OPPOSED TO STAND
OF HARBOR LEAGUE
One of the Organizers Resigns
i'm Sharp Letter

OAKLAND, Sept. 1s.-Richard j..
Mont gomery, one of the founders of
the California river and harbor league
and member of its executive committee.
has resigned from the organization, his
letter of withdrawal being caustic in
his criticism of the organization.
His communication in part follows:
Have we not tried to consolidate the
cities of the east side of the bay for
good and economic reasons and failed?
Then why not follow in the footsteps of
Los Angeles in making this advance in
progressive steps? Are our individual
and associate views so set, so perfect
and so essential that any city adminis-
trative measure must be opposed be-
cause there may be something better?
With such policy prevailing in our
midst, the knocker of every municipal
Improvement, however meritoriOus. will
thrive. and | can see little hope for any
material advancement for harbor de-
velopment within the next 20 years.
unless the more enterprising of our cit
liens pull together, or unless an all
wise providence interyenes by creating
an unparalleled demand for cemetery
accommodations.

New Style In Statues.

A few days ago a bronze statue to
the memory Of Alexander r. Shep-
herd. one time BOSS" of Washington.
was erected in the plaza I'm front of
the new municipal building. While
the statue is doubtless a work Of art
and a good likeness Of the noted con-
tractor who converted the national
capital into a splendid city, 1t has
caused many staid citizens to smile.
Shepherd is shown standing, and his
bronze trousers are creased down the
front. such an edge being created that
one might sharpen a lead pencil there
on. Ii is cOntended that not only did
Shepherd not wear creases. but that
these dudish wrinkles" were not IN
vented in his day. Anyhow a new
style in statues IS started. All the 9TH
ers in Washington show the great men
Of the nation In baggy trousers.
