L, A. COUNTY LEADS STATE
IN NUMBER OF AUTO

in nv "DEn Vt ~ " y
LOS ANGELES, Feb. g. Some
highly interesting figures are now be-
ing taken from the registration lists
for 1915. The latest count shows that
Los Angeles county has tagged approx
imately 10000 motor cars so far this
year.
The Importance of Los Angeles
county registration in relation to the
remainder of the state is shown in
some comparative figures. The entire
northern portion of the state so far has
registered 4S,575 autos at Sacrament
to, or only S755 more than from this
county alone.
The Southern California registration
figures to date are 62,491. So Los An
geles county has furnished all but 3d.
491 of this total
The grand total for the state is ILL.,
066, which gives Los Angeles county
more than one-third of the cars so far
registered.

BIG TENTS TO HOUSE
ORANGE SHOW NOW UP

SAN BERNARDINO, Feb. 9.-The
three great tents that are to house the
Fifth National Orange show, February
1924, are now up, and hundreds of
men are at work day and night on the
construction of booths and other neces-
sary equipment.
The exhibits of oranges, lemons and
other citrus fruits are perishable, and
their installation is therefore delayed
until the last possible moment, but the
hundreds of displays have all been
planned in minute detail, and their con
struction will be rushed.
Practically every citrus fruit district
in California has secured space and
will be represented in the array of the
states choicest fruits, in the effort to
impress the thousands of Fasteners,
and even Californians who are not
thoroughly posted on the magnitude of
the citrus industry, with the beauties
and Importance of the golden harvest.
Every feature of the citrus fruit in
dustry has been provided for in the ex-
position.
An orange orchard, that is to form
the natural scenery of the exposition,
is now being transplanted. The streets
of San Bernardino have been strung
with a canopy of electric lights, and
the preparations for the exposition
that have been under way for six
months are reaching tangible form.

100000 MOTOR ORDER
PROMISED u. S. BY ALLIES

CHICAGO, Feb. g. Further evi
dence of increasing business in the
United States as result of the Euro
pean war is contained in dispatches
from Detroit, which quoted Capt. w
r. Eaton of the British army as
authority for the statement that new
order for 5000 motor trucks for Rus
STA, France and England will soon be
placed in the United States. The
value of the order is estimated at
$6,OOO,OOO.
According to Captain Eaton, within
thirty to sixty days vast orders for
equipment for 100000 more English
100000 more Russian and 100000
more French soldiers will come to this
country.
Aside from the warning countries,
Sweden promises to enter the market
for American goods on a scale never
before equaled.
Requirements of the country cover
a wide variety of products. Raw
goods for textiles are among goods
wanted, as well as motor vehicles, oils,
leather goods, naval stores, paints,
drugs, essential oils, cotton grain,
wool, groceries, copper, lead, hickory,
ash and tobacco.

ALIEN TEACHER BAN
CAUSES STIR IN COUNTY

LOS ANGELES, Feb. 9.-Notice re-
ceived by State Superintendent of
Schools Hyatt from the attorney gen
eral of the state, declaring that teach
ers of foreign birth who are not nat
uralized citizens cannot teach in the
schools of California, created intense
interest in local school circles.
1t was stated from the superinten-
dents office that there are numerous
men and women teaching in the city
schools who are not naturalized citi-
Zens
1t was also stated that teachers of
foreign birth are employed in the
county schools.
men and women are in danger of hav-
ing their positions and salaries for
feited by the state.
No official notice, however, has yet
been received here from Superinten-
dent Hyatt regarding the decision of
Attorney General Webb and no action
in the matter will be taken by local
school authorities until such notice is
received.
According to a report from Sacra-
mento many of the $4,000 teachers in
the state are not naturalized citizens,
and all will be affected by Superinten-
dent Hyatt's action.
The question of whether teachers
not naturalized could teach in Cali
fornia was brought up for settlement
to the state superintendent by the
Bakersfield school authorities.

