WAR IS DECLARED
ON AUTO THIEVES

Tertiary Declares That No Glenn

MAKE EXAMPLE OF CHICAGoAN
Present Wave of Unprecedented crime
Must Be stopped, Members OF
Pardon Board Announce.

OF machines here will very likely be
warm in their commentator of the
boards action.
The announcement came at the close
of the boards three days session at
the penitentiary and after the case of
Joseph Blodgett, 25-year-old Chicago
crook, sentenced TO one TO ten years
for stealing three automobiles, was
reviewed. Blodgett was given the
maximum sentence and must serve
six years and three months for his
crime
1t was then that the stand against
this class of criminals was decided
upon.
Make Penalty Heavy.
I'VE are going to make an example
of all auto thieves sentenced TO pris-
on" said a member Of the board.
THE present unprecedented wave of
auto stealing must be stopped. Thous-
ands of cars are stolen every day.
Most of the offenders are sentenced
under larceny charge to serve from
one to ten years. The board has de-
cided to infict the maximum punish
ment in all cases where we think the
intention to steal is deliberate"
States Attorney Hoyne of Cook
county told the board that Biodgett
has stolen more than 40 autos in Chi
cago. He was convicted for stealing
three.
His methods puzzled police for a
long time. Blodgett would insert an
advertisement in the papers saying
that he had a car to sell cheap al
once. Hewould choose what he thought
was the best answer and meet the
prospective buyer. II he looked all
right Blodgett would make another
appointment, steal car. bring it to
the buyer, receive his money and dis
appear.
After Gang Leaders.
"Blodgett was a professional auto
thief" said the board member. "Of
course, the occasional JOY rider who
takes a mans car for a lark without
his consent, will not receive the pun
ishment meted to the thief, if the car
is returned. It's the boys who make
their living stealing cars we are al
ter"
Blodgett is wanted in Portland, Ore,
for violation of parole He is sus-
pected of stealing automobiles in all
parts of the country.

PHILADELPHIA, Pa, March a.
The four greatest war munitions fac
tories in the world-the Midvale Steel
and Ordnance company, the Reming-
ton Arms company, the Eddystone
Ammunition corporation and the Bald
win Locomotive works, with their
many subsidiaries, stand ready to open
their plants up to the United States

This was announced by Samuel M.
Vauclain, managing director of the
Remington Arms company, and mem
Der of the board of directors of the
Midvale Steel and Ordnance company,
and Alba Johnson of the Baldwin Lo-
comotive works.
At the same time it was acknowl-
edged for the first time that all of
these companies are rushing tremen-
dous orders of rifles, shells, steel cast
ings and ammunition for the United
States government. They were all
placed within the last six weeks since
the Mexican situation and the foreign
relations became more serious than

SUPERVISORS SPLIT ON
FLOOD CONTROL PROBLEM
HOW TO CONFINE SAN GABRIEL
PUZZLES OFFICIALS.
Property Owners Divided as to Proper
Course to Pursue in Placing
River in a Definite
Channel.

LOS ANGELES, March 14-The
perpleXing question of how to control
the flow of turbulent water courses
without subjecting the county to the
danger of suits for heavy damages
was again before the board of super.
visors in connection with the propo-
sition to put in protection works on
the San Gabriel river near Azusa.
During the last heavy storm the
river broke through it's bank between
the county and Santa Fe bridges and
made a new course for itself consid-
erably to the west. Below those
points the river already had two dis
tinct channels and the problem be-
fore the supervisors is how to confine
it to a we'll defined channel.
Property owners along that stream
are divided as to the proper course to
pursue, those on the west desiring the
water thrown to the east, while those
on the east naturally would like to
see it go the other way
County Counsel Hill gave an opin-
ion that the county might with safety
go ahead and close up the banks which
occurred during the last storm and
prevent further flow across country
to- the west, but that any attempt to
put in protection works which would
either divert the waters from their
present channels or accelerate their
flow would be attended with some dan
ger. The Strengthening of the channel
at some point might, he pointed out
be construed by property owners far
ther down as so accelerating the flow
of water as to entitle them to dam
ages.
In the face of this the board is>ad-
mittedly up against difficult PROPOSE
tion. 1t is one, however, that is con-
tinually arising in flood protection
projects.
There is a good deal of difference
of opinion among the members of the
board as to the policy to be followed
in acquiring rights of way along the
various rivers. Some hold that the
county at this time should merely ac-
quire options from the property own
ers until the board is ready to go
ahead with comprehensive flood con-
troll plan. There also is a question
as to whether the county should be
compelled to pay for these or whether
the property owners, in view of the
protection which will be given their
real estate holdings, should not be re-
quired to donate them. The latter
view seems to be gaining ground
among the members of the board.
The fact remains, however, that the
supervisors still are far from united
on number of the most important
questions relating to the flood control
proposition.

