TO PLACARD DIRTY PREMISES
California City Adopts Unique Plan to
Raise Standard of Cleanliness in
Residences and Business Houses.

The city Of Alameda, Cal, has adopt
ed a unique plan to raise the standard
of cleanliness in residences and busl-
ness houses. In future the sanitary
condition of the various premises is to
be shown by placards bearing the in
scriptions "Clean," "Dirty" or "Filthy."
Those places which do not satisfy the
board of health will be placarded as
dirty or filthy until they comply with
the demands of the authorities.
This action was decided upon by the
board of health, which appointed a
committee to post the placards and to
care for the general health of the city.
The board of health intends to inspect
not only the business houses but also
the private residences Of the city and
to aflix the placards to every house in
the city. Those residences which can
be designated as "clean" will not be
placarGed, but those in which sanitary
conditions are disregarded will be Ges-
ignated as "dirty" OR filthy" until the
house owners remedy the conditions,
upon which the placards will be re-
moved.
AS the board Of health has arbitrary
| powers under the city charter, the nla-
cards must remain on the houses or
places of business until the board is
satisfied that the conditions therein
are sanitary. If any householder tears
down the placards, the extreme pen
atty Of the law can be enforced.

MOTORTRUCK ROAD ARRIVED
First One on Record Being Constructed
Between Los Angeles and Har-
Dor Of San Pedro.

The motortruck road has arrived.
The first one on record is being con-
structed by Los Angeles, Cal. 1t is IL
miles long, and runs from Los Ange-
les to the harbor of San Pedro. 1t is
q 4O-foot width Of waterproof macad-
am, covered with eight inches Of solid
concrete, and with an elastic bituml-
nous "carpet" over the whole.
This roadbed is more durable than
those built merely for pleasure vehicles
or light motortrucks. In construction
and purpose it is sort Of compromise
between the ordinary highway and the
railroad. It provides the kind OF road
needed for the heaviest sort OF haul-
ing, and by segregating the slow, pom
derous truck traffic it benefits the
lighter traffic on other roads.
The innovation is sure to be widely
followed in time, where conditions are
similar. There may be truck roads es-
tablished in all populous communities.
Then we may see steady streams OF
great gas-driven trucks hauling freight
along the established routes, relieving
the pressure of traffic on common high
ways and supplementing the work OF
the railroads. It will be valuable ad-
dition to our transportation systems.-
