NO REVERSAL OF TROLLEY IN
LIMITS OF BUSINESS ZONE

LOS ANGELES, Feb. 4.-TEditor
HeraldI: If your paper is interested in
me laudable enterprise Of seeking to
remedy street car congestion, kindly
consider the ordinance that prevails in
many eastern cities, notably in Boston
TO the effect that no trolley car shall
pe permitted to reverse it's trolley
within the business zone Of the citv 4
loop must be devised in some manner
and followed.
The reversal of the trolley stops traf
nc on both the incoming and the out
going tracks. At street intersection
IKE First and Spring or Second and
Spring it retards traffic on the inter
sectlng lines. The condition Of affairs
at Sixth and Main is scandalous. And
now Hill street, between Fourth and
flIth, is also to be transformed into a
switching yard, particularly during the
period of heavy traffic. The engineers
OF the street railways, and even the
reporters of the newspapers, could
work out a scheme of loops, if thev
would. The new station of the Pacific
Electro, If located on Hill street. be-
tween Sixth and Seventh, would have
made possible a loop around Central
park and Olive street 1t would b..
greatly to the advantage Of the rail-
ways themselves if they only thought
so to have the loop system thorougbIv
and universally installed.

RECALL MAYOR HARPER

Nor business as well as moral rea-
sons the recall of Mayor Harper
will be of advantage to the city
Of Los Angeles. Even the somewhat
astonishing citizens who are saying
Mayor Harper is good enough for them
might we'll give ear to the assertion
that Mayor Harper is not good enough
for the business interests Of Los An
geles. The stability of the credit of
this great and famous city depends on
the integrity, honesty and ability of
Il public officials. It is therefore of
Importance to the business interest Of
t community at a critical and i'm
portant time in the business and finan-
cal history of the community, to have
an experienced, sagacious, honest and
upright business man at the head of
civic affairs.
In the public service Los Angeles
must have the best men who can be
induced to serve in that capacity, and
especially she must have the, BEST
available citizen for mayor, and not
one whose administration may provoke
SNSlA OOAIlIlCAlI cS Will AAhedIly III TURN
provoke perhaps a doubt in certain
financial minds as to the ability of
Los Angeles to make good" and to
complete without interruption or ac-
cident due to official negligence or GU
pidity the great public enterprises she
has undertaken. OF course she will
make good. There is no question as to
that-not a possible shadow of doubt.
But she should not be embarrassed by
the presence in important public Of

Angeles, and who have already demon

graft cigars and explosive whisky, for
dance hall managers and divekeepers,

QUOTES FINE PASSAGE FROM
MAETERLlNCK ON RELIGION

ALHAMBRA, Feb. 4.-[Editor Her
add: Religionists don't know the diff
ference between morality and dog
matism. Morality is a product of evo-
luton; it is a result of the law of self
preservation. Nature demands moral
ity, for it's very existence depends upon
it. Real morality is based on biology,
a fact the lawmakers, present and past,
have not always needed.
Religion has served a purpose, but
am not the attorney for the other side.
II has a million paid representatives
and five billion dollars worth of un-
taxed property in the U. S. A.
l chide religion for its pretentioUs
bigotry and affectations. 1t pretends
to hold the secrets of the unknown. 1T
insults mankind by calling him an
unworthy worm. Yes: it would take
the stiffness out of the spine of human
ity and keep it in the cradle of blind
faith.
Science triumphs over religion, which
says "Thus saith the Lord Il know"
by saying 81 don't know" Truth is a
present necessity, and when unnecessa-
ry is no longer truth.
In conclusion will say, with Maeter-
linck: Il shall be happier than you.

AS TO THE POOR
NOT PROPHECY, BUT REBUKE

ORANGE, Feb. 3.-[EditOr Herald1:
''The poor ye have always with you"
I again quote this text in order to
mention that some people see in it not
only an excuse for poverty, but a pre-
diction' that it will always exist. | fail
to see either, but merely a rebuke to
Judas, who had spoken grudgingly re-
garding the expense of the ointment
bestowed on Jesus, who thus reminded
him that if he wished to help the poor
he did not lack opportunity, as they
were always near. This idea is borne
out by preceding verse: This he
(Judas) said, not that he cared for the
poor, but because he was thief and
had the bag, and bare what was put
therein John 1876.
The words spoken by Jesus on that
occasion regarding poverty then exist
ing do not furnish an excuse for want
and suffering being endured in our
time, as conditions are now so different,
and the time-worn text should have
another reading in the light of modern
development and our greater resources.
In considering the abolition of poverty
we must remember that it is a COM
parative thing, many being called poor
who yet have sufficient for all their
real needs. That we are not now con-
cerned with, but the priVation and want
which, though less in degree in Cali
fornia than in other states, was suffi-
GENTLY in evidence at the time when
The Herald generously attempted to
relieve it during the holidays.
Here is a statement for discussion.
The means Of providing for human
need, food, clothing and shelter have
been so multiplied that there should be
plenty for all. Therefore real poverty
is unnecessary, indefensible and a dis
grace to the age and nation. L. w.

