The girl's sacrifice came after two brothers of the racing driver, David and Pat Gannon, volunteered to undergo the operation, but were both rejected because of chemical differences in their blood and that of the injured man.

One of the largest out-of-the-county delegations will come from Glendale, which has reserved 25 places at the luncheon. The Community Industrial Land Co. directors and industrial committee of the Anaheim C., of C. will be particularly welcome to attend. The session including the luncheon will be open to all businessmen. It is hoped to have 25 secretaries of C.'s of C. in So. Calif. present. Some 57 have been invited.

White of Santa Ana president of the State body, will preside, and President Sidnam will deliver the address of welcome. The program follows: "Building Payrolls in California." Charles S.

Afternoon session, 2 p.m. "What Industries Must Be Located on Railway Track Frontage" OPPOSED TO RADIO BILL JUST NOW WASHINGTON, Dec. 6.—Virtual withdrawal of the support of Secretary of Commerce Hoover to any radio legislation at the present session congress was announced today. Altho a strong advocate of the White Radio bill at the last session, Hoover now regards development of the radio art as progressing so rapidly that drastic regulatory legislation at this time would be dangerous. Secretary Hoover disputed his recommendations relative to radio to Rep White, Rep. of Maine, chairman of the marine and fisheries committee today. He urged that the committee go slow on radio legislation until the industry's development has reached a more even plane and until changes in broadcasting practices are less likely. From members of the marine and fisheries committee, which has charge of radio legislation in the house, it was learned there is opposition to Hoover's new position. Some members wanted to appeal directly to the president to get the administration support to the White bill which was presented at the last session of congress. Rep White, while undersood to have no objection to a compromise bill stands for the adoption of some variety of radio legislation before the curtain drops on the sixty-eighth congress. The government is now operating under a radio bill passed in 1912 which is obsolete. Hoover is virtually dictator over radio. However, committee members say the "dictatorship" might fall into the hands of an official less sympathetic with radio science than Hoover and that a chaotic condition would be precipitated. For this reason White, backed by his committee, stands for a new radio bill. Department of commerce officials are particularly opposed to a provision of the White bill saying that two brothers of the racing driver, David and Pat Gannon, volunteered to under go the operation, but were both rejected because of chemical differences in their blood and that of the injured man.

Hemmlin, formerly of Anaheim, on a complicity charge scheduled to be held in Los Angeles this month. "It'll be the finest day I've ever had in my life," Findlay said today at the county jail, where he was spent most of the past eleven months, waiting trial and serving short sentence. He has been a trusty "most of the time, keeps the jail 'store' and participates in nangaroo courts." "When are you going out?" he asked. "Sunday," he answered quietly, "it's to be Thanksgiving day for my wife and I and our four children. They've waited for me." Past middle age, Findlay faces the task of finding work so that his family may be maintained. "I don't know what I will do," but I have to do something. They tell me that outside it is pretty hard finding anything to do." MAKE XMAS COIN BY KILLING RATS The war on rats in Anaheim will open here in earnest tomorrow, it is announced, following preliminary work done by Wm. P. Webb Sr., and Miss Ann May Wright. Miss Wright is working in conjunction with Miss Helen A. Caldwell, and the two are using federal methods against the rodents. The campaign is to continue until Dec. 13. A bonus of five cents each is offered by Mr. Webb for the first 300 rats brot to the police station during the week. Citizens are urged, and are compelled by law to support the drive and kill the rats on their own or also pay for someone of the four flyers. JAPAN READY TO DISCUSS ARMAMENT TOKYO, Dec. 5.—Japan will consider sympathetically any proposals for a disarmament conference coming from the United States. This information was given to International News Service here today by officials of the Japanese foreign office. Statements that Japan opposes limitation of auxiliary war craft are entirely unofficial, the foreign office officials declared. These unofficial statements have been pounced upon by the "irresponsible Japanese press," and mistakenly broadcast around the world as the official Japanese viewpoint officials added. As a matter of fact, the foreign office further told International News Service, the Japanese government has never officially discussed the empire policy in regard to a second arms conference except for the one consideration of a friendly attitude toward a proposal for such a conference coming from Washington. There has been no Japanese cabinet action in regard to any conference, however, officials said. Reports that Japan intends to pursue any fixed policy in this connection are premature, the foreign office emphasized. It is the belief in unofficial Japanese quarters, however, that France's opposition to limitation of auxiliary war craft remains yet unchanged and that this French attitude which has already delayed the calling of a second arms meeting would make doubtful the success a world conference might have. STRIKE RETURNS KNOWN TONIGHT SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 5.—Returns from the strike vote being taken by 6000 engineers and firemen on the So.Pac. (Pacific system), the El Paso and Southwestern and the Arizona Eastern Railroads were being counted at brotherhood headquarters here today and the result will probably be known late tonight, it was said by T. G. Griffith, grand engineer. C.S. Chapman Obtains Temporary Injunction Against Fullerton An injunction suit was pending against the city of Fullerton today because its trustees authorized $2800-paid for the recent dry crusade. Seeking to restrain payment of the sum to Edward E. Ward, investigator, was C. S. Chapman. A temporary order enjoins payment was issued late yesterday by Superior Judge R. Y. Williams at Santa Ana. A date for a hearing has not been set. The city, members of the board and Mae Reeves, city treasurer, are made defendants. Payment of the dry raid bill would be wrongful and without proper authority, Chapman's suit alleges. Monday night, the board authorized payment of the bill, presented by Ward, who said Anaheim, Orange and Santa Ana would be asked to pay proportionate amounts. Ward, Chapman's suit alleges, is a private detective. He was not hired by the city, Itaelf, the protestant claims, but Instead individuals employed him and his assistants to investigate liquor conditions. Ward worked 68 days, his bill was said to have set forth. Most of this time, Chapman avers the investigator and his cohorts were working in other places than Fullerton. Specific attack is made on the warrant ordering payment. The action alleges it was not subscribed to or verified or sworn to by Ward. Neither was it itemized, the suit declares. These are held to be requisites under the ordinance of 1915 under which payment would be allowed. Attorneys Marka, Launis and Collins drew up the complaint. Acting as Chapman's bondsmen pending the outcome of the injunction hearing are R. T. Davies and H. G. Maxwell. A fight is not likely to feature the Santa Ana council meeting if a bill is presented to it at that city's share of the recent dry raid expense. The bill is not likely to have any supporters—it simply won't be paid. The foregoing was the opinion expressed today by Mayor John W. Tubbs of Santa Ana, who said he thought his views would coincide with those of the other trustees. "The city of Santa Ana won't give a penny for the raids, if I have my way." Mayor Tubbs said. "We certainly didn't contract for them. In fact, we didn't know anything about them until after they were over." Anybody coming into the council with a dry raid bill will be at any time since May.

