SEEK DISBARMENT OF
ATTORNEY DANFORD
CHARGES PREFERRED AGAINST
LAWYER
Accusation Growing Out of Allegation
of Former Client Is Made
Basis of the Pro-
ceedings

An accusation charging fraud and
unfitness as a member of the Los An
geles bar was made against Attorney
William j. Danford by Catherine E..
Smith yesterday and was made the
basis of disbarment proceedings. Judge
James of the superior court a few min
utes after the filing of the action
agains Danford signed an order calling
on the accused attorney to appear i'll
court at 10 o'clock January to an
swer the charge against him. Danford
later in the afternoon made state
ment, designating the accusation It's
sue of falsehoods and saying he is pre-
pared to establish facts to show that
all his actions have been taken with
the strictest propriety.
Danford is accused by Mrs. Smith
with a violation of his oath as an at
torney and nonperformance of his
duties as an attorney and counselor
Mrs. Smith was arrested early this year
by the federal authorities, charged with
fraudulent use of the mails. Danford,
it is said was introduced to her by Il
man named Frye as lawyer who had
represented well known Chicagoans
while practicing in the Windy city, and
Mrs. Smith employed him, discharging
Attorney Force Parker.
Mrs. Smith says she paid Danford
$500 from May to June 49, The last
sum given him, she says, was $500, and
she expected, as was represented to her.
that everything would be settled and
the charge against her dismissed.
Case Not Settled
A few days later, however, she was
hailed before the district court, the case
still unsettled. Then she learned that
Danford had never been admitted to
practice before the district court and
placed her case in the hands of another
lawyer, o. p. Cook. Then she took her
troubles to the bar association. This
body appointed Henry ]. Stevens and
John North to make an Investigation.
The disbarment proceedings filed yes
terday followed.
Danford in a statement late in the
day said the accusation was handed to
him by an emissary OF John North,
my dear old arch enemy in the dis
| trict attorneys office" The accusation,
he says, is a tissue of falsehoods. In
this connection he also says the state
ments contained in civil suit filed
against him by Mrs. Smith for the re-
covery of $500 are untruthful.
Danford says Mrs. Smith has en-
deavored to bring about a settlement
Of this suit, offering at one time to adj
Just matters If he would pay her $1,000.
'I could see no honorable way of
having the matter settled by any settle
ment outside of a court of competent
Jurisdiction" says Danford, "and hence
my determination to refuse settlement
and have the whole matter heard by a
court"
Danford says he would not settle the
matter for 10 cents now and declares
there is no doubt in his mind that as a
result of the accusation and disbarment
proceedings yesterday some one will
land in Jail.

approve the legality of the bonds, "
says the New York firm. One change
in the ordinance providing for the is
sue and sale of the bonds is, however,
recommended. This is in regard to the
provision for levying a tax for the
payment of principal and interest on
the bonds every five years. 1t is sug-
gested by the examining firm that the
tax should be levied each year to pay

letters from friends expressing thanks
to them for their generosity in donat-
ing the use of their magnificent build
ing for so noble a cause as the Christ
mas festival proved to be.
Ministers busy with pastoral cares
have been told by members of their
flock that The Herald's wide circle of
beneficence reached cases entirely
overlooked by organized benevolence
and that, too, without any publicity
or exposure.
Some of the earliest and the latest
work in connection with the festival
was done by the Bekins Van and Stor-
age company in hauling supplies long
distances and in restoring borrowed
articles to the Shriners, Elks, whole
sale houses and others.
Hauling was also done free by Rich
ard Hopwood, proprietor of the Sun
set express McGonigle block, South
Pasadena, whose wagons make daily
round trips between Los Angeles, South
Pasadena and Pasadena. Mr.. Hop
woods men picked up packages on the
way for The Herald's depot and took
others back to worthy families.
Members of the Produce exchange of
Los Angeles, who contributed so lib
orally to the fund by undertaking the
work of furnishing most of the produce,
nuts and some of the turkeys have
had their work recorded in various
trade and agricultural journals
throughout the state as an example
of typical California generosity.
In a few days the work of the au-
diting committee of bankers will be
made known, the arduous labors put
on all business men with the close OF
the year making delays unavoidable.
