SAN PEDRO RECEIVES THE
REPORT WITH ENTHUSIASM

SAN PEDRO, June S.-The voters
and taxpayers of this city have re-
ceived the synopsis of the report filed
today with the city council of Los An
geles with much enthusiasm, and those
who have knowledge of all that the
full text of the report contains predict
that the most skeptical citizen whose
views on THE subject are not biased by
undue influence will upon reading the
report be convinced that Los Angeles
means business, and that the backing
of all of the civic bodies, the harbor
commission, the Associated Jobbers and
the press will guarantee that the rec
concentrations will be carried out and
San Pedro and Wilmington harbors be
improved commensurate with the pop
ulation and progressivene- of South
ern California.
The petitions of the election are ready
for circulation, and tomorrow or next
day will see the opportunity given to
the voters to affix their signatures to
the petitions which will call the cleo
ton which, if successful, will mean the
building up of this section of the coun-
| try and provide a harbor second to
none.
Although much opposition is to be
expected from certain @uarters, no fear

sition.
The local consolidation committee has
the situation well in hand, and the or
ganiza ton prior to ''le election will be

Impatient enthusiasts will now be
able to work off steam, and willing
workers will circulate the petitions for
the election, which when carried will,
it is believed, be of benefit to not only
San Pedro and Los Angeles, but the
whole southwest, which is interested
in making a free harbor for Los An
geles.

a full and complete report of their
findings and recommendations to

and fully considered by this body,

Whereas, by direction of the
city council this commission COM

now pending, whereby this COM
mission confidently believes there
will be recovered from private in
terests about 1900 acres of tide
lands in the inner or Wilmington
harbor, acquired by them through
a fnisinterpretation of the law, of
the value of not less than $5000,-
600, which will afford at least
$4,000 feet of additional harbor
frontage, making available at least
SO, 900 feet in the inner and outer
harbors, which will be under the
control of the consolidated munich
pality, thus affording the CONSOLE
dated city the opportunity of
building one of the great if not
the greatest municipality owned
and controlled harbors of refuge
and commerce in the world.
Therefore, be it resolved, by
the harbor commission of the city
of Los Angeles, that the recon-
mendations by the consolidation
committee of the expenditure of
$4,000, 900 within the next ten years
for the improvement of the outer
harbor at San Pedro and the inner
harbor at Wilmington is a con-
sentative businesslike recommend

said harbors fully justify such an
expenditure and that we do hereby
ratify and confirm all of the find
ings in said report and do approve
of all of the recommendation
therein contained.

TT is larger in its possibilities than
the aqueduct in many ways. A great
public harbor, achieved on the plan
outlined, will bring greater returns to
every person in Los Angeles than any
thing else that has so far been under
taken"
Harbor experts who have given close
study to the possibilities of a great
municipal port at San Pedro and Will
mington say that it will raise the rate
of wages and salaries in Los Angeles
to a standard equal to that of any
eastern city and permit the establish
ment of manufacturing enterprises on a
vast scale. These facts and what they
mean in building up a city of 100000
inhabitants in Los Angeles county
have been repeatedly pointed out and
substantiated by Joseph H. Call, A. P.
Fleming and Captain Amos A. Fries
in discourses on the harbor.

SIDE STREETS
WILL BE IMPROVED
IMPROVEMENT ASSOCIATION
DISCUSSES PAVING
Councilman Dromgold Meets with Or
qanization and Outlines System,
Which Is Approved by Menu
bers Present

