AUBLE ASKS FOR
MORE PATROLMEN
COMM SSIoNERS ASK COUNCIL
FOR INCREASE
Request Sixty Additional Men for
Police Duty-General Admitted
Force Is Now Entirely
Too Small

The police commission last evening
voted to ask the city council to include
in the next years budget provisions
for 60 more patrolmen for the police
department. The commissions plan is
to place these additional men on the
force at the rate of ten each month,
taking hale the year to place the entire
sixty.
Chief Auble told the commission that
the present police force was entirely
inadequate to furnish the protection
that the citizens of Los Angeles demand
and pay for. He declared that the
shortest beat in the heart of the bust
ness district at night was six blocks
and that some of the beats in the out
lying residence districts were one mile
wide by four miles long, making it
impossible for policeman to give the
necessary protection to the district he
was obliged to cover.
"There are now 220 men in the police
department., counting every one, from
the chief down. Sixty men will help
the situation wonderfully. But we
should have at least $50 additional pa
trolmen to properly police this city.
There now are but 1853 patrolmen and
these have to care for the entire city"
1t is expected that the request of the
police commission will receive con-
sideraion from the finance committee
of the city council in the next years
budget, for Councilman Smith, chair
man of the committee, says he is well
aware that the police department is
inadequate to the needs of a large and
growing community like Los Angeles.

of st. Joseph's church, two sisters,

lestlne, while B. Krenwinkle walked
with Miss Elizabeth to where Rev.
Raphael Fuhr, o. F. NJ, pastor of St.
Joseph's, awaited the young people.
Elaborately gowned in white organdy,
trimmed with lace, the young women
presented a striking picture as they
knelt for the nuptial blessing. Miss
Elizabeth was attended by Miss Ele-
nora Sheets as maid of honor and
Miss Margaret Trudeau. sister of the
brides, assisted Miss Celestine. The
young women attendants were
gowned in blue organdy. Little Miss
Katherine Moss preceded the bridal
party and scattered rosebuds in their
path. George and Fred Krenwinkle
acted as best men. The ushers were
Louis Wurtle and John Becker.
Prior to the departure on honey
moon trip of the newly married cou
pies a reception was held at Santee
hall, where numerous friends gath
cred to bid farewell and shower con-
gratula tions upon them. Later in the
evening a supper was served at the
home of Mr.. and Mrs. F. Krenwinkle,
$50 East Twelfth street. After short
wedding tour, the young people will
be at home in Los Angeles.

BELIEVE NEGRO
ISINCENDIARIST
MAY CLEAR THE RECENT FIRE
MYSTERY
Police Hold Man on Suspicion and
Believe Him Responsible for the
Bazes at 1912 Santa Fe
Avenue

Investigation by the police in regard
to the incendiary fires at 1312-13l4
Santa Fe avenue resulted in the ar
rest of a negro yesterday afternoon,
who is accused of the incendiarism
The man is held on suspicion and to-
day will either be formally charged
with the crime or released.
Since the last attempt Monday night
detectives have been working hard
to gather evidence which would con-
Wet the man whom they suspected
of having set the fire, and although
nothing definite Is given out at this
time, it is thought the man suspect
ed will have to answer to the charge
The motive in the case is said not
to have been that of ousting the fami-
lies of Mr.. Clayton and C. Downs, but
that Of revenge on the Fairchild, Gill
more & Wilton company, together
with desire to avenge what he
thought was an injustice done to him
when he was brought to the central
station by the detectives ten days age
and sweated.
1t is said his answers to questions
at that time were unsatisfactory, and
that new evidence has developed
which will prove him to be the guilty
party.

TOSTMANN CASE TO
Be OPENED AGAIN
POLICE COMMISSION METHODS
TO Be INVESTIGATED
Former Central Avenue Liquor Dealer
Petitions Superior Court to Pass
on Legality Of License
Revoking

