WILL PROSECUTE
CORPORATIONS
CITY ATTORNEY DETERMINED
TO ACT
Two Days Of Grace Remain for DeIln.
quent cas and Telephons Conn
psnIes to File Their
Reports

Two days OF grace only remain for
the delinquent corporations TO file their
financial statements with the city
clerk II they are not on hand in time
for the council when It meets Monday
morning City Attorney Mathews inti-
mates that he Will at once begin prose-
cution against the violators of the
public utility ordinance.
The Peoples Gas company and the
Home Telephone company are the ones
that Will probably receive the earnest
attention of the city attorney. A mes
sage was received yesterday from San
Francisco by the local branch of the
sunset Telephone company that the
main Office fin the northern city had
mailed financial statement Wednes-
day and that 1t would reach the city
clerks office as fast as Uncle Sam
could get 1t there. At the time of
closing the city clerks office last even
ing 1t had not been received.
The city attorney was as positive
yesterday as city attorneys ever are
that If the Home Telephone company
persisted in it's defiant attitude he
would make it sustain its position in
court.
And I don't believe It cam" he
ion the ordinance is perfectly valid and
will stand the test Of the courts.
believe the council can arbitrarily Ak
a rate regardless of the Home Tele-
phone company's franchise, and COM
pei 1t to abide by It's decision or for
felt the franchise
The Home company based it's refusal
to comply with the ordinance on the
ground that such a compliance might
invalidate it's franchise
In discussing the case of the Peoples
Gas company, which submitted a state
ment purporting to be a report. but
which contained no figures and was
largely composed Of mvective hurled
at its competitors, the city attorney
said
1.-THE excuse that the Peoples Gas
company has until recently not con-
Quoted a plant in this city is not a
valid excuse. This company has fur
nished gas to Los Angeles consumers
and the ordinance covers its case as
much as any other corporation. The
question of the location of the manu-
featuring plant does not enter into the
case In any way"
The attention of the city attorney
was called to the fact that the council
is usually dilatory in pushing a case
against a corporation, but his answer
showed that the corporations would
not escape punishment through any
sentiment of the council.
ut does not require an order from
the council to prosecute violators of an
ordinance answered Mr.. Mathews,

On the day of the shooting it was
thought that it would be necessary to

ber.
