STATES LAWMAKERS
BY Associated ]

BY Associated Press.
SACRAMENTO, March 9.-The senate

and provides as penalty fine of from
$50 to $4,000, or imprisonment for from
six months to one year
Each days violation shall constitute
a separate offenSe. A trust is defined

tions of persons for any or all of the
following purposes:
To create or carry out restrictions in
trade or commerce..

increase or reduce the price of mer-
chandise or of any commodity.
To prevent competition in manufac-
turing, making, transportation sale or
purchase of merchandise, produce or
any commodity.
To fix at any standard or figure
whereby its price to the public or con-
sumer shall be in any manner con-
-trolled or established, any article or
commodity of merchandise.
To directly or indirectly preclude n
free and unrestricted competition. ANY
violation is declared to be a conspiracy
against trade.
Divorce Reform Killed
All divorce reform legislation was
killed today when the senate defeated
the bills prepared by the international
divorce commerce which were intro
duced by Senator Anderson and had
for their purpose the effecting of re-
forms in the divorce laws of this state
The bills were the uniform divorce
laws recommended by the national
congress, which convened in Washing
ton last year and to which every state
sent delegates.
The proposed laws required personal
service on the defendant, residence of
one year in the county and required
the district attorney to be present a.,
all divorce proceedings. II also pro
vided severe penalties for collusion and
fraud. The senate today refused 20
adopt Senator Anthony's proposed con-
stitution amendment abolishing the
poll tax.

Highwaymen Keep
Two Employees
at Bay
Choose Early Night Hour
to Rifle Office of
Laundry
Police Declare It the Boldest HoIdup
In Months and Are Unable to
Obtain cleWs to Identity
of the Footpads

Two daring highwaymen, one masked
and both heavily armed, succeeded in
overpowering and robbing F. M. Couch,
cashier of the Sanitary Laundry, Third
and San Pedro streets, in his office in
the laundry building about o'clock
last night. While the robbery was
taking place H. r. Trader, the night
PEELED to stand with his hands above
mis- head and watch the highwaymen
go through the safe.
Couch was working over some books
in the office. About s o'clock he heard
the door open behind him and turned
to see who had entered. The first
thing he saw was tall, heavily built
man with handkerchief tied over his
face and with two large revolvers.
Throw UP your hands, ordered the
robber, but instead of doing so Couch
sprang from his chair with a yell. AS
he did so the muzzle Of a revolver fell
across COUGHS head and he fell to the
floor.
Trader was on the second floor of
the building at the time, and hearing
Couch's yell rushed toward the Office
AS he neared the door one of the rob-
bers stepped forward and pointed his
revolver at the watchman.
Stand Watchman Against Wall
"Stop! Now stand over against the
wall,i was all the robber said, and at
the same moment Couch recovered suf-
ficiently to get upon his feet. He was
ordered to stand alongside the watch
man, and while one Of the robbers
stood in front of them the second went
through the safe.
About SIS, all the money there was in
the laundry, was taken. Both Couch
and Trader wore watches and had a
small amount of money in their
pockets, but they were not touched
After robbing the safe the robbers
told their victims that If they moved
from where they stood for two minutes
they would be shot. The footpads left
the building at once, and despite the
fact that the police were notified no
clew was found to their identity
The office is in the front part Of the
building, and had any person passed by
at the time the robbers would have
been seen. The detectives who are
working upon the case say it Is one of
the most daring holdups that has
taken place in Los Angeles for months.

ROCKEFELLER
MILLIONS
viii pc Used 70 Stimulate LoeaI Pride
IN Colleges.

NEW YORK, Peb. s.-FrederIck T
Gates. chairman Of the general educs
tIon board. to which John d. Rookie
teller gave $4,000. 900 on Thursday
said yesterday that the income from
this gift and the income from Mr..
Rockefeller's prior gift Of t11.0OO. 900
win be used to increase the resources
OF various educational institutions in
this country within the next decade
by from seo0. 900, 900 to $3.50, 000, 900.
That Is to say, the board win aim to
stimulate local pride In and generosity
toward Universities and colleges
throughout the nation and its distri-
button of the income viii usually be
conditioned upon the raising OF larger
amounts by the recipients. Thus. gen
orally speaking, Mr.. Rockefeller's huge
donation win become a nucleus for an
amount of education much larger than
his recent present to the board.
1t Is understood that the idea of the
elder Mr.. Rockefeller is to make his
future benefactIons through his son.
This is said to be indicated by his nav.
ing made the gift last Thursday
through the junior Rockefeller. 1t %
probable that the young man will de-
vote much Of his time hereafter to adj
the benevolence of his
father. AS an immediate result Of the
big gift the board will extend its dem

which consists In conducting modern |
arms on educational lines, means the
agricultural rejuvenation of the south. |

gestions for the Council of Mothers
recently held at Newburg and the
State Convention to be held In the

For one of your topics how would

forget that exactly as the mother must
help the breadwinner by being good
housewife, so the father, in his turn,
If he is worth his salt, must In every
way back up the mother In helping
bring up the children.
After all, the prime duties are eie-

no amount of business force and sa-
gacity will make the average man
good husband and father and unless he
Is successful breadwinner, is tender

weak and foolish Is utterly ruinous)
In dealing with the children.
II think 1t crime for the woman
to shirk her primary duties, to shrink |
from being good wife and mother |
Of course, the woman should have the |
same right as the man to train her
mind, to better herslf and occasion
ally woman can and ought to follow
some special vocation in addition to
(never in substitution for her home
work.
But Just as the highest work for
the normal man is work for his wife

work in her home II she has healthy
