SECRETARIES VILL VISIT SHOW hundred to 125 C. of C. secretaries, members of the Asn of C. of C. Secretaries of So. Calif., may be in Anaheim May 17 to visit the Orange Show and attend the State-wide industrial conference under the auspices of the California State Real Estate Assn. The organization at its monthly meeting in Santa Barbara Saturday accepted an invitation of George W. Reid, local secretary, to attend a dinner in their honor. A large percentage at least of the members is expected, largely because of the industrial program. With the combined show, conference and secretaries' visit, May 17, the second day of the show, will be one of the biggest days Anaholie has ever witnessed. Mayor C. M. Andera and President E. A. Ruth of the Santa Barbara C. of C. delivered addresses of welcome at Saturday's meeting. Frank J. Wiffler, Monrovia chamber secretary, discussed methods of obtaining new industries. His talk was followed by a round table chat in the course of which Secretary Reid told of the local holding company and the tract of 39 acres purchased. Wiffler stressed the need of a survey to show business conditions, including raw materials available, markets and transportation, previous to locating new industries. The Monrovia chamber selected eight projects out of 56 possible ones to go after he declared, and got fife of the eight. Secretary J. C. Metzgar of the Santa Ana Chamber is preparing a questionnaire which he will distribute to each secretary, which industries will be required to fill out before their proposition will be even considered. Each secretary if not approved the questionnaire, will have copies printed for his own use. The fact came out that several industries have been making the rounds from one chamber to another. If such confluence with the same questionnaire wherever they go in the Southland, they will be trying to put over unanticipated projections called Reid.

Holds Motion Picture Be Text Books "Motion pictures will be the textbooks of the schools of tomorrow," declared Professor R. S. Woodsworth, instructor in psychology, at Columbia university, after attending one of the performances of "The Hunchback of Notre Dame" in New York City. He had been keen to see the production, owing to the fact that he was a personal guest of Lon Chaney, the star, during the filming at Universal City, Calif. "Educators," continued Professor Woodsworth, "are daily realizing more and more the value of visual teaching. It is a cardinal rule of psychology that what one sees is most firmly affixed in the brain — literally photographed there. That is why advertisers use pictures to impress their wares in the public memory, and that is why teachers are coming to use motion pictures to impress historic facts and other information on the minds of children. "Take the Cathedral of Notre Dame in the universal production of Hugo's classic. Children will grow up and recall that masterpiece of architecture who otherwise would never know it from the personal standpoint, so to speak. When these children study French history or read books about that period they will connect incidents about the Cathedral with the edifice they saw in the picture. "During my visit to Universal City while the picture was in make- CLARK, GUILTY, ASKS NEW TRIAL SAN DIEGO, April 1—Attorneys for E. Drew Clark, found guilty last night by a jury of 10 men and two women on a charge of first degree murder which grew out of the disappearance of George E. Schick more than a year ago, were today preparing to request a new trial for their client. "Should our motion for a new trial be denied."

Drew Clark, found guilty last night by a jury of 10 men and two women on a charge of first degree murder which grew out of the disappearance of George E. Schick more than a year ago, were today preparing to request a new trial for their client. "Should our motion for a new trial be denied," said Arthur Dorn, chief of the defense counsel, "we shall appeal the case to a higher court." Judge Edgard A. Luce announced he will pass sentence Wednesday morning. Since the jury recommended life imprisonment, it is believed in court circles that the court will follow that direction and send Clark to San Quentin for life. The conviction was considered remarkable in that it was based wholly on circumstantial evidence. No trace of the wealthy realtor's body ever was found, and there was no eye witness to any violence. CONVICTION NOT PRECEDENT LOS ANGELES, April 1.—That the conviction in San Diego of E. Drew Clark for the murder of George E. Schick on circumstantial evidence of the corpus delicti does not establish a precedent in this state, was indicated with the discovery here today of a California supreme court decision handed down 44 years ago. In a case similar to that of Schick, the conviction of two Mexicans for the murder of John Ruhland, a rancher of Monterey County, was affirmed by the supreme court in April, 1880. The men were convicted when fragments of a few bones, too small to be identified as human, were found in a pile of ashes near the rancher's cabin after his strange disappearance. The court ruled the circumstantial evidence submitted was sufficient to establish the corpus delicti. Ruhland was never seen or heard from again after his disappearance.