The campaign is to continue until Dec. 13. A bonus of five cents each is offered by Mr. Webb for the first 200 rats brot to the police station during the week. Citizens are urged, and are compelled by law to support the drive and kill the rats on their own premises, or else pay for someone else doing so. The poison used is barium carbonate, mixed with food of any kind, which is deadly to rats but not to human beings. It is said. This can be purchased at practically any drug store. SUIT TO ESTABLISH VALIDITY OF TAX WASHIGNTON, Dec. 5.—A suit to establish the validity of the California community property tax was filed today in the D. of C. supreme court by Chas. F. Guy and his wife, Carrie N. Guy of Los Angeles. The Guys filed the suit against Secy. of the Treasury Mellon and Internal Revenue Commissioner Blair, alleging that money collected from them separately on account of federal income tax had been illegally assessed. They asked that the court require the officials to show cause why the money thus paid to the treasury should not be returned to them. ARBUCKLE TO WED LOS ANGELES, Dec. 5.—As soon as Mrs. Minta Durfee Arbuckle obtains a divorce decree now being sought in Paris, Roscoe (Patty) Arbuckle will marry Miss Doris-Deane, screen actress, formerly of San Francisco, it was reported here today. Miss Deane was at one time reported engaged to marry Jack Dempsey, the pugilist. Arbuckle, who is living in the home of Gouverneur Morris, the author, at Monterey, denied the report despite the fact his friends in Hollywood said it was true.

(Pacific system), the El Paso and Southwestern and the Arizona Eastern Railroads were being counted at brotherhood headquarters here today and the result will probably be known late tonight, it was said by T. G. Griffing, grand engineer, Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers, who is in San Francisco directing the walkout bid. Griffing would make no comment as to how the returns were showing. The strike vote was taken by the engineers and firemen of three roads in spite of the United States labor board decision recently granting wage increases and more favorable working conditions to locomotive employees of several western and southwestern roads, including the lines affected by the walkout vote. "The labor board's decision does not meet our demands," Griffing explained earlier in the week. DOUBLE SHOOTING BEFORE OFFICER STOCKTON, Dec. 5.—Crazed by infatuation, Martin W. Maskus, clerk, forced his entrance into the apartment of Mrs. Walter P. Rothenbush, wife of the steward of the Native Sons Club, and after shooting her thru the head, turned the gun upon himself. He lived until midnight and Mrs. Rothenbush was rushed to the Emergency hospital where she lived until $8 a.m. today. The shooting occurred in the fashionable Henry-Apts, and in the presence of L. A. L. Owens of the police department, who had been called to the apartment. Maskus acted so quickly that he was powerless to prevent the double killing. $50 FOR DRINKING M. J. Walker, negro bootblack, who was picked up recently by the local police on the charge of intoxication, appeared before Judge Ruchal today, and entered a plea of guilty, and was fined $50. THE bill is not likely to have any supporters—it simply won't be paid. The foregoing was the opinion expressed today by Mayor John W. Tubbs of Santa Ana, who said he thought his views would coincide with those of the other trustees. "The city of Santa Ana won't give a penny for the raids, if I have my way." Mayor Turbbs said. "We certainly didn't contract for them. In fact, we didn't know anything about them until after they were over." "Anybody coming into the council with a dry raid bill will be running into a hornet's nest." Tubbs apparently was not aware that a Santa Ana city ordinance provides payment of $100 for evidence in each case where conviction is obtained. PLEDGED TO NEW COAST HIGHWAY SACRAMENTO, Dec. 5.—Pledged to bring about construction of a new coast highway stretching from the Mexican border at San Diego to Vancouver, Canada, the Pacific highway Ass'n with headquarters in Oakland, today filed articles of incorporation with Secy. of State Frank C.

