SAYS CITY OFFICIAL sY6ARITEs
AND SCHOOL CHILDREN SUFFER

LOS ANGELES. Sept, 2s.-[Editor
Herald: II the women OF Los Angeles
were voters would the city officials be
supplied with sixteen automobiles and
children denied an education for lack
of school rooms?
If the women of Los Angeles were
voters would city officials be given
junketing trips and Los Angeles school
facilities so meager that children stay
in line all night to be ready for enroll
ment in the morning?

Editor Graphic:

Ed tor Graphic:
Dear Sir.--In a recent issue OF
-four paper, you published d report
of q committee of the late grand
jury, which tended to reflect upon
the prosecuting attorney, his deputy
and myself, rs Justice of the Peace,
and you also in an unmompl1ment-
airy way referred to the matter in
the same issue of your paper.
In order that justice may be done,
and that the truth may be known,
I wish to state that I am and was
at the time, the acting Justice OF
the Peace before whom the fourteen
persons were arrested referred to by
the grand jury committee. No in
formation was filed against any
person by the prosecuting attorney
nor his deputy; they knew nothing
of the issuance Of the warrants for
the arrest OF these persons. They
I~ere arrested upon an affidavit
I,nade by w. E. Gardner, the preach
er in charge Of the colored church
in that neighborhood, (Pastoria
township When this affidavit
was made and filed before me, under
the law l was compelled to issue
warrants for their arrests. When
the case came up for trial, Greed
Caldwell, deputy prosecuting attor-
.ney, was present at lay request, and
after looking into the cases, and
after talkin" with me about 1t, he
recommended and | agreed that
these persons should be dismissed,
which was done. Not one cent Of
fees was charged against any OF
the persons arrested, either for the
prosecuting attorneys office, for
myself or the constable of the dis
trict and this my docket shows, and
shows today, and this docket the
grand jury had before them.
! cannot understand why this
committee of the grand jury ever
made such a report concerning the
matter.
Respectfully,
