CALIFORNIA COUNTY
LIBRARIANS CONFERENCE

County librarians and library work
ers interested in county free library
development from all over Californi;
are to meet in Sacramento at tn;
State Library on December 9th, anC
continue in conference the rest of that
week.
/ In this work of bringing book serv'
! ice to everybody, California. is lcc ding
the wholN United States. Other states
have county free libraries in some
counties, but in no state except Cali
fornia is there such close cooperation
or such complete supplemental service
as the California State Library gives
which lends free to any county free
library, even paying transportation
beth ways. And no other state is
making such state wide effort as
California, to have every county
equipped with free library for the
use of I'll the people.
Although the county free library
plan has been in operation in Cali
fornia olly a few years, it is fast
gaining ground. Twenty six counties
have already adopted it, and there is
not a county in the state that has not
set on foot some agitation for county
free library, as the people arc recog
nlzlng it as most practical and ef =
ficient and at the same time a most
economical system. The counties
which have established a county free
library and from most of which there
Will be one or more persons attending
the conference are Alameda, Butte,
Contra Costa, Fresno, Glenn, Hum
Eoldt, Imperial, Inyo, Kern, Kings, Los
Angeles, MADEIRA, Mcrced, Monterey,
Riverside, Sacramento, San Bernardo
no, San Diego, San Joaquin, San Ma
teo, Santa Barbara, Santa Clara, So
l2no, StaniSlaus, Tulare and Yolo.
A very interesting program is being
planned to include all the topics which
will bear most upon the vital point
in the plan of the organization and
the keynote to all county free library
work-library service for everyone.

er Mr.. Bryan nor Counsellor Lansing
of the department has yet made al
answer. In fact, it was stated thai
/ the department did not desire to dis
cuss this question at all at the pres.
ent time
So far as can be gathered from Of
ficialS, the issue raised by Great Brit
ain is parallel in its general aspects
with that raised by Japan in the Cali
fornia alien land law case. The gen
eral charge in both the English and
japanese cases, it is understood by Of
ficials, will be that there is viola
ton of treaty agreements.
The charge by Japan is that the
United States in the California case
has violated the treaty of 1911 and
it is hinted that Great Britain in the
Arizona case maintains that the law
would violate the equality of treat
ment for British and American sub
iects mutually in their respective
countries, which is guaranteed by all
the English American treaties of com
nerce and amity.
In connection with this action of
Great Britain, it is said today that
il probably explains a call yesterday
of the Japanese ambassador at the
state department, the purpose of which
was not revealed by Secretary of State
Bryan. 1t is known, nevertheless, thai
when the California alien land law
was unded discussion Arizona was
considering legislation and that such
was called to the attention
of tie state department. by the Jag@
nese foreign ofiice.
The legislation at That ttmc seemed
10 Japan tc be directed mere @GaH.:
japan thar against any other natl27
Imperial Valley press., 1914-12-04

and Japan's complaint was on that
line.
Secretary of State Bryan would not
discuss any of the phases of the Jap
anese and English diplomatic sugges-
tions, but it was stated that the ques
tion raised by Great Britain was not
necessarily serious" 1t has not yet
reached the solicitor Of the state de-
partment, Cone johnson, but he will
probably have it tomorrow morning
for consideration and reply.

CHAMPIONSHIP
TEAMS COMPARED
Athletics Are Older and Have Had
More Baseball Experience Than
the Boston Braves.

NEW YORK, Oct. 3. When the
Philadelphia Athletics and the Boston
Braves 20 into action in the 23d Sc
RIGS for the world S championship base
ball honors the diamond campaign will
be fought out by teams which repre-
sent the old and the new in the ma
tional sport. Although the average of
the leading players of the two com
binations is not widely separated the
Athletics S machine is so famous and
its success so striking that it appears
old by comparison with the squad that
George Stallings whipped in shape in
midsummer and thus won q pennant
for Boston. Taking twenty odd players
of the two teams as basis it will be
found that the average age of the
Athletics is % Ia years and the
Braves ~ 81 years. .s -
While less than two years in average
age separates the teams the ex-
tremes are more marked in the Ath-
letics than the Braves. Plank, Bender,
Coombs, Gliding, Lapp and Thomas are
all past 30, but the majority of those
who will figure in the daily lineup are
several years under this age. The three
youngest players in the squad are the
pitchers, Bush, Pennock and Wyekoff
The American league representatives
have the advantage in years of base
ball experience for the Philadelphia
club PLAYERS average fully a year more
in time spent upon the professional
than the Boston players. The Braves
