Municipal Affairs
FIGHT EXPECTED OVER
CHARTER AMENDMENTS
Opposition to Adoption OF Meas
ures Anticipated from
the Solid Three

A struggle is expected in the Guy
council this morning when the charter
amendments are presented 1Or du"P
ton The revision commission l"'
promised to have them ready tor az
ton by the council at its regular meet
ing today and while there Is no uoupI
the majority of the council Will ap-
prove them. there is also no doubt
that at least three members VIII OPP
pose them.
These three are Washburn, Stewart
and Gregory, who have come TO pe
called the "soliu three of the council.
They believe that sufficient conSldera-
ton has not becl given to the amend
mcnts and Washburn and Stewart eS-
pccially, believe the amendments
should not be submitted for two years.
1t would then be time, they argue, to
cover the necessary matters of the dls-
tributi of water and power, Wilch
is the principal reason for making the
amendments.
During the last few sessions Of the
council when the amendments nave
been under consideration, Washburn,
Stewart and Gregory have steadtastly
refused to vote for or against any pro-
posed change. Washburn stated that
he could not vote for the submission
of the amendmeAts in their present
form and that he would consider II ms
duty to work against some OF them at
the polls when they are submitted.
Stewards opinion of the amendments
was expressed when the one limiting
the height of buildings was under dis
cuSSion and one Of the councilmcn OBJ
ieCtcd that it had not been given suf-
fiCient consideration.
Il think this amendment has been
as intcligently considered as any of
thcm,' said Mr. Stewart.
But notwithstanding the position of
these three counclmen the other six
are in favor of them ana believe tho
day and night sessions of the council
for the last ten days, during which
the amendments have been taken up
one by one has been productive of in
tclliSent consideration and that the
amendments are necessary at this
time
If the amendments are published
Wednesday morning, the earliest date
on which the election can be held is
February 25, as it requires sixty days
between the first publication of the
amendments and the election. But this
will give plenty of time for action by
the legislature as n resolution can be
introduced into the state assembly the
day after the official canvass of the
vote by the council. 1t is expected
the legislature will be in session well
into March.

CHRIST MAS RUSH OVER;
NO CONGESTION At P. 0.

The Christmas rush at the poStottlce
is over. The great stacks of unemptled
sacks have vanished and nearly all the
presents from out-of-tOWn friends ana
of Los Angeles citizens have been sort
ed and delivered That there has been
no congestion is due to the efficient
force OF employees who have worked
night and day to ease the extra STRAIN.
All day yesterday the extra carriers
went the rounds with the package mail
The regular force will be able to take
care of the rest of the deliveries. Clerks
on the incoming trains are able to sort
all Los Angeles mail while the delivery
tables are kept clean with the speed
of the clerks in the local postoffice.
Although the amount of mail re-
ceived in Los Angeles this year is about
80 per cent greater than was the
amount last year, the superior faciil-
ties of the new postoffice enabled the
force to take care of the rush with dis
patch

were crowded yesterday morning. es-
pecially about noon, while line o1
considerable length was formed before
the general delivery windows on several
occasions.

The truck automobile is fast replac>
ing the truck horse all over the coun-
try and Is practically just invading the
west. according to Joseph Bennett q

ton and Detroit, who is registered at
the Lankershim hotel

the manufacture Of automobiles since
they first made their appearance on
the market and has but recently pin
ned his faith on the auto truck as the
substantial product of the future.
There was a time said Nh Ben
nett, "when only the idle rich bought
autos. and it has been but recently
that machines were purchased with
only an idea of giving pleasure to
those who could afford it, However
developments in tho last year have
demonstrated in various parts of the
country that the automobile truck is
not only an improvement on horses
for drawing loads, but an economy.
especially where business is done IN
bulk and there is need of saving time -

PHILIPPINE ISLANDS
PROSPER DURING 1910

WASHINGTON, Dec. 2G--In his re-
port for 1910 to the secretary of war
the chief of the bureau of insular af-
fairs gives Il summary of the amend
ments to the organic act, among which
is the provision that homestead filings
in the islands shall be increased from
39.5 to 1875 acres.
The report recommends regulations
governing the number of mining claims
that any person, corporation or asso-
citation may locate on the same vein
or lode. 1t also recommends rogula-
tions for granting licenses for eXpIora-
tion and mining for gold or minerals,
some Of which have been found i'm pay
ing quantities in the Philippine islands.
Continued success is reported of the
postal savings bank in the Philippines.
Intended primarily for the benefit of
the Filipinos. its depositOrs have in
creased to S547, as compared with 1927
June 80 1909
Railroad mileage in the islands has
made substantial growth. the total
mileage being G61 % miles and about
440 miles of line to be completed in
Luzon under contract with the Manila
Railroad company
The report indicates that from in
dustrial and commercial standpoints
the Philippines have made tremendous
strides
In both imports and exports the val
ues recorded far exceeded those of any
previous year. Imports amounted to
$37 ,067 $50 and We're $9,275,233 in excess
of those of 1909. while there was an i'll
crease of SS.S7O606 in the export total
Of S39. .SG4,169 for 1910. In both branches
Of the trade the United states was
credited with the larger part of these
increases, imports of American goods
more than doubling in value and OK
ports increasing more than so per cent.

