THE GUATEMALA EXPOSITION
Al Interview With Carlton n. Clark, the
California Commissioner
California VIII Be Well Represented and oiven
Conspicuous site-chamser Of
Commerce Plans

Carlton H. Clark, the California COM
missioner to the Central American ex-
position to open at Guatemala on the
18th of March, was in the city yester-
day, making arr ngements with the
chamber of commerce officials for
Southern California display. The state
legislature last week appropriated $10,-
900 to be used in getting up California
exhibit. This amount Is to apply to-
ward the transportation of the exhibit
and the cost of putting it in place and
maintaining It at Guatemala.
Speaking of the benefits to be derived
from the exhibition, Mrs. Clark said yes
terday: This Is matter that the
business men of this city cannot afford
to neglect. There is vast amount of
commerce imported into the Central
American provinces which ought to
come from this section. A large amount
of dried fruits, cereals and canned goods
are consumed, and there is no reason
why Southern California should not fur
nish these supplies. I have come to
Los Angeles, recognizing this as the
metropolis Of Southern California, and
because a Los Angeles display would
represent the products of the whole sec
ton. Arrangements have been made
with the chamber of commerce to take
charge of all exhibits and they will be
forwarded at once to Guatemala"
"Five Of the Central American prov
inces will be represented at the expo
sition. Guatemala, city Of ABOUT so, 900
inhabitants. has been selected as the
best place for holding the exposition.
The management has assigned the most
prominent place in the largest build
ing for the California display"

cisco. He will leave there for Guate-
mala on Thursday.

The revolver taken from the defen-
dant's person when arrested was placed
