separated July 26, over a month before the shooting. Kiser appears to have been brooding over the separation even since, with unjust suspicion of a roomer in the house as the final straw on the bonfire. The couple have no children and no community property. ASK FUND FOR WAR ON FAKE BROKERS SACRAMENTO, Oct. 15. — Henry P. Barbour, newly elected president of the California Real Estate Association, declared today that probably his first official act will be a request that Governor Richardson provide funds for the state real estate commission to make war on unscrupulous land dealers. "The policy of the organization will be based on two principles" said Barbour. "These will be the application of the words 'realtor' as meaning high ideals and ethics and the strict observance of the state license law. It is the duty of every member of the association to live up to these principles and raise the standard of the organization to a higher level of moral and ethical standards."

POSTPONE RACES BECAUSE OF RAIN KANSAS CITY, Oct. 15. — Rain so affected the big wooden sander here FRUIT RAISERS AFTER RAIL CUTS SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 15. — Eastern consumers and California producers of fruit are alike interested in the proceedings brought by the California Growers and Shippers’ Protégio league against the transcontinental railroads for a reduction of rates. The case is to be heard next month by the interstate commerce commission in San Francisco. Because of the importance to California interests the California railroad commission has petitioned for leave to intervene as a party to the case. Prior to the war increases the rate on deciduous fruits from all Pacific coast shipping points to practically all destination points within the United States was $1.15 per 100 lbs. The first order of the director-general of railroads, effective June 25, 1918, increased the rate to $1.44 per 100 lbs., and on August 26, 1920, in compliance with the order of the interstate commerce commission, which followed the passage by Congress of the transportation act, the rate was increased to $1.92 per 100 lbs. Effective Jan. 1, 1922, the rate was reduced to $1.73 per 100 lbs., which rate is in effect at the present time to designated points in the extreme eastern territory. There is at the same time in effect a rate of $1.62 per 100 lbs. to points in the middle-western territory. The fruit shippers are endeavoring to have the rate re-established on the basis of $1.44 per 100 lbs., which rate was in effect on June 25, 1918, and blanketed practically the entire United States.
