USE OF GLASS BRICKS
viii Admit Light to the Dark Hall
ways and to Dark
Easements.

Germany uses glass bricks for build
ing purposes with measurable sue
cess. In Berlin is constructed a small
villa the walls Of which are built of
glass bricks of several shades of dark
green and blue. The glass bricks are
especially adapted to construction
where light, cleanliness and neatness
are particularly in demand In Ham
burg they are utilized in place of
windows. They admit light in walls
which police regulations require to
be fireproof and windowless
dark Railways, rooms etc, they are
said to possess the same strength as
ordinary clay bricks. They are also
utilized in walls in yards anC parti-
tons in the interior of houses, sales
rooms, Offices, workshops. etc, as well
as for the construction of verandas,
hothouses, kiosks, bathrooms, hospi-
tails, ice factories, butcher shops, rail-
road stations, breweries. stables and
in other places where cleanliness,
light and uniform temperatures are
especially desired
The bricks are also made with a
wire coating for fireproof walls. In
some of the recently erected buildings
in Milan, Italy, bricks made of glass
have been adopted for ground and up
per floors on account of the light OBJ
tanned. They are also coming into use
for partition work In some of the hos
pitfalls on account of the hygienic prin-
ciples.
In one of the leading banking insti.
tutions of the city { Turin the lobby
office floor, which is about 36x5S feet,
is entirely paved with glass bricks
laid in iron frames for the purpose Of
admitting light into the basement
where are located numerous private
boxes or vaults. In the Netherlands
hollow green transparent glass bricks
are used principally for light-giving
purposes in machine shops and con-
servatories.

A Boer had sold to a mission Kaffir
the carcass of an OK that had died
from lung sickness The missionary
demonstrated with him, and threat
ened to report him to the authorities.
The Boer expressed his surprise at
such language from a missionary,
saying he had acted strictly according
to Scriptural precept. The missionary
said he would not say another word
if the Boer could justify his act from
the Bible. The Boer thereupon asked
for Bible and referring to Deut.
14:21, read as follows:
"Ye shall not eat of anything that
dieth of itself; thou shalt give 1t to
the stranger that is within thy gates.
that he may eat it; or thou mayest

LAY PLANS FOR
AVIATION WEEK
FERRIS AND M. & M. COMMIT
TEE GO OVER DETAILS
WILL BEGIN IMMEDIATELY TO
COLLECT FUND REQUIRED
Manager of Event Promises Aeria
Exhibition Will Be Valuable to
Los kngeIes-Date Set for
January 1920

Aviation week matters were started
off with rush yesterday by the spe-
cial executive committee of the Mer-
chants and Manufacturers associa
tion. Practically the entire afternoon
was passed in going over details and
working out plans.
Dick Ferris, general manager of
Aviation week, submitted outlines of
numerous phases of the ten days pro-
gram, and these were thoroughly dis
cussed and approved. From now on
the committee and Mr. Ferris will put
in their time to make the aerial ex-
hibition the greatest thing which has
been seen in Los Angeles. The COM
mittee is actively at work completing
the necessary subscription list to as
sure the fund required.
Aviation week is sure go and it
will make the world sit up and talk
about Southern California" said Mr..
decided on every subscriber to the fund
will have a chance to get his money
back, for the committee adopted a
plan arranging for pro rata distribu-
tion of returns.
'It should be remembered every con-
tributor is helping to make possible
columns and columns of advertising
dil over Iilt WOIlu. E4NtIy paper anu
magazine will say something about
winter aviation in California.
'I look for the largest crowd which
ever has come to Los Angeles, but
there will be hundreds of thousands
who will not come who will read about
the flights over the green orange
groves in the worst part of winter and
who will gain a renewed conception
of the glories of California. That will
be the contribution of the subscribers
to the Aviation week fund to the peo-
pie of Southern California. l think
it is extremely conservative to say this
advertising will be worth more than
million dollars to this section. In
fact. it will be a boost to the whole
state, presented by the business in
terests of Los Angeles county"
While the big event will be known
as Aviation week, II will really COM
prehend ten days of flying. as the date
finally set yesterday is from January
10 to 20. Another move which will be
warmly approved by business men Is
the passage of a resolution providing
there shall be no advertising programs
of any kind allowed in connection with
the event.
Members of the committee will make
a tour today to investigate the best
site for the balloon park, which can
not be located at Arcadia because of
the expense for gas supply. Ascot
park a site near Eastlake park and
Pasadena are under consideration.
Los Angeles herald., 1909-11-23

