PRECINCT LEAGUES
INDORSE ALEXANDER
PASS RESOLUTIONS URGING
MAYOR TO STAND
Voters of Five Districts Ask lncun-
bent to Allow His Name to
Be Placed in Nomi-
nation

AS evidence of their intention to sup
port Mayor George Alexander for re-
election if he will consent to stand for
that office in the fall elections members
of the Fourteenth, Sixteenth, Seven
teenth, Eighteenth and Twenty first
precincts good government organiza-
tions have issued the following open
letter, following a meeting held last
week:
"In support of the subjoined resolu-
tion the following facts are recited.:
1.-THE manly resistance made by
George Alexander against all forms of
financial corruption while serving as
supervisor brought on him the wrath
of the machine, and he was refused an
other term. The people approved his
course by an independent reelection.
Again he proved his public worth by
saving the taxpayers enormous sums of
money aggregating nearly half mil
lion of dollars.
"Honored with the peoples choice as
mayor, in the short time of four
months he has made himself thorough
ly familiar with all municipal affairs,
removed official fbarnacles' and para
sites, put down graft resisted sue
cessfully monopolistic encroachments,
compelled the fuifillment of contracts
between public utility corporations and
the city, has been wise in his appoint
ments of honest and capable men to
office, has guarded the interests of the
already oVerburdened taxpayers, cared
for the welfare of labor as well as of
capital, brilliantly represented the city
as it's first citizen socially and has re-
1ected honor upon himself and his con-
stituents.
"He was one of the most active and
efficient promoters of the Wilmington
San Pedro consolidation.
"He has caused the police to enforce
ordinances.
He takes orders from no man nor
set of men.
HE is not allied with any corpora
tion seeking or holding monopolies
"His services as supervisor and
mayor show that he is worthy of per-
feet public confidence and prove be-
yond the shadow of a doubt his integ-
rity and his ability to continue to lead
and represent the people of Greater
Los Angeles in their ever onward
march of development in the bringing
of the owens river water within the
city's limits, in the building of its free
harbor and the creation of it's worlds
commerce.
"Resolved by members of the Four
teenth, sixteenth, Seventeenth, Eigh-
teenth and Twenty y-first precinct clubs
of the good government organization
in mass meeting assembled that George
Alexander is earnestly requested to al
low circulation of petitions for his NOM
ination as mayor"
Tomorrow night organization of the
apostles of civic uprightness in politics
living in the Fifteenth precinct will be
effected by workers in the good gov
ernment organization at the corner of
Duane and Alessandro streets.

SUIT CASE MYSTERY Is
SoLvED THROUGH PAPER
Story of Exch Npge of Grips Is Read by
Woman an Proper Owners
Are 'ound

The battling mystery of the suit case
has been solved, and the explanation
reveals a strange coincidence.
William F. Schultheiss of San Diego
reported to the police Thursday that a
suit case belonging to him had been
stolen while he was riding on a Holly
wood car to Los Angeles. In it's place
ne found suit case bearing the name
of Mrs. ]. Wilde with Los Angeles
address.
All efforts to locate Mrs. Wilde failed,
but yesterday morning after reading
an account of the suit case mystery in
The Herald she telephoned to police
headquarters and solved the mystery.
Mrs. Wilde stated that she moved
from Los Angeles three years ago and
has been living in San Diego, where
Mr. Schultheiss also lives. She was a
passenger on the same car and mad
Vertentlyi stated that she picked up the
wrong suit case.
The exchange of few telephone
messages settled the matter, and Mr..
Schultheiss now has his own case and
the one belonging to Mrs. Wilde was
forwarded to San Diego from the police
station yesterday.