KAISER WILLING TO LOSE
100000 FOR VERDUN

PARIS, March 13.-'I am ready to
sacrifice 100000 men, but I will get
Verdun,' said the Kaiser on February
20.
Every trench expert today points
out that the Kaiser has lost fully this
number of troops in the three weeks
of fighting.
Nobody believes that the battle is
yet ended.
"The fighting will continue as fierce
as ever during the coming week." says
Lieutenant Colonel Rousset, the fore
most French critic.
''The Kaiser will continue to hurl
his best troops against our iron wall,
but unless an entirely unexpected
change occurs, Verdun will remain i'm
pregnable," says Major Civrieux
'The battle is bound to continue for
many long days." says Marcel Hutin.
Germany must fight on to avoid a

CALIFORNIA INSURANCE FUND
INCREASED BY 100000
OVER 100000 REFUND TO GO TO
EMPLOYERS.
State Compensation Insurance Fund
Takes in $685., 5,676.55 in Net
Premiums During the
Past Year.

SACRAMENTO, March 14.-Show-
ing an increase of more than 100000
over the preceding year, the state
compensation insurance fund took in
$655, 5,67655 in net premiums last year
and will refund more than 100000 to
employers of California, according to
c. w. Fellows, the funds manager.
An almost startling feature evidenc-
ing the huge success with which the
fund has been met was revealed when
Mr.. Fellows announced that while the
funds business has shown a 20 per
cent increase, that of the private COM
panies of the state had dropped ap-
proximately 20 per cent.
"The funds business showed a 20
per cent increase in spite of the fact
that it had to overcome a 80 per cent
drop in rates, due to the general rate
readjuStment and more general ap-
plication of the general rating system.
l believe this is sufficient proof that
the legislation creating the fund has
proved to the liking of employers Of
the state. They are cooperating lin
every way with the fund.-
NEARLY every employer is devoting
every effort to safeguard the lives of
his employees. They appreciate the
fact that the fund takes this into con-
sideratiOn in fixing rates in their
plants and also in distributing the re-
fund among those who take out in
surance with the fund. AS a result
the percentage of accidents has been
cut to remarkably small figure when
compared to that of three years ago."
Mr.. Fellows gave the funds net pre-
miums of the year before last as $547,-
161 "a. At that time Is per cent re-
fund amounting to $4,000 was an
nounced. Last years refund will
amount to approximately $4,000 more.

Crrana Troops At Chihuahua Take Up Cry death to the GngOes

hua City as declaring that the Car
rama garrison there has taken up the
cry of Death to the Gringoes."
Officials Defy Americans
Carranza officials are declared to
have openly stated that American
troops will not be permitted to pass
through the town.
The impression that the movement
to get Villa means Intervention has
spread to congress- At the capital
the determination exists to stand by
the president whatever comes. By
many of the senators and representa-
tives the feeling has long existed that
Intervention in Mexico is inevitable.
Track Repairs Needed
Americans acquainted with the con-
dition of the railroad from Juarez to
the colonies assert that it is in no
condition for a quick movement of
trains carrying either American or
Mexican troops. In the event of NOV
ing American troops over the line, the
engineering corps would be forced to
repair the track and infantry would
have to be left at various points to
guarantee communication, it is assert
ed. Just how long it will take the re-
Inducements of General Cara to get
to Casas Grandes and take the field
against Villa or give the Mormons pro-
lection is problematical if these troops
leave Juarez, which American soldiers
do not expect them to do. The move
ment of CarranZa troops toward the
border is looked upon with suspicion
by American officers and American
citizens generally. A report arriving
here says that 100 Carranza troops
from Hermosillo, capital of Sonora,
had been rushed to Aqua Prieta, op-
.posite Douglas, and Naco, opposite
Naco, Arizona.
Car Shortage Delays
With the administration still hold
ing publicly to the view that the ex-
pedition is nothing more serious than
pursuit of an outlaw, the war depart
ment is compelled to rely on the cour-
tesy of the railroad for spare cars, no
interruption being made by the roads
in regular passenger service. Should
the government accept the view that
Intervention is to be undertaken sec
tion two of the act of congress ap-
proved June 20, 1906, could be invoked
to meet the situation, it being pro-
vided in this law that Gin the event Of
war; or threatened war;" the army can
force the railroads to give the needed
service irrespective of regular busi-
ness.