RECORD CROP OF LEMONS
FOR SEASON IS PREDICTED
COMING CROP WILL BE LARGER
THAN PREVIOUS SEASON
Expect Shipment of One Thousand
: More Cars of Fruit This Year Than
Is UsuaI-No Danger of Un-
favorable Weather

SAN DIMAS, Feb. 9-General crop
conditions through the state indicate
that the lemon growers are facing the
greatest season in the history of this
branch of citrus culture in the state.
Figures show that with continuation
of present favorable conditions there
will be at least 1000 more cars of lem
ons shipped from California this year
than in any past year. 1t should also
be noted that there is no practical dan
ger of unfavorable weather from now
on.
The various groves are yielding
heavily, and with reasonable prices
the returns to the growers will be
very satisfactory on account of the
large crop.
In the past the fall market has gen.
orally been much above the average
for the year. The fall market this year
was Unexpectedly low, and will proba-
bly, not be above the average for the
entire season. Unsettled conditions in
the lemon market seemed to be due in
large part to the war in Europe, the
possibility of not being able to sell a
normal quantity of lemons in the Ital-
ian market, and the probability of
heavy importations into this country.
The January prices are above the av-
erage for a normal year. Predictions
for the season are premature, on &C
count of the fact that a great portion
of the fruit will be sold after March l..
A forward step is favoring the estab-
lishment of a standard providing that
no fruit of inferior quality, either in
ripeness or frost injury, should be
marketed. Action of this kind will be
taken by the federal government anu
by the state government, the same as
has already been done on the sale and
shipment of seed and various other
commodities of the country.
The standing of the California or
anges in the market, the prices re-
ceived for them and the demand which
will care for the increased crop de-
pend upon the satisfaction of the con-
sumner with the fruit which he buys.

TROOPS WILL STAY
AT MEXICAN BORDER

DOUGLAS, Ariz., Feb. 9.-United
States army officers predict an unlim-
tied stay of the American troops along
the Sonora-Arizona border, following
Governor Maytorenas violation of the
peace agreement, which during the
three weeks it lasted insured neutral
ity in the Mexican town of Naco and
no further fighting along the border.
Both factions of MeXicans now con-
slider that the peace pact no longer ex-
lists. which again throws Aqua Prieta
across the line from Douglas, open to
attack from the Maytorena faction now
closing in from the south. General
Gales force of Carranzistas, in Aqua
Prieta, is rapidly being mounted with
horses purchased in the open market
for the announced campaign against
Maytorena.

called upon to supply much of the ma
terials needed by Europe in the recon
struction which is bound to follow the
present war.
European manufacturers have never
been able to compete with America in
price-and this price difference will be
even greater after the war than be-
fore, because of the scarcity of labor.
The prejudice against American goods
is fast disappearing, in spite of the or
gained efforts of the European manu-
facturers to discredit the quality of
the American product and keep it out
of their markets.
That American-made machinery Of
all kinds will play an important part
in this establishment cannot be
doubted by anyone who has visited
Europe and who understands condi-
tons there.
Cost of War
The cost of the war to date is esti-
mated by wet Guyot, the eminent
French economist, at an average OF
$4O,000,000 a day for 1873 days, or more
than $7,0OO,000,000 for six months.
Official reports of Mr.. Lloyd George,
chancellor of the exchequer of Eng
land; of M. Ribot, minister of finance
for France; of the Imperial Bank Of
Russia, and the German government s
own reports give official figures of &C
tual money spent only up to Decem,
Der l.
France spent 1855, 100000 in the first
four months (more than 100000 a
day.; Germany issued one loan of
$845, 100000 and treasury bills for
1915, 100000 more, making $1,175,0O0,
900 during the first five months; she
therefore spent nearly $S,000,000 day.
1t will be seen from this that modern
war is not merely question of men,
it is question of war chest.
Putting together these figures, Off
cial and unofficial, it is certain that to
date the war bills actually paid have
averaged at least $1,060,000,000 a
month. And they are mounting up at
the rate of $48,OOO,OOO a day, approx
mately, or 100000 an hour, day and
night, Sundays and holidays.

STATE RULES AVALON
BOATS, v. S. DECIDES

WASHINGTON, Feb. 9.-The Will
mington Transportation company of
Los Angeles, which operates boats
between San Pedro and Avalon, Gaia
lima Island, must submit to regulation
by the railroad commission of Cali
fornia, the supreme court decided
The company claimed that as it's boats
traversed the high seas they we're in
foreign commerce and not subject to
state regulations.
Justice Hughes in delivering the
opinion of the court, said that the
boats of the company made no pass
age through territory of another state
the jurisdiction of no other sover-
eighty was encountered and there was
no reason why the state should not
regulate the matter of transportation
which seemed purely within the scope
of the local authorities The decision
of the supreme court of California is
affirmed.

