 DIPLOMATIC AFFAIRS. I recommend more adequate provis- ion than has been made heretofore for the work of the department of state. Within a few years there has been a i very great increase in the amount and importance of the work done by that department both in Washington and abroad. This has been caused by the great increase of our foreign trade. the
  which enables them to travel more gen orally than heretofore, the increase Of American capital which is seeking in vestment in foreign countries, and the growth of our power and weight in the councils of the. civilized world There has been no corresponding increase Of facilities for doing the work afforded to the department having charge of our foreign relations.
 Neither at home nor abroad is there sufficient working force to do the business properly. Tn many respects the system which was adequate to the
 work of twenty-five, or even ten, years ago, is inadequate now, and should be changed.
 Suitable provision should be made for the expense of keeping our diplo- matic officers more fully informed Of
 what is being done from day to day | in the progress of our diplomatic af
 fairs with other countries. The lack of
 such information, caused by insuffic ! tent appropriations available for cable tolls and for clerical and messenger service, frequently puts our officers at a great disadvantage and detracts
 from their usefulness. The salary list should be readjusted. It does not now | correspond either to the importance Of
 the service to be rendered and the de-
 grees of ability and experience requir
 cd .n the different positions. or to the differences in the cost of living. In
 many cases the salaries are quite in-
 adequate.

I recommend that law be enacted to regulate interstate commerce in misbranded and adulterated foods, drinks, and drugs. Such law would protect legitimate manufacture and commerce, and would tend to secure the health and welfare of the consum- ing public Traffic in foodstuffs which have been debased or adulterated so as to injGre health or to deceive pur- chasers should be forbidden

 I earnestly advocate the adoption of legislation which will explicitly con- fer American citizenship on all citi- zens of Porto Rico There is. in my judgment, no excuse for failure to do this. The harbor of San Juan should be dredged and improved. The ex- penses of the federal court of Porto Rico should he met from the federal treasury, and not from the Porto Rican treasury. The elections in Porto Rico should take place every four years, and the legislature should meet in session every two years. The present form of government i'll Porto Rico which pro- Vides for the appointment by the pres ident of the members of the executive council or upper house of the legis- lature, has proved satisfactory and has inspired confidence in property owners and investors. I do not deem it ad- visable at the present time to change this form in any material feature. The problems and needs of the island are industrial and commercial rather than political.

During the year just past, the phase
 of the indian question which has been
 most sharply brought to public atten-
 tion is the larger legal significance of
 the Indians induction into citizenship.
 This has made itself manifest not only
 in a great access of litigation in which
 the citizen Indian figures as a party defendant and in more widespread disposition to levy local taxation upon his personality, but in a decision of the United States supreme court which struck away the main prop on which has hitherto rested the governments S benevolent effort to protect him against
 the evils of intemperance. The court holds, in effect, that when an Indian becomes, by virtue of an allotment of
 land to him, a citizen of the state in which his land is situated he passes from under federal control in such matters as this, and the acts of con gress prohibiting the sale or gift to him of intoxicants become substantially in- operative. It is gratifying to note that | the states and municipalities of the west which have most at stake in the welfare of the Indians are taking up | this subject and are trying to supply,

scored two runs, tying the score. AL
though both sides put forth their best
efforts, no additional scoring was done

HIGH SCHOOL HAS
STRONG TEAM
CLEVER BASKETBALL SQUAD
OF PREP. STUDENTS
FAST AND HEADY PLAYERS
Local institutions Reputation in Ath-
Ietics Is Maintained by Goal
Tossing Squad-MitchelIs
Good Record
FAST AND HEADY PLAYERS

That the Los Angeles high school
has been creditably represented in the
preparatory school basket ball games
throughout the season now drawing
to a close is evident from the fact that
all the matches played by the local
high school ball tossers have resulted
or creditable defeat upon the side of
the lads from the school on the
hill.
The team is now entered in the finals
for the championship of Southern Calf
fornia and while the prep school men
lost their first struggle in the deciding
games their supporters are confident
that they will capture at least one of
the final matches from their more
experienced opponents.
The team has worked together like a
machine, every man has studied his
position closely and knows how to play
it to the best advantage. The weight
of the team averages about 1856 pounds,
which is light in comparison with sew
eral of the teams which they are
scheduled to go up against in the
finals.
Hussey, who has captained and
coached the high school team, is one OF
its fastest men. His clever work as
a forward mas stimulated well de-
served confidence upon the part Of his
fellow players.
Standsh Mitchell, one of the high
strongest players in the league. he
plays the game for all there is in it
and as a guard sticks to his opponent
closely and applies all of the fine points
of the position. The high school center,
Mowatt Mitchell, has a higher per-
centage of goals chalked up to his
credit than any other member of the
high school team. In all of the league
games Mitchell has played better ball
than his opponents and if an all South
ern California team was picked he
would have a fine chance for a place.
Corteyou is a fast forward, getting
around the court in a speedy and sure
footed manner. He is especially strong
on throwing baskets and for endurance
it is hard to find his equal.
Johnson, the crack Y. M. C. A.
athlete, plays the other guard for the
blue and white team. His strength and
headwork has been one of the winning
factors of the league season and have
pulled the team through many tight
place. Ready and Stose complete the
high schools basket ball line up. Both
are clever performers on the courts and
fill any position satisfactorily.

TWO-STORY RESIDENCE
GUTTED BY FLAMES

Flower Street Burned While
Family Was at Theater

The residence of c. II. E. Blackman
of 1907 South Flower street was gutted
by fire which started in the attic at
$3.50 last night. The cause of the blaze
is unknowl.
Patrolman Charles Johnson being
among the first to discover the flames.
turned in an alarm from Sixteenth and
Flower streets. When he got back to
the scene of the fire he found the
flames had spread to the roof of the
residence of Joseph Sunderland next
door. Johnson pulled off his coat, and
climbing to the roof, by way of the
front porch, put out the flames by
few well directed pals of water, which
were passed to him. BY this time fire
companies No Z, and 10 had arrived
and soon had the fire under control.
Mr.. Blackman and family were at the
theater and on arriving home at 11:3O
they found they had lost everything in
the house, except bedroom set which
was carried out by the f1remen.

Would Relieve Situation

The finance committee will recon-
mend to the council Monday that tenn
porary quarters be found for the
library and that it be moved as soon
as possible to some suitable location,
and thus relieve the congestion both
in the city Offices and the library.
The latter is so crowded at the pres
ent time that the librarians find great
difficulty in serving patrons. About
$4,000 feet of floor space, including sew
eral work rooms in the garret, is the
present allotment of the library and
the librarian, Miss Jones, says it is
less than half what is needed.
The finance committee calls atten-
tion to the fact that Homer Laughlin
made a proposition to the library board
Offering three floors of the new build
ing he is erecting on Hill street, which
will in reality be continuation of the
one on Broadway, for $3.50 per month
or $675 for two floors. The three floors
would give floor space OF 10000 square
feet and would be ample for present
needs and give the library room in
which to grow.
The library board objects to the plan
to move the institution until it can go
into building of it's own, but it is
probable their objections will be over
come or overruled.
