LOS ANGELES, Cal, Feb. 25.-To
speak of Los Angeles as an industrial
center seems a misnomer, yet there
are evidences about this residence
city which go to show that the talk of
an industrial center is no fiction of
| the real estate dealer-it Is becoming
an accomplished fact.

not unusual The iron works in
Los Angeles that the union labor Gle
ment tried so desperately TO put out
of business via the dynamite route, is
more flourishing than ever
The capitalists and businessmen in
Los Angeles are eviden tly far-seeing
enough to have already taken steps
for Industrial betterment Seeing the
woeful plight of San Francisco bless
ed with labor agitators and industrial
stagnation, these men successfully re-
sisted every attack of labor organism,
and then, stronger than ever, have of
sure Industrial contentment Fl
Especially was this knowledge
brought home in a recent visit paid
to new Industrial community-Tar-.
rance. Fifteen miles from Los Ange-
les there was a perfect boulevard as
good as any in the state, to the very
center of the new town. The district
comprises several hundred acres, and
already great shops and industries are

ready completed and producing equip
ment. ..-..., ...- =.

done so much as he has without max
ing enemies, but unquestionably he
has uncompromisingl for years
fought the battle for Los Angeles
good He is bitter fighter, he may
nave done many personal wrongs, but
he has made a wonderful fight for
the greater common good. He fought
to keep Los Angeles from those trou-
bles which have beset many an Amer
lean city. he led in the fight to keep
the wheels of industry maving, he kept
open the doors OF prosperity. When
Los Angeles was beset, he fought with
big mans fury, which accepts moth
ing but complete success.
He'll be remembered all right--if
it's only by the deepness of the scars
he left. And sometimes scars are the
best things to leave.

Solving Big Problems.
1t is amazing in the first place that
concerns so big as those now in Tar
rance, and those soon to be there. can
find the business that will warrant
such an OUTLAY of capital The rear
ranging of freight rates necessarily
gives these firms a wider field in
which to compete, the use of oil for
fuel solves one very important prob
lem. The greatest problem of all. that
of securing sufficient labor, and keep
ing it so contented that there may be
uninterrupted production. seems in a
fair way to be solved
Not that these managers of big bus
mess are putting full, reliance upon the
creation of industrial contentment to
prevent any unrest on the part of en-
ployes. Thousands of workingmen
have perfectly good position for an
other no better except in vogue
promise of betterment, simply because
of natural unrest, a dissatisfaction
with anything permanent - and bus
mess history contains many instances
of the unnecessary harm done through
professional agitators playing upon
this human quality There may yet
come a time in Los Angeles, in Tor
rance. when great strikes will take
place.
The manufacturers have provided
well in this matter, for any man who,
starts trouble can by law be ordered
off the company's properties, and to
get off he must go two miles, and
once off he finds himself in a waste

plants can do little harm here, for such
as can be done must take
place almost too far away from the

eye
These plants do not confine them

THE WILSON CABINET

President Wilson's cabinet makeup is even
more surprising than the tentative allotments of
portfolios made by several politicians who
thought they knew the Wisonian mind Very
obviously they did not.
Probably no cabinet for three decades has
caused so much surprise that with which Viii
son begins his critical administration. The sur
prise is that the president chose SO many advisers
who have figured SO little in public life And yet
this is no longer any argument against their cffi-
cheney. With the great growth of means of COM
nuncaton and transportation in the United
States, the farmer in California, the banker in
Michigan or the manufactures of Alabama has
practically as much opportunity to keep in touch
with important public affairs as has the CON
gresham, the lobbying attorney the office
holder in Washington.
One of the significant facts seen in Wilson's
selections is that he has kept away from the SEN
ate and house of representatives in picking the
men for his official family Now this is not at
all slap at the strong Wilson men in both
houses Those who have been. closest to the pres
ident-elect in the few weeks before he became
president realized that Wilson felt that he needed
every true Wilson Democrat on the floors of Con-
gress to aid him in carrying through his progress
sive policies. The president knows that there is
strong stand-pat element in his own party that
will probably rise up and howl when the radical
nature of some Of his policies is revealed And
he is going to need all his congressional strength
to secure some pet legislation.
To this realization is ascribed Wilson's refusal
to name Senator O'Gorman of New York or Con-
eressman a. Mitchell Palmer of Pennsylvania for
portfolios Though Palmer was an avowed can
didate for the attorney generalship, Wilson was
frank in saying that he needed the assistance of
Che brilliant young Pennsylvania in the lower
house, where the Democratic majority is so large
chat it is inclined to run away with itself
The senate Democratic majority is so slight
that the loss of one man, particularly such man
as O'Gorman, Gore of Oklahoma or Culberson of
Texas, would imperil the Wilson legislation.
Most of the men in the Wilson cabinet are
practically unknown in Hawaii The new secre
tary of the interior, Franklin K. Lane, is able
and progressive public official, who made fine
record with the interstate commerce commission.
The strength of the cabinet and its adaptability
have yet to be tested.

