FEAR BUSINESS PLANTS
WILL INJURE PROPERTY
Owners Near Sixth and Beaudry
Make Earnest Plea Against
Proposed Ordinance

Driven almost to desperation by the
fear that their homes are to be dam
aged by the establishment of an in
cation of property owners from the
vicinity. of Sixth street and Beaudry
avenue visited the mayor yesterday
to plead with him to do something to
prevent the council from passing an
ordinance to except the property from
the residence district. The property
in question is in the rear of a house
at Sixth and Beaudry and on it is the
bakery Of the Davis Standard Bread
company. The bakery wants the prop
erty excepted from the residence dis
trict, so that it can enlarge its plant
and bake more bread.
The protestants told the mayor that
Councilman Gregory had given them
to understand that there were seven
members of the council who would
vote for the ordinance excepting the
property, and they wanted the mayor
to do something right away. The
mayor told them he could not prevent
the council taking any action it chose,
and that the ordinance would have to
be passed and come to him before he
could act. But he gave them assur-
ance that If it did come to him he
would do what he could to help them.
MAYOR OPPOSES ORDINANCE
"It would be one of the most un-
popular things the council could do to
pass such an ordnance" said the
mayor in discussing the matter later.
81 believe in the greatest good to the
greatest number and the homes of
those people would be seriously affect
ed If such an ordinance were passed.
1 signed the ordinance once, but / did
so on the positive assurance of one of
the councilmen that there was no pro-
test against it. I will not be likely
to repeat the mistake"
Four members of the council said
yesterday that they were opposed to
excepting this property from the resi-
dence district and two members de-
clared they had not made up their
minds. Councilmen Gregory and Bet
kouski favor the measure.
Councilmen Stewart, Whiffen, An
drews and O'Brien will not vote for
the ordinance and said so. Council
men Lusk and Washburn said they
had not fully made up their minds on
the matter.
EARLY STORM OF PROTEST
The ordinance to except this prop
erty from the residence district was
passed by the council several weeks
ago on the assurance Of Councilmen
Betkousli and Gregory that there
was no objection to it. No hearing
was held on the matter and the prop
erty owners in the vicinity declared
afterward that they did not know it
was being considered. But as soon
as the ordinance was passed and it
was known that the property had been
excepted a storm of protest broke
forth. This protest induced the coun-
Gil to repeal the ordinance.
Last Tuesday another request for
the exception was made and the mat
ter was referred to the legislation
committee, which will consider it
Monday afternoon. Councilman An
drews, who opposes the exception, is
chairman of the committee, and Coun-
cilmen Betkouski and Gregory, who
favor 1t, are the other members.

HAYWARD HOTEL ANNEX
WILL OPEN SEPTEMBER 29
Proprietor of HoSteIry to Enter
tain Newspaper Men

The official date for opening of the
new annex to the Hayward hotel, at
Sixth and Spring streets, has been set
for Wednesday, September %, by Har-
ry Fryman, proprietor of that hos
telry. Work is being rushed on the
new addition, which the growing con-
ditions in Los Angeles has made neces-
sary and by next Wednesday it is
hoped to have everything in readiness.
The feature of the new building of
which Mr. Fryman is particularly
proud is the gentlemen's Pompeiian
buffet. The decorations of this room
were planned entirely by Mr.. Fryman
and he claims that there is not an
other like it in the United States.
The addition is three-stories high and
the rooms on the second and third
floors are all large sample rooms
for accommodating the commercial
trade which comes to Los Angeles.
Every room has a bath in connection
and each is fitted out in the most up
to-date manner. On the opening day
Mr. Fryman has extended an invita-
ton to all the newspaper men in Los
Angeles to be his guests for an hour
at the hotel. The exact hour for their
attendance will be arranged and an
nounced later.