For a second time during the presen t
administration the superior courts of
Los Angeles county will be compelled
to look into the methods of business
pursued by the city police commission.
within the next two weeks, I'm accord
ance with petition filed yesterday
with the county clerk, the commission 8
Docks will he examined and the case
Of the withdrawal of the license issued
TO Henry Tostmann reviewed.
About six months ago the first case
OF the kind was taken to court by a
central avenue liquor dealer whom it
was alleged had taken too active par
ticipation in politics..
Inc case was argued before the su-
pertor court and finally it was decided
that the commissioners had erred
greatly in their methods of registering e
their actions, and that therefore the
man had not been given proper notice
of the action pending against him.
The Tostmann case Is different.
IoStmann, who conducts the Fortuna
Liquor and Wine company on South
Main street was deprived of his license
week ago when the commission held
special night session.
Members of the police department
testified that when officers went to
Tostmann's place to arrest a man
charged with felony Tostmann attacked
them and hustled them out.
The liquor license was revoked on the
ground that Tostmann had interfered
with the police department
Now Tostmann alleges in court that
at no time of the proceedings was he
Informed so that he could appear at
the proper time and make answer to
the accusations and therefore he petit
ttons the superior court to review the
case

CUPID FINDS
WAY In PRISON
VIRGIL CUMMINGS MARRIEs HIS
SWEETHEART
Compton Youngsters Are Released and
Ceremony Performed at the Court
House-Case viii Be
Dismissed

The troubles of pretty little Florence
wilhoit of Compton and Virgil Cum
mings, her youthful sweetheart, were
brought to q close yesterday afternoon
when Deputy District Attorneys Nc
Cartney and McComas released the
youth from the county Jail, where he
had been confined under charge of haV-
ing been too intimate with the girl, long
enough for the two youngsters to go
before Judge Gibbs of department two
of the superior court and there be mar
ried.
Cummings, who is Fl years of age and
a member of a prominent family of
Compton. was arrested several days ago
upon information furnished the dis
trict attorney. The youth insisted that
he was repentant of any wrong he had
committed and asked to be allowed to
marry his sweetheart.
But the officers thought differently
and Cummings was examined in the
lower courts and held to answer the
felony charge before Judge Smith Of
the superior court.
The trial was to have been held within
the week, but yesterday the girl, ac-
companied by her parents, appeared at
the district attorneys office and pleaded
that Cummings be allowed to marry
her.
Couple Allowed to Marry
The little GIRL who has just past the
age of 16 years, was dressed in white
from head TO foot as though prepared
for the marriage ceremony. She plead14
for her sweetheart and begged that he
be released. Several other witnesses
appeared in behalf of the lad, and they
all stated that he had been a good boy
and had borne good reputation. one
merchant promised him a good position
if he was released, and the attorneys
decided that there would be nothing
but harm result from further prosecu-
ton.
SO, while the bride-to-be stood shyly
| in the lower corridor of the court house,
Deputy Sheriff Hutchinson went to the
county Jail and told the boy to get
ready. Cummings was jubilant over
the prospect of happy elimination OF
his troubles and he hurried out of his
prison clothes and the Jail barber
acted as best men and aided here and
there in seeing that the groom was
properly fttired.
Finally Cummings had completed his
toilet and on money furnished by the
girls parents he secured a marriage
license, and then, still accompanied by
the officer, he went before Judge Gibbs
OF the superior COURT ana Ihey "SIc
married
Then came the hard part of the pro-
ceedings. The Jail officers refused to
allow the prisoner to depart without an
order from Judge Smith dismssing the
case.
But love found a way, and Cummings
had no idea of spending his first days
of his honeymoon in the county Jail.
So at his request Attorney McComas
called up Judge Smith by telephone
and the boy was allowed to leave on his
own recognizance, while this morning
the case will be dismissed.

SIGN UP FOR vRooMAN WORK
Nearly one Hundred Contracts Are
Formally Made on Last Day
of Grace

The last days Of grace granted by the
state legislature, following the legal
holidays proclaimed by the governor
after the San Francisco disaster, ex-
pired yesterday and today will begin a
big rush for contractors to sign their
contracts and present their bonds.
Nearly one hundred contracts, repre-
senting about half a million dollars
worth of Improvements are affected.
Contractors are at all times a little
chary of Vrooman act Improvements.
There are so many loopholes in the
Vrooman act and property owners have
such a reluctance to paying their as
.sessments for Improvements that con-
tractors do not propose to run any un-
necessary legal risks.
The legislature allowed a long period
of grace by specifying that any legal
work which might be done in June
could be postopend until July TO- This
gave the contractors an excuse for fail
ing to sign their contracts until July IL.