They studied every detail and how it would react on the public mind, and I honestly believe that the sensational success of the completed production is due in a large measure to their understanding and appreciation of the lessons of psychology. Lon Chaney is the star of the production which is at California theatre. Others of note playing leading roles are Patay Ruth Miller, Norman Kerry, Ernest Forrence, Nigel de Brulier, Brandon Hurst and Gladys Brockwell. "The Hutchback of Notre Dame" opened in New York in the face of terrific opposition and within ten days was forced to place tickets on sale four weeks ahead. It ran for five months in one of the leading Broadway legitimate houses, and duplicated its success in the same manner in Boston, Chicago, London, San Francisco, Philadelphia and half a dozen other large cities, in the leading legitimate theatres of the country. One of the points that has astonished astute showmen is the peculiar appeal this production seems to have for women, but this is easily understood when it is explained that the romance angle of the Hugo masterpiece has been featured in the cinema version, even above the multitude of dynamic thrills with which the feature abounds. APRIL 5TH LAST DAY TO REGISTER "The minority govern, when the majority fail to register! So runs the slogan on the big black-board at 128 E. Center-st., where Dept. Co. Clerk Varnum offers the convenience of his office to all who appreciate the value of their American citizenship enough to register for the important elections this year. One registration now covers all elections for two years. "If you don't register you have no kick coming!" is the way he throws it at the political grouch. "The real 'Man without a country' is the one who can register and falls in the duty—he becomes a voluntary alien, with no country to which he can be deported." is the challenge that is thrown at the political slacker. Unless you surrender your right to vote in primaries you must, when registering, name a party which, however, does not bind you to vote any party ticket in the November election. The privilege is extended till Saturday night. Do it now "or forever after hold your political peace in silence." 10 BOOZE DEATHS TOLEDO, April 1—Toledo's toll from poison booze and "caned heat" mounted to ten this afternoon.

NO ADJOURNMENT BEFORE TAX CUT WASHINGTON, April 1—A flat challenge to congress that it will be kept in session until it passes a tax reduction bill was issued in the senate this afternoon by Senator Smoot, Republican of Utah, chairman of the senate finance committee. Smoot declared the tax bill would be reported to the senate. ANAHEIM REPORTS NO FEVER CASES Anaheim was full typhoidies today, according to Dr. J. W. Truxaw, city health officer. Dr. Truxaw added that no further regulations or recommendations had been issued by him. The coming into Anaheim of a Pullerton dairy company, which canvassed a large part of the city trying to obtain as customers residents who have given up taking milk from Santa Ana dairies during the epidemic, was a feature of the situation. Dr. R. A. Cushman resigned as chairman of the Santa Ana city board of health last night. Santa Ana council immediately elected Dr. J. I. Clark, former city health officer, a member of the health board, which will elect a chairman later. Cushman announced that since the county health board had taken over administration of the city, the council night desire to make some charges. The council warmly commended Clark for the manner in which he had handled the epidemic. Today a free clinic opened in Orange at the city hall where inoculations of anti-typhoid serum are given. Three inoculations in consecutive weeks, are given. The clinic will be open Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Fridays for three weeks. Dr. W. Leland Mitchell, county health officer, announced that all cases in Santa Ana now being reported were contact cases, that is of persons who had been associated with sufferers. AUTOIST IS HELD UNDER $1000 BAIL J. E. Johnson, Los Angeles motorist, who faced eight possible charges when he fled from a police pose in Santa Ana, was in jail under $1000 bail today, after he had pleaded his ignorance of the law and asked for lenency because he had a wife and baby. Johnson, fled from two policemen, after being caught twice and was only stopped when shots were fired at his car.

