STEPS TAKEN TO INCREASE RESERVES
WASHINGTON, March 25.—Steps to increase the nation's naval oil reserves and to conserve the available oil supply were taken this afternoon by President Coolidge.
The president appointed a commission of three members whose duty it will be to study the oil problem and to make recommendations for assuring the navy an adequate supply of fuel for war emergency and at all other times.
The members of the commission are: George Otis Smith, director of the United States geological survey; Rear Admiral Hillary P. Jones of the general naval board, and R. D. Bush of the bureau of mineralogy of the state of California.
It was pointed out officially at the White House that at the present rate of production there is estimated to be but twenty years, of oil supply within the limits of the United States.
"When this is exhausted the United States will be dependent upon foreign sources for its supply," it was stated. "In times of war such supply will certainly be jeopardized and possibly cut off unless, therefore, the navy has conserved in this country sufficient oil wherewith to fight a war, the national security is seriously endangered."

RENEW FIGHT ON CATTLE DISEASE
SAN FRANCISCO, March 25. While additional federal reinforcements were being rushed here to aid in the battle, the state of California was today mustering all resources for a determined effort to wipe out the hoof and mouth disease as a result of "flare-ups" which caused San Francisco and Los Angeles counties to be placed under quarantine. Stock believed affected were found to have been shipped to both cities.
The most rigid quarantine regulations will be enforced in both San Francisco and Los Angeles counties, city authorities co-operating with the state and federal authorities, it was announced.
Additional restrictions on other sections are expected. Many county authorities today were plan-strict county line guards to any attempts to move cattle in one section to another.
While characterized as "Hare-ups" the appearance of the disease simultaneously in the two widely separated districts caused concern. In Merced and Mariposa counties a serious epidemic has been discovered and drastic steps are being taken there. Stanislaus, Madera and Fresno counties have been placed under provisional quarantine as "buffalo" counties around Merced and Mariposa.

The driver of the stage easily could have stomped and averted the trouble, it was added.
The widow and children of Mrs. Eff filed the damage suit.

MANNINGTON WILLING TO TESTIFY
By FRANK E. MASON
I N. S. Staff Correspondent)
(Copyright 1924 by International News Service)
PARIS, March 25.—Howard Mannington of Columbus, Ohio, confidential friend of Attorney General Daugherty, whose testimony is desired by the Wheeler senatorial committee investigating the attorney general's activities told International News Service in an exclusive statement today that he is willing to testify voluntarily.
"I expect to return to the United States as soon as my business here is completed," said Mannington.
"That probably will be within a month."
"I am perfectly willing to testify before the senate committee if they call me."
Mannington was told of a report that the senate was attempting to communicate with him thrue the American diplomatic force in Paris to ask him to return to Washington to testify.
"I have not heard anything from Myron T. Herrick, the U.S. ambassador, about my returning to testify," continued Mannington.
"But I am perfectly willing to appear before the senate committee if it is desired."

Contractors Eliminated at Joint Meeting of Councils Last Night
The joint outfall sewer will be in operation within 10 days.
This was the result of last night's conference in Santa Ana of the city councils of Anaheim, Fullerton, Santa Ana and Orange.
Garden Grove will be admitted on terms outlined below.
DeWaard & Cobham will have been paid all told $48,474 and it will cost approximately $10,000 to complete the work.
The contractors, who now give up the contract, bid $43,720 for the construction of the ocean section of the sewer. Santa Ana will complete their work by day labor.
The work consists of the laying of 350 feet of pipe into the ocean. Lack of this section will not prevent use of the sewer.
If the matter had come to the courts, the city councils would have won unquestionably, according to City Manager O. E. Steward, but the contractors could have held up the completion of the sewer indefinitely, and this would have seriously inconvenienced the cities, particularly Santa Ana.
The agreement with Garden Grove, which had representatives present, was:
1. That said district pay for and own 2 1/2 p.c. of the Joint Outfall Sewer and Treatment Plant.
2. That said district pay for and own 4 p.c. of Section 2 of the Joint Outfall Sewer, being that portion from Garden Grove to the Treatment Plant.
3. That said district pay for all the extra expense caused by change in construction required by citizens of said locality, amounting to approximately $1200.00.
4. That said district agree to pay its proportionate part of the expense of maintenance, operation and reconstruction of said Joint Outfall Sewer and Treatment Plant and in addition pay annually a sum as rental for the right of way and Treatment Farm equal to 5 per cent of 2 per cent

