PROPER CELEBRATION
URGED FOR JULY FOURTH
Mayor MeAIeer May Appoint Commit
tee to Arrange Desirable
Features

Patriotic citizens and many business
men are agitating the proposition to ar
rarge for a grand celebration of the
Fourth Of July in Los Angeles, and
they will ask Mayor McAleer to take
action at once by appointing commit
tee to have full charge OF the prelimi-
nary arrangements.
One of the agitators said yesterday:
Last year Los Angeles tried to get
up creditable celebration that would
prove lesson to the youth of the city
and keep people at home for the great
est day in the history of the best coun-
try on earth, but the committee did
not have time enough to arrange for
the affair. All we could do was TO
place bands at the parks, hastily select
speakers for each place and then shoot
off few fireworks at night We ought
to have big military and civic pa
geant, all OF the buildings should be
decorated with flags and bunting, sew
eral eminent speakers should be en-
gagged, and funds should be provided
for an elaborate display of fireworks
understand that Treasurer A. w
Skinner, of last years committee, has
left over $500 from the celebration
fund, and that will be a good starter
for the big amount of money that bust
ness men will subscribe for a celebra'
tion that will keep the people at hom'
and bring great crowds to the cit,
from the beaches and other points.

VOTE AGAINST THE
PRESIDENTS CHOICE
Favorite for Chief Clerk of the
Bureau of American Re-
pub!iCs Loses

WASHINGTON, April 22.-For the
past two weeks the governing board
of the bureau Of American republics
has been trying to select a successor
to Mr.. Fox as chief clerk. The pro-
motion in that case was at the in
stance of President Roosevelt and the
ratification of his choice was not ac-
cCmplished without some difficulty.
owing to a belief on the part of the
governing board that it alone had the
right to fill the offices in the bureau.
When it came to the selection of the
chief clerk, this feeling grew much
stronger, as it was learned that the
president again held a choice for this
place in the person Of Gordon Cum
m'ngs, at present an employe of the
census office and prominent figure in
Washington society. Led by the rep
resentatives of Mexico and Chile, an
opposition was organized which tri-
umphed today at meeting of the gov
erning board, when William S. Wells
of the District of Columbia was Sc
lected, receiving eight votes as against
five votes for Mr.. Cummings.
A subcommittee, to which had been
referred the applications of five per-
sons who aspired to the place, reported
that each and all of the five were
fully qualified and it made no specific
recommendation, so that the govern
ing DOard was ODllSeQ 10 pdiloI With
the result above indicated. The vote
for Mr.. Wells was cast by the repre-
sentatives of Mexico, Chile, Costa Ri
ca, Ecuador, Haiti, Nicaragua, Co
lombia and Honduras while Mr.. Cum
mings' vote was from the United
States, Peru, Brazil Guatemala and
Bolivia.
A good deal of feeling was exhibited
and the result was received with sur
nriSe Mr. Wells is 90 wears old a
native born American. well acquainted
with South American countries, has
received a collegiate education, speaks
Spanish and is a graduate at law.