DESPONDENTM MAN
COMMITS SUICIDE
SOLICITOR KILLS HIMSELF BY
'o !NHALING GAS
PURCHASES WHISKY AND POISON
BEFORE SEEKING DEATH
Goes Into Bathroom, Turns on Instan-
taneous Heater and Lies Down
on Floor-Found by
Wife

Morris G. Smith, 25 years old, So
licitor who lived at 2021 Downey ave-
nue., committed suicide late yesterday
afternoon by inhaling illuminating gas
in the bath room of his home.
Smith had been in bad health for
long time, and was respondent. Dur
ing the absence of his wife from home
yesterday he left the house and went
down town, where he pawned his watch
for 81 in a secondhand store. With
the money thus secured he purchased
a pint bottle of whisky and bought a
ouantitv of poison, but later evidently
decided that the gas route was easier.
He went into the bath room of his
house and turned on the instantaneous
heater without lighting it, and lay
down on the floor after stopping up
the key hole in the door and the cracks
in the window. He was found by his
wife some hours after death had over
taken him. The body was removed to
Bresee Bros morgue and the coroner
notified.

TO PLAY AT WASHINGTON
AND CIMARR0N STREETS
Second of Series of Band Concerts
to Be Given by Citizens
Tonight

The second series of band concerts
will be given at Washington and Cim-
arron streets tonight at 7:45 o'clock
The concert last Saturday night was
we'll attended and well received. 1t
was a surprise to many of the citizens,
some taking it to be a political move
while others thought it was a town
lot boom or some other advertising
dodge. But when 1t became known
that the concerts are given solely for
the purpose of getting the community
together in a friendly and social way
everybody was pleased.
It is hoped that the action of the
citizens in the district between Adams
and Pico in starting these concerts
will stimulate other sections to the
same end and the whole matter VIII
eventuate in a municipal band for all
parts of the city. The city branch of
the Catalina band under Cramer Will
play tonight.

TWO INSTITUTIONS WILL BE
MERGED

To Become Department on Same Basis

Constitute the Uni
Versity

That the College OF Physicians and
Surgeons, at Trinity and Washington
streets, will be merged with the Uni
versity of California, and will be the
medical department of the university,
is an assured fact. Announcement of
the arrangement will be made today
by officials of the university. The name
of the institution will be the College
of Physicians and Surgeons, Medical
department of the University of South
ern California.
DR.. Charles w. Bryson, who has
been head of the College of Physicians
and Surgeons, will remain with the
new institution, although he would
make no statement last night regarding
the new status of the college.
DIR. Bovard president of the unl-
versity. while affirming the report,
would make no definite statement un-
til today when official announcement
win be made by DR.. James Main DIX
on of the university.
The college as it will be arranged
will take the place of the medical

Alumni in Dilemma
Whether the alumni of the old medi-
cal department will go with the new
institution and be allied with the q. S.
G.. or go with the medical department
TO the state university is not definitely
known. =
The College of Physicians and Sur
geons graduated the first class, having
taken the full course at that institution
last June, and has a free clinic con-
nected with it for the benefit of the
public as well as the instruction of
the students.
The physicians and surgeons will be-
Gin the school year as an affiliated
school of the university on the same
basis as the seven colleges which now
constitute the university.
This announcement, although it has
been known among the doctors for
several weeks, will come as a surprise
to the general public, as the Methodists
of Southern California conference had
rather expected that a medical depart
ment would be instituted in connection
with the new Methodist hospital which
is to be { pened on South Hope street

LIGHTS FOR NOTHING.
Atlantic Highlands Electric Light
Plan Also Shows Profits.

The annual report of the borough of
Atlantic Highlands, which has just
been published, shows that the income
from incandescent or commercial
lighting last year paid all the operat-
ing expenses of the borough plant,
including extensions of the system
and interest on bond, and left a sur
plus besides.
At the beginning of last year an ap-
preparation of $4,000 was made for the
street lights, something that had ne
yer been done before, and this item
appears in the report as a receipt of
the electric light department. The
total receipts of the year and the ac-
counts receivable aggregate $13,279.43.
Of this amount $S,056.72 was for in
candescent lights. The total expen-
ditures and bills payable aggregate
$9,716.68, leaving balance of 1852
rs or $62.75 more than the appropria-
tion for arc lights. This means that
Atlantic Highlands got it's street light
ing last year for nothing-and little
bit better The town has 76 arc lights
and they burn all night every night in
the year.
