PLAN is OUTLINED
FOR ART EXHIBIT
CHAUTAU0UA DIRECTORS TAKE
FAVORABLE ACTION
lection of canvases by California
Artists - Committee
Appointed
Especial to The Herald. ]

LONG BEACH, Dec. 29.-The direc-
tors of the Long Beach Chautauqua as
sociation this morning voted to carry
out a plan for an art exhibit, as out
lined in a report submitted by Malcolm
Macleod of Los Angeles and approved
by Hector Alliott the Los Angeles art
critic.
The Chautauqua directors some time
ago decided to devote the interest from
their permanent fund to the mainten-
ance of such a fund. The interest will
be about $400 year, with which 1t is
thought a start on a creditable ex-
hibition can be made.
Mr. Macleod recommended that two
thirds of the money be expended in a
permanent exhibit, and one-third in
promoting an exhibition at the library
art gallery by California artists. this to
be held, preferably, In the summer. He
also suggested what styles of pictures
and frames should be chosen for a
permanent exhibit The proper COM
mittee was authorized to carry out the
recommendations.

MAYOR OF RIVERSIDE
IS ON THE WARPATH
DEMANDS SCALP OF LIGHTING
PLANT HEAD
Latter Refuses to Send in Resiqna-
ton, and the Orange City Is
Thrown Into COM
motion
Especial to The Herald.i


RIVERSIDE, Dec. 29.-There is de-
cided stir in municipal circles due to
the fact that Mayor Evans has re-
quested the resignation of Fred A.
Worthley, who has been superintendent
of the city electric lighting plant from
its start more than a dozen years ago.
No reason is given for this action on
the part of the mayor, but 1t is stated
that Frank F. Chase, chairman of the
board of public utilities, some time
since told the mayor that either he or
Worthley must resign, and that the
mayor wGs induced to side against the
city electrician.
The city electrician is appointed by
the board of public utilities under the
new charter, the appointment being
merely confirmed by the mayor Every
member of the board refuses to make
any statement regarding the mayors
action, and the mayor himself has de-
clined to make an explanation of his
action in requesting the resignation.
Mr. Worthley is generally believed to
be competent electrical engineer, and
the municipal lighting and power plant
under his administration has been
highly successful, being cited as an
example of successful municipal owner
ship. Last year the plant cleared
practically $4,000, and has been profit
able since its organization. There have
been rumors that the city plant had
been purchased by the Edison corpora
ton, but these rumors are declared by
the mayor and the members of the
board of public utility to be without
any foundation.
Mr.. Worthley states that he was told
by the mayor II he would gracefully
resign he would be given a banquet
and other tokens of appreciation, but
he refused to accept the offer and re-
fuses to resign.
