WILL EXTEND THE SCOPE,

Cities.
Discussing How Best to Increase
the Organizations USE
fulneSs.

The executive committee of the Manu-
facturers' and Producers Association dis
cussed the question of extending the scope
and membership of the organization at its
session yesterday afternoon. Since the
22d Of March the association has sprung
from an idea to a body of 300 members
but its projectors are not contented with
such slow advancement, and are planning
now to increase the list to the 1000 mark.
The object of the meeting was the dis
.cussion Of means for the promotion of the
purposes of the association and extending
its membership.
r. s. Moore proposed that each member
present to the secretary twenty-five or
thirty names of persons with whom cor
respondence might be opened to the end
that they might be induced TO become
members.
Louis Saroni presented the names of six
teen applicants for membership, and Mr..
Mead added dozen more.
Mr.. Saroni remarked that it would be
well to work without delay in getting Los
Angeles interested.

idea put in Mr.. McGlynn.
Julian Sonntag stated that he had been

MT. Moore replied that the northern
cities in question had nothing in common
with San Francisco. They were engaged
IN fighting TO keep trade and contract work
at home. The manufacturers OF those
cities would go TO great efforts to keep
work in their midst.
Mr.. Sonntag took exception to the last
speakers idea. There are many things,
he continued, ''that those northern cities
cannot manufacture, and they are COM
PEELED to send such work to Chicago or
New York or San Francisco. Now, by
pushing our interests up there and culti-
waiting proper friendly feeling, we can

come up," said Mr.. Saroni, 1.-THE cities OF

ments This was all right as far as it
went, as the bonds are quoted at par In the
market but the only mistake of Decker
appears to have been that he had none OF
the bonds mentioned and could not at the
expiration of the installment limit turn
them over to the purchaser. Notwith-
standing this Decker went into the busl-
ness on large scale and sold bonds or
rather the promise to deliver them, to hun
dreds of people, from whom he has been
collecting monthly installments ranging
from 81 to SIS. Many of these purchases
were made by mail and the buyers are
scattered all over the State.
Decker recently went to Angels Camp,
where he met with considerable success. in
the sale of his bonds. Unfortunately for
him, however some of these purchasers
while in the city called at 323 Montgomery
street and were informed that the German
Austrian Bond Investment Company was
myth, and that Wiesen q Co. had no ex-
istence except in Decker's fertile magma
ton. The result was several loud and Wig
orous complaints to the police.
Decker was formerly In the employ OF
NJ. Solomon & Co., the brokers at 821 Market
street. Mr.. Solomon when asked to state
his views said:
Decker is swindler who is obtaining
money by false pretenses. He has been
working on large scale and his victims
are numerous, no doubt. He came here
from Chicago about two years ago, and on
leaving my employ embarked in the bond
selling business without dollar of capital.
The fact is he has no bonds and cannot de-
liver the goods. | notified Chief Crowley
of Decker's scheme some time ago, but no
action could be taken until formal COM

understand, has been done, and none too
SOON"
Efforts to see Decker Yesterday proved
fruitless. He has desk at 304 Montgom-
cry street, but there is no sign to indicate
his business. He is scarcely known to the
other occupants of the place and has taken
none of them into his confidence.

Taking his text from Exodus xii:24
"And We shall observe this thing for an
ordinance to thee and thy children for
ever" Rabbi NJ. s. Levy said:
Nothing in any religion is more wonderful
than is the institution of the Passover in the
Mosaic code. Not only for its antiquity Is il re-
markable, but the spiritual ideas associated
with its celebra ton are still more wonderful.
No change in religious thought would be
worthy of serious consideration if the change
attempted to interfere with festival so dear
to every Jewish home, and identified with all
the struggles of the races history, for in the
Passover celebration the grandest possibilities
and highest hopes of the Jewish love for liberty
and human rights are centralized. In the
ourselves with the only freedom worth possess
ing, a freedom that permits of an enlargement
to peoples energy, intellect and moral vir-
tues. The growth and power as the aim and
end of liberty, is progress; without this peo-
pie may have the name, but lack the spirit OF
freedom Who then is free? The wise, who
well maintains the empire of firmness, and re-
lying on himself is loyal enough to proclaim
allegiance to his God.
More than thirty centuries ago Israel was
emancipated from slavery. To-day q bondage
awful in its consequences still shackles q large
portion of the human family. Self-indulgence
and gross materiality, so conspicuous among
the well-to-do families, is form of slavery
that bodies little good to the rising generation.
There is too much aping of our neighbors and
too little regard to the glorious heritage OF
which the Passover is messenger. Every
honest laborer engaged in Jewish affairs must
ference, and with deep humiliation declare
that the traditions of his race are on the wane.
The Passover with its spiritual forces is a
beacon-ight on the ocean of time pointing to
a harbOr of safety where IsraepS shin NAV
safely ride the present tempest. Take heed,
my friends, and welcome the message and the
observance, (which you and your children are
to keep forever" by celebrating the Passover
unto the Lord, by emancipating yourselves
from error, and thus be physically and spiritu-
ally free.

setting in to aid us. Our prime object is to
improve California; but if assisting the
improvement of neighboring States works
to the advantage of California, why, we are
fulfilling the objects of this association By
broadening our field of action"
MI. Currler observed that if we would
invite neighboring States, it would GER
talnly produce friendly feeling; but just
at present the associations hands were
full, ana California was contract enough
for the time being.
On motion of Mr.. Saroni, the committee
decided to bring the matter of extending
the associations scope to sister States of
the Pacific Coast before the regular meet
ing of directors.

He picked himself up and wondered
what had struck him. He stepped eau

Grrrrr-biff!
This time his fall made such racket
that his wife came to the door and
wanted to know what on earth was the
matter with her hubby that he couldn't
walk up the front stoop steps without
waking up the neighborhood.
He said nothing. In fact, he could
not have spoken if he had tried, such