It was with the idea of returning the money to Sir Hurri or if he refused to give it to charity, Mrs. Maude Robinson declared. She said Charles Robinson, her husband, had signed a deed of trust guaranteeing this at any time since this store was opened a year ago last May.

C., Dec. 5.—Native sons of Canada today began a drive to exclude all orientals from entering British Columbia, with the big push to have its maximum force during the full 12 months of 1925. Acting under orders from a meeting held Thursday night, a special committee opened communication with all the principal service and fraternal clubs of Vancouver with the purpose of organizing a convention for the first or second week in the new year, at which schemes will be discussed to keep British Columbia for the white races. TUSTIN BANDIT GETS 60 CENTS His inability to open a cash register cost a youthful highwayman at Trustin last night to lose out on more than $50 in it, and instead he escaped from the store of W. D. Grival with 60 cents, this amount being left outside the register. Grival and his wife were alone in the establishment about 6:20 p.m. when a youth, described to Deputy Sheriff Dan Adams, as 25 years old, sought to make a purchase. When Grival was thus brought close to the cash register the man pulled a gun on him. A red handkerchief served to hide facial characteristics. The store-keeper's fright, however, came when the youth became too nervous to open the register and the gun, pointed at Grival was twitched from side to side. Mrs. Grival obeyed an order to remain in her chair and not to shout. Unable to work the register, the youth took some change lying outside, said to be but 60 cents and disappeared.

Cal. Dry Leader Says Many Complain of Orange-co. Laxity Orange-co. district attorney's and sheriff's offices came in for criticism today from Dr. S. T. Montgomery, superintendent of the Anti-Saloon League for So. Calif., in a letter to S. M. Davis of Santa Ana. Despite the fact that federal and special dry law enforcement investigators recently made one of the biggest raids in the history of the country and reported there were at least 500 bootleggers operating in Orange Co. Dr. Montgomery says that when, in response to many complaints from Orange-co. citizens of laxity in enforcement of the law, Dist. Atty. A. P. Nelson was offered assistance, Nelson said he did not need any help "as the county was clean." Dr. Montgomery also charges that the district attorney's and sheriff's offices misrepresented matters to Superior Judge Williams. The following letters speak for themselves: The Plain Dealer: Dec. 4, 1924. Enclosed please find copy of an answer to a letter received yesterday from Mr. Davis of Santa Ana. I was glad of the opportunity of making a full statement as to what had taken place in Orange co. I also feel that this information should be in your hands for there are many reports circulating that are not based upon facts. In this letter I frankly state what has happened and how it happened. I am also calling your attention to the fact that if we are to have successful law enforcement the better people must at least lend their moral support when the cases come before the courts. I have a report from one who was present in the case in Santa Ana where Mr. Nelson was found guilty by the jury, with the recommendation of clemency, and fined $100. It usually costs more than $100 to get a violator like Mr. Nelson and I am of the opinion that if the judge in this case had been conscious of the fact that the good people were watching him and back of him, the limit, $500 in each case, would have been given. I am also informed by persons present that they heard many men in the audience say from time to time." That is another one we can depend on to hang the jury." We are thankful that they were mistaken. Nelson was one of the very bad violators of the law. He told the operators time and again that he had protection and could got protection for them if they ever got in trouble. If I am correctly informed concerning the argument presented by the city attorney it would be of interest for you and your people to SAYS SHE WANTED TO RETURN MONEY LONDON, Dec. 5.—The beautiful blonde matron whose favors coat Sir Hurri Singh of Kashmir $750,000 dramatically declared today that her husband's suit to recover the bulk of the money had a laudable purpose. It was with the idea of returning the money to Sir Hurri or if he refused to give it to charity, Mrs. Maude Robinson declared. She said Charles Robinson, her husband, had signed a deed of trust guaranteeing this disposition of any funds obtained in his suit against the Midland Bank. Mrs. Robinson's statement was understood to be the first step toward appealing the adverse decision returned by Lord Darling. NONE AUTHORIZED Nobody has been authorized by the Pacific Telephone & Telegraph Co., to publish a telephone directory and the numbers in such directory would not be recognized by the company, E. A.

The first amendment by McKellar of Tennessee, would prohibit Muscle Shoals from falling into the hands of any foreign citizen or corporation. The other, by McNary of Oregon, proposed that the dam properties, should they be leased, be controlled by the federal trade commission. GAS TURNED ON SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 5.—Mrs. Wm. F.
