PROTEST CUTTING
OFF LIGHT AND AIR
Anti Tuberculosis Association
Asks the Mayor to Veto
the Ordinance

Mayor Mccarthy did not sign the or
didance increasing the building space
of inside lots to so per cent and de-
creasing the air and light space from
80 to 20 per cent yesterday, but that
he probably will do so was the intima-
tion given out.
strong protest against the change
was made yesterday to the mayor
with a request that he veto the ordi-
nance. The anti-tuberculosis associa-
tion. of which former School Director
Thomas Z. Hayden is president, called
McCa-thy's attention to the fact that
the light and air space in the dwellings
of the people would be decreased by
the operation of the bill
The protestants said:
The proposed amendment makes
directly for the congestion of pop
ulatton and the creation of slums.
The problem confronting other
large cities is that of reducing
congestion and removing the plague
spots that have come into exist
ence as result of the lack OF
proper restriction in the erection
of buildings for dwelling purposes.
San Francisco is at present for
tunately situated in its compare
tive freedom from this problem.
To ignore the experience of other
cities and to lay the foundation
for the conditions which other
cities now find so dangerous to
health and so difficult and eNpen-
sive to remedy would be a great
error, rejecting seriously upon the
foresight and disinterestedness of
those responsible for the conduct
of public affairs and justifying
doubt as to their concern for the
welfare of the working class, the
members of which are chiefly af-
fected by the proposed amendment.

Declines to Set Value

City Attorney Long replied yesterday
TO Mayor McCarthy's request that he
advise as to the value of the Lake
Eleanor and Cherry creek property Of
fered to the city for S1.000,000. and also
as to the titles of the holdings.
Long stated that the cost price of a
water utility or of one of its factors
was hardly question of law and de-
clined to appraise the offerings. He
stated however, that the Lake Eleanor
lands, offered with attendant water
privileges for 100000, were assessed
for $4,000.
Long also said that the properties
were held in the name of the Sierra
ditch company, although offered by the
Tuolumne water company, but that At
torney Jesse Lilienthal for the propo-
nents gave the assurance that all mat
ters of title would be easily adjusted
upon an agreement as to purchase
price.

CITY ATTACHES WARRANT

For the first time IN history the pay
ment of a mans demand on the city
treasury was refused yesterday upon
the ground that he owed the city a
debt. Tax Collector Bush notified the
auditor that the printing firm of E. c.
Hughes owed delinquent taxes of 1913
and requested Boyle to hold up the

will have to pay up before getting
his own demand through.

With a surplus Of rough rice estima-
ted AZ !, 500, 600 sacks on the hands Of
the growers, and with mills closing
down and refusing 10 buy, rice planters
are greatly worried over the situation

planter and miller exists, says st. Louis
Interstate Grocer.
II Is said that. Ia spite Of the cheap
ness and general good qualities Of rice
as 4 food, the demand is not a. good
As i should be- This has been ex-
planned b. the fact that the average
consumer ie not thoroughly acquainted
with the merits Of this gain and the
retailers are not familiar enough with
them 20 enable them 70 talk rice 70
their customers
The question that Is worrying the
rice grower 81 the South IS how 70 dis
pose ~ this BIG surplus. Among the
ways suggested Is that Of feeding the
low grade rice 70 stock. Another Is to
conduct y campaign 81 education 70 the
retail merchants, telling them o. the
profits - be made BY pushing rice and
giving them talking points 10 that they
can interest their customers.
The value 81 this latter suggestion
lies IA the fact that 50 many customers
appeal 10 the grocer 90 tell them what
20 get for q change II Is known that
rice can Be served IN rs many. II not
