well as those unusual expenses necessary
to closing the business of the event, should
be promptly betrayed.
Adjustment Tot Equitable
Your executive committee is now placed
In position of reporting that the general
adjustment between the subscribers of tn.
expenses incurred in behalf of this Fiesta
is not at all equitable. A good many sub
scribers. as will be seen by the attached
list. have paid their subscriptions in FULL
a number of others have paid the pro rata
fixed by this committee, while still moro
have paid absolutely nothing and few
still promise to pay after receiving a re-
port on the financial situation. This coln-
mittee sees no reason why portion of the
subscribers should pay their entire sub
scription and another portion should pay
nothing. If those who have not paid would
do the fair thing and pay their proportion
1t would leave handsome sum to be
turned over to charitable and patriotic
purposes, not from those who paid onl,
their pro rata, but from those who paid in
full and who firmly intended that the bal
ance of their subscription after paying
their proportion of the Fiesta expenses,
would be turned over by this committee
to such purposes.

Accounts
For the information Of all concerned
this committee calls attention to the meth
cd pursued In this, as well as previous
Fiestas, of keeping its accounts.
Subscriptions are receipted for, first by
whoever may collect the same, and when
the amount of the substitution has been
turned into the office a second acknowl-
edgement Is sent to all subscribers.
Disbursements are made as follows: A
bill contracted for by any one properly au-
thorized to do so is first o. KID by who
ever contracted it, by placing his signature
upon the same. This bill is then approved
for payment by at least two members of
the executive committee, who' place their
signatures upon IL. IL Is theh PAID by

The right to issue the official stationery
was sold to the Los Angeles Printing COM
pany for the sum of ISL. IS and percentage
on the sales, and, as a great many sales
were made before it was determined to
postpone La Fiesta it resulted in a net
revenue to La Fiesta of $61.15, which has
been collected.

ure in publicly extending it's thanks to the
uncrowned queen and her court, together
with all members of subcommittee and

vented the consummat ton of the celebra
ton.