IMPROVEMENT is URGED
ON SUNSET BOULEVARD
East Hollywood Board of Trade
Plans Roadway Work

Improvement of Sunset boulevard be-
tween Benefit street and Normandie
avenue is requested by the good roads
committee of the East Hollywood board
of trade. The committee shows that
sixteen feet on the southwest side of
the boulevard between the Los An
geles Pacific tracks and the curb has
been improved with macadam with
the good roads bond money, but that
the other side of the street has not
been touched in the last six years and
is little better than a country road.
The petitionaris say that the East
Hollywood district has paid $1,000 into
the county road fund during the last
year and they want the city to collect
this amount and use it to improve the
portion of the street in question.
The street lighting committee of the
same organization asked that arrange
ments be made for the city to pay a
portion of the cost of lighting Holm
by avenue between Franklin and Holly
wood boulevard. This block Is now
lighted by the private property own
ers while the rest of the district is
lighted at the general expense.

News of the Courts
WIDOW DENIED CONTROL
OF HUSBANDS ESTATE
Court Makes Nephew of lanes
Pedgrift Executor Ac-
Cording to Will

Despite the objections of the widow,
James H. Pedgrift yesterday was made
executor of the estate of his uncle,
James Pedgrift. who left an estate
valued at $4,000.
The action was taken by Judge Rives
of the probate department of the SUI
perior court. He paid no attention to
the objections Of the widow and made
the nephew the executor, as asked by
the dead man In his WILL
According to the latter instrument
the wife is to have a life interest in
the estate and after her death it is
to be divided among nephews and
nieces of the devisor.
The widow, Ann Pedgrift, declares
that the nephew beguiled her and her
husband into an arrangement by which
she relinquished all rights to commu-
nifty property to the extent of $4,000,
under the belief that the estate was
worth between $4,000 and 100000.
Since the death of her husband, she
asserts, she has learned that the prop
erty is valued at only $4,000 and she
declares that she now has nothing and
has filed a contest to obtain what she
alleges Is rightfully hers.
It is expected that the case will
continue in the courts for a long time,
because of the contest filed by the
widow and from the evident intention
of the nephew to act as executor un-
less the court directs otherwise.

MAKES OFFER TO BUILD
FERRY BOATS FOR $500
C. H. Eubanks Suggests Method
for Wilmington Service

Two ferry boats for the price of one
was the interesting proposition made
by G. H. Eubanks of Wilmington to
the board OF public works yesterday.
Mr.. Eubanks told the board that he
had received a proposal from a ship
building contractor to construct two
ferry boats for $2500, the amount set
aside in the budget for the construction
of one ferry boat. The two boats
would be the same size as the one pro-
posed, thirty feet long, with seven-foot
beam and capacity of twenty-five
passengers.
The contractor who has agreed to
build these boats admits that he will
make no profit on them but is willing
to do the work to improve the ferry
service between Canal street and Ter
minaI Island. The two ferries would
give a thirty-minute service instead
Of the hour service proposed. The Will
mington chamber of commerce has
adopted a resolution declaring that the
proposed two-cent rate for the ferry is
not justified by the travel and setting
five cents as the fare between Will
mington and Terminal Island.

RAILROAD OFFICIALS SON
is PLACED ON PROBATION
Young Man Ordered to Behave
Himself for Five Years

Gerald f. Muir, son of the late John
A. Muir, a former railroad official
of this city, yesterday was placed on
five years probation by Judge Davis
of the criminal department Of the SUI
perior court, following legal proceed
ings of three years duration.
Muir, who is 25 years old, and the
heir to a part of his dead fathers prop
erty, his share being valued at about
SIC, 900, has issued many worthless
checks. He has been placed on pro-
baton before, but violated his parole.
Finally, at Judge Wilbur's instiga-
ton, the grand jury took cognizance
of the case and Muir was indicted for
forgery. He pleaded guilty and asked
for probation and his case has been
continued from time to time in the
last several weeks. In placing him
on parole Judge Davis directed that
his property, valued at about $4,000,
be given in trust to a trust company.
Muir, who has wife and child, will
be given attention by friends, who be-
lieve that he has been guilty of un-
lawful actions as the result of cir
cumstances and not inclination.