BIDS TO BE ASKED FOR
ON MUNICIPAL FERRY
One Boat to Be Tried First as
an Experiment

The municipal ferry for Wilmington
San Pedro and Terminal Island has
got beyond the point of talk and the
board of public works will ask the
council Tuesday for authority to ad-
vertise for bids for one ferry boat and
landings.
One boat is to be tried at first as ar
experiment and if it proves successful
other boats will be added. The coun-
ell has appropriated sufficient money
in this years budget for the expert
mental stage of the ferry.
This municipal ferry is one of the
re-consoldation pledges and is evi-
dence of the city's good faith in max
ing it's promises. Another pledge, that
of dredging the inner harbor in front
of Wilmington, is being redeemed, fol
the board of public works has awarded
a contract for this dredging. Other
promises will be fulfilled just .as soon
as the harbor bonds can be sold.

ARTHUR LETTS HOST To
800 At XMAS DINNER
President of Y. NJ. C. A. Enter
tainS Young Men Who Are
Away from Home

Five hundred young men in Los An
geles who were away from their homes
and relatives on Christmas day were
guests OF Arthur Let's, president OF
the Y. NJ. G. A., at Il Christmas dinner
yesterday
one hundred and fifty persons We're
seated at each time and the dinner
hours lasted from early in the after
noon until early in the evening.
The Y. NJ. c. 4. orchestra, under the
direction of William Mead, and its mas
cot, Raymond Walsh, the 2-year-old
son of Mr.. and Mrs. c. +. Walsh OF
South Pasadena, played various selec-
tions for several hours, on platform
erected above the dining hail.
Raymond Walsh is the youngest
bandmaster in the world. He received
his first inspiration at a beach concert
and ever since has figured in all of the
Y. NJ. G. AS musical gatherings.
Following the dinner the youns men
attended u Bible service in an adjoin-
ing hall.
The Christmas dinner has become an
annual affair at the association build
ing and is given by Mr.. Let's in re-
membrancc of holiday earlier in his
business career when he was friend
less and alone in a big city.
The invited guests were obtained
through a careful canvass made by c.
F. Quillian, secretary of the associa-
ton. and others, among the business
houses and banks of the city, for
young men who were alone in the city
this Christmas. The majority of those
attending were not members of the
association and many We're not con-
nected with any church or denomina-
tiOn.
Thirty states and nineteen foreign
countries were represented, and one
man born at sea was present.
-. G. Luther, general secretary OF
the Y. NJ. c. A, was master of cere-
monies t1e said yesterday that Mr..
Let's dinner eclipsed that of last year
both in attendance and in the spirit of
the gathering. I'VE made special ef-
fort" said Mr.. Luther, ito invite boys
whom we knew to be friendlcss and
alone, practically, and whom the as
sociaton building would serve as
home on this da.-."
After the dinner the young men
gathered in the marble rotunda of the
building and whiled away hours at the
piano.
To add touch of home-like atmos-
phere to the dinner Mrs. Luther and
the wives of many of the Y. NJ. c. a.
officials sat at the tables with the
guests.
Prominent business men in the city,
with aprons strapped about their
waists, served the guests. The affair
was a pronounced success and will be
repeated next year.

/. A. CADETS ENROLMENT
NEARING THE 300 MARK

The Los Angeles cadets are well on
the way to the realization OF theH
hopes of 800 members and raising a
fund of $4,000 with which to erect an
armory and club house. The embryo
soldiers intend to make their company
the best in the country If nara WORK
and boosting will have any erect, ana
if present plans mature the!r hopes
soon will be realized.
The local organization has received
the hearty Endorsement of the G. a. r.,
the Sons of Veterans and the Daugh-
ters of Veterans, and II committee OF
Orominent citizens has been appointed
ia attend to the disbursement of the
fund. The members of the committee
are Motley II. Flint d. f. Luther ana
f. ]. Carlisle
done by the explosion was rushed at
the LlcWellyn plant yesterday. Work
men were on the ground before day
LIGHT, and by noon had replaced much
of the Splintered flooring of the gem
cral Offices on the first floor. II VIII
he several days before the flooring Of
the second and third stories. ON which
the ACCOUNTING and billing rooms were
located. can be replaced.
I'VE will get into shape as rapidly
as possible" said Secretary JOIN,
IIeWellyn. I'VE do not expect to lose
any business and We do not expect
to delay contracts already on hand.
Tomorrow morning we expect to open
IN with a full shop crew and fun
office force
Fearing further attempts to wreck
factories and foundries, the heads of
the police department have arranged
to give the Industrial districts III the
city added police protection, for time
at least
Captain Lehnhausen, in charge of
central station, said yesterday after
noon that he would make every effort
to keep the territory in which the
LIcWellyn iron works is located, wen
patroled. How many men can be de-
tailed for this duty will depend on how
many can be spared from the Other
beats.
"As usual" said Captain Lehnhau-
sen. 1--WE are again up against it for
enough men to use in such emergencies,
but everything in my power Will be
done to give the industrial section
proper protection. If I could reach
up in the clouds and pluck off a few
men every time 1 needed them things
would be much better in Los Angeles.
But unfortunately, such feat is out
of the ordinary if not quite impossible" !"
Whether it will be possible for the
nolce heads to give the Industrial
sections permanent added protection
could not be learned yesterday 1t was
stated, however that until the various
factories can hire additional private
Watchmen. which they are being urged
to do. that strict watchfulness will be
maintained by the police.