IT opened under most auspicious circumstances! Why, the 1924 Spring Fashion Show in the California theatre this afternoon. Anxious ticket purchasers found that with all the big program, picture, extra music, showing of wonderful gowns, etc., there had been no raise in the price of admission. And the line was not all feminine, either. There were men just as anxious to see the latest in wearing apparel as were the women.
The show this afternoon was nicely balanced. The comic, much of the special music, and the so-called "short stuff" had a first place on the program, then came the style exhibition.
Miss Schuyler certainly proved all her claims in efficient handling and successful staging of this feature. The way in which she had other models placed was most effective, and the natural adaptability of these young women, who are not of the ordinary type, was remarkable. The stately girl with the gorgeous evening gown, the petite blonde who so appropriately wore the girlish dress with a hat just to suit her individual "bob," the girl with the flashing eye and the dimpling smile, in the rich fur, from under which peeped the lovely gay gown, all seemed to have been in the eye of the designer as he pinned anducked and wrapped his yardage about his inanimate model in the tiny shop where just such creations are dreamed and brought to perfection.
An enumeration of all the pretty combinations of style and color would be impossible. Only a visit to the show will serve the real purpose. And to think that all these things are right here in Anaheim stores!
When Stroup-Barnes said they would lend some of their loveliest draperies and furnishing and eushions and lamps, the observer was satisfied it would mean something pretty nice, but only a sight of the softly blended colors of rich upholstery and shaded lights, can give an understanding. Even the flowers furthered the motif of spring and loveliness.
The picture, "Pleasure Mad," a drama of love and luxury, from Blanche Upright's novel, "The Valley of Content," was chosen for its particular features coinciding with the showing of fine clothes. The music, provided by Adrian McDowell's Dixie Syncopaters, through the courtesy of the Perluss Dancing Academy, was easily the best of the kind heard in Anaheim in many a moon. Those jazzy strains at the proper time, and the mellow, flowing harmony of others, seemed to melt into one's very being in perfect according with the moment.
After the other three showings tonight, tomorrow afternoon and tomorrow night, when two picture programs with the style show arranged so that late comers to the first show will not miss it, Messrs. and Mesdames Anaheim will but have to call upon the exhibitors, McDonald's Shoppe, Sebastian Bros., Mary Millerlek Shop, S. Q. R. Store, J. C. Penney & Co., Freda's Hat Shop and Hunt & Tellam, and be outfitted from tip to toe.
Kiwanis Double Quartet Will Advertise Anaheim at Denver
Anaheim Kiwians voted today to stage an entertainment of some kind by which to raise expenses of sending the double quartet to the club's international convention at Denver in June. The musicians who would advertise Anaheim so widely are M. Eugene Durfee, A. B. McCord, tenors; H. W. Lewis and Warren Ashleigh, second tenors; Reginald Taylor and J. P. Probst, baritone; L. P. Bonnat and E. C. Rundstrom, basses.
In response to this generous impulse, the musicians were more open-handed than usual with their encore numbers today.
Wm. Wallop, past president and trustee, and Harry Horn were Lew Wester, former president of the La Habra club, invited the club to attend an entertainment, "The Toonerville Society Circus," to be held April 3-4. The neighboring club expects to sell 2,000 tickets. Secretary Harry I Horn must know by Tuesday who is going.
Henry Adams was to have read his autobiography, but said he wasn't prepared. Homer Ames thereupon rose, declaring that he had prepared himself for such an emergency, and read Adams' "autobiography" himself.
Frank B. Harden read an alleged letter to himself from a Swede cousin which convulsed the crowd.
JOINED IN CONSPIRACY
Say He Urged McKinney to Testify Falsely to Explain $100,000
WASHINGTON, March 25—The formal certification of Harry F. Sinclair, oil magnate, for contempt of the U. S. senate was placed in the hands of the district attorney here today for action.
It was signed this morning by Senator H. Moses of New Hampshire.
The next step is for the district attorney to place Sinclair under technical arrest, pending presentation of the matter to a federal grand jury here next week.
WASHINGTON, March 25—Clarence C. Chase, son-in-law of Ex-Secretary of the Interior or Fall, whose activities in the oil scandal, caused the senate to pass a resolution calling on the house to impeach him, resigned his position as collector of customs at El Paso just before taking the stand before the senate oil committee Monday, it was learned this afternoon.
WASHINGTON, March 25—Striking with spectacular swiftness, the senate this afternoon passed a resolution formally calling upon the house of representatives to impeach Clarence C. Chase, son-in-law of Albert B. Fall and a collector of customs at El Paso, Texas.
Chase was charged with entering into a conspiracy with Fall to deceive the oil investigating committee and with an attempt at "subordination of perjury" in having urged Price McKinney of Cleveland to testify he loaned Fall $100,000,"when he knew no such loan was ever made."
The charge made Chase subject to impeachment because of his federal office.
The resolution sponsored by Senator Walsh, dominant figure in the oil investigation, grew out of Chase's recent refusal to testify before the committee on the ground that "his testimony might tend to incriminate him."
If impeached and convicted by a trial in the senate, Chase will be removed from office and pro-
Seek 3 Youths Who Attacked 2 Girls With Poison Needles
LOS ANGELES, March 25.
