CHIEF DESIRES
100 MORE MEN
COUNCIL TO BE ASKED FOR
ADDITIONAL OFFICERS
pIsHMAN SAYS CITY is SHORT
IN PATRoLMEN
New Head of Police Force Declares
He Wishes to Have Los Angeles
Best Policed Town in
Country

Chief Dishman will make every effort
to induce the city council to appoint
a hundred additional patrolmen when
the matter comes up before that BODY
Tuesday.
1--WE are much in need of more Of
ficers," said Chief Dishman yester-
day. "At present the department is
short eighteen men, which is the re-
suit of deaths, designations and sus-
pensions. These vacancies will be filled
from the eligible list. When it is taken
into consideration the available force
is reduced because of the fact that a
number of the officers are occupied as
office men, wagonmen, jailers and spe-
cial detail, the number of those on duty
on the streets are not so many as most
persons think.
1.-The increase of 100 men will mean
only a cost of $1.50 per capita for
thorough police protection, basing the
cost of maintaining the department on
population of 100000.
81 want Los Angeles to be the best
policed city in the country and to
make it such it is necessary to have a
sufficient force"
Chief Dishman stated that the men
must perform their duty to the best
of their ability every minute of the
time they are connected with the de-
partment. He declared he would not
tolerate any attractions of the rules,
and suspensions and dismissals will be
the fate of those who fail to obey
orders,

DECLARES SPIRIT
AND SOUL ARE DIFFERENT

Mrs. Stevens in her regular lecture
in Blanchard Music hall yesterday aft
ernoon said:
Il am going to take it for granted
today that my audience is convinced Of
the existence of life beyond the grave
and the immortality of the spirit. You
will notice that we have definite
knowledge of the difference between
the spirit and the soul and do not use
the terms INTERCHANGEABLE. The spirit
is the individual-just as you now are
in your present state of development
while the soul is the spirit body or the
life forces that surround and sustain
the spirit. Just the position the soul
occupies in relation to mans develop
ment must be understood before we
can show mans true relationship to
unseen planes.
THE soul is something that can be
maintained or lost at the option of the
spirit The tremendous value of the
life elements that comprise the soul is
little understood or appreciated, al
though all religion for all time has
made the saving of the soul The objec-
tive point. You know Christ said,
What if you gain the whole world and
lose your own soul?' showing that the
soul is not the spirit ITSELF but some
thing that pertains to the lndlVldual
and may be saved or lost. Our strength
of body and power of mind and lhtelll-
gence depend on these life forces that
compose the soul, and the size of our
soul or our spiritual bank account de-
nends on the manner in which we OBJ
serve the natural law of spiritual pro-
gression. Many people have so broken
the law that they have no souls either
in this life or the next
