present level, which is eighteen inches
below the track, in order that the view
of the race track may not be obStruct-
ed. Athletic grounds will occupy this
space which covers fifty-three acres.
Ten acres outside will he given over
to sites for the construction of build
ings.
Besides providing a public play
ground for children it is planned to
make the field a center for all athletic

Los ANGELES SHIPS DAILY
1900 TONS OF PACKAGES
Traffic Manager for JobberS Says
Shipments Aggregate
$240,0O0 a Day

Fred p. Gregson, traffic manager for
the Associated Jobbers, whose business
is to keep in close touch with the trade
conditions Of Los Angeles and South
ern California, estimates that more
than 1900 tons of package freight, all
in less than carload shipments, go out
of Los Angeles every day to the vast
territory tributary to this city.
This freight, it is stated, has an aver
age value of $3.50 a ton, which makes
the daily shipments of less than car
load sent out aggregate in value daily
S24O 900, all of the products produced
in Los Angeles and shipped by the
manufacturers and jobbers, inde-
pendent of the goods made and sold to
the consumers in Los Angeles.
There are about 1000 industrial in
stitutions in the city of Los Angeles
engaged in teh manufacture of goods
for the use and consumption of the
people, and every year the number OF
Industrial enterprises is increasing.
Individuals and companies with
capital to put into manufacturing
plants are given hearty encouragement
by the Merchants and Manufacturers
association, by the Chamber of Com
merce and by kindred organizations,
for it is realized that the more indus
trial plants that are established the
faster the city will grow in substantial
development.
1t is figured that the development Of
the cotton industry in the Imperial
valley, the enlargement and completion
of the harbor at San Pedro, together
with the abundant supply of water to
be provided by the building of the
Owens river aqueduct, will not only
result in the location of many cotton