The East Side Improvement assocla-
ton held a meeting last evening at
Conaty hall for the purpose of discuss
ing the proposed paving of the streets
i'm that section of the city.
Work will be begun in the near future
on all streets crossing Downey avenue
from the Los Angeles river to Eastlake
avenue, the proposition being to pave
these streets one block south and two
blocks north of Downey avenue.
Councilman r. w. Dromgold ad-
dressed the association, of which Jo-
seph Mesmer is president. Mr.. Drom-
gold spoke of the importance to that
district of an adequate system of street
improvement, and said the only way TO
do it properly is to form a district as
outlined above. He said the east side
has a population of $4,000, and that
more people own their homes in that
section than in any other section of
the city. He spoke of the fact that
what little opposition had heen encoun-
tered had been mainly from the more
well-to-do citizens, but that these were
happily in the minority. Mr. Drom-
gold explained in detail the process of
matchmaking a street, dwelling on the
process known as oil macadamization,
which will be used on all of the streets
on which there is not a car line On
streets occupied by car line asphalt will
be used. He stated that the maximum
cost of paving the streets, providing
they were all done at one time, thereby
procuring better rates, will be not to
exceed $1.75 a lineal foot for sixty
foot street without 81 car line.
This amount would be paid off in ten
years. He showed the slight additional
cost of paving the streets would be
infinitesimal when compared to the in
creased value of the property. On Pas
adena avenue, said Councilman Drom-
gold, the cost lineal foot is $1.S5 per
year.
Regarding Avenue 90" he continued,
much opposition has been met with
in that quarter, but I sincerely trust 1t
will be speedily overcome. Mission
road" said he, will be improved as
soon as possible, but deeds to much of
the land must be first -o~-lred. which
will consume, in all probability, about
four months"
A motion was made and carried that
the association indorse the plans for
improving the district,

WILMINGTON ELATED OVER
COMMITTEES RESOLUTION

WILMINGTON, June S.-Residents
of Wilmington are greatly pleased win
the conprehensiveness of the CONSOLE
dation committees report regarding
the larger city's attitude toward the
rights of wilmington, and particularly
in relation to the continuation and en-
largement of the municipal improve
ments on the harbor already started by
the Wilmington trustees. Petitions are
already in circulation here and will be
quickly signed up and forwarded to
the Los Angeles city council.
F. S. Carey, who attended the coun-
ell meeting at Los Angeles today was
greatly pleased with the outcome:
consolidation as it has been worked
out means a great deal for Whining
ton" he said tonight. Il believe in a
few years we shall see population of
$4,000 to 10000 here, engaged in trans
action of an immense shipping bust
ness. The harbor movement as it has
been developed and promises to work
out means the saving of millions of
dollars annually to Los Angeles county
in freight rates alone"

COMMITTEE REGARDS WORK
AS HAVING JUST BEGUN

The consolidation committee regards
its work as merely well under way
rather than finished. and it's plans con-
template fully as active work in the
next two months as it has had since
the organization of the committee in
March. vigorous campaign will be
conducted to arouse an appreciation of
the magnitude and far-reaching bene-
fits of the harbor project.
Il regard today's action as the most
important that has been taken by the
city council of Los Angeles" said Les
lie r. Hewitt who as a member of the
consolidation committee and as city
attorney has had a double reason for
intimate study of the harbor question.

TWO SIDES TO QUESTION.
Peon LABOR May Not Be So Very
Bad After All.

In discussing the opinions of ex-
Governor Mcconnell. OF Idaho, who
expressed himself on the beet sugar
industry while, in the valley recently,
the Las Animas Democrat has the
following to say:
There are six beet sugar factor
les in this valley and they all at the
present time are making thousands
of tons OF sugar every day. Were
it not for this peon labor it would not
be possible for them to operate. for
the reason any other labor than peon
labor cannot be had And for the in
formation Of Mr.. Mcconnell it might
be stated these peon laborers receive
ior their labor an average of from
three to five dollars a day. American
labor will not go into the beet fields
at any price.
The former governor OF Idaho raps
all other business enterprises where
foreign labor is employed. In this
as in the beet sugar question he eN-
poses his ignorance OF conditions that
prevail in the industrial world. How
many Americans can be found in the
coal mines OF Huerfano and Las Ami
mas counties? Very few. And yet
there isn't clerk or laboring man
in any town in the Arkansas Valley
that receives as much pay Tor day
or months work as does the aver
age coal miner in these two counties.
The American labor man will not
work in coal mines, and for this no
blame is attached to him, for il is a
dogs life. unwholesome and danger
Gus. II producing coal depended on
American labor the big steel works
at Pueblo would not be in operation,
neither would the metaliferous mines
and many other manufactures
