BLAMES LIFE OF CITY FOR CRIME SAN PRANCISCO, Dec. 29. "It was the city that did it. No matter how much money you make in the city, you spend more and that's where trouble begins for young fellows. I'm sorry I took the money and would not do it again." Thus at the city prison today did Dale Rowan, farmer-boy bank teller, who at 23 faces a long prison term as a result of his theft of $47,200 from the Bank of Italy, described his dilemma. Rowan was arrested at Salinas with his childhood sweetheart, Georgina M. Brown, when together they returned to her home near there, after successfully eluding officers for six months. Mother love and the desire to spend Christmas with her children brot them back. "I am going to stick to Dale Rowan to the end. He has done everything in his power for me and it was thru his love and desire to care for me that he took the bank's funds I feel. He has been a daddy, a husband and a sweetheart to me." This was the declaration of Mrs. Brown, nuburn-haired beauty, who has been his companion in his wanderings since the theft of the bank funds and who lived with him in San Francisco before he became a fugitive. According to her story, they were brot up together in San Luis Obispo but separated when their families moved. She married unhappily and then fate brot them together in San Francisco a year ago. A representative of the bonding company which made good the young teller's defalcation was speeding to Utah today armed with power of attorney to open safety deposit boxes, convert real estate and realize as much as possible from the loot remaining. Rowan estimated he had spent approximately $10,000. Upon the BREA NEWS BREA, Dec. 29. (Spl)—Mrs. J. T.

CLAIM MUSSOLINI SHOULD RESIGN HOME, Dec. 20.—The Fascist organ of Premier, Mussolini Popolo D'Italia, in an article today did not deny the authenticity of the Rossi document which charged Mussolini and the Fascists with influencing various disorders, including the death of the Socialist deputy, Matteotti. The article stated that the Rossi charges are unproved and that Rossi is raising a smoke screen to shield himself. Opposition newspapers were bitter in their attacks and comment on Mussolini. They declared that Mussolini cannot hold an election until the Rossi charges have been disproved. Mussolini should resign at once, opposition papers declared. He never was so strongly accused and there should be a judicial inquiry made of the charges, it said. Mussolini emphatically refuses to resign, he told a Fascist editor, who interviewed him. "I am not alarmed by the insistent campaign of my adversaries," he said. "The Fascists who have achieved victories in the past must continue to work hard for the fierce battle which is coming and from which he will emerge triumphant. The tactics of the opposition only tend to improve our discipline." each of whom is a qualified elector of the election present in and which he is appointed, are hereby appointed Board of Election in Anaheim Precinct No. 12 Consolidated, to serve in the capacity herein designated and to conduct special election therein as required by law: Inspector—Jason B.

DENY DAWES PLAN NOW ENDANGERED PARIS, Dec. 29.—Government circles flatly denied today that a continuation of the Cologne occupation by troops of the allies would endanger the carrying out of the Dawes plan for the rehabilitation to Germany. It was pointed out by government officials that the Dawes experts urged the necessity of evacuating the Ruhr, but no mention was made of the left bank of the Rhine. High French officials declared that the Dawes plan was drawn up taking the Cologne occupation into consideration. The French government protests against Germany calling the continuation of the occupation "sanction." There is no "sanction" about it, officials declared, but it is simply a fulfillment of the clause of the Versailles treaty governing the situation. Details relating to a continuation of the occupation of Cologne were discussed today by Premier Herriot, War Minister Nollet, Gen. Guillaumat, commander in chief of the German occupational army, and M. Tirard, Rhineland high commissioner. The French government today submitted to its allies the French draft of the proposed note which AQUETANIA STILL SAFE AFTER STORM ABOARD THE AQUETANIA, Dec. 29.—(By radio to the Int. News Service). After two days' struggle against a full gate of hurricane forces and tremendous seas, the Cuard liner Aquentania today was gradually increasing its speed, with the expectation of reaching New York behind schedule but without threat of disaster. Saturday's run was 220 miles and Sunday's 252, the lowest two days' run in the vessel's record. Capt. Charles wished it to be made clear that the ship is abutlessly undamaged, the personnel well and the passengers are in the best of spirits. Eighty-foot waves have beaten against the ship or broken the crests over its highest decks. The passengers have danced in the garden lounge while the wind howled and the storm beat against the windows as the liner slowly made bare steering way into the scale. the ambassador's council is to send to Germany Jan. 10. The note contains the specific reasons why France believes the occupational troops should remain at Cologne. In submitting the French draft of the note the French government suggested that the note be adopted as the official interallied note to Berlin. No answer has been received from the allies late today. Campaign of Lies against Southern California people realize the extent to Los Angeles and surrounding areas maligned during the past papers throughout the United States have published one senator after another, intended to readers from leaving home.