MAN HAS DENIED LIBERTY
TO ALL; WOMAN DEMANDS 1T

LOS ANGELES, Feb. 4.-[Editor
Herald: The liberty Of women means
the salvation of the world. 1t is not a
bloody butchery like the Christian
war that history makes so much Of.
1t is a real fight for the home, not an
excuse for butcheries.
Man shAs denied liberty to all crea-
denies it to the mother that gave him
life at the possible cost of her own.
His unexpressed reason is: Woman is
sex slave. He himself is, ninety-nine
times out of a thousand, the unavoid-
cJle result of the qualification of his
f-ther's passion on the body of his sex
slave. Therefore his debt is not so
great after all. The mother love is an
ftermath.
The foundation Of the home under
the present conditions is this animal
passion of man for some woman. She
being a sex slave has no choice but to
yield when the man demands that she
become an inmate Of his home. She
has no choice but to yield when he
demands that she become a mother.
The man may be absolutely unfit to
father a child, but neither the woman
or the child must be considered against
the appetite of man. He is master
SO say church and state. His will is
law. SO say church and state. He
may beget cripples, criminals, imbe-
Giles. Who is there to question his
Givine right?
And woman, standing for the rights
of herself and her unborn children,
steps forth today and says, II question
our right
L demand that the marriage laws be
such that the home will be true
haven Of peace and rest and not a
larem for mankind to keep his painted
puppets until he tires of them.
/ demand that woman be selected
for her noble qualities and not for a
sex slave. Then we will have homes
that will be homes.

OUR CANDIDATE

NIT1ZENS of Los Angeles will learn
with profound regret that the ILL
ness of Mrs. Stephens has caused
the distinguished and popular leader
who was chosen as the candidate for
the mayoralty to decline the nomina-
ton. Mr.. Stephens heart is with the
good cause, and he was willing and
anxious to have represented the best
interests of the city of Los Angeles in
the mayoralty fight if circumstances
had permitted. Nothing short of seri-
Gus and distressing conditions could
possibly have led him to decline the
nomination. Neither political nor busi-
ness reasons would have made him
hesitate.
The sympathy Of the community will
be with Mr.. Stephens, who, in the part
he has taken in the fight for clean
government in Los Angeles, has already
shown much devotion to public inter-
tests.
The work of substituting for the
present administration one that will
represent Les Angeles and be credit
to the city will go forward. In this
community are many honest, capable,
upright men, who would do their duty
in any political Office to which they
might be elected. We believe there will
be no difficulty in finding an upright
patriotic citizen who will do the work
which unfortunately Mr.. Stephens has
found it impossible to undertake.
The next mayor in all probability
will have to serve for nearly four
years, and during that time Los Ange-
les will make history" We hope that
part of the history will consist of the
clean record of an able and patriotic
city administration, under the chief
tainship of a candidate who will repre-
sent the business ability and the Amer
icanism which characterize our great
city. The next mayor will have the
advantage of the reforms resulting
from the charter amendments, and
there is every reason to rejoice in the
prospect of good government, progress
and prosperity to which Los Angeles
may with confidence look forward.

PHYSICAL BODIES ARE MERE
FORMS ENCASING THE SPIRIT

POMONA, Feb. 3.-[Editor Herald:
The question asked by 1. H. Brown in
the Public Letter Box in a late issue
of The Herald, Where is pain when
man is unconscious?" also that by
Claiming Severance, ''When a man is
unconscious where is his mind, and
what is it doing?" suggests another
question to me: When a man is asleep,
where is he? These questions can only
be answered from a spiritual stand
point. We are taught that God is
spirit, that we are spiritual entities,
children of God. That our bodies are
temples of the living Cod When
from sleep or any other cause the body
becomes unconscious the real man
(spiriD is still alive. The real mind
(spiri) has temporarily separated itself
from the physical brain, but works on
unimpeded, for it is of God or spirit
that spirit in which we live, move
ID have our being" or existence. The
real man knows no pain, no uncon-
sciousness.
Nature is the material from which
God (spirit) builds forms only. Back
to nature (earth) goes all material or
earthly things. The flowers that
bIoom, SO far as forms go, wither and
die, but the spirit (God) that gave
them form gradually leaves them when
JnlS WOfk IS QOne. Inc same is true
of all forms in nature.
The full realization of what is re-
veals the nothingness of what is not
Surely then, if God is God, is all in all,
the nothingness of what is not God
stands revealed.
The real man (spirit) being one with
this living eternal spirit (God), while
hampered by the physical body, forms
and reforms his conception of spiritual
facts until he comes into full knowl-
edge of the oneness of all.
