SHIP CAULKER SAYS He
WAS Assault TED IN ROOM
Police Hunting for Man Who Is
Charged with Attacking
Craig EmpIoye

LONG BEACH, July 16.-Charles
Shelp, head caulker and clipper at the
Craig shipyard, has reported that he
was assaulted and cruelty beaten by a
young man whose name he does not
know, and who, it is alleged, committed
the assault last night in Shelp's board
ing house at 115 Golden avenue. Shelp
believes the alleged attack, which he
says was unproVoked, was made be-
cause the other man wanted to cripple
him so that he could not work in the
shtpyard. Shelp has continued to work
at the yard since the strike was inau-
gurated
The man with whom Shelp had his
difficulty last night secured a room at
115 Golden avenue a week ago. That
night Shelp did not come home, and the
man left. to return last night. After
the laudlady, Mrs. M. j. Marsh, had
gone down town last night Shelp al

LONG BEACH IS PLEASED
At BELT LINE PROSPECT
Pacific Electric Announces Own
ership of Rights of Way
Around Harbor

LONG BEACH, July dissatisfaction
is expressed here on all sides as re-
suit of the announcement made today
by officials of the Los Angeles Dock
and Terminal company that negotia-
tions had been concluded whereby the
Pacific Electric Railway company
comes into ownership and control Of
the Dock and Terminal company's s
rights of way for a belt line around
the Long Beach harbor and leading
to all slips where docks may be built.
BY the contract under which the
transfer was made the railway COM
pany agrees to build a track to any
point in the harbor where freight Is
offered in carload lots.
1t is believed that this deal gives the
local harbor switching facilities su-
perior to those of any other point on
the coast. The Salt Lake and the
Southern Pacific also reach the har-
Dor, as does the Santa Fe, through
traffic arrangement over a short haul
The Pacific Electric secures a belt
line about a mile long, providing for
from two to fourteen tracks on the
various thoroughfares of the yard. A
forty foot street, running along both
sides of each street, will be open to
the public. The total right of way
comprises about ten miles of track
age. A switching yard 200 feet wide
and 1000 feet long is included.
The Pacific Electric is expected to
interest itself in the development of
the harbor by attracting industries
here. The inference drawn from the
consummation of the deal is that the
railway company will make this their
terminal.
President c. j. Curtis of the Dock
and Terminal company stated today
that his company had not sold its in
terests in the harbor, but had sold the
right of way for a nominal sum, be-
lieving that greatly beneficial results
would accrue from the cooperation of
the Pacific Electric company.
At a meeting of the civic campaign
committee this morning at the cham
her of commerce rooms a resolution
was adopted to bring before the peo-
pie the question of the purchase by
the city of the entire Long Beach
harbor A committee, including ]. A.
Rominger, e. b. Norton, A. M. Good
hue. w. II. Wallace and c. j. Walker,
was appointed to investigate the in
come derived from other harbors. This
stupendous project has never been con-
sidered heretofore, and the way In
which it wifi appeal to the public is
uncertain.

ANOTHER BLOCK TO BE
BUILT AT LONG BEACH
Odd Fellows Sell Site in Second
Street

LONG BEACH, July 16.-The erec-
ton of another big block on Second
street is now in prospect, the builder
being a brother of ]. P. Curtis, a local
capitalist. The site for the proposed
structure is on the south side of East
Second street, between Locust and
American avenues. A small frame
building will be removed to make room
for the structure, which is planned to
be several stories in height.
Another large sized building may be
erected on East First street as the re-
suit of a deal closed yesterday when
the I. o. o. f. Building association
sold for $500 the east fifty feet of
lots 2, 4, and in block ia, site
whereon the association originally
planned to build a lodge hall. Another
site may be secured and a building
erected.
DR.. Horance Enos is to build a two
story residence at 2027 Park boulevard.
The home will cost $500 and the con-
tract has been awarded. Another east
side home will be that built at 2199
East Ocean avenue for A. E. Cole at
a cost of $2500.
NJ. Elijah has awarded contract for
a two-story. nine-room residence to
be built at 919 Atlantic avenue. 1t
will cost $4500
The houses, barns and other build
ings on the polytechnic school site at
Sixteenth street and Atlantic avenue
are being removed. Plans for the
school are almost completed. The
board of education has approved the
ground plans but are not yet agreed
as to whether the exterior shall be of
mission or classical design.

WILSON SAYS PLENTY
OF CALIFORNIA LAND

r. Lee Wilson, one of the best known
of Long Beach realty dealers and con-
sidered by many as being an authority
on Southern California farm lands and
acreage, is looking forward to an active
9eason in this line of business. Mr..
Wilson recently has opened several
ftracts and in a short time disposed of
800 acres which he purchased outright.
although it is not generally known,
the fact remains that there Is much
first-class land in this state which can
be purchased for $5 an acre and up,
with plenty of water" Mr. Wilson has
recently returned from San Francisco
and Sacramento, where he succeeded
in listing 800, 900 acres of Southern Cali
fornia land. Wilson probably is better
posted than any other man regarding
Antelope valley lands.

HUTTON AND SHlPPEY
CLOSE MANY DEALS

Don't you think for one minute,
declared Charles N. Hutton of the Long
Beach firm of Hutton & Shippey,
that business is dull in Long Beach.
You have to go after it, all right, but
it's here, nevertheless, and we have
no cause to complain over the present
business and look for substantial in
crease before October
Mr.. Shippey also believes that Long
Beach realty values are bound to in
crease, as a large percentage of the
easterners who are constantly coming
to California settle at the Queen of the
Beaches. Although many do not buy
at first sight they eventually invest in
Long Beach property after looking
into the situation.
Hutton & Shippey report the sale of
a lot east of the park Friday for
$4,000, and another deal was closed Sat
urday morning for $3.50.

FIRST NATIONAL
SHOWS INCREASE
Advance of Long Beach Indicated
by Marvellous Growth
of Banks

Identified with the banking interests
of the cities and towns of Southern
California are many able financiers of
long experience and established reputa-
tion for integrity, capacity of manage
ment and prominence in leadership for
the substantial advancement of the cit
les in which their various institutions
are located.
The bankers are bulwarks of safety
and financial support to every legiti-
mate enterprise whose directories and
officers have devoted their best thought
for the general good of solid develop
ment enterprises, for the accommoda-
tion of merchants and for the expan-
sion of industrial institutions.
These comments apply with especial
force to the career of the First Ma
tional bank of Long Beach, the present
capitalization of which is $2O0,00O prof.
it's and surplus 100000.
This bank has contributed much to-
ward the substantial development of
one of the largest and most attractive
seacoast cities in Southern California.
1t has the largest paid up capital and
surplus of any commercial bank in
Long Beach; it occupies the most hand
somely and perfectly equipped quarters
of any financial institution in Southern
California, barring one or two in Los
Angeles.
The name First National is associ-
ated with the progressive element, the
new spirit of Long Beach.
The bank is experiencing very rapid
and substantial growth, and is in the
hands of highly progressive manage
ment.
While this bank makes no point of
the personal resources of those behind
it, yet as a matter of plain fact no bank
in Long Beach has associated with it
more men of great wealth and integ-
rity.
Its deposits, which are made up en-
tirely of individual accounts, have
more than doubled in the last two
years; the increase within the past
twelve months equaled 60 per cent. II.
T. Mckee is the president and R. d.
Juahim is the cashier.