Calling a $1,500,000 improve the barbers (Continued From Page One) four other witnesses in mind who would substantiate the testimony by Jennings and Wilson concerning payment of money by Hamon in the 1920 convention. "What do you say about Jennings testimony that Hamon had paid nearly a million dollars to certain persons, including the late Senator Penrose, Harry Daugherty and Will Hays, to secure the nomination of President Harding?" asked Senator Stanfield, Republican of Oregon. "There is absolutely nothing to that," Dyche said. Jennings also said Hamon had spent $500,000 in getting the Oklahoma delegation" continued Stanfield. "That is just as false as hell. Not a man in that delegation would have accepted a cent." Dyche said he was chairman of the Oklahoma delegation to the Chicago convention in 1920. "Originally we were for General Wood for president and for Jake for committeeman. But General Wood saw fit to make Jina McGraw his Oklahoma manager, so I passed the word to the workers to adhere to Jake but left them uninstructed on the presidential nomination." After the Wood episode, Lyche said Hamon was for Lowden. Pressed closely by the senators about Jennings story of "deals" in the convention, Dyche finally interrupted and shouted: "Jake Hamon is dead and gone but I want to tell you gentlemen, and this is God's truth—Jake insisted that the delegation vote twice more for Governor Lowden. There couldn't have been a deal for Harding with Jake holding that position. We argued with him a while and we voted on the next ballot for Harding." Asked again if Hamon had used money indiscriminately with the Oklahoma delegation, Dyche said: "Absolutely not. Jake didn't even buy me a meal. Jake did not part with his money easily." NO ADJOURNMENT BEFORE TAX CUT WASHINGTON, April 1.—A flat challenge to congress that it will be kept in session until it passes a tax reduction bill was issued in the Senate this afternoon by Senator Smoot, Republican of Utah, chairman of the senate finance committee. Smoot declared the tax bill would be reported to the senate late this week and that he hoped it would pass before June 10, when the republican national convention meets. If not, Smoot gave warning that congress would be called back after the convention to finally enact the bill. CALIF. HOTEL, FULLERTON Margaret A. Shea, G. R. Lepper, F. I. Brown, S. P. Morris, J. A.

M. Peck, former United States district attorney in Oklahoma, directly charged former attorney general Harry M. Daugherty with negligence in failing to recover $500,000 worth of Oklahoma Indian lands taken from the government by fraud. Peek declared 10,000 acres of Osage and Ponca Indian lands in Oklahoma were obtained by fraud by the Miller Brothers, owners of the "101 Ranch," for which they pleaded guilty in the federal court there. Daugherty, Peck charged, permitted the brothers to keep the lands even after their conviction. Oil has since been found in the land, Peck said, and the Miller brothers still hold it. Peck charged the Miller brothers "exerted a despotic political influence in Oklahoma because of their wealth and power." "Did they plead guilty to the fraud charges?" "Yes, and they were fined in the Oklahoma federal court." "Was any effort ever made ny Daugherty to recover the lands?" "No, they still hold the land." Peck said the Miller brothers, with John C. Newton and Vick Norton, "conspired to defraud the interior department by obtaining undated deeds for the Indian lands before the government issued land grants." "How did the Indians give up these deeds?" "They usually traded at the Miller store and as soon as they ran up a bill, the brothers would get them to sign a paper," said Peck. "The Indians that they were signing a note or a mortgage, but they found out later they had signed away an undated deed to their lands." The prize close-fist has been found. He lost the ace of spades from his deck and tried to buy another ace to replace it. RED LET See Tomorrow's Doub HEIM REPORTS NO FEVER CASES In was still typhoidies according to Dr. J. W.

Reitz of Los Angeles was run over and slightly injured on Lincoln ave near the S. P. crossing by a car driven by Harry E. Kirk, local postoffice employe, according to a report filed with the Anaheim police. Kirk says that his view was obscured by another ear, and that Reitz ran directly in front of him. He was not badly hurt, Kirk said! A small storekeeper, much to the astonishment of his neighbors, suddenly disarrated his shop window with a gorgeous new blind. It was the sensation of the day, and few of his brethren failed to make some remark to him about it. "Nice blind you've got there, Isaac," said one. "Yes, Aaron." "How much did it cost you, Isaac?" "It didn't cost me anything, Aaron. My customers paid for it." "What! Your customers paid for it?" "Yes, Aaron. I put a leedle box on my counter 'For the Blind,' and they paid for it."