GETTING At The BLIND Pig

The Webb bill, forced to law over the presi-
dents veto, is not regarded by the prohibition
forces on the mainland as a measure of equal
strength with the Kenyon bill, to judge by main
land newspaper comment, but it is regarded on
all sides as distinct victory for the moral issues
involved. The Literary Digest thus summarizes
some newspaper discussion:
@Illicit liquor-selling in dry states is hard hit
by the passage of the Webb bill, which makes it
unlawful to ship, transport or receive intoxicat-
ing liquors for Illegal sale in states or ter
ritores that prohibit its sale 1t is regarded, to
use the words of the Nashville Banner, as the
seyerest blow ever dealt the liquor traffic. This
measure,' says the New York Times's Washing
ton correspondent, is the most far reaching piece
of antiliquor legislation ever put before Con-
gress." The anti-saloon forces are greatly en-
couraged by the fact that in the House, which is
supposed to voice the peoples will more than
any other body, the vote was 240 to Co. There
was no way Of telling exactly how the senate
stood, because the vote was viva voee, but the
New York World correspondent says that even
there only two or three negative voices were
heard THAT the people believe in the funda-
mental morality of the measure says the Rich
niond Times Dispatch, lis proved by the vote in
The House. According to newspaper accounts,
the liquor interests made determined fight
against the passage of the bill, and their lobby
lists were about as numerous in the galleries
when the votes were taken as the active agents of
the sWhite Rihboners' Senator Root, who was
the chief spokesman for the opposition in the
upper house, attacked the measure solely on the
grounds that it would probably be declared un-
constitutional by the supreme court. The Webb

YAMAMOTO

Yamamoto, the new premier of Japan, is a
wise and energetic statesman, thinks the Chris
tan Science Monitor. The Monitor comments
upon his appointment as follows: Americans
interest in the solution of Japans problem of
finding a man large enough to meet grave ma
tional issues and solve them is increased by news
of Count Yamamotos acceptance of the premier
ship and his choice of cabinet of men who are
inclined to accent constitutional rights This
able and battle-tested admiral and naval admin
istrator is graduate of the United States naval
academy at Annapolis, Nd, and since his gradu-
alton he has always kept in touch with American
thought and political changes. He comes from
the people of Japan, and has more democratic
instincts than many of the men who have been
influential up to a recent date but who now find
their own and their clans authority challenged
by people who are not only deeply stirred but
bold of speech Yamamoto is identified with an

Of patriotism is newer in point of time, but not
less glorious, than the army; but because it is
newer it is not hampered by caste distinctions

reconsideration of the present turmoil in ia
pan cannot proceed far without appreciation of
the dawn of a new era in journalism Organs Of
the old regime have been made to suffer at the
hands of irate citizens, and the penalties attach
ing to subserviency have been made apparent
On the other hand, independent criticism of men
and of parties never has flourished SO vigorously
and with so little regard for possible penal con-
sequences. Even though conservative reaction
were to follow after the recent unprecedented
outburst of popular independence, it is not prob
able that conditions of censorship ever again
will be as they were prior to recent epoch-mark-
ing events. Public sentiment and opinion long
suppressed having at last found vent, they will
net submit to a return to program of secrecy,
either in domestic affairs or in foreign policy.
Thus the outer world may be permitted to know
much more about japanese history than even
foreigners have been permitted to tell Of late
years For instance, the American reading pub
lie may ere long really know the facts about the
indignities said to have been experienced by
Korean Christians and American missionaries
at the hands of japanese court officials.

Now that the morning paper has brought up
the subject of circulation and advertising, it is
sufficient to state that only one paper in Homo
lulu has ever opened its books and subscription
lists to the public, and that paper is the Honolulu
Star-Bulletin. This paper is the only paper that
is quite willing to back up its statements with an
invitation to advertisers, patrons and the public
to inspect its books And this is the kind of fact
that speaks louder than mere claims.
