MACHINES ARE TRICKY, TOO
Clerk Brown Says Voting May Be
Changed by Adjusting Rubber
Bands

A simple trick of beating" the new
voting machines has been discovered
by Clerk Bob Brown of the county
registration department
According to Browns statements, the
new machines, 104 of which were re-
Gently ordered for county and city use
at an expense of $72,S00, can be made
to register falsely by simply wrapping
a rubber band around the key, which
is to register votes for the candidate
who Is to be cheated. The band is
then wrapped around the next key and
made secure to the third key
In this way when the ballot is reg
istered the vote for the unlucky candi-
date fails to register
Although II requires less than a min
ute to adjust the rubber band, Brown
asserts that II is impossible to do so
II the voting clerks are attending to
their business.

WILL SUBMIT STATEMENTS
All Los Angeles Banks to Make Ex-
hibts of Financial Strength for
General information

Indications are that all non-clearing
house bankers in the city will upon
call submit full statements for the use
of the Los Angeles clearing house
About all of the more important banks
and trust companies in the city have
signed an agreement to make finan-
cial statements to the clearing house
when requested to do so.
Under the law national banks are re-
quired to carry a reserve of not less
than 25 per cent. This law does not
apply to savings banks and trust COM
panies.
President Patterson of the clear
ing house is quoted as saying in
substance: 1.-THE contract signed does
not necessarily raise the percentage
of surplus reserve, but l believe 1t will
have a tendency to do So The idea is
to have on hand the information as
to the financial standing of these nom
clearing house banks and while we have
no authority in the matter, the infor-
nation will be desirable. If anybody
wants to know the total banking bust
ness of the city, we will be able to
supply the Information from these
statements. The individual statements
will not be made public, but the in
formation can be supplied in the ag-
gregate."

TAKES RAP AT "SURE
THING" GAMBLING
JUDGE BoRDWELL HANDS DOWN
OPINION
Plaintiff Costen Awarded Judgment
Against Bookmakers German and
Bauer on Betting Proposition at
the Ascot Track

In a decision handed down yesterday
ment of the superior court in the
suit on note of J. r. Costen, known
to the racing world as Diamond Joe
Costen, against the firm of German
& Bauer, bookmakers, a finding for
$1232.50 In favor of the plaintiff was re-
turned and with it lecture, given by
Judge Bordwell on betting on races at
Ascot park.
incidentally" said the judge, "the
evidence adduced in this case has de-
veloped facts long since understood by
discerning persons. that the conditions
and relations between horsemen, book
makers and professional gamblers at
the race park are such, that if this be
a sample of conditions generally, the
public is simply a fool to suppose it
has chance to place it's money on races
there with any hope of winning it;
that the game is there run on "sure
thing PLAN; the only persons who will
play the races, as the evidence shows
they are run there, are suckers"
Judge Bordwell allowed the first note
of $1100. The original note had been
for $1,000. but as the evidence proved
a $500 debt had been on a gambling
proposition, this amount was stricken
out
The second note for several hundred
dollars alleged to have been loaned
the defendants by the plaintiff was
simply for betting purposes and it also
was stricken out.
When the case was tried several
weeks ago, German on the witness
stand toh many stories of inside dope
at the track, in connection with bet
ting, and the revelations from these
statements served as eye openers for
many race track bettors who were in
the court room to listen to the case.
Charges of doping and pulling horses
and bribing Jockeys were made, and
an investigation into the affair may
be made by judges at Ascot park when
the season opens in December.

WOULD SHOOT
SPEED MAN|ACS
SOUTH MAIN STREET PEOPLE
ASK PROTECTION
Shotgun Brigade" Not Countenaneed
by City Attorney and Other
Methods May Be
Devised

In their attempt to organize shot
gum brigade and take the law into
their own hands to force a more strict
compliance with the speed ordinance,
residents of South Main street have
found themselves against an obstacle
that looks hard to surmount. The city
attorneys office will not countenance
any such action.
j. j. Sheppard, father of the move
ment to organize a shot gun brigade,
and Assistant City Attorney Robertson
held long conference on the proposed
scheme yesterday morning but ar
rived at no conclusion, and Mr.. Shep-
pard will make another visit to the
city attorneys Office this morning to
receive a decision from Assistant City
Attorney Goudge. Attorney Goudge,
however, rendered a verdict last night
that is adverse to the plans and hopes
of the South Main street business men
and residents.
Goudge Opposes shotguns
There is no doubt that reckless
speeding of automobiles should be
stopped" said Mr.. Goudge but we
cannot sanction any such method as
a 'shot gun" brigade. We have good
ordinance covering the subject that
provides heavy penalties for its viola
tion and the proper enforcement ol
this ordinance SENS to me to be suffi-
Cient safeguard.
"There is one method of preventing
reckless speeding that has been tried
with success on a number Of roads that
might be successfully introduced into
Los Angeles, or the surrounding coun
try at least. This is to construct a
gentle rise in the pavement in the
middle of a block. The approach is sc
gradual that in ordinary traffic 1t is
not noticed at all but when vehicle Is
driven more than ten or twelve miles
an hour it become very noticeable and
the car and occupants receive severe
jolts. When these jolts occur i'm the
middle of every block the pleasure OF
speeding is reduced to a minimum"
A mass meeting of the residents OF
the South Main street district will be
held at the corner OF Main and Twenty
seventh streets next Wednesday even
ing. At this meeting an organization
will be effected and plans laid for pro-
lection against speed maniacs.
