WILL ASK PASSAGE
OF SUNDAY REST BILL
Leaders Are Active in Presenting
Claims for Change of Law for
the First Day of the
Week

1t has been determined by the Inter
national Reform Bureau of California
the nature of the Sunday rest law
which it will ask of the next Legislature.
This action will determine also the
lines to be followed in the state cam
paign now being inaugurated. DR.. G.
l.. Tufts, who represents the northern
division, arrived in Los Angeles Tues
day and left this morning for Ell Paso,
Texas, While here he met in confer
ence with Rev. w. e. Perry, field Sec
retary of the southern division and his
executive committee, the purpose be-
ing TO make definite arrangements re-
garding the proposed bill.
With reference to the proposed bill
Rev. Mr.. Perry said yesterday:
1.-The bill which will be introduced in
the legislature will be a general Sun
day closing measure applying to stores,
barber shops, saloons and all places
of business alike. The aim will be to
secure to all a legally protected rest
day which the bureau contends is the
inherent right of every man, since
science declares that no man can toll
for seven days out of the seven with
out injury to his physical and menta
well being The individual is left to

FINAL DECISION MADE AT MEET
ING HELD YESTERDAY
Tunnel Work Nearly Done and En-
eineers See Profit for City in
Earliest Possible COM
pIetion of Work

The Owens river aqueduct will be
completed by May l, 1912. one year
earlier than it was promised and sew
eral years earlier than some of the
knockers" had anticipated.
| This matter was fully decided at
meeting of the finance committee of
| the city council, the board of public
works, the engineers in charge of the
aqueduct, William Mulholland, Mayor
! Alexander, City Engineer Homer Ham
! lin, Assistant City Attorney John w.
| Shenk and Aqueduct Counsel w. b.
Mathews.
This is one of the plans Mulholland
and the aqueduct department have
had up their sleeves for several months
but they were not prepared to push
the project without taking the finance
committee into their confidence.
The advice of the finance committee
was needed because, in order to bring
the Owens river water to Los Angeles
one year earlier than was anticipated
by the most optimistic plans, it will
be necessary to incur the entire indebt-
ness of the S23,000000 bond issue one
year earlier and that means the city
must raise, by general taxation in 1911
about $250O0O more for interest on
bonds than would be necessary other
WISE 1t was the unanimous opinion
of every one present at the meeting
that a quarter of million dollars was
small item against beating expecta-
tions a whole year.
Revenue Begins Earlier
To offset the increased taxation, the
water will be here in time for the irri-
eating season of 1912 and it will at
once become a revenue producer cut
ting down succeeding interest taxation
more and more every year. In addi-
ton to the earlier sale of water, it
will be possible to develop and sell the
power a year earlier than was antici-
pated. One of the biggest gains Los
Angeles will receive will be that its
credit will be on a stronger foundation
than ever before. To show the world
that an immense project of this kind
can be done by this municipality in
four years, when experienced engineers
have contended it would require ten,
will give investors a confidence in Los
Angeles that nothing else could ac-
complish.
To finish the aqueduct by 1912 1t will
be necessary to use more cement and
