WATER CONSUMERS
CHARGED LICENSE
SEWARD HAS BIG
PROBLEM TO SOLVE
D. Mckay, Who Operates Small Sys-
tenn in East San Pedro, Adds
Small Amount to
Bills
Especial to The Herald.l

SAN PEDRO, Feb. 5.-E. D. Seward,
deputy tax and license collector, has
been busy explaining to fishermen at
East San Pedro how he is not to blame
for an increase in their water rates.
Seward discovered a few days ago
that D. Mckay, who owns the water
system at East San Pedro, had not
been paying a license. The minimum
license for water companies is $25 per
month which, in McKay's case, is eX-
orbitant. as he has few customers. He
buvs his water from the Seaside Water
company and is compelled under the
ordinance to pay the same license as
does the San Pedro Water company
and the Seaside company.
But the ingenious Mckay saw way
out of the difficulty. He made out his
water bills for the usual amounts and
to each one he added an item OF 70
cents "for license" Hence the rush
of fishermen to the office of the tax
collector to learn why they should pe
charged a license of 25 cents per month
for drinking water and bathing.
There is a legal doubt as to whether
or not Mckay is bound by the water
rates fixed by the city council OF Long
Beach when that city had jurisdiction
over the territory. There is little
doubt. however, that he has no au-
thority to license his customers to
drink and bathe, although Mr. Seward
has had hard time explaining the
situation to some of the foreign fish
ermen.
The question has been taken up with
the city attorney and it is probable
that new ordinance will be recon-
mended reducing the license for small
water dealers. At present all com
panies doing less than $25OO per month
are taxed the same.

ROAD WORK PRELIMINARY
MUST BE DONE OVER AGAIN
Error In Oxnard Petition Discovered,
and Improvement Is De-
layed

OXNARD, Feb. 5.-All of the work in
preparing for the new road to the east
of Oxnard will have to be done over.
This Is the word that has been received
in Oxnard from the county seat this
week. 1t seems that an error was
made at the court house that will ne
cessitate the securing of new petit
tion, the appointment of road viewers,
etc.
This work has been taken up by j.
A. Driffill, president of the local board
of trade, and he has looked after the
promotion of the road in order that 1T
may come before the board this week
and viewers may be appointed.
The people of Oxnard have long wait
ed the building of this road, and are
somewhat disappointed that there
should have been caused a delay in the
necessary legal proceedings to secure
it. Most of the work that has been
done to secure it has been voluntary
on the part of very few citizens of
this town. They propose to stay with
il, however, until the job is put through
and the road a reality.

GIRLS FRENZIED FINANCE
CAREER COMES TO END
Pasadena Children, Who Incur Bills
and Settle with Money Taken
from Home, Run Away

PASADENA. Feb. 5.-The two Har-
greaves children, whose erratic f1nan-
cial transactions resulted in their run
ming away, have been returned to the
home of their parents, Mr.. and Mrs.
Thomas Hargreaves, 1912 Summit ave-
nue.. Emma is II years old and Lucille
IA, and they have been in the habit of
running bills at stores in the neigh
borhood and then maintaining credit
by taking money at home to settle. In
every other respect the conduct of the
children has been exemplary. They
ran away, however, Thursday when
they knew that their frenzied finan-
ciering was about to be exposed. At
the home of A. B. Hollinger, Altadena,
they applied for work. They were
made at home for the night and to-
day brought back here.
Mr.. Hargreaves is not inclined so
much to reproach the children as the
storekeepers who allowed them credit
without his permission.

CANADA TO BUILD NAVY
GOVERNMENT TRIUMPHS OVER OP.
POSITION.
Contracts for Four Cruisers and Six
Tor pedo Scat Destroyers
Will Be Let.

Ottawa, Ont.-The government tri,
umpnvu over the opposition in the house
of commons on the naval policy and
overwhelmingly defeated resolutions de-
claring there should be an appeal to the
people before the creation of the Cana
dian navy, which means contracts for
the construction OF four truiSers of the
improved Bristol class and six torpedo
boat dostroycrs OF the improved river
class. They are all to be built in Can
ada, and as there are no yards at pres
ent in the dominion capable Of doing the
work, negotiations are i'll progress with
several firms of British shlpbluIedrs for
the establishment of such yards.
The Canadian government will aid in
this establishment of the new shipbuild-
ing industry in two ways. 1t is prepar-
ing to allow the British firm which gets
the contract for the construction OF the
first ten vessels a considerably higher
price than is paid in British yards. 1t
will also subsidize the plant and dock
under a statute providing aid for dry
docks.
