BRANCH HOSPITALS BACKED BY
PETER REINBERG

l.
Location of branch hospitals in
remote and thickly-settled sections of
the city was advocated by Peter Rein
berg, Democratic, nominee for presi-
dent and member of the County
Board, at meetings he addressed last
evening. At a comparatively trifing
cost, he said, three such institutions
could be established. In addition,
Mr.. ReinbeTg urged the establishment
of a relief station near the new NUM-
cipal pier on the lake front. There
convalescing patients could be
brought and day-camp boat, similar
to the one in use in New York, could
operate during the summer.

the poor of Cook county" said Mr..
Reinberg, I'VE should at once serious

NEW YORK HAVEN
FOR ANARCHISTS
(BY CARLTON TEN EYCK)
(Writted for the United Prcss)


Now York, May 1S.-"Never in their
worst days were the blackest centers
of Russia, and other European coun-
tries where anarchy is fostered, any
worse than a certain section of New
York in regard to breeding spots for
agitation against established govern
mcnt."
That statement made a few days
ago ~ sne of the most pc iacnt Of
New York's police officials and a
man who has studied anarchy and
anarchists for thirty years along with
his study of crime. aptly tells the
situation in this metropolitan center

today than they have ever had be
fore. And. strange to say, the man
who is insisting on giving the "publi2
forum speakers" and agitators the
looSest sort of 'free speech" rein is
no other official than Mayor Mitchell,
who recently narrowly escaped assas-
sination at the hands of poor man
iacal old crank whose mind no doubt
had become violently twisted through
hearing day after day everything from
God to government denounced by an
archists in the public squares.
OF course, some of these public
forum speakers represent honest, God
fearing reasonable organizations. such
as union labor. etc, which are pro
testing reasonably against certain con
ditions that even the most conserva-
tive. tory-minded individuals admit
are all wrong. But the ajority of
these speakers are preaching anarchy
as black and destructive as can be
heard anywhere.
At Union Square, at the foot of
Benjamin Franklin's statue in Park
Row, in Rutgers Square, and othe,
public rostrums these speakers eXhort

Socialist speaker and an anarchist O
an I. w. w. exhorter begin to talk
at the same time within few fee

the speakers make it fun for the
crowds by heaping abuse on each 9th

The occupation of Vera Cruz and
the Trinidad, Colo, coal strike II

Sirs-The city of San Francisco lies be-
meath the guns of the Preside forts, as
you doubtless know at this time. The
mayor and his advisers have surrendered
in order to save property and life. To
you we desire to announce that his ac-
ceptance of our demands will assure com
plete protection to the citizens unless &C
ton on your part compels our further
course.
Should you accept the pacific course
no material harm will come to the city,
and it's CONQUEST will be bloodless, but
upon the first movement of your vessels
to leave their mooringS we shall open fire
upon the city. We desire further to in
form you that the same stratagem used
by us last night was operative in Los An
gees, San Diego, San Jose, Santa Cruz.
Fresno, Monterey, Santa Barbara and the
smaller cities in the region involved. You
can therefore perceive the futilty of any
minor resistance on your part, which
would almost inevitably result only in the
destruction of the city and the needless
sacrifice Of your vessels and men.

the plan to organize mammoth

Committees were named to draw
up proper resolutions, and to act in
conjunction with the water users as
sociation directorate in forwarding
the plan.
Tine directors appreciate the fact
that drainage is one of the most i'm
portant problems now facing the
ranchmen of the valley.