RESERVE BANK FUND OF
$25,OOO,OOO IS PLANNLD
EXTEND CLEARINGHOUSE OPERA.
TONS BY IL RESERVE BANKS
Federal Reserve Board Creates Cen.
trial Fund to Protect Regional Banks
Actual Development of Sys-
tenn Will Be Gradual

WASHINGTON, Feb. g. Confer.
ences between members of the Fed
eral Reserve board and officers of sew
eral of the reserve banks have devel-
oped definite plans for the extension
of clearinghouse operations by the
twelve regional reserve banks
One feature of the plan provides for
the creation of a central fund of posi-
bly, $25,OOO,OOO to be held in Washing
ton to the credit of the reserve banks
tons between them.
Actual development of the clearing
system through the reserve banks will
be gradual but members of the reserve
board believe these banks will in time
take the place contemplated in the re-
serve act and do practically all the
clearing for member banks.
According to information, the CEN
trail fund in Washington is to be gold
fund made UP Of deposits from each of
the twelve reserve banks. 1t was un-
derstood that the secretary of the
treasury might place some of the gov
eminent money now on deposit with
national banks in the fund to the
credit of the Federal Reserve banks.
Such action would allow reserve banks
to make smaller deposits in the central
fund from their own resources.
Balances probably will be adjusted
only once week or once month, and
will be largely matters of bookkeep-
ing.
Active steps have been taken by
treasury officials. to compel directors
of at least six national banks in New
York city personally to make good
losses sustained by their institutions
through what the government holds
were investments not authorized by
law. Officials declined to give the
names of the banks, but it was said
that none of them was in the slightest
danger and that the total amount in
volved was a few million dollars.
The investments took the form, it is
said, of underwriting operations, and
occurred several years ago. Many of
the directors of the banks at the time
are said not now to be connected with
those institutions, but restitution has
been demanded, nevertheless.
Some of the directors concerned are
said already to have agreed to make
good, but negotiations with others are
still in progress.
Action was taken by the department
at this time, it was understood, be-
cause the statute of limitations might
operate to prevent stockholders of the
banks in question from receiving the
amounts lost through legal proceed
ingS.

PROSPERITY Will FOLLOW
CLOSE OF EUROPEAN WAR
DEMAND Will BE ENORMOUS AND THE UNITED STATES Will
Be CALLED upon TO SUPPLY EUROPEAN COUNTRIES
Scarcity of Labor Will Cause High Prices all Kinds of Goods But Europe
Must Have Material for Rebuilding Her Commerce and Industries
Eminent Frenchman Estimates Daily War Cost at $4OOOOOOO

An unprecedented wave of prosper
ity, both in Europe and in America,
is bound to follow the present Euro
pean war.
If the war is concluded within eight
cen months, and general governmental
conditions in each country are not ma
terially altered, France, Germany, Rus
STA and England will all experience a
revival such as occurred following the
Franco-Prussian war and lasted until
two years ago, when the present war
clouds began to gather.
The wealth and prosperity of Euro
peans, particularly Germans, French
and English, rests in their people, and
not in their natural resources. These
people are thrifty. They strive long
with great perseverance and patience
and achieve whatever they want or
need, and as soon as there is prospect
of period of peace they will start in
to recoup their lost fortunes with a
zeal and logged perseverance,
backed by science and intelligence,
that will cause history to repeat itself.
While there has been and still will
be enormous loss of life, the male pop
and take care of the regular channels
of industry and trade.
Their loss, among laboring men, is
one of the factors, however, which will
bring prosperity to America. The war
has completely exhausted the supply
of horses, wagons, and many kinds of
manufactured articles. Upon resump-
ton of peace there will be an immedi-
ate demand for needed material to as
sist in rebuilding the commerce and in
dustry Of Europe. The scarcity OF
labor will cause high prices in all
classes of manufactured goods, so high
in fact that Europe cannot compete
with America in such commodities as
motor cars, wagons, farm machinery
and steel products for many years to
come, even if any of them maintain a
high tariff. America, with her scien-
tific production methods, her enormous
factories, and the advantage gained by
having a large market during the
period of stagnation in Europe, will be

Gold is as much a necessity to the
state as daily bread. There is quite
enough gold in the country, but what

bring it to the national bank. A great
quantity of gold lies in jewelry which
is hardly ever worn by it's owners.
Therefore make coins of your orna-
