LAMAR HARRIS
MAN WHO SAVED LAWYERS LIFE

Young Attorney Who Is Accused of
Passing Worthless Checks Re-
ceiVes Assistance of Friend
of His Dead Father
Especial to The Herald,l ]

SAN BERNARDINO, Sept. 23.-To
save from prison stripes the son of
the man who twenty-five years ago
rescued him from a watery grave,
Henry M. Willis, assistant United
States district attorney of Los Angeles
and formerly of this city. came to San
Bernardino tonight in an endeavor to
secure the withdrawal of the COM
plant filed against Lamar Harris, the
young Los Angeles attorney who sew
eral weeks ago left in his wake here a
path strewn with worthless checks.
A quarter Of a century ago the late
Will A. Harris, the father of the man
now sought by the sheriff of this
county, rescued Mr.. Willis from drawn
ing at Oceanside, and In an effort to
save the son from the penitentiary the
attorney has offered his influence and
legal ability to the heart-broken
mother.
Mr.. Willis says when he has ex-
planned the circumstance surrounding
the issuing of the checks and the ire
sponsible condition of Harris at the
time he anticipates little difficulty in
arranging with the holders Of the
worthless papers for the dropping of
the case.
Although Sheriff Ralphs has issued
circulars to the officers over the entire
middle west requesting the arrest of
Harris, his whereabouts have not as
yet been ascertained, although it was
originally supposed he was in Salt
Lake City.

HITCHCOCK ADVOCATES
POSTAL SAVINGS BANK
Postmaster General Demands Strctest
Economy Shall Be Prsotioed In
His Department

PORTLAND, Ore, Sept 23.-Econ-
omy in every division in the postofttce
department is the command Of Post
master General Frank H. Hitchcock.
This economy contemplates no impair
ment of efficiency, but must be posi-
tive far-reaching and persistent.
In his address to the Oregon post
masters, assembled in convention in
this city, the postmaster general made
this duty clear.
The postmaster general discussed en-
tertainingly the question of postal saw
ings banks, and declared that his OBJ
servations in Canada confirmed him in
his opinion that a postal savings sys-
TEN should be inaugurated in this
country. He said, however, that he
thought the time not quite ripe for
putting the plan into operation. He
believed the monetary commission
would include in its report some plan
for a postal savings system, and un-
til that report was received, the ques-
ton should be put aside temporarily.