But this does not foreciose a fur
ther examination of the words used
in the city charter, to ascertain
what they say and what they real
ly mean.
The section POP says that these
municipal elections are to be con-
Quoted and held in accordance
with the provisions of the laws of
the state for the holding of gene
raj elections. This brings US. to the
very question upon which this case
must depend.
When the superior court holds
session for the determination of an
election contest according to the
methods set forth in the code of
civil procedure, is the court hold
ing" the election? And if this
court in the present proceeding
should make a new count of the
ballots, would this court be still
holding the primary election?
l observe that the common un-
derstanding of these words would
not include a court contest as be
ing part of the conducting and
holding of the election. This is il
lustrated by the complaint now be-
fore the court. The plaintiff says
that a primary election was
held" on the tenth day of NoVem-
Der. And he says that the munlc-
ipal election is to be held on the
first Tuesday in December.
The city charter, in section 2O6th,
saws that the primary nominating
election shall be held not less
than three or more than five weeks
preceding the general election
There are now only fifteen days
until that election day. l am sure
that the hearing of this election
contest could not be construed as
part of the holding of the election,
within the meaning of section
2O6b.
Falls Back on "Words"
1t is a well established rule of
construction of statutes that words
are to be interpreted according TO
their common and well-under-
stood use among the people, or
among the particular class of peo-
pie to whom the words are pc
culiar. Applying this rule to the
words here under consideration, my
conclusion is that the conducting
and holding of the primary NOM
mating election in accordance with
the laws of the state for the hold
ing of general. elections does not
include a judicial inquiry into the
result of such election.
1t will be ordered that defend
ants motion be granted, and the
citation will be dismissed.

case were Edwin A. MerserVe for Nj

and w. T. Craig for Mr.. Mushet.
Isidor Margolis has ascertained, he
says. what melted his vote on the
morning of election day. Il was dou-
ble-crossed by the Liberal Alliance" ="
he said. II found that they had
printed a few hundred cards with my
name on as the ballot to be voted for.
| These We're for circulation only among
my friends in order to make votes for
Mushet. while elsewhere they said 1
was not in it," Mr.. Margolis' friends
claim that if everything had been
straight he would now have Doc
| Houghton's place on the ticket.
That DR.. ]. w. Jones received only
nominal vote after his campaign has
! been a subject of much comment. 1t
has been discovered that the Jones
vote was thrown on election day as
completely as possible into the Smith
camp. Automobiles and carriages
| placarded with the name of Jones were
really hauling voters placarded with
| the name of Smith. In one or two pre-
cincts, notably in Pico Heights, Smith
| committeeman directed the movements
of the Jones vehicles. 1t is estimated
THAT DR.. Jones had from 400 to 500
votes that his workers brought to the
| polls for Smith at the primary election.
Not content with swallowing the
Jones strength the Smith campaigners
have taken over the slogan, "A Village
or a City" which DR.. Jones hurled so
loudly into the California climate two
or three days before election. That
motto now heads the printed matter
which the Republican city central COM
mittee is sending out and is to be the
most talked of subject toward the end
of the campaign.
Good government meetings tonight
will be held at Diehls hall on Central
avenue and Adams street and at Sail
ors' hall in San Pedro. Lorin A. Hand
! ley will speak at the former meeting
and the precinct workers OF the Good
! Government organization have assured
him a rousing reception. Good govern
ment candidates will attend the San
| Pedro meeting, leaving the Peciiic
| Electric building with an extra car at
6:25 o'clock. The harbor meeting will
be entirely informal, and any candi-
date making long speech will be made
| to swim the channel, according to a
statement of the San Pedro reception

RESIGNATION OF POLICEMAN
is ACCEPTED WITH REGRET
Father-in-Law of PatroIman Roy L.
Allen Needs Him to Assist
on Ranch

The resignation of Patrolman Roy L.
Allen was accepted by the police com
mission last night with regrets. Allen
resigned because his father-in-laW
needs him to assist on his ranch at
Hollister, Cal.
A father-in-law is a new acquisition
for Allen, as he has been married
only during the past few months.
He has been on the force for six and
and a half years, and Chief Dishman
declared his record was excellent for
the entire time. The commission di-
rected Secretary McKeag to write a
letter to Allen conveying the commits
sion's sincere regrets at his resigna-
tion and wishing him success in the
future. This is a most unusual honor
as no such letter has ever been written
by a police commission to any other
patrolman.
