WOULD lake PARKS
OUT OF POLITICS
COMMISSIONERS FAVOR CHAR
TER AMENDMENT
Want Tax Appropriation Such as tho
Library Gets, with One Member
of Board Retiring Each
Year

Park Commissioner William Humphrey
and colleagues ON the park board want
to take the Los Angeles parks out OF
politics and will ask the charter revision
commission for relief.
1t is proposed to get enabling legisla-
ton such as the public library has, regu-
larly setting aside certain proportion OF
the taxes for park purposes.
The board will then do as the library
directors do, expend their fund within the
appropriations without first going to the
council.
1t is claimed that under the present sys-
tenn If the commissioners do not put the
men picked by the councilmen to work
they get no adequate appropriations.
1t is also planned to make one park
commissioner retire each year as Is done
with the library board, thus continuing
the majority from one administration to
another. In this way every time new
mayor takes office there need be no break
in the continuity of park affairs

Dressed in black. relieved only by

peared Yesterday morning Tor afraisn-
rnent before Judge 3. N. 6mlth OIL tne

As the Young woman stood facing the

into the face Of the judge.

a few moments before he had fouha II
necessary to condemn a fellow oelhg 10
death. Her attitude was that OF ohe
merely waiting for the procedure to pc
ein and she seemed not to understand
the serious nature of the charges against
her. ,u+ 20
Miss Casselman was in the court to
MEAD to the charge of forgery she was
without counsel. and when asked II the
court should appoint an attorney 70 'ane
charge of her interests she mace the
simple ply:
"Well, I'm not guilty.

District Attorney Fredricks has since
Miss Casselman was bound over to the
superior court, been the recipient of
large number of letters from persons
purporting to be friends of the prisoner.
From the tone of this one-sided cor
respondence 1t would appear that she has
been delving deeply into thought study
of a character SC advanced that persons
whose opportunities for enlightenment
along these lines of high menta. culture
are lost in the maze of untamhlar ana
ponderous phrases.
That the young woman has been swayed
by a mind OF superior strength and that
telepathic influence has led her is also
contention, but how strongly this theory
will enter into the defense has not been
determined.
Many persons were yesterday attracted
to the court room to watch the proceed
ings in Miss Casselman's case. and there
is little doubt that much interest will be
taken in her trial.

Asserts Mask Is Being Torn Of Wall
Street Hypocrites and Refers to
Financial Kings as Leaders

Lee C. Gates, addressing the City club
yesterday, said that the trend of the
judiciary in some quarters seemed 10 be
to let the guilty intrench behind the law
rather than the innocent
President Gates used strong language
concerning the freeing of the former San
Francisco mayor and boss, preliminary
to introducing President George w. Gates
of Pomona college.
President Gates of the club said in parts
'Errors committed in the trial of
case, whether those errors were Treju-
dicial or not have defeated in many in
stances justice as administered by our
courts in thie country and in this state.
'tAt this moment the people of Cali
fornia are asking the question whether
we have in this state at this time, under
the administration of the law as 1t Is
administered, that protection that our
laws and our statutes demand against
the malefactor and transgressor.
Would Amend Law Practice
II believe the next great step in this
country and in this state is to amend the
practice of our law so as to obtain JUS
tice for all who get beyond the pale OF
the law and into our courts"
Concluding, President Gates said that
the recent decision had done much to
overthrow respect for courts and the law.
Pomona's college president then took the
floor as the guest to discuss the ethical
trend of today. His topic was THE New
Day" He spoke Of the type of new men,
such as Roosevelt. Hughes, johnson, Pin
gree, Jones and La Toilette.

which we used to preach about and pray

Speaker Gates referred to Rockefeller,
Ryan Whitney and others as leaders of
a finance whose basis was thieVery,
watered stock and lies.
The Standard Oil company was termed
the biggest criminal in the land.
"Flnanciers have known for a long
time" he continued, that the high finan-

There IS nothing back of the operation
but ink and water. When we hold the

'The time has come when somebody

The speaker deprecated the cry that

I'VE don't need business said he
We don't need rich men. Ninety out of

What we need is to do and think
