Foresees Brilliant Future

John o. Knight, of Heron Realty COM
pany said:
1.-THE Los Angeles field is certainly a
good one for O clean, conservative morn
ing newspaper, eliminating bitterness and
sensationalism.
1--WE have the two extremes in other
papers believe the policy Of the new
Herald, Democratic in state and national
politics, Independent locally, will win,
and make the Herald winner in the
state.
"There appears to be bright future
for the Herald under the management of
Mr.. Gibbon, Mr.. Trask and their as
sociates, and in my opinion the Herald
will make great strides as potent
factor in local politics and also in the
upbuilding of Los Angeles and Southern
California.
1.-The time is ripe for the publication of
a courageous Independent morning paper,
and / believe the Herald will score a
brilliant record"

BOTTOM BUILDING COST

Conditions now are as favorable for
home building in Los Angeles as they
were prior to the advance in prices
consequent upon the San Francisco
calamity. That is the judgment of
reliable contractors. 1t feels like tooth
pulling for lumber dealers to mark
down their stock prices, but close ex-
animation of the market shows that
the opinions of contractors are correct.
The more favorable conditions are in
evidence throughout Southern Califor-
MIA. A Redlands newspaper, for ex-
ample, quotes the manager of the lead
ing lumber concern in that city thus:
Lumber is cheaper in Redlands today
than it has been at any time in the
last four years" That is equivalent to
saying that "bed rock has been
reached in the descent of lumber prices
and that it would be folly for home
makers further to postpone building.
Like conditions are noticed in regard
to builders hardware and other ma
terials.
Along with this favorable situation
concerning the present cost of, building
we now have reached the period of the
year when it is most desirable to begin
the construction of buildings. For
these reasons: Dwellings that are
started in the midsummer period have
ample time for completion before the
so-called rainy season, and they are
available for occupancy at the time
of greatest pressure for accommodation
caused by the inpour of tourists.
And the question of cost in building
is like the double-edged sword, in cut
ting both ways. When the price of any
level in reaction from an upward flight
it is liable to essay the ascending scale
again. Persons conversant with the
subject believe that the rapidly in
creasing scarcity of lumber will neces-
sarily cause high prices in future, in
conformity to the law of supply and
| demand.
The time is ripe, therefore, for re-
sumption of building in Los Angeles
to the degree of activity previous. to
the catastrophe at San Francisco
Prudent home makers who have waited
patiently for bottom figures in the cost
of building now will see the Importance
of getting busy before possible up
ward turn of the building material
market.

NO BoGY WORRY

Persons of nervous temperament
should not be perturbed by thoughts
of warliSe Japanese ensconced on Cata-
lima island and preparing to attack the
adjacent coast towns
The Japanese lingo has his counter
part on this side of the ocean. Both
take delight in enacting bogy roles.
Here is the latest effort of the Amer
lean lingo: catalina island offers an
ideal base for any hostile fleet to use
in operations against the proposed for
tif1cations at San Diego and San Pedro.
Under the protection of land batteries
even a fleet of no great strength could
menace the entire southern coast"
Such short range war talk is we'll
calculated to excite apprehension in the
minds of inconslderate or ill-informed
persons. AS a matter of fact there is
a good deal of such apprehension now
and it has a more or less disturbing
influence on material affairs. "Do you
think we will have war with Japan"
1t is question heard almost as often
as remarks about the weather
There is no likelihood whatever of a
war between Japan and the United
States, at least not in the near future.
The Herald heretofore has shown that
such war instigated by Japan would
be suicidal. Japanese statesmen are
familiar with American war resources,
and they know that Japan would not
have "the ghost of chance" in at
tempting to fight the United States
at a distance of 5000 miles from the
Japanese base.
But the general Importance of ade-'
quate land and naval defenses on the
Pacific is fully recognized by The
Herald and was the basis of prods at
the government long before the present
friction with Japan. The discrimina-
ton against the Pacific coast in this
respect, as compared with the Atlantic
coast, frequently was a subject of
comment in these columns.
If Catalina island is an important
point in comprehensive plan of coast
defenses it unquestionably should be
1Ol lillCtis hClC GlC ilO
tons on the Atlantic side. All the
islands there are near the mainland
and all are small, excepting three or
four on the Georgia coast.
But it is folly to conjure up a Jap
anese bogy at Catalina, using that
island as a base of operations aiming
at the destruction of California coast
towns and possible invasion of the in
terror. A naval base requires, funda-
docking, coaling and general
Quitting facilities. Catalina has |
nothing of the kind. The island might |
be made useful for American defensive |
purposes by reason of it's proximity to |
the mainland and it's nearness to |
sources of supply but it would be
absolutely non-available for a Japan
csc fleet.
Don't worry about the Japanese
bogy. Our coast towns are not in the
slightest danger of molestation from
the Japanese. The American navy is
far superior to that of Japan in
strength, and in case OF Japanese ag-
gression it would be, to use a cham
ticleer smile, lighting on its own dung
