INSPECT HISTORIC ROAD

fare Are Called to Attention
of the Board

HOLLYWOOD. Aug. 26.-George H.
Bixby Martin Marsh and ]. w. Cal
vert of the highway commission passed
through this city this afternon, going
through the Cahuenga pass on tour
of inspection. The commission has de-
cided to improve the highway which
connects the San Fernando valley with
Hollywood and Los Angeles.
Besides being one of the historic
roads of Southern California, over
which the Spanish padres passed in go
ing from Los Angeles to the Santa Bar
bara and other northern missions, the
pass has become one of the busiest
highways in Southern California, espe-
cially in the summer time. Every night
the road is lined with fruit wagons
bearing the products of the San Fer
nando valley to the early Los Angeles
markets. Its improvement will be q
great benefit to the people Of this valley
and of San Fernando valley as well.
The attention of the highway COM
mission was called to the needs of this
pass by committees from the Lanker-
SHIN board of trade and the Hollywood
board, which met with the commission
last Wednesday. The Hollywood men
were: Z. c. Hampton, president of the
board of trade; John Law. president of
the First National bank of Hollywood;
A. u. Taft and F. w. Stith.

CHARGES OF PARTIALITY
MADE AGAINST INSPECTOR
Trustees Investigate Allegation That
Official Favored One Electrical
Firm to Injury of Another

REDLANDS, Aug. 26.-The city trus-
tees last night heard evidence in sup
port of and against the charges made
against City Electrical Inspector
Crates by Manager Allen of the South
west Electrical company. Mr.. Allen
claimed Crates has solicited business
for the Independent company; in tact'
has even told persons who gave work
to the Southwest company that they
should give it to the Independent COM
pany, saying he would not pass work
by the Southwest company. This con-
tention was supported by a letter from
n. w. Best now on vacation at the
coast who said Crates told him he
would not pass work by the Southwest
company.
Crates denied this, saying he merely
told Best he would not issue permit
for the work to the Southwest COM
pany. this because the company had
not paid up inspection fees. For sew
eral days he refused to issue any per-
mits to the company, he says. until
they paid up all fees. Allen also
brought charges against work done pY
the Independent company, and said 1T
was defective, but was passed by
Crates, who made even more require
ments of the Southwest company than
required in the ordinance.
The trustees finally referred the mat
ter to a committee to investigate the
work on which complaint was made
and report at the next meeting.

ORANGE TREE FUMIGATORS
BEGIN WORK IN ORCHARDS
County Employees Attack Scale with
Vigor, Under Direction of COM
missioner j. 7. Morris

ONTARIO. Aug. 26.-The fumigators
in this section began work Monday.
This week is being spent in fumigating
the trees on the small lots Next week
will see the gangs at work on the larger
orchards.
The work in this end of the county is
under the direct supervision of Horti-
cultural Commissioner ]. I. Morris, a
local resident. Commissioner Morris
states the groves are in a poor condi-
tion this year, and more of them will
require fumigating.
The cost of fumigating a ten-acre
orange grove is from $3.50 to $175. The
county pays the BILL and then charges
it to the owner, who must reimburse
the authorities within thirty days.
San Bernardino county has at present
500 tents, which cost an average of S45
apiece. This makes some $4,000 in
vested in tents alone.
Quite recently the county purchased
sixty tons of cyanide at 26 cents a
pound, and 120 tons of acid at 21a cents
n pound, Jacob lesson of Ontario hav-
ing the contract to supply the county.
The weather has been ideal for the
work.

WITH FRANCHISE REQUEST
Promoter Who Has Asked for Rail-
way Right of Way Will
Name Backers

SAN BERNARDINO, Aug 26.-In
order to demonstrate to the mayor and
city council that he is in earnest in
his request for the safe of an electric
railway franchise through certain
streets of this city Fred Durham, who
filed the petition, is now in Los An
geles in a conference with the hackers
of the move for the purpose of formal
ly organizing the company and naming
the list of directors.
Throughout the proceedings with the
council in an effort to secure the ad-
vertising of the sale the utmost secrecy
has been maintained is to the back
ers of the move and it was openly
hinted in the council chamber that it
was merely a speculative deal In
view of the fact that one of the thor
oughfares on which the electric con-
Germ wishes to run its rails is about
to be paved by the residents the coun-
ell declined to take any action until
the matter was fully investigated and
it definitely shown that the men wish
ing the franchise mean to construct
the line.
