Following the reading of the minutes

CussiOn arose over the objection OF
commissioner James Clifford to the ac-
ton taken in creating the office Of

the purchasing agent he thought the
expense unnecessary, as the auditor had
always invited bids for supplies and
the award had been made by the COM

assertion that the auditor had made the
purchases and then sumbitued the bills
for approval Of the commission. For
this reason, he stated, he had favored
the appointment of purchasing agent

charge was made that it was inspired
by the private title companies as a
means of discrediting Tcrrens title
certificates. Assemblyman Encell eX-
planned that he had put in the bill
by request. He stated that he was
satisfied that it would work an in
justice and hence the bill would be
permitted to die in committee
Proponents of the Torrens law have
insisted that the Torrens certificates
be given preference in all loans on
real estate. They point to the fact
that the law was overwhelmingly rat
flied by the people at the last elec.
ton, and that it is the duty of the
Legislature to do everything possible
to strengthen the Torrens law and
popuarize the Torrens certificate.
Senator Browns bill does not give
the Torrens certificate preference in
real estate loans, but it does specifi
cally recognize such certificate as COM
plete proof of ownership. The par
ticular provision reads:
''ln making a loan on the security
of real estate, any bank may reply,
without further search, upon the evi
dence of title furnished by a certifi-
cate of title committee known as Tor
renS title certificate"
New York not long since appropri-
ated 100000 to create state title
department which would provide the
property owners with titles at a nom
inal cost and put "a stop to the eXces-
sive charges of the private title COM
panies. The suggestion has been made
that California should adopt a SINH
lar policy and set aside fund with
which to facilitate putting all Cali
fornia lands, both city and county, un-
der the Torrens land act. Fees suf-
ficient to make the department self
sustaining could be charged, and the
people would thus have, at a minimum
of expense, a simple and inexpensive
system Of recording titles to property
Real estate transactions would be
greatly stimulated, it is believed, il
there were established some better
means of transferring titles to land
under tho To~rens system.
